The US is the inventor of Banana Republics.
And yes very much so. White Supremacism and American Exceptionalism are both deeply ingrained in the US political system and most of its actors.

Meanwhile otters and dolphins are raping baby seals for fun.
I wonder if in like a million years or so we get to see MOs or even higher order organisms that will have conquered the asphalt wastelands as a new habitat. Or whatever remains of the asphalt wastelands when they aren't maintained by humans anymore.
Also i would expect banks to use some sort of 2FA where you have to manually confirm any transaction on your mobile device, or enter a code generated from there into your computer.
I remember an article from last year or so that German washing machines ended up being sold to Russia through Kazakhstan and other places where they stripped the microchips to repurpose them in their missiles.
Do people take their waste to a football match and burn it there?
Zusammenfassung: Einem Kulturzentrum für die besonders vulnerablen queeren migrantischen Communities in Berlin wird die Förderung versagt, weil diese nicht 100% auf Linie der "Staatsräson" sein sollen.
Eine interne Prüfung des Kultursenats ergibt, dass es keine Sachgrundlage für ein Ende der Förderung gibt. Weder sind die kritisierten Veranstaltungen und social media Interaktionen antisemitisch, noch verstoßen sie gegen die entsprechenden Richtlinien des Senats, noch sind sie strafrechtlich relevant.
Um das Kulturzentrum dennoch zerstören zu können, wird eine Strategie entwickelt, durch kurzfristige Anpassungen am Haushalt einen bürokratischen Formgrund zu erschaffen. Die nach Einschätzung der internen Prüfung besonders gefährdeten Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter werden von einem Monat auf den anderen auf die Straße gesetzt.
Die internen Bedenken, dass ein offensichtlicher Zusammenhang zu den legitimen Veranstaltungen und social Media Interaktionen besteht, und dies einen Angriff auf die Kunst- und Meinungsfreiheit durch die Berliner Regierung darstellt, wird ignoriert.
Die Botschaft ist klar: Der Schutz und die Förderung der queeren, migrantischen und anderen marginalisierten Communities wird nur soweit gewährt, wie diese zur Legitimation der aktuellen Landesregierung dienen. Nicht das Vertreten der Werte des Grundgesetzes, sondern die Höhrigkeit zur Regierung sind der Maßstab, insbesondere dann, wenn die Regierung selbst sich gegen die Werte des Grundgesetzes stellt.
Food is also consumption. But without food people die, so this consumption directly contributes to keeping the value of the economy up by keeping the workforce alive.
As for the poo safely removing it in WWTPs also costs more money than what can be recovered in energy or hopefully phosphate in the near future. Also the capital investments are significant and as they age and need replacement this value is also gone.
However the alternative is people dying of Cholera and other shitty diseases en masse, so both the investments as well as the expenditures are well spent.
Again looking at the map of Germany as well as the article from the BBC stating an increase of Microplastic by over 1000% compared to the baseline shows that fireworks are a very strong additional pollutant.
People in the US drive their cars all the time. During rush hour more cars are emitting in traffic jams than are driving to a football match. Yet we see these huge spikes in pollution when there is fireworks.
Think about it: Everything form a firewokr that does not turn into CO2 will stay dispersed in the air or fall down as debris. This is most of it, as the op pointed out himself the GHGs to be only a small part. Meanwhile for cars the vast vast vast majority of its emissions in quantitative terms are CO2 emissions, with particles, NOX and Microplastics being much less. They also pose a massive problem, but because of hundreds of millions of cars on the road every day.
What represents the value of money? What you can buy with it. What determines what you can buy with it? The total capital stock available and the services offered through labor.
This part of the capital stock is gone. Literally into smoke.
Money is not some abstract independent entity. Its value is directly linked to the real production of the real economy.
I had none of these issues and i don't know what you are talking about.
If you install programs through your package manager they come with a start-menu entry just as easily findable as in Windows. If you don't install programs with an installer in Windows you get the same problem.
Also mounting HDDs made its content accessible to all my programs so far, without any issue. I think you must have chosen extremely obscure distros or fucked things up by yourself during install processes.
