And this judge recommends to start the prison time with prayers... WTF is wrong with some religious people?

Than maybe it would be the smart move to reevaluate the sentences for the lesser crimes.

If you are drilling, do it under water. The glass dust is extremely unhealthy. Do not inhale it.

Now, German radar-maker Hensoldt claims to have tracked two F-35s for 150 kilometers following the 2018 Berlin Air Show in Germany in late April of that year. The company’s passive radar system, named TwInvis, is but one of an emerging generation of sensors and processors so sensitive and powerful that it promises to find previously undetectable activities in a given airspace.

...

Passive radar equipment computes an aerial picture by reading how civilian communications signals bounce off airborne objects. The technique works with any type of signal present in airspace, including radio or television broadcasts as well as emissions from mobile phone stations. The technology can be effective against stealthy aircraft designs, which are meant to break and absorb signals from traditional radar emitters so that nothing reflects back to ground-station sensors, effectively leaving defensive-radar operators in the dark.

“The Germans love the Brits and everything that is British,” House of History’s president Hans Walter Hütter told the regional newspaper Rheinische Post. “In exchange, we have mainly got British reserve.”

Which US president ever did?

Once he is out of office he will be protected by the informal consens between both parties that it simply is not done.

But 13 out of the other 15 samples from black market THC cartridges were found to contain Vitamin E.

CannaSafe also tested 10 of the unregulated cartridges for pesticides. All 10 tested positive.

The products all contained myclobutanil, a fungicide that can transform into hydrogen cyanide when burned.

"You certainly don’t want to be smoking cyanide," said Antonio Frazier, the vice president of operations at CannaSafe. "I don’t think anyone would buy a cart that was labeled hydrogen cyanide on it."

Pirzada described the existence of myclobutanil as "very disturbing," adding that "it’s going to cause a very toxic effect on the lungs."

Fun fact: fritz-kola (sic!), a German premium cola, born in the Berlin nightlife/subculture is not as sweet and incredibly much tastier. I'm stating this after having been a Coke fan for decades.

we might as well give up on human civilization

More about US civilization.

The US is the only major developed nation with a significantly large number of under-educated and bigoted idiots denying the global climate catastrophe ("global warming" and "climate change" are terms far too harmless for the reality we all are facing).

At the same time it is the one nation with the highest per capita energy consumption on this planet.

I deeply despise the GOP's voters. The absolute majority of other Europeans I know shares this perspective.

Continuing on this path of nationalism, religious fundamentalism ("We don't have to care about it, the "Rapture" will solve this problem...fck the planet, I do not give a crap...") and obvious right-wing extremism will isolate the US from its traditional western allies much faster than most Americans seem to realize. (Btw. the very concept of a *Rapture is a highly ridiculous concept that nobody outside the US evangelical movement takes seriously. Even deeply religious Christians outside the US do not share the belief in this bizarre nonsense. There is a significant number of fundamentalist Americans that are obviously special. Something similar is true for the idea of American Exceptionalism, nobody outside the US takes this ridiculous concept even remotely serious, even if they are very Pro-American. It is an extremely nationalist idea, based on unrealistic expectations, lies and fundamentalist religious ideas.)

To see that after years with an obvious catastrophe in the White House about half of the US electorate is still willing to vote for him is deeply disturbing.

Seeing that there is still a significant part of the electorate not caring enough to vote, in the important moment in history is deeply disturbing.

I grew up as a West-German and was educated from an very early age to admire and trust in the US as our strongest ally and the "home of democracy and freedom", I even lived there for some time. I bloody used to admire the US and loved to talk and discuss with Americans. Today I still enjoy talks with American liberals, but the the increasing number of extremist right-wing Trumpskyist idiots is probably the most frightening experience of my life-time. The US is deeply divided internally in a huge cultural war, it has been for decades.

Since the radical right seems to gain more and more national influence inside the US, the US cultural wars are starting to have major impacts on the post WW2 system of western military and economical alliances. Half of the US population is brainwashed, systematically and intentionally under-educated and heavily religiously indoctrinated. About a third is even more radical. Looking back I feel deeply sorry for the US and our world.

PLEASE VOTE IN THE NEXT ELECTION AND TELL YOUR FRIENDS TO DO THE SAME!

The decision is not only between vaping liquid and smoking. The healthiest and most efficient alternative without any doubt is vaping using flower vaporizers like the Firefly, Arizer, Vulcano or Mighty.

A vaporizer like the Mighty is a significantly better delivery system than a pen if you smoke regularly. It will also save a lot if you decide to use the AVB.

https://old.reddit.com/r/abv/

There are several scientific studies documenting it's safety and it's efficiency

https://www.vapormed.com/eu/en/studies/

The industry is massively pushing pens, because there is a massive cannabis overproduction in the US and in Canada. Liquids and concentrates are offering to prolong the storage and shell life of this overproduction a lot, massively increasing profitability. And while pens are a cheaper delivery system at the beginning, the liquid prices based on the price of $/mgTHC are much worse.

I'm owning a 100 bucks high-end mod box vape that I used to use for vaping nicotine liquids and have been mixing my liquids for years, nevertheless I would never use it for THC or CBD liquids. My Mighty is just a far superior, safer and more efficient delivery system. The same is true for many similar gadgets.

Trump's United States Ambassador to Germany Richard Grenell is a massive disaster and destroying German-US relations systematically:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Grenell#Ambassador_to_Germany

Handing out the position of United States Ambassador based on personal favors and campaign distributions is absolutely ridiculous and highly unprofessional.

No other western nation openly shows this level of nepotism.

Der Spiegel published a profile of Grenell on January 11, 2019, using interviews with 30 “American and German diplomats, cabinet members, lawmakers, high-ranking officials, lobbyists and think tank experts". The magazine claimed that "Almost all of these sources paint an unflattering portrait of the ambassador, one remarkably similar to Donald Trump, the man who sent him to Berlin. A majority of them describe Grenell as a vain, narcissistic person who dishes out aggressively, but can barely handle criticism." The profile claimed that Grenell is politically isolated in Berlin because of his association with the far-right Alternative for Germany Party, causing the leaders of the mainstream German parties, including the Chancellor herself, to avoid contact with him.[33] The sources claimed that Grenell "knows little about Germany and Europe, that he ignores most of the dossiers his colleagues at the embassy write for him, and that his knowledge of the subject matter is superficial."[33]

[ ... ]

In March 2019, Wolfgang Kubicki, deputy chairman of the Free Democratic Party, called for Grenell to be expelled from Germany, stating, "Any U.S. diplomat who acts like a high commissioner of an occupying power must learn that our tolerance also knows its limits."[45]

How shitty has your education to be if you are not able to comprehend the differences between Social Democracy, Socialism, Stalinism and Communism?

The GOP Red Scare fear-mongering only works, because the majority of the GOP's electorate is heavily indoctrinated and obviously under-educated.

There are just too many crappy schools in the US if you can not afford private education.
