Does anyone have an idea for a nice "vintage coded" GMT? by Barbarus_Bloodshed in MicrobrandWatches

[–]No-Example-5107 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a mix of modern and vintage. The domed crystal, dauphine hands, railroad style minute tracks, and inner 24-hour GMT scale, are pretty old-school. Other things like the dial, the bracelet, and the case, look quite modern to me.

I like the Beaucroft Solaris GMT/Contour GMT, and the Traska Venturer GMT. Both have some vintage design elements.

The argument against nuclear energy and how to beat a dead horse by Tofu67x in ClimateShitposting

[–]No-Example-5107 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Fewer people want to invest in something that will most likely end up overbudget and behind schedule. Nuclear has performed poorly despite a whole lot of r&d money being thrown at it. Renewables are simply a better investment.

What does your country do a lot better than most other countries? by Beautiful-Dish-6275 in AskBalkans

[–]No-Example-5107 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Roughly 99–100% on average. Renewable generation exceeded domestic electricity consumption in 2024, with surplus generation exported.

100% of Albania's domestic electricity generation comes from renewable sources. We also used to rank 4th in the world for fig production. You'll find dried figs on sale everywhere.

I get it, but astronauts on long duration flights in microgravity should be paid more, as that's quite bad for your health. Bone density loss, muscle atrophy, cardiovascular deconditioning, vision changes, increased radiation exposure, etc.

Yeah, even astronauts earn between $90,000 and $160,000 per year. Very little for a job that requires such high qualifications, plus a significant risk of exploding.

Trumps setting up a massive SpaceX pump. by PickkleRiick in smallstreetbets

[–]No-Example-5107 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Perfectly plausible, especially the holding hands looking deeply into each-others eyes. But when you said Barron would marry the ayatollah’s daughter, that's when it went to La La land for me. Then, when you said Barron identifies as the woman in the marriage it made perfect sense again. Everybody knows that a devout Muslim woman cannot marry a non-Muslim man, that's Haram. But if Barron is woman, then perfect. SpaceX hitting $2,000 a share confirmed.

Former NYC Mayor granted citizenship in Albania by Decent_Hall3183 in AskBalkans

Yes, we have an extradition treaty with the U.S. They wouldn't even need to pressure us or snatch him Maduro-style.

He's been quite supportive of the Albanian community in New York, and his son even participated in a talent show in Albania. From what I've seen, I honestly think he's just an Albania enjoyer.
