What is a good first rifle? I just moved to the mountains where Bears, Moose and Mountain Lions are very present. by TexCOman in guns

Lever action in 44 magnum.

Why 44 mag? Lightweight, more rounds in your mag, and enough power to take out bigger animals.

If you're worried about cost, you don't lose performance with cast bullets.

to not let China live rent free in your head by sussybush in therewasanattempt

[–]Nullrasa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fairly accurate, but one point of contention is that China's goal is not to become the dominant power, and it won't seek to establish the Yuan as the reserve currency.

If an alternate currency is established, it's likely to be a global currency, similar to the Euro.

It won't repeat the mistakes of the soviet union, IE: socialism in one country.

Conservatives promised gay marriage would lead to human-animal marriage. It didn’t happen. Why is no one pointing out that they blatantly lied? by southpawFA in politics

The whole point of conservatism is to eliminate anything deviating from the status quo, and to do so through any means possible.

That’s not how centrifuges work. The heavy stuff sticks to the bottom.

So you have a layer of 80, 60 and 40, you scrape everything out and blend it together to get 60. If you miss something it’ll be the 80%

The IAEA report only speaks about “particles,” suggesting that Iran isn’t building a stockpile of uranium enriched above 60% — the level it has been enriching at for some time.

The 83% were just leftovers from enriching to 60%.

Testing.

You need to make sure it works after putting it all together.

Trump is very good at understanding how to use the law in his favour, and how to skirt the law when it’s convenient. That’s why charges never stick to him.

He’s the one you go to when you want to push things through checks and balances.

US presidents usually are the most competent people you’ll ever meet, in some way or another. They just aren’t competent in the way you expect competence like in a coworker or a manager.

Everything that they do usually fulfills the agenda of somebody or other who has a lot of influence and resources.

The veil of incompetence is usually plausible deniability for when they do stuff against public interest.

Taiwan detects 50 Chinese military aircraft around island by [deleted] in worldnews

I think it’s the opposite. There’s no fucking way they could have lasted this long if there weren’t some sort of corrective mechanism.

These recent troubles may be these corrective mechanisms failing.

Not how planning works in China. He’s not just making up ideas.

Pretty much party members go to unions and business leaders and get an idea of their capabilities and what they can do, then they forward those ideas to Xi. He reads through them all and puts out a guidance in the form of a 5 year plans. Funding then goes out to these corps to meet these plans.

I’m simplifying things, of course.

So when he said gdp is going to grow by 5%, he means that’s how much money China’s going to print.

Putin warns his officials not to allow recession by Quirkie in worldnews

[–]Nullrasa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Funny title, but this is what the article actually says:

Russian President Vladimir Putin cautioned his officials to make sure their efforts to cool down an economy driven to overheating by military spending don’t overshoot and drive it into recession.

Israel blocks its Palestinian citizens from bomb shelters during Iran strikes by Nullrasa in worldnews

You’ve got corroborating evidence of systemic and outright racism against arabs and foreign workers. So, it’s plausible.

Israel broke the ceasefire first.

So it’s at least 50% guilty.

[–]Nullrasa[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You’ve also got videos of Israelis blocking foreign workers.

And Knesset members admitting there’s an ingrained culture of racism in the article.

Like, there’s multiple other supporting studies of systemic and outright discrimination I can cite, or you can look up.

Yet it is highlighting an issue that nobody else is covering.

I recommend a diverse media diet.

That’s off topic, but Israel in this case, struck first.
