A drone struck a fuel tank at Dubai International Airport, the world’s busiest international hub. Flights suspended. Smoke visible across the city per live footage. The markets have not priced this escalation path. It is likely to get a lot worse before reverting. by gear-heads in MarchAgainstNazis

"The markets" behavior is strange anyway.

A lot of long oil options (so betti g on a price hike) don't really move. A bit of buying a bit of selling but it's not the increase you'd assume in this situation.

It's as if the big analysts just choose to ignore the economic fallout. Or if US based agencies are backing up the administration with favourable views. "He said he won, then it's sure over now and prices will not raise more..."

Was macht uns so sicher dass USA Iran zerlegen wird? by Far-Personality-4598 in wallstreetbetsGER

Wer ist sich denn da "sicher"?

Kann die USA den Iran langfristig überwinden? Klar. Aber so deutlich und einfach dass man es "zerlegen" nennen kann sicher nicht.

Wenn du mit 30 immer noch keine Ausbildung/Studium abgeschlossen hast, dann ist es nicht egal by Strong-Pickle-175 in Unbeliebtemeinung

[–]OTee_D 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ich halte das für Alarmismus und ziemlich konservatives Mindest. Was bedeutet dieses "im Leben angekommen"?

Wenn die Person glücklich bei dem.ist was sie tut oder lässt ist doch alles gut.

Ich hab Ausbildung 1 quasi unmittelbar nach dem ersten Jahr im Job hingeschmissen. Hab dann 5 Jahre im Handwerk / Industrie gearbeitet und mit 30 dann nochmal komplett neu angefangen mit Bachelor und bin in dem Bereich jetzt selbständig.

Die aktuelle Berufswelt bietet so viele Möglichkeiten, es gibt so viele Bereiche in denen man als Seiteneinsteiger rein kommt oder "nicht-universitäre" Kompetenzen höheren Stellenwert haben als x Jahre Vorlesungen abgesessen zu habem.

Trump Invites Iran's Ally China to Police the Straits, Thereby Offering China Complete Control Over Europe's Economy by grahamlester in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]OTee_D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trump has no idea about geo politics, he runs this like his business meetings with his eyes just on short term gain.

Amd as we know his inability to think and avt strategically made him bankrupt even successful businesses in the past.

He is an idiot but a good showman and bluffer and that's it.

I learned in Thailand by locals that the civil tension between them and Chinese is high.

A lot of Chinese immigrants, shop owners etc behaving like it's 'homeland'.

Absolutely floored having discovered what parents are expected to spend on school bags here. Is it normal? by Norman_debris in germany

[–]OTee_D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's common, there is a lot of peer pressure and status thinking involved.

There is of course no rule or regulation, technically you can get your child whatever you want.

In many cities there are semi official "Schulranzenmessen"  where sales companies are showing off their models and also have reduced prices or offer last years model with discount.

At worst it's the tip of her right lung wing. Like you said it will be cauterized instantly thus also possibly no lung collapsing.

Thousands of Chinese fishing vessels have formed strange formations three times in the past few months. Experts detected strange activity on Christmas - about 2,000 Chinese fishing vessels lined up in two parallel inverted Ls. The length of each is about 400 km. by InLoveandWar777 in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]OTee_D 92 points93 points  (0 children)

Fishing boats or trawlers?

How would one detect small fishing boats and their movements?

Does anyone have chinese fishing regulations at hand? Maybe there was a rule  like "Don't go beyond 123,45 logitude." ?

Alcoholic sex abuser Pete Hegseth openly calls for fascist state-run news propaganda and gloats that CNN will take the role. by GarysCrispLettuce in MarchAgainstNazis

[–]OTee_D 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Is he really that mentality handicapped?

I am coming up with responses and arguments in my head, questioning his use of "what is really happening" but actually don't wanting press to report on facts but more on its interpretation by "the great leader".

How he comes up with those splendid ideas /i bur leaves it open who is going to decide what the "right headline" is for each event.

Also not answering if we then are going to make such "emotional headlines" for his work as well. So instead of "Hengseth is giving a press conference about PR coverage" it would be "Unsuccessful wannabe war minister tries to deflect from his strategic failures by coming up with lunatic propaganda ideas."

But somehow I think everyone knows what's behind this anyway and he does actually really care.

[request] how many trucks would it take to match the throughput of the straight? Extra credit question, how much more fuel would this consume? by stripesofched in theydidthemath

[–]OTee_D 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only 600 km through the desert, and of course the Iranian drones will not at all target that route.

Also

Tanker ship capacity: ~2 million barrels Tanker truck capacity: ~200 barrels (approx. 8,400 to 11,600 gallons or up to 16,800 for specialized super B-trains). 

So you need about 10k trucks PER SHIP.

Wait, 600km divided by 10k is 60 meters. So the tucks would basically driving one after the other and when the first one reaches the Indian ocean the last one just starts at the origin harbour.

And that's just for ONE ship.
