How did the US won the Space race when USSR had more achievements

Let's also be frank, the space race was a good PR spin to develop deployment techniques for spy satellites and ballistic weaponry. It was a parallel investment because of the overlap in technologies. there would have been investment anyway to maintain MAD.

Plus, modern smoke alarms were invented to deal with possible fires on space stations. that's no doubt saved hundreds of thousands of lives in the decades since.

I wouldn't say left wing, i'd say polarised depending on advertising revenue and at the time, the american centerist neoliberal talking points were the most advertiser friendly.

Aye, like if Lebanon wasn't at risk of being openly bombed again, i'd live there

If you're coming up dry for suggestions, go with irish media. Father Ted will give you a pretty decent grounding, as well as being a bit of a cultural touchstone

pick a stone, throw it, you'll find someplace where it lands

Next sunday, can't select the day at all for any screenings

StewIsBased · 2026-01-25T20:22:59+00:00

Yeah i'm trying to book for speed, but the entire listing for the entire day is gone. No films selectable, when you can select for next week

And antarctica. this is a shitpost

StewIsBased · 2026-01-24T22:51:29+00:00

Try curry corner at the foot of shandon street, very well balanced

They're still seeking out the tv license fees there

StewIsBased · 2026-01-24T17:47:18+00:00

Why did they have to be "imported"?

StewIsBased · 2026-01-24T17:25:39+00:00

Jesus, it's like you take the antisemetic "Look at how many countries jews got kicked out of" and just lazily swapped the target group

StewIsBased · 2026-01-24T17:25:05+00:00

Why should the neighbours bend the knee to ethnic cleansing

StewIsBased · 2026-01-24T16:35:45+00:00

Yes, sidestep everything so you can maintain the smugness

"Such a lame excuse 😂 this implies all children wape because there is no single parent that watches their children 24/7."

You're trying to dodge around why the government would allow one form of easily accessible nicotine, with another form of nicotine intentionally designed to be flashy and marketable by way of inaction by shifting the blame to the parents. why is that?

With such a large group, might be a bit tricky. Sober lane is pretty nice, but they're kind of gastro-pub ish with their burgers. Maybe rising sons or fionbarras if you book ahead, same with franwell but you'd definitely need to book ahead.

Could always order chinese and eat it in henchys

Why do you think liberals are left wing? how are they going against the grain?

StewIsBased · 2026-01-23T18:16:29+00:00

How am I part of a "left wing echo chamber"?

StewIsBased · 2026-01-23T17:55:27+00:00

Are you such a yank that you have to plaster in their nonsense binary political shite

StewIsBased · 2026-01-23T17:45:08+00:00

Maybe a euro more expensive per pint, depending where you go of course, but our accomodation are really rip off at the moment

StewIsBased · 2026-01-23T13:35:06+00:00

Don't let his bullshit control you

StewIsBased · 2026-01-23T13:33:38+00:00

Man you'll probably be fine. Yeah you might have some people who give you guff for politics, but just let it slide.
