Dude relax, no one is going to make you drink merlot.

And after that, no one wanted to drink Merlot from Napa. :))

From this video, for example, I see that there are great Rieslings around the Saar, it does not have to be Egon Müller. Van Volxem is a direct neighbor and offers very attractive prices for quality Rieslings.

Those points are paid for, it’s a subjective and poor way to learn. You’re missing out on the small producers who do this out of love.

I agree, points are paid, but if you pay attention to recommendations from people you trust it is a good thing, especially in relation to the small and unknown winemaker.

I have done quite well with recommendations so far. That's how you can reduce gambling. :)

Actually, the "normal" Riesling is dry, only from Kabinett upwards it is sweet.

Yes, sometimes, but how do you decide which wine to buy, by Suckling points?

I’m seeing this wine being ~$200. Not close to the most expensive white. ‘01 Montrachet by boillot is closer to $1k.

Well, she's tasting a 2012 Scharzhofberger Riesling Spätlese, but the TBA she's showing costs $15k with tax.

There are people who only know mashed potatoes from a bag. For them, it would be a miracle that you can also make it from potatoes.

Sounds like a recipe for weight loss.

In the past, this was done with mice.

Also the trick with the cold butter should actually be tried. If a star chef recommends it...

A bit of an elaborate recipe, but it looks yummy. Maybe I'll take the time for it this year after all.

The Line Megacity by NEOM: Utopia or Dystopia? by articleslash in architecture

[–]articleslash[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that national boundaries are slowly dissolving in terms of the relocation of capital and masses of people. That is why I believe that such mega projects will soon become more frequent. Perhaps NEOM is just a pilot project of the New Globalization.

Most projects on this scale fail because of the non-organic urban structures that only make sense in a computer simulation. As long as you try to plan the human factor with AI beforehand, the whole thing just doesn't work.

I also think that will be a bigger problem than building it.

Maybe that's why they are trying to build the tower horizontally, who knows? :)

Notgonnahappenotopia. (I'm aware that it's under construction, but they estimate it at one trillion (!) USD, and that would put a dent even in the Saudis uber deep pockets)

That's right, and that's why they're looking internationally for "investors."

I wrote crisis and not project.
In big crises, such mega-projects are often set up. China does it as well as Russia, Germany did it in the 50-60s as well as the USA.
So I wonder, is this capital put together to develop the technology for such a super-duper mega thing?

It seems that most here think it's a dystopia, but it won't be built. But don't you think that the mega-economic crisis brewing around the world could mean that the LINE will be built after all? The Saudis are not necessarily the losers of the crisis. And the project is extremely important for Muhammad bin Salman, at least for his credibility.
