Yup. War is possibly favourable for America, since military is one of the only advantages they have left.
China would love to flex their muscles to get better economic deals. But China is playing the long game better, and they only need to wait it out.

What's crazy is America still won't green their grid. China is building renewables like crazy, and has plans to switch over eventually, whereas America does not.
There is a very real possibility that sometime in the future America won't be able to keep the power on, but China will.
All thanks to short term thinking, and infrastructure not being profitable according to capitalism.

Loads of dudes get cleaned out after a divorce. Nothing will make you hate more than losing half your stuff.

A rabbi is ashamed of his lawyer, brother who does not practice his faith. All he does is work, and is obsessed with money. The rabbi decides that the best way to fix this is to bring him on a spiritual journey. Since the rabbi doesn't drive, he calls a taxi, and along come Piyush to pick them up. They drive for a few hours, finally leaving the city when the car breaks down...

Reply to ELI5: How exactly does pirating work for video games and software? (Read desc) by DryEstablishment2
You remove the tiny portion of code protecting it, or find some sort of work around. Like the only thing keeping your house safe is the lock on the door. So you can turn the exe to code, find the lock, and remove it. Turn the code back to an exe, and voila!

There is a bubble of space created by our star. The radiation pressure from the sun is countering something else outside. My guess is they finally got out with one of the probes and got a picture looking in.

It's just a convention we agreed upon. But I prefer not to rely on it, especially while programming. Use parentheses to make things clear. Write (a * b) + c. Not a * b + c.

200 lb draw weight was quite common. Skeletons of archers were are deformed from pulling a heavy bow back over and over again. When the arrow hits an apple it explodes.

It's been scientifically proven that geothermal causes earthquakes, so why not.

Yup, and calling people mentally ill for wanting to climb in life. "You were born a slave, you will live as a slave, and die a slave. Now get back to work."
