Another report on $ADUR which is based on price levels of Naphtha and the results of the NPG plant. The assumptions are $500 for processing 1ton of plastic and 30% licensing fee on gross margin. I believe the $500 is too high, but the numbers can be corrected any time. The license fees on upgrading oil qualities are low, but nevertheless give great results. Upgrading oil can give a great upside for oil producers. The worst case is $20 to $30. But the cost of upgrading isn't known. If you discover problems, pls do a response. #adur #recycling filebin.net/wmnhe6t9bqccd3ey

Die Frage nach der Legalität ist uninteressant, wenn ein Staat seine eigenen Gesetze als Hinderniss betrachtet. Wenn Genozid implizit propagiert wird, dann hört der Spass auf.
Ob ich den Tag noch erlebe, an dem endlich mal die Prämisse der „illegalen Siedlungen“ fällt? Ich rede nicht von „Siedlergewalt“. Sondern davon, dass ich mich bis heute frage, was „illegal“ an den „Siedlungen“ ist. Erklären konnte mir das noch niemand. Es ist eine politisch eingefahrene Prämisse. Sie wird nie hinterfragt. Ich siedle übrigens „illegal“ im Osten. tagesspiegel.de/internationa…

A massive effort to sequence the DNA of Vikings across Europe was published in 2020. The study revealed family histories of Vikings who set forth—and died—far from home. Learn more: scim.ag/4eEBSzu #ScienceMagArchives

The issue with a lack of housing is not one of a lack of capability, it was never meant to build housing that doesn't create a minimum profit
The two best statistics in the WSJ’s genuinely great article on North Korea’s economic boom: Pyongyang built more housing last year than LA. (Says something about CA housing dysfunction). North Korea assembled more cellphones than the USA. (Assuming the #s are true!)

I made an analysis about $ADUR . I believe the analysis gives a good and short overview about the upsides and risks and makes a simple comparison with pyrolysis and mechanical recycling. The file was produced by an AI with my string guidance, which is always necessary. You will find no hype and conservative numbers. Don't forget the download button . The online reader is atrocious. I have invested into $ADUR and this report does not constitute investment advice! limewire.com/d/nFUgR#vjQPUuK…

Dear US government, Since you've just blocked Fable and Mythos on critical national security grounds, here are some other tools that pose a similar threat to the American people: - Microsoft Teams - SAP - Salesforce - Jira - Outlook Please do what you must to save America 🇺🇸
‼️🚨 BREAKING: Amazon researchers snitched to the US government about jailbreaking Fable 5 and Mythos 5, forcing Anthropic to immediately shut down worldwide access. A security export control directive from Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick enforced the action. Anthropic is fighting the directive and calls it a misunderstanding. This isn't the first clash. The Trump administration had already tried to get Anthropic to pause the release of its latest models before this directive landed.

The Dutch mobility system isn't just built around cycling. It's built around bike-train intermodality: the bike solves the train's convenience problem and the train solves the bike's range problem. Together they offer an attractive alternative to driving: youtu.be/jq93DgLvmFc

This paper discusses the environment in which China became the worlds manufacturer for electric vehicles. The thesis is Beijing wasn't the driver, but cities and regions. That is a small surprise, but considering the size of China quite rational, because it's hard to organize a centralized government. The author has bypassed the University of Chicago and put the paper on Square Space. Save the document. #EV #china #history static1.squarespace.com/stat…

Dieser Journalist spricht von Identitätsbedrohung, wenn eine organisierte Rechte einen Anlass konstruiert und mit Brandstiftungen klarmacht, dass sie gewillt sich auch anders durchzusetzen. Deutsches Mitläufertum
Im Pulverfass #Belfast mischt sich das alte Gefühl von Identitätsbedrohung mit neuer Asylmigration und unzureichender politischer Aufrichtigkeit. Nichts davon kann eine Entschuldigung sein für die Gewaltorgie, die die Stadt gerade erschüttert. Aber umgekehrt kann die Gewalt auch keine Entschuldigung dafür sein, die Debatte über die tieferen Gründe zu verweigern, die die alte Bürgerkriegsregion gerade in eine neue Unruheprovinz verwandeln. zeit.de/politik/ausland/2026…

Pakistan's water dependence on the Indus is threatened by India. The Indus system irrigates 80% of Pakistan's farmland, generates a third of its electricity, supplies its major cities with drinking water, and sustains the livelihoods of some 240 million people. India constructs a canal to divert the water. aljazeera.com/news/2025/6/22…

Readers of the thread are confused because the don't realize Politico is owned by a German corp. Politico is creating a constructed opposition between France and Germany. The conflict of interest exists in reality when both argued about leadership in the project and former diplomats like Gerad Araud put fuel into the discussion. So both countries discussing with national primary in mind
For decades, France has held the psychological advantage over Germany in defense. Now the balance is changing. 🔗 politico.eu/article/germany-…

This hasn’t gone viral the way it should. Jamie Corry, an Irish lad from east Belfast, has lost his home of 13 years after masked rioters set fire to cars outside and it engulfed his house in last night’s violent chaos. He stood right there and begged one of them: “This is my house. This is my house.” They didn’t care. They burned it anyway. “They’ve done it to one of their own.” These racist, uneducated thugs and street urchins destroy everything in their path. They don’t care who gets hurt: locals, families, their own community. Just mindless arsonists ruining innocent lives with no excuse.

The largest Viking ever found . 99% of all coins were Arabic Dirhams. I recommend "Riverkings" by Cat Jarman for an exciting read into trading at that time. #viking #treasure #islam youtu.be/SdNQopTyApA

The antisemitic dictator Erdoğan – who is committing genocide against the Kurds, supports the Hamas terrorist organization, oppresses his own people and imprisons political rivals – is the last person who can lecture the State of Israel on morality. The State of Israel and the IDF, the most moral army in the world, will continue to take forceful action against Iran and its proxies, which threaten the Middle East and the entire world.
