China installed mora solar than the US has in 2025. They're currently building 35 or so new reactors, at paces nobody else can. This will change quickly.

I mean would you let your non coding coke head brainwormed manager challenge your coding choices? He is not a doctor or scientist, why would we listen to him. And any experts relying on using are horse dewormer grifters or worse.

Oh great he's doing it now after causing fear and doubt about them for decades, getting many people killed, in Samoa for example.

Did you try form black rust/magnetite rather than doing typical cast iron seasoning?

I get good tortillas on induction.

Can char pepper in the oven.

Can also get a portable gas stove.

Yeah those exist, meant regular induction cooktop. Still ok for most wok dishes if you cook on batches. Regular gas stoves aren't really powerful enough for proper woking anyway, so an induction wok shaped one might actually be better for most home users.

Still easy to manage, quick wipe with a paper towel, but rarely need to do even that.

Induction is as good or better for everything except a wok.

I'd say that using a manual espresso machine and getting good tasting coffee from light roasted beans is vastly harder than making a good steak.

New comment by Hikikomori in "U.S. used 'virtually all' of its long-range precision missiles during Iran war"

>Iran was funding terror attacks on Israel (and has been for decades) which for all its many faults is a liberal democracy which grants citizenship to millions of Palestinians who get to vote. Trump is a moron who picked a fight he could not possibly win, but fundamentally this was not a war that got declared out of the blue.

Iran had a democratically elected government that the US helped overthrow and that is why the current regime is in power.

Before Iraq 1 it was the most modern middle eastern state, US deliberately destroyed civilian infrastructure. This was after propping up Saddam as a dictator for two decades as they fought Iran, also selling chemical weapons precursors to Iraq while knowing they would create those weapons.

Iraq 2 was a lot more than that. Prime example of blowback as it led to ISIS.

US carpet bombed north korea and killed 20% of its population, looked the other way as south Korea executed civilians. Then it turned into a military dictatorship for decades. This is not the win you think it is even if turned out okay decades later.

While the US, or more correctly the UN, has done some peace keeping missions with decent results it pales in comparison to the chaos the US has created. From overthrowing democracies, installing and supporting dictators and terrorist groups, ignoring and fueling genocides, etc.

Americas superpower is its ability to ignore its own hypocrisy, and you certainly embody that with a hefty sprinkle of willful ignorance.

Thus better be advanced trolling. How could anyone be so ignorant of Americas history. Embarrassing.
