The investigation revealed that when the chair was adjusted by the passenger it crushed and badly damaged the phone’s battery which caused smoke, flames and fumes.

So the proper title would be: "Passenger crushed mobile phone battery using aircraft seat, caused a fire on passenger plane"

Holy shit, 1st I thought what a shame, they missed. Maybe they do a 2nd strike?

But then the drone lights up, with seemingly 2 guys working at the drone? So I think one dropped right at the drone and the body caught fire? With the other one dragging his body using his arms across the ground, away from the fire.

The area of effect of such a strike is surprisingly huge.

In a way kinda. It's problematic though that China is using Uyghur forced labour to produce cheap solar panels.

This of course allows them to undercut any other manufacturer, driving them out of the market. So the delivery chain is getting kinda small and the products have forced labour attached to them.

Why Vladimir Putin Is Embracing every country’s Far Right

Because they are siding with him.

And in 2024 there is the upcoming presidential election in the USA, where Russia certainly will try to influence the elections (again) and side with the far right, too.

As per this article:

Cargo shipping is responsible for nearly 3 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions

With the amount of cargo moved per ship, sending a product around the globe generates only a fraction of the CO2 in the product lifecycle compared to final truck transport inland. Which again is less than the final car transport to pick up the product at a store and bring it home.

So even producing locally, would still have the same major CO2 factors: Inland truck and car.

Global shipping isn't too bad and the companies want to make their ships more efficient anyway. Fuel is a major cost factor for shipping lines, so to please investors and fill their own pockets, reducing fuel and thereby CO2 is already a necessity. Ships get more advanced hulls, larger cargo holds, more efficient engines with each new generation. It's on a good path on its own.

On a side note, I'm not a fan of calling technology or energy 'clean' or 'green'. We've already seen discussions about clean goal or here we have green methanol. There is just no definition or norm to it, besides being a colour of certain wavelength. No energy form at all is green or clean, but they can be low-CO2 or renewable.

Lap 69 and HAM is increasing the gap to the hard LEC behind him.

Verstappen was complaining about his mediums even before lap 20. So those guys with used medium tyres now might be forced to stop soon after the restart, losing lots of positions due to tight traffic.

I am not sure, do you think so, question?

How does the DRS detection work with the 3 zones but only 2 mentioned detection spots?

I already checked a different circuit map and it's the same there with 2-3.

It's a miracle! I guess grenades can now be supplied to Ukraine as humanitarian aid.

I think you misunderstood the title. Iran did not attack anyone, it's militants in Syria who launched attacks and where the USA did already strike back.

And if you want to argue that supporting parties in a conflict should allow airstrikes on the supporting country, that argument is a dangerous double-edged sword. As then your argument would open up strikes on western countries who support parties in a foreign conflict as well. E.g. that argument would fit into Russia's narrative of the war, claiming all the west is fighting against them in Ukraine.
