Speaking of Wired's excellent coverage:

They just reported on a Department of Homeland Security memo that went out to local police forces ...

... urging them to consider even the most innocuous and bog-standard protest activity as dangerous ...

... like skateboarding, or walkigng around "on foot"

no joke

The story: wired.com/story/dhs-tells-poli…

Unpaywalled: archive.is/4Dgw5

An excerpt:

At the same time, the guidance urges officers to consider a range of nonviolent behavior and common protest gear—like masks, flashlights, and cameras—as potential precursors to violence, telling officers to prepare “from the point of view of an adversary.” Protesters on bicycles, skateboards, or even “on foot” are framed as potential “scouts” conducting reconnaissance or searching for “items to be used as weapons.” Livestreaming is listed alongside “doxxing” as a “tactic” for “threatening” police. Online posters are cast as ideological recruiters—or as participants in “surveillance sharing.” One list of “violent tactics” shared by the Los Angeles–based Joint Regional Intelligence Center—part of a post-9/11 fusion network—includes both protesters’ attempts to avoid identification and efforts to identify police. The memo also alleges that face recognition, normally a tool of law enforcement, was used against officers. Vera Eidelman, a senior staff attorney with the American Civil Liberties Union, says the government has no business treating constitutionally protected activities—like observing or documenting police—as threats. DHS did not respond to a request for comment. “Exercising those rights shouldn't be justification for adverse action or suspicion by the government,” Eidelman says. Labeling something as harmless as skateboarding at a protest as a violent threat is “disturbing and dangerous,” she adds, and could “easily lead to excessive force against people who are

certainly doesn't help that apparently US law enforcement has been recruiting specifically for paranoid, violence-prone man-children for ages & then subjecting them to "warrior training" & teaching them to behave as if awash in a sea of enemies at all times. They all think they're redpills in The Matrix & killing anyone as a potential enemy agent is justified & also cool.

"In an age of informational chaos, the Wayback Machine feels like one of the few institutions that never lies to us."

Nice comment from Current Affair editor

currentaffairs.org/news/how-to…

I’m actually very encouraged by the Internet Archive and Wikipedia, both of which provide models for how true information can be preserved reliably. The Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine can’t tell you if the content of a website is true or false, but it can at least tell you with confidence what was posted online at any given time, which is hugely useful when big pieces of the internet can easily disappear. (We use the Wayback Machine extensively at Current Affairs, and it was also very helpful in checking old media sources when compiling the endnotes to The Myth of American Idealism.

How To Keep The Truth Alive

In the age of deepfakes and brazen lies, we need to figure out who we can trust. Credible media institutions are more crucial than ever.

Affordable Efficiency: Tips to Secure the Best Price on a 200 TPH Stone Crusher

The quest for a 200-ton-per-hour stone crusher presents a unique challenge—balancing upfront costs with long-term operational efficiency. Savvy buyers know the cheapest sticker price often leads to the most expensive total ownership, while over-specification can tie up capital unnecessarily. Navigating this landscape requires understanding where to invest and where to economize, all while ensuring the stone crusher machine meets your specific material processing needs day after day.

Modern crusher economics have evolved beyond simple capacity metrics. The difference between an apparent bargain and genuine value lies in evaluating wear part consumption, energy efficiency curves, and hidden maintenance requirements. This guide reveals strategic approaches to secure optimal pricing without compromising the reliability needed for continuous aggregate production.

100tph limestone crushing plant for aggregate production in Tanzania

Strategic Timing for Purchase Negotiations

The heavy equipment market follows predictable seasonal patterns that astute buyers can leverage. Late Q3 often brings inventory clearance incentives as dealers make room for next year's models, while pre-owned equipment availability spikes after major infrastructure projects conclude. Crusher manufacturers typically revise their product lines every 36-42 months—targeting the months just before a new release can yield surprising discounts on current inventory.

Consider off-season purchasing for additional leverage. Northern hemisphere winter months see reduced construction activity, creating buyer-friendly conditions for stationary crushers. Mobile units, conversely, command premium pricing in spring when contractors mobilize for new projects. Some manufacturers offer early bird discounts for orders placed during trade show seasons, capitalizing on the industry's collective attention.

Configuration Optimization Over Raw Power

A 200 TPH rating alone doesn't define a crusher's true capability. The throughput-to-power ratio often reveals more about real-world value. For limestone applications, a well-configured jaw crusher mobile with 132-160kW motors frequently outperforms an overbuilt 250kW unit when paired with proper feeder and screening systems. Focus on application-specific engineering rather than blanket specifications.

Key cost-saving configurations include:

Modular wear assemblies that reduce downtime during part replacements

Hybrid power options for sites with unreliable grid connections

Pre-engineered foundation packages that eliminate custom concrete work

Multi-groove sheaves allowing speed adjustments without rotor changes

Crushing Plant for Processing Quartz Material

The Hidden Value in Aftermarket Support

The true cost of ownership emerges in the crusher's third year of operation when wear part consumption patterns become apparent. Manufacturers offering consumable part guarantees or tonnage-based pricing for liners and blow bars often provide better long-term value despite slightly higher initial quotes. Evaluate service networks with the same scrutiny as equipment specs—a local dealer with 24/7 parts availability trumps distant cost savings when breakdowns occur.

Smart buyers create maintenance cost projections comparing:

Expected liner life in specific material conditions

Onsite service call response times

Tooling requirements for routine adjustments

Availability of rebuild kits for major components

Financing packages deserve equal attention. Some manufacturers offer production-based payment plans that align machine costs with actual tonnage output, effectively making the crusher pay for itself during peak seasons. Others provide trade-in guarantees that establish future value thresholds, protecting your investment against market fluctuations.

The art of securing an optimally priced 200 TPH crusher lies in viewing the purchase as an integrated system rather than isolated equipment. When operational efficiency, maintenance costs, and resale value factor into the decision, the apparent "best 200 tph stone crusher price" often shifts dramatically. Those who take this holistic approach frequently discover that mid-range priced units with superior engineering and support packages deliver the most crushing value per dollar over a five-year horizon.

Tokyo says it is standing firm on trade after Trump announced a 25% tariff on all Japanese imports, with Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba vowing to do what was best for his country rather than yield to pressure from Washington.

No, Carney has also brought Canada closer to the EU through the defence industry, hosted the G7, participated in the annual NATO meeting, launched a reform of the civil service, etc, within a few months of the election.

The man likely has a plan for moving Canada forward in a good way.

@northernlights @firstprimate the Not sure why you think bringing Canada closer to EU is a genius move given that EU is imploding economically as we speak.

The plan this carnie has is to gut social services to fund the military, while dimwits like you carry water for him.

Meanwhile, if you looked through my posts and you think I'm a conservative then you're dumber than a bag of bricks. I guess that's a prerequisite for being a neolib though.
