Photos from the PKK disarmament ceremony in Dukan, Sulaymaniyah, show fighters queuing to burn their weapons at the entrance of Jasana Cave.
Senior PKK leaders and rank-and-file members took part in the symbolic event, marking the first formal step in the group's demobilisation following its May announcement to end its armed struggle and dissolve the organisation.
Popular Front
The greek disarmament.
The treaty specified the disarmament of EAM-ELAS, which, according to records, surrendered within the next few days or weeks 100 artillery pieces of various types, 81 heavy mortars, 138 light mortars, 419 machine guns, 1,412 submachine guns, 713 automatic rifles, 48,973 rifles and pistols, 57 antitank rifles and 17 radios.
[2]Ultimately, the promises enshrined in the Treaty of Varkiza were not upheld. The main problem was that the treaty gave amnesty only for political reasons, but many of the actions by communists during the Dekemvriana were viewed as nonpolitical. After the signing of the treaty, there was widespread persecution of communists and former EAM members and supporters over the next two years.[4] This period, immediately prior to the outbreak of the Greek Civil War, was known as the White Terror.

It is good to regularly remember that, you aren't the savior, and that you aren't responsible for other people.
My life is not my own, but it is Jesus', well that has actual consequences for our own relationships.
Yemen’s integrated stance with Gaza increases in value and authenticity — with its impressive million-man march that neither tired nor gave up, and with its escalating operations that broke the equations & never retreated or backed down.

Thinking about the Israeli attack on Iran recently and I can't shake the fact that no one is talking about the US losing not just one, but two of its most advanced stealth fighter jets, the F35 lightning.
This jet cost trillions to develop, billions to maintain, and was largely sold as our only choice for air superiority fighter to counter china.
And Iran sent two of them down in flames.

Building a lathe out of concrete.
I like the thinking, concrete is very rigid.

Looks like all of his 3d print designs are on github:

Lathes typically have a shitload of cast iron, not because they need to be that strong, but because they can't tolerate even a thousandth of an inch of flex. But concrete is very good at resisting flex and you can cast it in your garage.
A big challenge is the center line of the spindle needs to be aligned with the ways, very well. But I think it should be possible to lay them on epoxy and then align them before it hardens...

I'm starting to think concrete is a completely under-appreciated material.
I was thinking about building a vacuum/pressure chamber for drying and pressure-treating wood. I thought I'd need to get a large high strength steel tank, but in reality I could probably just pour it from concrete and only use metal hinges and gaskets at the door...
Rose reshared this.
Hmm, I think that for vacuum operation, you need to make sure you vibrate out any possible air bubbles, very well, because bubbles might compromise the concrete when subjected to vacuum.
Also a long curing time is pretty much mandatory for something subjected to such harsh conditions.
Any off-gassing from the concrete shouldn't really matter because you're actively pumping air out of the container all of the time while the wood is boiling off moisture.
I think my main concern is porosity, and it might not be possible to do pressure and vacuum in the same chamber. Under vacuum, you can coat the outside with epoxy and it will suck in to the concrete and create a strong structure. Under pressure, you could try to do the same on the inside, but concrete tensile strength is not awesome, and any epoxy painted on the outside is going to want to delaminate if the concrete is porous and being pressurized from inside...
But more globally speaking, I think concrete should be regarded as a resin with especially good compressive strength.

I've had this idea for working with 3D prints, but it could also work well with concrete in that you line the exterior with aluminum foil or the interior, and that is very gas impermeable.
You could also, by putting bars around the edge and then wrapping wire and tightening it, reinforce the structure and create a compression on the exterior structure for a pressure tank. Like a grain silo.
Think about one of these things making the rebar for small intricate concrete castings made in 3d printed molds...
There's no die, it's just CNC programming, and the cost for a company with one of those machines to make you a custom object out of wire is whatever it takes them to validate your CNC program and put it into their machine.
I'm thinking you form the wire and print a multi-part mold, then you assemble the mold with the wire in it (part of the mold needs to hold the wire, that part the wire will not be covered by concrete, you just plan for it).
Then you caulk the gaps in the mold sections and apply vacuum to the top of the mold and open the bottom of the mold to a vat of concrete to suck it in.
Release vacuum, collapsing any bubbles inside of the mold, then wait for it to cure, disassemble the mold, and saw off the parts where concrete flowed in at the bottom and out at the top...

Every time I see people talk about 2hu gacha I remember I played LostWord and Spell Bubble at the same time and the circumstances of both games Yukari fights were a cute contrast.
Lost Word Yukari: "The other worlds are going to be more dangerous than this one was so I will put you through one last test."
Spell Bubble Reimu: [talking to the others about Yukari] "Oh, I recognize THAT tone of voice. Don't let her give you trouble. She is just sour that we solved the incident and she did ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to help."

Engage a liberal on Marxism and witness pure ideological autocomplete when they start flawlessly regurgitating anti-communist talking points with zero cognitive friction. No material analysis, no historical engagement, just the frictionless recall of a language model trained on Cold War tropes.

How about - y'know - maybe - pretty, please - also think about the folks in the global south who have no money (thank you very much colonial past and continued looting under the guise of IMF/WB) to get air-conditioning? Or maybe... who knows... allow them to migrate to your "cool" countries?
