@aral This might be the same argument you're making, but:
I think there's a dangerous 'worship' of entrepreneurship, as though the only problem with the markets and the economy is that businesses are too big, and that anyone who runs a small business is automatically a hero and deserving of subsidies.
I don't like monopolies, but not all small businesses are good either, and as far as I am aware every business wants to become big.
So our team just flipped a ~ 28% agree / 72% disagree initial vote to a 52% agree / 48% disagree vote after our presentations and debate at the Straits Times Educational Forum in Singapore on the motion “Entrepreneurs today do more harm than good.”
Gives me hope to see that change is possible once people actually get to hear diverse viewpoints. Here’s hoping we can follow-through with The Straits Times and Singapore Management University to implement some of the alternatives that we discussed.

Il n'y a plus à se demander si l'UE tourne à la #dictature, nous n'avons pas le droit d'exprimer des avis différents d'eux, dès qu'une personne commence à avoir un peu d'influence publique, ils agissent (voir p. ex. le cas de Reiner #Fuellmich en Allemagne aussi, ou ce qui vient d'arriver à #Jovanovic, en France, qui a échappé à l'internement psychiatrique car il n'était pas chez lui)....
Et tous ces pédants intellos de gauche qui ne voient rien et qui ont peur bleue d'arriver aux mêmes conclusions que les "conspi", car au final leur position, réputation, sécurité et leur salaire pourraient en pâtir....
♦️Alina #Lipp est une journaliste allemande indépendante, installée à #Donetsk dans le #Donbass depuis l’automne 2022. Elle couvre le conflit russo-ukrainien.
♦️Les autorités allemandes avaient ouvert une affaire pénale contre elle en 2023 car elle avait qualifié les crimes de guerre de l’ #Ukraine dans le Donbass, qui se déroulent depuis #2014, de «génocide», et dénoncé le bataillon nazi #Azov. Elle risquait jusqu’à trois ans de prison ferme. Loin de s’arrêter là, le gouvernement allemand avait fermé ses comptes bancaires, ainsi que ceux de son père afin d’assécher ses revenus.
♦️Hier, elle a tweeté sur X:
«Pour la première fois, l'UE interdit l'entrée en #Europe à ses propres citoyens : Thomas Röper et moi-même avons été sanctionnés aujourd'hui par l'UE en raison de nos reportages sur le Donbass.
Les conséquences pour nous :
"Les personnes désignées aujourd'hui seront soumises à un gel de leurs avoirs et il sera interdit aux citoyens et aux entreprises de l'UE de leur verser des fonds. De plus, les personnes physiques seront également soumises à une interdiction de voyager, les empêchant d'entrer sur le territoire de l' #UE ou d'y transiter."
La liberté d’expression dans "l’Europe libre et démocratique" est morte. »
♦️En fait, il ne s’agit pas seulement d’une atteinte à la liberté d’expression, mais de la #criminalisation de citoyens européens traités comme des parias, empêchés d’entrer sur le territoire de l’UE et privés de leurs biens. Les paquets de sanctions décrétés par l’UE contre la #Russie s’appliquent désormais aussi à des citoyens européens…

Quotes
- Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.
- Democritus: Not from fear but from a sense of duty refrain from your sins.
- Democritus: Many who have not learned wisdom live wisely, and many who do the basest deeds can make most learned speeches.
- Democritus: Fools learn wisdom through misfortune.
- Democritus: Strength of body is nobility in beasts of burden, strength of character is nobility in men.
- Democritus: Neither art nor wisdom may be attained without learning.
- Democritus: It is better to correct your own faults than those of another.
- Democritus: Good means not (merely) not to do wrong, but rather not to desire to do wrong.
- Democritus: Fame and wealth without wisdom are unsafe possessions.
- Muammar Gaddafi: We will not surrender. We will defeat them by any means. We are ready for the fight, whether it will be a short or a long one. We will be victorious in the end. This assault is by a bunch of fascists who will end up in the dustbin of history.
- Democritus: By convention sweet is sweet, bitter is bitter, hot is hot, cold is cold, color is color; but in truth there are only atoms and the void.
- Democritus: We know nothing accurately in reality, but (only) as it changes according to the bodily condition, and the constitution of those things that flow upon (the body) and impinge upon it.
- Democritus: Medicine heals diseases of the body, wisdom frees the soul from passions.
- Democritus: Immoderate desire is the mark of a child, not a man.
- Democritus: Men have fashioned an image of Chance as an excuse for their own stupidity.
- Democritus: In a shared fish, there are no bones.
- Democritus: Education is an ornament for the prosperous, a refuge for the unfortunate.
- Democritus: The animal needing something knows how much it needs, the man does not.
- Democritus: Moderation multiplies pleasures, and increases pleasure.
- Democritus: If your desires are not great, a little will seem much to you; for small appetite makes poverty equivalent to wealth.
- Democritus: No power and no treasure can outweigh the extension of our knowledge.
- Democritus: In fact we do not know anything infallibly, but only that which changes according to the condition of our body and of the (influences) that reach and impinge upon it.
- Democritus: Of practical wisdom these are the three fruits: to deliberate well, to speak to the point, to do what is right.
- Democritus: 'Tis not in strength of body nor in gold that men find happiness, but in uprightness and in fulness of understanding.
- Democritus: He who does wrong is more unhappy than he who suffers wrong.
- Samuel P. Huntington: The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion (to which few members of other civilizations were converted) but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
- Marjori Palmer: One of the most morale-damaging aspects of the inflation was the "sack of Germany" that occurred at the height of the (1923) inflation. Anyone who possessed dollars or sterling was king in Germany. A few American dollars would allow a man to live like a millionaire. Foreigners swarmed into the country, buying up family treasures, estates, jewelry and art works at unbelievable low prices.
- Lionel Robbins: It was the most colossal thing of its kind in history: and next probably to the Great War itself, it must bear responsibility for many of the political and economic difficulties of our generation. It destroyed the wealth of the more solid elements of German society: and left behind a moral and economic disequilibrium, a breeding ground for the disasters which have followed. Hitler is the foster child of the inflation.
- Lenin: There is no trace of utopianism in Marx, in the sense that he made up or invented a 'new' society. No, he studied the birth of the new society out of the old, and the forms of transition from the latter to the former, as a natural-historical process. He examined the actual experience of a proletarian mass movement and tried to draw practical lessons from it.
- Che Guevara: Many will call me an adventurer - and that I am, only one of a different sort: one of those who risks his skin to prove his platitudes.
- Democritus: The first principles of the universe are atoms and empty space; everything else is merely thought to exist.
- Bertolt Brecht: Lenin is enshrined In the large heart of the working class.

The downing of Rafales along the India-Pakistan border goes beyond a simple military incident. According to aerospace and defense expert Jean-François Geneste, its origins run much deeperL'Eclaireur Rhône Alpes (L'ÉCLAIREUR)
Antonio García, Primer Comandante of the ELN
Among all the barbarity imposed by those who want the world to live according to their own views and privileges, subject to their interests, barbarism that in many cases leads to armed conflicts, the barbarity suffered by the Palestinian people stands out above any other.
The figures speak for themselves. Since a year and a half ago, when the Israeli army invaded the Palestinian territory, without taking heed in its military offensive between armed combatants and the civilian population, 51,000 of their sons and daughters have been killed; more than 31,000 bodies lie under rubble, according to credible reports, and reports of missing people exceed 4,100 victims. To make matters worse, 345,000 people in Gaza are in phase 5 famine, which is equal to total starvation. A murder in dribs and drabs.
Israeli barbarity and terror that has no limits: it has repeatedly subjected the population of the invaded territory to move again and again, in the narrow territory they inhabit, carrying their few belongings, subjecting them to conditions of existence of extreme cruelty, without water, with barely a food ration per day, at most, without the right to enjoy any recreation or study for their children. living in tents, punished on several occasions by the bombardments of the invading army’s aviation, as well as by the incursions of its infantry that seeks, guided by drones and intelligence systems controlled by state-of-the-art software, with identification of voices and faces, the guerrillas of the Popular Front, Islamic Jihad, Democratic Front and Al Aqsa Brigades, and in the pursuit of which women and men, young people, the elderly and children are targeted. According to the counterinsurgency military doctrine, they are all guerrillas, some in arms, others without, some shoot, others are their eyes and ears.
In this military invasion, all human rights have been ignored, cornering a people whose territory has experienced a notable reduction year after year, their lands have become inhabited by armed settlers or permanently protected, by one of the best armed and barbarity trained armies.
It is a people who, in the face of the reality of violence, continuous aggression, disrespect and humiliation, do not renounce living according to their self-determination, and whose youth, full of hatred for the violence they suffer day by day, has no other option than to fight armed for freedom and respect. For them, invaded as they are, the way to evade the enemy is through tunnels, building in fact an underground city, through which they manage to evade the espionage and constant control that the invaders intend to make of their movements.
To try to get them out of these invisible trenches, the enemy uses bombs of up to 1,000 kilos, discharging several at the same time that they can collapse concrete constructions, at depth, of up to seven floors. The magnitude of what has been built reveals the immense effort made by thousands of people, to be able to raise and fortify their defenses, aware of the power of the enemy they face.
It is an enemy that does not contain itself before any rule, humanitarian principle or law, and by trying to capture, dead or alive, the guerrillas who oppose them, not only destroy the fortifications of sovereignty, but also devastate all homes and urban infrastructure, killing and wounding dozens of people in each attack.
There are air strikes and advanced infantry attacks in which it is becoming clear that the use of robotic and guided weapons is already the norm. There, the struggle of humans against remotely controlled machines is a daily occurrence, by systems engineers who do not risk their lives and destroy those of tens of thousands. A daily invasion and attack carried out, moreover, with the constant support of the United States army, which provides them with all kinds of weapons and supports them in intelligence by providing them with all the information collected, by their satellites directed over that territory, as well as the accompaniment and advice of several of the largest software multinationals registered in that country and that provide them with everything they require in this area.
Yet, with thousands of soldiers on the ground, with hundreds of armored tanks roaming the streets of Gaza and surrounding cities, with dozens of aircraft conducting combat intelligence or bombing entire neighborhoods, with the possibility of renewing its troops whenever it deems necessary, the invading army has not been able to defeat a few thousand guerrillas determined to fight for the freedom of their people. for their dignity, for respect for their territory and the right to be sovereign.
In their effort, which involves absolute mobility, the implementation of an armored communication system against eavesdropping, with the maximum use of surprise, as well as the use of all kinds of traps, which hinder enemy mobility and cause casualties that demoralize them, the guerrillas of the Palestinian resistance are teaching a lesson to the peoples of the world, teaching day by day that an army inferior in units and logistics, as Vietnam once did, can contain its opponent, resist and win.
The events summarized here clearly indicate, despite what is commonly said, that the right to rebellion is as valid as it was the norm decades ago, when the decolonization of the world advanced by leaps and bounds. New forms of colonialism take shape and, as a reaction, new and dynamic expressions of resistance are expressed and shown.
As a lesson for all the peoples of the world, we also have that the reality experienced today in Palestinian territory allows us to glimpse the first of the latest generation urban wars, one in which human beings confront machines, a remote-controlled war, with hundreds of drones in constant action, armored combat systems of all kinds, satellites monitoring the lives of thousands every second, and underground corridors, a new type of trenches, built with the use of engineering and the conscious arms of thousands of people.
A feat that can only be achieved through social leadership, as well as recognition among the people. Something already explicit when the representatives of the Palestinian resistance were elected eighteen years ago, by popular vote to direct the destiny of Gaza.
Politics, popular participation, legitimacy, a triad that gives way to leadership and effective armed defense.
Che had already taught it: nothing without the people, everything is possible with the people.

درود
در ادامهی ماجرای اولین مشارکت درست حسابیم(کمی درست حسابی) در یک پروژه نرم افزارآزاد، ماجرای اولین درخواست واکشیمو براتون گفتم. البته بگم، من نمیگم که حتی کل مشارکتام روی همم باز چیز بزرگیه، هدف من این بود که در روند توسعه یک پروژه تاثیر زیادی داشته باشم. حالا چه یک پروژه کوچیک یا یک پروژه بزرگ. حتی منظورم این نبود که مشارکتام باید از نظر فنی نیاز به دانش زیادی داشته باشن.
معنای Phoenix یعنی ققنوس، عکسی هم که برای این نوشته انتخاب کردم یک ققنوسه که در فرستههای بعدی میگم از کجا اومده.
اون زمان Phoenix تنها میتونست از راه کدنوشتهها نصب و حذفنصب بشه و کاملا به کدنوشتهها وابسته بود.
فرایند نصب خیلی ساده بود، با wget پرونده هارو از مخزن Codeberg در tmp/ بارگیری میکردی و بعدش هم اون پرونده هارو با mv سر جای خودشون میذاشتی. فرایند حذفنصب هم با rm انجام میشد.
کد نوشتهها رو هم کاربر اینجوری اجرا میکرد. برای نمونه اجراء کدنوشتهی نصب به این صورت بود
sudo bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://phoenix.celenity.dev/debian_uninstall.sh)"این روش حذف و نصب در بسیاری از پروژه ها به کار گرفته میشه و کاملا هم شناخته شده هست. قبول دارم این روش نصب برنامهها اصلا خوب نیست و برای ناپایدار کنندگیش هم معروفه.
اما، امااااا، شنیدن کی بود مانند دیدن!
من حتی قبل از اینکه در Phoenix شرکت کنم و خودم عامل ایجاد یکی از این روش ها بشم و تاثیراتشو روی مردم هم ببینم باز هم به این حرفا که «نرم افزار هارو بجز از مخازن رسمی و مدیر بسته، از جای دیگه نصب نکن. هر کدنوشتهای رو اجرا نکن و .....» اعتقاد زیادی داشتم.
من همیشه تمام تلاشمو میکنم که چیزی رو از مخازن غیر رسمی نصب نکنم و هر کدنوشتهای رو اجرا نکنم. ولی وقتی خودم وارد این جریانانت شدم فهمیدم که عهههههههههه
بابا این روش رسما فضاحت ملیه.
ولی خب تا خودم توزیع چند نفرو نترکوندم به این حد به این جمله اعتقاد نداشتم. الآن نه تنها اعتقاد دارم بلکه بهش ایمان راسخ هم دارم.
من و Celenity در روند توسعه Phoenix به اشکالات و خرابکاریهای زیادی برخوردیم. اکثر این مشکلات هم فقط به خاطر این کدنوشته های نصب و حذف بود.
اولین مشکل این روش کند و اعصاب خرد کدن بودن اون بود، کاربر برای هر نصب و حذف باید مرورگر رو باز میکرد، وارد مخزن ما میشد، دستور حذف یا حذفنصب رو رونوشت میکرد و در پاپانه اجرا میکرد. شاید فکر کنید خب در طول استفاده از یک نرم افزار مگه چند بار باید اونو نصبو حذف کنم مگه؟ همش یکبار نصبش میکنم و بعدش هم یکبار حذفش میکنم. ولی خب این تمام ماجرا نبود
مشکل اصلی این بود که جنس پروژه Phoenix از جنس پروژه هایی هست که به بروزرسانی های زیادی نیاز دارن و این روش نمیتونست بروزرسانی رو به صورت خودکار انجام بده و خب هدف ما این بود که این پروژه برای استفادهی روزانهی کاربر مناسب باشه و نه اینکه صرفا بیاد یه ناخونکی بزنه و بره پی کارش! میخواستیم کاربر بتونه بروزرسانی هارو به راحتی دریافت کنه، در این روش حتی کاربر نمیتونه به راحتی از انتشار یک نگارش جدید به راحتی مطلع بشه!!! 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
دومین مشکل این این روش ناهماهنگیای بود که در سامانهی پرونده ها ایجاد میکرد
سومین مشکل یک اشکال امنیتی بود که در این روش وجود داشت!!!!!!!!!!!
ما وقتی متوجه این اشکال شدیم که یک نفر اونو گذارشش داد. البته این بنده خدا اینو برای نصب دستی گفته بود، ولی خب نصب با کدنوشته هامون هم این مشکلو داشت.
حرف اون بنده خدا:
The manual install instructs several "sudo mv" operations. IIUC 'mv' will maintain the original owner and permissions. This would mean that the policy and configuration files, when properly installed, are still owned by the user instead of e.g. root. Thus there is access to and room for malicious changes. (And depending on umask, might also not be accessible to other users on the system even though placed in system-wide paths.)
یادتونه گفتم پرونده های بارگیری شده رو با mv سر جای خودشتون جاگذاری میکردیم؟ خب مشکل اینکه دستور mv برعکس دستور cp بعد از انتقال یک پرونده صاحب پرونده رو به کاربری که این انتقالو انجام داده تغیر نمیده!!
یعنی اگه شما با sudo cp یک پرونده رو که خودتون صاحب اون هستید رو در جای دیگه جاگذاری کنید، چون شما این کارو با دسترسی کاربر ریشه انجام دادید مثل اینکه واقعا خود کاربر ریشه این کارو کرده و دستور cp میاد صاحب پروندهی جدید به کاربر ریشه تغیر میده ولی دستور mv این کارو نمیکنه و ما با این کار چنتا پرونده رو که کاربر معمولی هم میتونه اونو ویرایش کنه در جای خطرناکی قرار داده بودیم.
تازه چه پروندههایی رووو! پرونده هایی که برای پیکربندی مرورگر استفاده میشدند!
مشکل که زیاد بود، یک بار یه کاربر میومد میگفت که کدنوشته حذف کار نمیکنه، یه بار یکی دیگه میگفت کدنوشته نصب کار نمیکنه، یه بار یکی میومد میگفت که چرا اینقدر تعداد کدنوشته ها زیاده(ما برای هر کدوم از توزیع های آرچ، دبیان و فدورا یک کدنوشته نصب داشتیم و هم یک کدنوشتهی حذف که روی هم میشه ۶ تا)، یه بار مسیر پرونده هارو اشتباه تنظیم کرده بودیم و یکی از پرونده ها رفته بود به ناکجا آباد و ..................
مشکل تعداد زیاد کدنوشته هارو تونستیم با ایجاد یک کدنوشتهی نصب و حذف اصلی که کاربر در اون توزیعشو انتخاب میکرد حل کنیم ولی اونم باز خیلی چیز بیخودی بود.
تازه ما میخواستیم این همه کدنوشته با هم هماهنگ هم باشن و تو حالا باید بیای و ۶ تا کدنوشته رو کاری کنی که گذارشاتشونم مثل هم باشه و خب واقعا خیلی سخت بود. خیلی که پیشرفته شدیم، زدیم یکی اصلی برای نصب و یکی اصلی برای حذف ساختیم. یکی از اون اصلی ها رو در زیر میبینید:
البته عکس بالا برای یکی زمانی هست که تازه ما یک نصب و حذف کننده اصلی داشتیم. بعد ها طی چند مرحلهی دور و دراز تبدیلشون کردیم به زیری، تازه در عکس زیری ما دیگه برای همهی توزیع ها از بستهبندی خودشون استفاده می کردیم
تازه! تنظیم و همانگی رنگ ها در نصب و حذف کننده اصلی باز خودش دوباره خیلی دنگو فنگ داشت!
خلاصه بنده با افتخار بگم که ما با این همه تلاش و مشقت فراوان برای اینکه کاملا مطمئن شیم این کدنوشته ها کارشونو درست انجام میدن، باز به توزیع حدود ۲۰ نفر گند زدیم! البته باز گند های دیگهای هم هست که در فرستههای دیگه ای به اونا اشاره میکنم.

It does feel like there is, at long last, a bit of a turning point in European Israel support. Which is of course good. But:
- It comes far too late. As if everything up to now was ok!
- With ongoing US support and Israel determined, not sure how much difference it will make (and maybe they know this; all just positioning?)
- Also: what is their vision? You must let in more food aid whilst continuing to annihilate? SO much more is surely needed to help #Gaza

Quotes
- Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.
- Democritus: Not from fear but from a sense of duty refrain from your sins.
- Democritus: Many who have not learned wisdom live wisely, and many who do the basest deeds can make most learned speeches.
- Democritus: Fools learn wisdom through misfortune.
- Democritus: Strength of body is nobility in beasts of burden, strength of character is nobility in men.
- Democritus: Neither art nor wisdom may be attained without learning.
- Democritus: It is better to correct your own faults than those of another.
- Democritus: Good means not (merely) not to do wrong, but rather not to desire to do wrong.
- Democritus: Fame and wealth without wisdom are unsafe possessions.
- Muammar Gaddafi: We will not surrender. We will defeat them by any means. We are ready for the fight, whether it will be a short or a long one. We will be victorious in the end. This assault is by a bunch of fascists who will end up in the dustbin of history.
- Democritus: By convention sweet is sweet, bitter is bitter, hot is hot, cold is cold, color is color; but in truth there are only atoms and the void.
- Democritus: We know nothing accurately in reality, but (only) as it changes according to the bodily condition, and the constitution of those things that flow upon (the body) and impinge upon it.
- Democritus: Medicine heals diseases of the body, wisdom frees the soul from passions.

- Democritus: 'Tis not in strength of body nor in gold that men find happiness, but in uprightness and in fulness of understanding.

- Samuel P. Huntington: The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion (to which few members of other civilizations were converted) but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
- Marjori Palmer: One of the most morale-damaging aspects of the inflation was the "sack of Germany" that occurred at the height of the (1923) inflation. Anyone who possessed dollars or sterling was king in Germany. A few American dollars would allow a man to live like a millionaire. Foreigners swarmed into the country, buying up family treasures, estates, jewelry and art works at unbelievable low prices.
- Lionel Robbins: It was the most colossal thing of its kind in history: and next probably to the Great War itself, it must bear responsibility for many of the political and economic difficulties of our generation. It destroyed the wealth of the more solid elements of German society: and left behind a moral and economic disequilibrium, a breeding ground for the disasters which have followed. Hitler is the foster child of the inflation.
- Lenin: There is no trace of utopianism in Marx, in the sense that he made up or invented a 'new' society. No, he studied the birth of the new society out of the old, and the forms of transition from the latter to the former, as a natural-historical process. He examined the actual experience of a proletarian mass movement and tried to draw practical lessons from it.
- Che Guevara: Many will call me an adventurer - and that I am, only one of a different sort: one of those who risks his skin to prove his platitudes.

Granite isn’t just a pretty face on kitchen countertops—it’s the muscle behind countless construction projects. But the magic doesn’t happen until it’s crushed, sifted, and sculpted into the exact sizes needed, ranging from whisper-fine 0–5mm dust to sturdy 40mm chunks. These sizes from granite crusher machine aren’t arbitrary. They’re the difference between a rock-solid foundation and a total structural flop.
You can’t just crush granite and hope for the best. The final size determines where and how the aggregate gets used. For instance, 0–5mm fines are essential in making concrete smoother and more workable, while 10–20mm gravel finds its way into roads, drainage beds, and structural backbones. Jump to 30–40mm, and you're looking at railway ballast or large-scale civil engineering projects.
The wrong size? That’s a recipe for cracked concrete, clogged filters, or underperforming drainage systems. Size, quite literally, shapes performance.
Each project speaks a different language when it comes to particle size. Ready-mix concrete thrives on the perfect blend—often a tight mix of 10mm and 20mm. Asphalt, on the other hand, leans more into the smaller grades. Large gabion stones need sizes closer to the upper limit of the 40mm mark.
This is why size control isn’t just a checkbox—it’s a deal-breaker. It decides whether a batch of crushed granite becomes premium construction material or gets tossed in the reject pile.
The journey of a granite boulder is epic. First, it meets the jaw crusher, which performs the brutal task of breaking down massive chunks—think 600mm or larger—into manageable pieces. But this is only the beginning.
Next in line: the cone crusher or sometimes an impact crusher for secondary crushing. Here, the rocks are honed down to medium sizes—around 40mm to 20mm. Precision begins to take shape.
The final act belongs to the tertiary crusher. This stage focuses on finesse, churning out finely graded material, often in the 0–10mm range. Some setups go even further with vertical shaft impactors (VSI) to produce sharp-edged, cubical sand from granite dust.
Different crushers wear different hats. Jaw crushers are brute-force machines—efficient but not subtle. Cone crushers provide balance, allowing adjustable settings to dial in medium-size granules. Meanwhile, VSIs are artists in disguise, refining texture and angularity with uncanny precision.
Screening decks work behind the scenes, sorting crushed rock by size through multiple layers of vibrating meshes. Without screens, you’re just guessing. With them, you’re orchestrating.
Getting the right size isn't luck. It's a game of calibration. Modern crushers for gravel use closed-circuit systems, where oversize material loops back into the crusher until it fits the grade. This feedback loop ensures nothing too big sneaks through the system.
Automation tools step in with sensors and real-time adjustments, reducing human error. Think of it as cruise control for crushing—smart, consistent, and efficient.
Want more fines? Tighten the crusher setting. Too much dust? Adjust the screen inclination or mesh size. Operators often tweak eccentric throw or CSS (closed-side setting) to match real-world demands. Even small changes—a few millimeters—can have dramatic effects on the particle profile.
Water spray systems can also be added to control dust and improve screening accuracy, especially when targeting the 0–5mm range. It's not brute force—it’s finesse.
Controlling granite's final size is a mix of science, art, and machine muscle. From boulders to dust, every step matters. And when it’s done right, you don’t just get the right size—you get the right results.
What is a cone crusher for sale? It is typically used in the secondary and tertiary stages, following primary crushing by jaw crusher or gyratory crusher.AIMIX GROUP

So I signed up for three months of classes in advance at a martial arts studio because it was the only one that taught a specific martial art I wanted to learn
I requested for permission not to bow to any object such as a shrine & only to bow to human beings
He gave me a sheet after I signed up and it mentioned saluting country flags
I do not know what to do if he says that saluting a flag is not bowing nor a religious ritual
I want to be legally prepared but not a jerk
Ok so this is bizarre he teaches TaeKwanDoe and HapKiDo
I can learn TaeKwanDo anywhere but I signed up specifically because of the HapKiDo
Now his instructions on paper say to
"Salute to Flag"
And
"Bow to student highest in rank"
But when I look online it says in TaeKwanDo that they bow to the flag
Also in pledge of allegiance people put their hands over their hearts
So now I am wondering if it will end up looking like Nazi Salutes or bowing?
"Just salute an israeli flag then?"
I can not choose the type of flag I salute he put up the flags it is an Anerican Flag and a Korean Flag
There is no Nazi Flag and No Israeli Flag
I would not want to salute any flag because it implies blind faith obedience to whatever the authority Figure says
No matter how great they are in their suggestions most of the time I would not want to agree to obey some government authority 100% of the time
