No, I live in a house on a well-lit hill in an extremely gentrified area. Also, I have 4 kids and the chances of a domestic accident with the gun far exceed the chances of proper home defense with it where I live. After I purchased the home, I requested that the last home-owner come help me sort some stuff out and when he arrived, he told me that he never bothered locking the doors because of how safe the area was and that it took him hours to find the keys for the handover.
If that is your choice, good luck. I was raised with firearms around the house with no accidents, it is all about gun safety. There are many times when I have gone to stores and, while coming out of movie theaters at night, where having my concealed weapon helped deter potential threats from becoming more serious. I hope you never have to encounter any situations where you will regret not having it. My thinking is simple, it is better to have a firearm and not have to use it, than to need a firearm and not have it.

This is a recent development. Just 10 years ago, Indians were very pro-Iran (maybe only outwardly). They were trying to pitch the Irani Chabahar Port as some sort of rival to the CPEC Gwadar Port; had plans to create a trade network from Chabahar into Afghanistan that was occupied by a India-friendly NATO puppet government.

NATO loss and Taliban take over was a major blow to India. But earlier when US sanctioned Iran, India complied and gave up on Chabahar, at which point Iran ejected India from such projects and instead showed interest in joining CPEC and China's OBOR.

It was a series of strategic miscalculations; unable to withstand US pressure. Iran's interest in OBOR did not go well in India either.

They are anti Iran now because current strategy consists of aligning with Israel, and working with UAE to create a middleastern trade corridor from Europe to India that goes through Israel and UAE. Not sure what they'll be exporting to Europe.. maybe their huge population.
I think India could get another try at the Chabahar Port if Washtington can break up Iran and make some kind of Baluchistan state.

This should not surprize. South Korea has positive impression on Russian government. There may already be considerable direct and indirect trade. that Samsung delivering the vessel and i presume tech or parts were transferred to finish Russian Ice Class Arc 7. Samsung semi and display technology is biggest beneficiary of Soviet science.
from what i have read. Arctic Vostok Oil phase 1 is almost ready. and if Russian really invest in it it can match biggest oil/gas fields. salaries before current oil price run up already $3K pm with free food for manual work with one month off for every two or three month work.

safely in Murmansk. There will be two in total, with the second, named Koryak FSU, scheduled to be moored off the coast of Kamchatka in July. Incidentally, they were built by Daewoo Shipbuilding Marine Engineering, which received the order in… 2020. From this, one can easily conclude that international restrictions apply to the development of the Arctic fleet only nominally—the prospects for developing the Arctic are too attractive, and anyone who misses this opportunity risks a great deal.

I love Shoegate. Which one was it? Was it Trump buying shoes for his guys and Lil’ Marco said he said he was “larger” size than he was. Or was it Trump intentionally gave Marco Rubio a larger size because remember it was Marco Rubio that called Trump “small hands”? Trump never forgets when someone disses him. When Trump 1.0 won and before he officially became President, he invited arch nemesis Mitt Romney to dinner. Romney thought he was going to be invited to be a part of the administration but turns out it was just so Trump could gloat over Romney and watch him beg for forgiveness.

I forget the details but Israel hid something about one of their former leaders in an eight year deception where the guy was dead and they didn’t reveal it for eight years or he was in something like a coma for eight years and then died and then they revealed the truth. So would it be surprising if Netanyahu was dead? Look at how there’s celebration in the streets of friendly to Israel countries when Iran is attacking them. You can see why they would need to hide something like that. Like I said before, a big tell-tale sign from the US is out of the blue they’ll point the finger for something at an adversarial country but then you find out they’re guilty of what they’re accusing. Look at how the US suddenly talked about how cyber warfare is an act of war if committed on the US. Then you find out Stuxnet was happening around the time US was calling cyber warfare was an act of war. Or how about China is stealing everyone’s data through everyone’s personal devices. Then you find out that’s what US companies and the US government has always been doing. And if you want to believe Covid came from US research funding, look at how that was blamed on China. There’s a pattern of deception by blaming someone else first to cover up what’s happening with you already. And why was Bessent visibly shaken after he came back from an interview that was interrupted by Trump? Maybe he was told Netanyahu was killed.

A little bit of nitrous oxide is all you need.

Had an operation that way. Had no never problems that with.
My mother held the belief that using anesthesia on tooth nerves could cause brain damage, so I have always had dental operations performed without anesthesia. One good thing that came out of it was after my first batch of fillings, I became very consistent and thorough with my brushing.

What do you all think of this? Ive been seeing it pop up a few times today but not many have talked about it

Confidential data from China's National Supercomputing Center in Tianjin has been put up for sale. the data includes aerospace engineering, military technology, bioinformatics, and nuclear fusion simulations.

I just hope skip gliding calculations weren't included, but the sample usually wants to add the most tasty stuff, and most of it is explosion calculations at best and bomb penetration calculations. Worst stuff is probably all the novel technologies that are there relating to nuclear fusion. Dont expect anything like RCS, or ranges of missiles, or anything actually meaningful.

Cybersecurity should be #1 on the list for China. AI-based cyber weapons are now a huge threat to every country.

There is one thing puzzling me about the "leak" is that lots of stuff mentioned in that article is PDF format research papers. NSCC is a just computing center, raw data set with formated number and letter based acronyms are expected being store in their storage, but PDF research papers are not created in NSCC and would not be stored there by any means. For example, CAC may use NSCC to simulate something, then take the data and put in a paper composed in CAC's computer and store there.

It could be that the claimed 10PG data includes things from many places if they are really leaks. Or it could even be that MSS is fishing potential buyers with seemly legit bait or outdated but legit bait. Who knows, this is a game of everyone stealing and cheating everyone.
