the US set up a little base in iran a few weeks back and had boots on the ground firing against iranians.

one of the main peace demands the US has is to put boots on the ground to steal iran's uranium

nah, "as a french" is perfectly fine english grammar.

english changes over time, and thats been a normal description for at least a decade

to be fair, its canada thats knly part french thats saying what everyone is thinking nowadays

do you still believe in democracy?

> It also has giant homeless camps stretching on for miles, abandoned and collapsing old houses, factories, etc as far as the eye can see.

On a political tuning side, I would put this as ultra-rightwing, rather than left. Said homeless camps only exist in right wing media

its still kinda irrelevant to whether the code does anything useful; only a descriptor of the funding model

there's a lot of work already done on understanding what makes factories safe or not.

whats the infrasound danger of a factory? how long can a new factory use emergency nat gas generators because they ignored the environmental regulations?

data center owners are much much more powerful than factory owners having the ear of the president, supreme court, and congress. if you tried to regulate one after it gets opened, youre screwed, and theyre gonna ignore your regulations
