it still doesn't explain why it is done:
• why do directors and producers sign off effects that are just eye-bleeding bad?
• using a realtime engine to develop the effects, doesn't preclude using some real render-pass at the end to get a nice result instead of "game level graphics". a final render-pass can't be that expensive that ruining the movie is preferred? if 20 years ago a render-farm could do it, it cannot cost millions today, can it?
why allow shady sellers in the first place?
the 'Guardia di Finanza' has a long standing tradition of trying to extort money without regards to actual laws. its not long ago that they told all companies 'if you pay X% more than your tax report says you own then we won't destroy your company'. more recently they went after the Agnelli family trying to extort money without having an actual case.
its not the rule of law, its simply Might makes Right or modern robber knights...
I'd say most professional athletes are less intelligent than average…
just use Kagi and block all SEO sites...
forcing germans to buy everything at 10 times of what it costs now is not the way to rescue the country
no surprise given the high taxes, extreme energy prices, massive bureaucracy, ridiculous regulations, work-hating employees and extremely business-hostile culture
this sounds like science fiction, it would need to uniformly lift between 18.500 and 370.000 cubic meter of soil/rock by 30cm a day.
300.000 m³ soil/rock would weigh something like 600.000 tonnes and would require ~1.8 GJ to lift by one foot even with zero loss and discounting all other factors apart from lifting the mass.

Rayleigh Scattering is not an illusion but an effect.

ugh. no, there are no "tiny blue" particles in the sky.
or, more likely, everyone in the EU will ignore this "digital euro" nonsense and it will just be another unnecessary waste of taxpayer money.
what possible benefit over what already exists and is in wide use could a "digital euro" offered by the ECB provide to any EU citizen?
can't we just call things "A thorough examination / analysis" anymore?
isn't this the case for many studies in the past decade? just confirming what we've known all along
why to web admins think this is acceptable for visitors?
…
I have no idea what a compiled language is.
isn't that the case with all of Dyson's 'bladeless' fans?
cars are just people that move from A to B.
if there is no sensible way to move where you need to go it is not a city made for humans but just hostile to people and their requirements.
i need exactly 63 downvotes please, don't be cheap.
in any case, how would you transport high temperatures to the industrial sites? water boils at 100° and few liquids boil above 400°. most liquids will be impractical due to cost or safety (combustibility, toxicity…).
