War, like what’s happening in Ukraine?

sun_is_ra , to worldnews in Egypt president pardons rights activist Patrick Zaki and lawyer Mohammed al-Baqer

Background for those who don’t know: ElSis came to power after a coup against Islamic regime . hehass only military education with no knowlage of economy, politics, diplomacy nor even ability to speak any language beside his mother tongue. Despite that he has massive ego as well as mentioning he communicate with God.

His policy for solving all internal problems is imprisoning / killing while forgein policy is mostly focused on trying not to piss anyone off.

Al-Baqer was a lawyer for a very prominent Egyptian figure Alla Abdul fattah. A well educated, well known activist (both in politics and in promoting Linux / open source). Anyway, AlBaqer was arrested while being in police station with his client Alla Abdul fattah.

The charges are standard and unified for all political arrested: abusing social media channels, joining terrorist group, spreading false news.

Patrick George was arrested for complaining about cases of oppression against Christians. Same standard charges.

Why they are being released is because elSisi is becoming weaker and weaker as the economy is taking deep dive to oblivion due to lot of bad economical decisions from his part

TheYang , to worldnews in Four arrested over €1.6m Celtic coin theft
@TheYang@lemmy.world avatar

I’ve been wondering if it really is the right decision to put things on display which have both, a significant material value, and historical value.

The gold of these gold coins seems to have had roughly 250,000€ in value.
That seems like a lot of incentive to steal and melt it down.

And what is the benefit of displaying the actual items? It’s not rare that the public is only shown a fake, one that just looks good enough to get the impression of the item.

I was thinking (and haven’t decided yet if the idea is good) that stuff of this nature (material value + historical value) may be better off being in a more secured place somewhere, where it still can be studied by people when required, but the public can’t get at it as easily. With fakes being shown in Museums. Those fakes could them allow more interaction (like touching a dinosaur teeth/bones), and the original doesn’t suffer damage from people touching it, light and/or people stealing it and melting it down.

Museums don’t generally show fakes they usually show the originals

For a country that’s already fallen off the population cliff, they surely won’t be fixing their future problems by letting foreigners in.

Guess they will have to become a weak country of retirees before anything changes.

Honest question: why not fight it at night? Would be cooler with the sun down, and the target glows in the dark to the naked eye. No light no problem? I’m sure it’s more complex than that

In the 1970s, the US halted aerial firefighting activities at night due to cost and safety concerns. I know some states made narrow exceptions, but not sure about California. A good read on this www.airmedandrescue.com/…/nighttime-firefighting

Lemmylaugh , to news in Russia seizes control of Danone and Carlsberg operations

How does this practically work? Russia fires all the executives, replaces them with their own and redirect the profits? No impact to the remaining employees?

Hazdaz ,

Probably something like that. Heck, probably most of the local executives are Russian, so they were probably in on the government take over. Now they are running the company for Putin. Danone and Carlsberg deserves to have their operations taken over since they decided to continue to run their business in that company.

Damn dude, hope you’re doing ok. Things don’t sound great if being stranded at sea sounds like a better time.
