This isn't going to be accurate, it's ignoring a key aspect of the heat that will be generated, friction. When designing materials for prosthetics we have to be aware of how much friction occurs between the material and skin. If the amount of friction is too great, the material can create enough heat to damage tissue.

The formula for the skin friction coefficient is cf=τw12ρeue2, where ρe and ue are the density and longitudinal velocity at the boundary layer's edge.

Tbh, I would love to see it. But our railway infrastructure is dog shit atm, and we wouldn't be able to expand the network fast enough to accommodate something as luxurious as a railway hospital until much later.

My first goal would be to expand the network to the point where cars are unnecessary for the vast majority of my citizens. This would both increase rail traffic to acceptable levels and help alleviate the unnecessary healthcare cost and harm of motor vehicle accidents.

Become my peon, every peon gets healthcare and can apply to drive an electric train. Me -2024

I too have thousands of reasons why I shouldn't be in charge of a country, however I do have one good pitch.

My appointment to dictatorship would be guided solely by autism. I guarantee my powers will only be focused upon my two fixations that deal with the general public, trains and healthcare.

If made supreme leader I will not only make the trains run on time, there will be more trains, more hospitals, we would even have trains that can take you to your job at the hospital. I would shape the perfect world for me, and vicariously a more efficient and safer world for you.

Command Senior Chief

The person who came up with the scheme is also the most senior NCO on the ship. All the enlisted people in charge of monitoring that activity knew, they just knew not to ask questions.You would be surprised how much pull an E-8 or E-9 has in the military.

According to the Regan administration perhaps, but not according to intelligence agencies from several European countries.

Again, a reductionist interpretation. There's been a lot of conspiracies over the years due to so many groups initially claiming responsibility. However the trial held in the UK and a recent one in 2020 both point to the same culprit.

I think you may be talking about the bombing in Germany.

Either way, the point is that Gaddafi has sponsored over 15 violent paramilitary groups in other people's countries. Not exactly going to be winning a lot of friends on the global stage by doing that.

This is not what stable leadership looks like ...

that 1) NATO did, in fact, make a move on Gaddafi

Not something I ever disputed? Would be kinda hard for a rebel force to get a cruise missile.

2. the West supported him when it was beneficial but turned on a dime the minute he stopped cooperating.

This I don't really agree with as it's a bit of a reductionist mischaracterization. Gaddafi literally funded terrorist attacks on the US in the 80s, which led to about 15-20 years of political disruptions between the two countries. They normalized relations again in the early 00s, with the US eventually going as far as to delist them from the state sponsored terror list in 08.

It would be hard to describe that as "turned on a dime the minute he stopped cooperating". There's a reason why no one in the UN, including Russia and China UN vetoed the resolution.

That also overlooks all the times western powers were friendly with Gaddafi. They didn't mind him following his ascent to power, nor in the post 9-11 period when the U.S. and European countries restored diplomatic ties with Libya, and Western oil companies re-entered the Libyan oil sector.

That was my point about him swapping out friends sporadically. Gaddafi had massive swings in political alignment throughout his time as leader of Libya. The reason nato/un could actually make a move on his government without greater political ramifications is because he's burned every bridge across the political spectrum.

Was Gaddafi a supervillain then too, or did he only become one when his interests were no longer aligned with the Western powers?

Literally yes...... Is it that surprising the west would work with a crazy despot that has a bunch of oil?

He certainly played up to the role, presumably for egotistical reasons, but most of it was sabre rattling bravado.

My dude, this ignores like 40 years of him being the most unhinged leader in North Africa. He's always been a wild card on the global political stage, swinging wildly from befriending revolutionary leftist, and then immediately dumping them for right winged dictators.

The man literally tried to sell surface-to-air missiles to a street gang in Chicago...... No one had to make him seem crazy, he was crazy.

Now that doesn't mean I think the US should have intervened, but I don't think anyone had to really do any work to make him seem like an insane supervillain.

Yeah..... This is a bit sketchy. Pharmaceuticals aren't just something that an amateur can make by following step by step instructions. Even something as simple as baking a cake requires some basic experience to know when things are going right or wrong.

Even maintaining the calibration on a CLR requires some background experience, let alone building and programming one all on your own. With your actual reactor being as small as a mason jar, it means the margin for error is going to be small as well.

This is neat for people with a background in chemistry, but I don't really see it as anything but dangerous for the general public. They also are fudging their math a bit to make things seem a lot cheaper. Reagents can be really cheap at bulk prices, but you have to spend the time looking for them, and they aren't equating the cost of a trained chemist making these medications.

You are using the people claiming there is a genocide as the source for the claim.

That's typically how investigations work.... There's an accusation, and then an investigation to find evidence that supports the claim. They aren't using people as a source for the claim, they're using the evidence the people gathered.

You on the other hand seem to be focused on who gathered the information instead of what they gathered.

Welcomes** the outcomes of the visit conducted by the General Secretariat's delegation upon invitation from the People's Republic of China; commends the efforts of the People's Republic of China in providing care to its Muslim citizens; and looks forward to further cooperation between the OIC and the People's Republic of China.

This is anecdotal evidence from a political organization that has a well established history of ignoring the plight of specific Islamic ethnic minorities, including the Kurds in Syria and Turkey, the Ahwaz in Iran, the Hazaras in Afghanistan, the 'Al-Akhdam' in Yemen, and the Berbers in Algeria.

Over 50+ UN member states (mostly Muslim-majority nations)

Again, anecdotal evidence which does not detail the accusations, nor how their experience contradicts that accusation.

The World Bank sent a team to investigate in 2019 and found that, "The review did not substantiate the allegations."

Using this as "evidence" is just academically dishonest. The "team" was a single bank manager, and the "investigation's" scope was solely to insure that a 50m dollar loan for 3 different schools were not being used to commit crimes against humanity.

The bank claimed that the specific schools they investigated did not substantiate the allegations, however they found enough to decide they wanted to minimize the project.

"In light of the risks associated with the partner schools, which are widely dispersed and difficult to monitor, the scope and footprint of the project is being reduced. Specifically, the project component that involves the partner schools in Xinjiang is being closed."

China’s mass imprisonment and forced labor of ethnic Uighurs in Xinjiang amounts to crimes against humanity—but there was insufficient evidence to prove genocide

I think you are forgetting the accusations of the population control of an ethnic minority. "The 1948 Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, which lists birth prevention targeting an ethnic group as one act that could qualify as genocide."

Comparative Analysis: The War on Terror

Again, a logical fallacy. Just because America has participated in genocide does not mean that China cannot also participate in genocide or crimes against humanity.

Who is driving the Uyghur genocide narrative

Another logical fallacy.... You are attacking the man, not the evidence or argument.

He relies heavily on limited and questionable data sources, particularly from anonymous and unverified Uyghur sources, coming up with estimates based on assumptions which are not supported by concrete evidence.

The vast majority of the evidence he's gathered for his peer reviewed study are gathered directly from public data released by the Chinese government. There have also been some data from a leaked cable, which have been validated by multiple investigative bodies of journalists across the world.

As materialists, we should always look first to the economic base for insight into issues occurring in the superstructure. The Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) is a massive Chinese infrastructure development project that aims to build economic corridors, ports, highways, railways, and other infrastructure projects across Asia, Africa, Europe, and the Middle East. Xinjiang is a key region for this project.

This is a biased interpretation of materialism. A similarly biased claim based on materialism would be that the Belt and Roads initiative motivated china to ethnically cleanse a region vital to the initiative.

On a personal note, I don't think the lable of genocide is really important. What is important is that an ethnic minority is being abused by a State. And while there is a lot of misinformation and politicing surrounding the topic, there's still an alarming amount of data that suggest China is forcibly assimilating an ethnic minority group.

white supremacists who came up with the verbiage you don't like in the room right now?

Nah, just their legacy....

no real reason to split hairs

Not ignoring one of the largest crimes against humanity = splitting hairs...... Interesting.

don't want to be associated with white people, I guess. I would call that racism honestly. Would you call that Asian supremacy?

You do realize you are the only person separating people based on skin color? My wife is German, I don't hold her country's past against her. But, if she was a Holocaust denier, or attempted to become a Nazi apologist, things would be different.

"OUR SLAVERY ISN'T AS BAD, AS THOSE YUCKY WHITES!"

The internalized guilt is strong with you....

I don't know that Muslims are white tho... So that's not very careful about language.

Islam is a religion you idiot, it's not a race, or an ethnicity......Also, you are the only person legitimately utilizing skin color to categorize people. I don't care what your pigmentation is, that's not the thing that makes you a racist moron.

don't generally split hairs on enslaving people to make a racist argument that my people are better in some way

We're not talking about modern people, nor are we blaming modern people for their ancestors behaviour. We are examining the crimes historic people did to other historic people, which do vary in different degrees in scale and violence.

The racism you are accused of isn't because of your people's past, it's because you are still utilizing the same racist classification system and justifications that led to their crimes in the first place.

would I prefer being an Asian woman being group raped by Asian men until death, would I rather be castrated and worked to death in persia, would I rather he worked to death an whipped on a plantation, would I rather be a house slave for the Ting (which by the way they said they were very nice to their slaves and I bet they was never a bad experience!), would I rather be a Chinese space to the Khan?

Lol, a lot of writing to admit you just don't care about the suffering caused by chattel slavery in America. I didn't claim that there weren't horrific versions of slavery in east Asia, though you are exaggerating certain aspects. What I claimed is that there is a difference in scope and cruelty, compared between the two, which is just a fact.

none of them sound like a race is better than the other,

Lol, still about race for you huh.

you are making a racial argument based on the nuances of slavery and it's kinda silly!

Lol, ethnicity does not = race you fucking idiot.

The whole point of this is that race is construct that can't be used to actually examine the ethnic prejudices that happened in a specific area at a specific time.

Racist

Says the person defending an argument developed by white supremacists.....
