They.are.the.worst.

He created a small supernova contained by an energy field that requires similar power than what is used by CERN..

Das geilste in der Diskussion ist ja: Es tun alle so,als ob Lilium eine Alleinstellung hätte.

Bis auf große Claims die tlw. physikalisch unmöglich waren und gutes Lobbying mit netten Partys für Politiker war wenig von denen besonders.

Volocopter hat im Gegensatz zu Lilium einen flugfähigen Prototyp, einen Usecase der realistischer erscheint (Volocopter wird in Rahmen div. Behörden und Organisationen mit Sicherheitsaufgaben interessiert beobachtet, die ADAC Luftrettung hat z.B.schon vorbestellt) und lügt mit seinem Marketing-Sprech nicht ganz so,dass sich die Balken biegen. Funktioniert aber auch seit Jahren noch nicht.

Interessanter Weise hat Bayern hier damals die Förderung abgelehnt, genauso wie der Bund sich weitgehend raus hielt. Ganz ohne Presserummel. Mittlerweile stehen v.a. DB Schenker, Geely und Daimler hinter dem Unternehmen.

(Was übrigens nicht heißen soll,dass ich nicht auch hier viel für Bullshit halte oder Volocopter Fan bin - aber das so mit zweierlei Maß gemessen wird,ist schon krass)

Agalmatophilia

It's the paraphilia of being sexually attracted to statues. Like stone marble statues.

Glaub mir - willst du nicht. An Rauchvergiftung sterben ist ein richtig mieser Tod. Richtig richtig mies.

Been there,saw that. Zu oft.

Das halt eine richtig schlechte Idee

Yeah,I absolutely got that, but simply wanted to point out that whatever he might have breathed in then could not been "much worse" in the grand scheme of things back then.

And, by today's terms everyone was a smoker back then - public smoking was so omnipresent back then (and cigarettes much more harmful - I just say asbestos filter) while todays smokers are exposed to less toxins, that even non-smokers would be considered low intensity smokers today in terms of toxins. Crazy, I know, but on the other hand I had 3 weeks of smokers cough as a child after flying Bangkok to Zurich as a child - in the row closest to the smokers section.(Thanks Swissair)

Not only till 14 - until the late 70ies there was a LOT of shit going around and even through the 80ies.

But: I remember reading some studies that there might be a link to (even subacute) blast concussion and frontal lobe dementia as well as prolonged exposure to certain stress hormones.

I am unable to find where I read it, though.

Nevertheless you might be in the clear. Or get it from our own world of toxins(PFAS,certain nanoparticles)we don't understand fully so far. Or don't get it. And depending on your age there might be a drug available by then to slow progress down massively.(There are a few very good concepts in animal trials atm, if we are lucky we might have something available in 15 years).

Hard to count - the war was fought with A LOT of nasty carcinogenic things. From lots of cigarettes, to omnipresent asbestos, to lead in basically everything, to exposure to cancer inducing germs, to radiation (radar!). And of course LOTS of alcohol.

It's a wonder the generation lasted that long and their offspring weren't mutants.

Yeah, that worked totally well for the Guano and sodium nitrate businesses.
