Cruise missiles have higher range than rocket-powered missiles. Many drones like the Shahed are better characterised as cruise missiles, and they certainly aren't millions per shot. This missile attack almost certainly cost Ukraine much more to repell than it cost Russia to execute. Sending a bunch of cruise missiles at Ukrainian cities forces Ukraine to divert valuable air defense capabilities from the front.

I think it's funny you not only included Ticketmaster in that list, but you out it first.
Taiwan is the closest part of the first island chain. The first island chain consists of Japanese, Taiwanese, and Filipino islands that are all western-aligned and could be used to blockade the entire Chinese coast. China sees this as a strategic vulnerability. Taiwan also used to be part of China. Combine all that with the "century of humiliation" narrative and you create the political conditions for an unwavering determination to take Taiwan as a way of reclaiming their spot on top. I doubt it has anything to do with industry, economy, or resources. It's just political narrative. Taiwan could be a barren desert. As long as their flag looks different and they're cozy with the west, China would still want to conquer them.
Damn I forgot about dre.
I mostly don't. Maybe this isn't the kind of answer you were interested in. I think memorable experiences are transient and are more beautiful the more fleeting they are. The more I try to immortalize some moment, the less I feel I'm able to enjoy it in the moment. There are some exceptions. I keep recipes in Google keep. Most of them I just know how to make but I might need my memory jogged for a measurement or temp setting. I also have a small notebook I use as a gym journal. "Journalling" seems like a stretch for the chicken-scratch numbers, though. It's mostly so I know how much weight to use next time I go.
Oh yeah. My knowledge of how to make 3 perfectly flat surface plates will rebuild the origins of precision.
A lot of cool projects on here. I'm not actually a programmer so everything I've done is little more than a script. In high school, I taught myself python by solving project euler problems. Many of them involved prime numbers so I got increasingly good at making prime number generators. I was really proud of getting it down to just a couple lines of elegant simplicity.
They're not asking all of NATO for security guarantees, just the US. I think they should look for the "coalition of the willing" to base tripwire forces in Ukraine post-war. That will make a more credible deterrent for Russia than "we promise to help you if Russia attacks". That credibility is exactly why Russia is against European forces permanently based in Ukraine.
I think that's not telling the whole story. I would argue the main factor is atomization and social isolation which have increased over time. COVID also launched a lot of apps and probably got some people hooked. And I think hooked is the right word. I think door dash is designed to be addictive. Has restaurant service quality decreased over time? I haven't noticed a very significant drop in quality.
Then add the slurry to the beef stew
It doesn't matter. Nobody is going to be convinced by anything you say. The protesters won't be especially hurt by a really good burn. You could yell gibberish into the megaphone. The important thing is that you are there, loudly showing your support for the drag queens.
Pictured is mainly the shoe unit and backing plate for a CNC internal grinding machine. The quill sans wheel is on the right. The single point dresser is mounted to the shoe unit. This is a picture taken before re-fitting this grinder to grind taper inner ring bores. This grinder wasn't meant for that so I took a picture for reference while we discussed what modifications were needed.
