At some point, reasonable people conclude that when reality stands in stark opposition to their thought model, they are wrong and need to correct their thought model. People like you appear to be highly unreasonable, to the point of mental disorder. Hence, TDS.
This is the second reply you make to me on this topic where you clearly don't read my original post.
Let me repeat it.
>And as for the rest, "illegal wars", etc irrelevant moralizing, vae victus.
Strong do what they can. Weak suffer what they must. Which is why Russia try to do what US does and more as to not have to suffer as weak do. And US does what it can to stay strong to achieve the same effect. Moralizing doesn't work in geopolitics because of its utter irrelevance. Which is why most people on the planet who haven't been completely insulated in ridiculous propaganda bubble of modernity that tries to assign geopolitical actions on a "good vs evil" dimension generally don't subscribe to this model of thinking. It's highly unnatural.
That is the function of healthy demographics. They have more young workers than old workers, which means that consumption part of the economy is able to consume everything that is produced without the need for external markets. At the same time, the older generations who have the money have plenty of investment opportunities in the same younger people, so foreign investment is equally irrelevant in most fields.
It's a microcosm of world economy on its own. No other large country is in the world has this, because demographics are very unhealthy across most of the world's major states.
We're all glad that this amazing truck with crane in the back works for you.
Most people however do not need a truck with crane in the back, even if it's really convenient for you heavy mover. Most people just want a basic sedan with good mileage.
I suspect that being a professional, if India signed on to the various treaties it rejected in the past, he would.
That's why he's getting things done that others that came before him claimed to be impossible. His relationship with his electorate reminds me of how Korolev solved the closed circuit rocket engine problem in USSR's space program. Instead of all the old guard people who told him that is impossible, as has happened in US with the same issue, he went out of the rocket scientist community and brought in a jet engine designer. Who made an engine everyone else derided as "impossible to make".
And that's Trump. The man whom the old guard hates, and who does things that others think are impossible.
You know, sometimes people tell me that Russian trolls aren't a thing.
Then I get someone like you, who is trying to pretend that things like budgets are the primary defining features, rather than results. When was the last time you remember US pulling something like Crimea? If anything, we know that Russians have capabilities that even US lacks, such as ability to enact bloodless coups. As we have seen with Ukraine, US led coup went bloody real fast.
And as for the rest, "illegal wars", etc irrelevant moralizing, vae victus.
If you think Russia isn't trying to do at least as much, I have bridge on the Moon to sell you.
As for being allied, that's about alignment of interests first and foremost. And for the time being, US interests remain firmly aligned with those in Western countries. Trump's election didn't change that. The only thing that it changed in equation is the opportunity costs of the others, increasing them, while still keeping them well below the benefits.
For an incompetent man, he appears to be getting a lot of things done that were found to be undoable by his (assumedly) competent predecessors, in record time no less.
It's honestly getting pretty sad to watch just how badly Trump Derangement Syndrome warps people's view of observable reality. You can seriously dislike his platform. Hate it even. But you don't get to pretend that he's not accomplishing his goals, because he clearly is.
They'll tell US to get fucked, again, just like they did so many times during last half a century?
Remember, India is the only major state in the world that still hasn't signed up to things like medical patents, which had so much force behind it when it was pushed, even China bent over, and that was when China didn't yet have catastrophic demographics of today.
Same applies in reverse. There's a reason why India has been the stickler in all global negotiations on trade for last half a century. They don't need the world trade. Their economy is self-contained, able to consume what it produces because of its healthy demographics. Example of this is in the fact that even China was forced to sign up to medicine patenting and payment regimes, as China needs foreign market access, and that was one of the fields powerful enough to actually get China cut off.
India still hasn't. They told the world powers insisting they sign or else to get fucked. And they do to this day. Which is why the "fake medicines" are overwhelmingly produced in India, and most of them are about as good as genuine stuff, and there's nothing that patent holders can do about it in spite of massive efforts both on their own part, and on the part of their parent states.
India can afford to walk away from essentially any negotiation on trade should its interests dictate it does so even when threatened with massive economic sanctions. It's unique among all the major states in the world in this ability.
In my country, you'd get the same message. Of course, that would be after you'd waste entire work day first sitting in queue for an hour in hallway full of sick people for nurse to ensure that you're not just there to waste doctor's time. Who will, after figuring out that you do actually need doctor's time, book you time after midday with doctor's.
Who will make the exact same commentary as US doctor would in this case. This will cost you around 40-50 EUR + wasted workday. Bonus points if you actually catch something serious for waiting for hour or more in the same room as a lot of sick, coughing and sneezing people.
Or you do what any employed person around here does. Go to private sector and get it handled within an hour.
The question wasn't "when are they going to hire more men". The question is "when are they going to start hounding the women out of these professions" as is the case with male dominated fields.
And no, we don't need more diversity hires in kindergartens any more so than we need them in engineering. If anything, we need less of them, so that people who actually can do the job best can get it, and not just get discriminated against by racists and sexists.
Fun part being that this "authoritarian regime" is repatriating powers to regional actors, and "not caring about human rights" while doing a whole lot less assassinating of its citizenry people abroad. All while being in open opposition to China, making any co-operation potentially trigger sanctions.
Do you even realise you're spouting Ministry of Truth level material here?
Since when is small amount of carbon monoxide vented upward a problem in massive volume of CO2 and H2O? Overwhelming majority of CO prevention is done with automation handling burning process anyway, just like it is now done with SO2 and NOx. Modern computerization allows for burn control that is near perfect, and CO, NOx and SO2 do not form when temperature control is tight enough.
That said, I'll repeat that many CCGTs are certified to burn refinery gas and/or light oil distillates, and such plants typically do have catalytic converters on exhaust.
That would be Denmark, which uses Norwegian and Swedish interconnects for its peaking after its national policy failed in a critical fashion, and they simply could not keep their national grid up on their own. Germany outsources its peaking primarily to Polish coal plants. It's what fuelled the recent boom in building up coal capacity in Poland near German border.
Speaking of Denmark, Swedish and Norwegian grid operators recently (last year) informed Denmark and us Finns that they're unilaterally demanding control over who gets to produce power during which time in all Nordic grids. Fingrid, our national grid provider literally reacted as it should have: "ok, no problem, we'll import from Russia and Estonia as well as activate the mothballed plants, and you can go fuck yourselves, or you can sit down and negotiate, because remember, we're not Denmark, and don't depend on you for grid stability". Danish? They bent over and took it up the ass. They have zero options because of their policies. Best part of the whole brouhaha was that according to Fingrid, Swedes and Norwegians got told that according to Finnish law, it's illegal to surrender this sort of grid control to a foreign entity for reasons of national security. Their reply was literally "so change the law". Now that they have the Danes bent over backwards, they genuinely thought that we'd bend over too.
Note to anyone who things globalism is a universally good thing. At least realise that it's critically important to have the most basic requirements of modern life controllable locally: power supply, food supply, water supply etc. If you lose that, others will take advantage of you.
Literally, no. According to my information, which should be up to date, overwhelming majority of CCGTs in Europe burn gas low enough in sulphur content that they in fact do not need catalytic converters, because particulate exhaust they produce is non-existent.
Exceptions are multi-fuel installations that can also burn light oil distillates and CCGTs that are certified to burn refinery gas rather than natgas.

Last time they did it to google, they left China. I would suspect that both parties learned something from that experience.
Goolag?

Hypersubsidized, with massive penalty taxes on everything else, yes.
Otherwise, no.
