It's not that crazy if you're not committing to all-out war. Even if you bomb someone into the stone age, you still can't control their territory without boots on the ground. Then it's a land war, and people build defensive fighting positions, and the trench is very effective.
(Reuters) -Hopes are fading that Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi and his foreign minister have survived a helicopter crash in mountainous terrain and icy weather, an Iranian official said on Monday after search teams located the wreckage.

Probably not at all. I'm no expert on Iran, but I'm pretty sure I've never heard about the president of Iran on the news at all. Ayatollah Khamenei, on the other hand, plenty of times.
Problem is that asteroids are very hard to see, as they are both cold and dark, meaning they don't stand out against space very much at all. And even a micrometeoroid poses a risk even when traveling at low velocities (e.g. someone orbiting earth, the meteoroid itself has a relatively high velocity). Getting hit by a 1cm meteoroid at warp 1 would be devastating.
Their theory of atoms was also that they were indivisible, being the most basic building block of all matter. Obviously now we know that that's not true.
They described a lot of things, and were wrong more often than not. Their biggest contribution was really just progress in the scientific method itself.

Babies are both very fragile and very resilient. For example, bones don't start hardening and fusing for several years, so they can take a lot of bumps and such. I haven't read the article, but it's possible that the wounds were just grazing.
Israeli soldiers appear to be using the Turkish-Palestinian Friendship Hospital in the Gaza Strip as a br for military operations, and, since March, also a school in the village of Juhor ad Dik, which is located about one kilometer from the border with Israel and was destroyed in the Israeli attack on the Gaza Strip, indicated...

And if it's a repeater, it will halve your bandwidth. Actual mesh APs are a bit better, but you're still taking every packet and rebroadcasting it. And if the device only has one radio, I don't think they can listen and transmit at the same time.
I don't know any specifics, but a bunch of ropes divides the force on each one. A bunch of ropes, plus people pushing from behind, would probably be enough force to overcome static friction without exceeding tensile limits on any one rope.

I'm 33 as well and I know who he is, despite never seeing any of his performance.
But you know, you could open the article where presumably it gives the context. It's better than a comment that only serves to make you look like an idiot.
Yeah, they've been industrious for decades. Not much choice when your natural resources are mostly mountains and minerals. Before the split, most industry was in the north and agriculture was in the south. In fact, the Kaesong industrial complex on the border was built to allow both countries to benefit from their resources (SK having money and NK having cheap labor).
Leafblowers are used to collect it into a pile which is then raked/shoveled into a bin. The blower is much faster and less effort than the rake at collecting everything into the pile.
Although if there isn't that much, I suppose letting it dry and break down in the local environment is better than putting it in a landfill. If there's a lot of it, then at least in cities I've lived in, they can and do ticket for putting yard waste or shoveling snow in the street.
California State University placed Sonoma State campus President Mike Lee on leave Wednesday after he agreed to protesters’ demands to involve them in university decision-making and pursue divestment from Israel.
“Yesterday the President of Sonoma State University aligned the campus with BDS, a movement whose goal is the destruction of Israel, home to 7M Jews,” Wiener wrote on X Wednesday. “Several other UC & CSU campuses are doing this more subtly. Sonoma State simply said the quiet part out loud. The mask is off.”
"The mask is off" is right. Weiner doesn't care about the 2m non-Jewish people in Israel, or the 35,000 people in Gaza that Israel has killed. Weiner is clearly a Zionist on the side of genocide.
Hamas did actually fire mortars at the beach before the pier was anchored, targeting the IDF. I don't think they're going to fire at the pier itself or any other militaries.
