Our legislation is unambiguously ;)

Yeah. Freedom of opinion is no obligation to agree.

Yeah, I belong to a species that is supposed to be social. As a loner I am not quite as much social as many others, but I am to a certain extent. But it doesn't mean that I have to agree to every nonsense only because certain people think and claim it would be a "good" and "right thing", and...

Well, I'm not an activist, sociologist or psychologist. Which means it is not my job and not my mission in life to worry about opinions and definitions regarding social imbalances and sensitivities of people all around the globe. As you mentioned, I drive trains. That really changed my...

I think it's like the debate regarding "social equity" or being "rich". One will always face different point of views, perceptions and strange allegations. I have different perceptions and point of views regarding these things, which might not be very popular within certain circles. And it...

I don't think we are greedy. I think we are ambitious for wealth and enjoyment, just like any other ambitious nation on the globe, and those to come. Germany is not bad. Germany is my country. I don't see an intelligent explanation why it shall be bartered away uselessly. It seems to be an...

A fake humanism and violation of our laws, based on the strange idea that we are responsible for everything and everyone, results in the oposite of its intention. It divides our society and empowers extremism.

Yeah, neither you nor me supported the NS dictatorship. Nor did we start and lose a war. We are also not responsible for the crusades or the hunt of the mammoth 😉 Borders have a sense and a purpose, on both the large and our private small scales. It's not about the best or sane way. It's...

IMHO our biggest problem with immigration originates in the strange mindset of certain people, that have no use for our constitution clause 16a (as well as what borders, border controls and armed forces are there for), and don't know the world map very well. It's actually a social issue that...

I think the US or China can "afford a lot". But Russia not quite so. Before we do any more welfare in Germany, I would like to see some more budget spend for our armed forces and comprehensive border protection, followed by support of strong industries. But that's a different topic.

They can do whatever they want, if they can aford it. I think Russia can't, in the current situation.

They are not in war with Ukraine and the West and therefore have the wherewithal to produce such things (or rather prototypes) 😉 It's very unlikely to see that MiG-41 hypersonic super fighter any time soon, not to mention serial production. It's a pipe dream.

Even if it would be real, it is very unlikely to enter serial production I think.

Yeah, but, well, I would expect this from Boeing/NASA in 2024 🤷‍♂️

I'm not even sure if Buran was really meant to be flown with a crew onboard on a regular basis. It had a crew module, but wasn't scheduled to fly with people onboard on its second flight as well. IMHO the Buran program seemed to be one of these things to politically show that "we can do such...

In the 2020s NASA and its contractors are at least capable to demonstrate robotic flight of manned systems 👍

So we got New Shepard and will get new Glenn. Next: New Armstrong? :cool:

Revisiting Discovery. Looks as if it flew just last week...
