Have you looked at the comments on Facebook? It is where all the anger and the hate against everything decent dominates. Hate against the government, the courts, the left, the gays, the women, the immigrants, the minorities, the cyclists, etc, etc. It is how Zuckerberg makes money: by stimulating rage and rage bait.
In the US, there was pizzagate. Another example is India, where inflammatory posts on Facebook incited sectarian violence.

Anyway, the railway sabotage by the Dutch farmers is probably indirectly caused by Musk, Zuckerberg, Vance, Trump, and Putin.

But the spokesperson of the Farmers Defense Force does not exclude that farmers may have participated. "They might have, they are very angry."
Perswoordvoerder Sieta van Keimpema van Farmers Defence Force (FDF) sluit niet uit dat er boeren betrokken zijn geweest bij de sabotage-actie op het spoor. ,,Dat zou kunnen, ze zijn heel erg boos. Maar weten doe ik het niet", aldus Van Keimpema, die verder bevestigt dat in ieder geval vanuit Drenthe boeren onderweg zijn naar Den Haag om te protesteren.

Nogmaals (ben jij nou een "scientist"?): de grootte van de bossen maakt niet uit. In Zweden zijn de scholen etc even groot als in Nederland.
Zweden is iets meer internationaal georiënteerd dan Noorwegen denk ik. Dus het begon iets eerder. Maar op de wat langere termijn maakt dat vaak niet zoveel uit. Hier een grafiek over 2022. In dat jaar was de oversterfte twee keer zo groot in Noorwegen als in Zweden. Ja, er zijn ook kersen die ik kan plukken.
Verder zijn er ook altijd grote verschillen tussen verschillende provincies. Hetzelfde beleid, soms te verklaren met demografische verschillen, maar vaak gewoon toeval.

In Zweden zijn de scholen, supermarkten, fabrieken, kantoren, restaurants, bussen, etc even groot als in Nederland. Er zijn maar heel weinig mensen die eenzaam in het bos wonen.
Het verschil is dat Zweden zich hield aan de plannen voor een epidemie. Die werden uit de kast gehaald. De volksgezondheidsdeskundigen gaven adviezen die werden opgevolgd door de regering en redelijk door de bevolking.

Zulke oproepen om de boel dicht te gooien waren er in Zweden ook. Gelukkig wisten de epidemiologen en de politiek daaraan weerstand te bieden.
Het was niet mogelijk om te ontkomen aan dit virus. Men kon alleen de golven iets afvlakken en de verspreiding over het land iets uitstellen.

I had never heard the Swedish word "Gack". Not even in Röda Orm, I think. Sounds like something a goose would say.

So you would need a detector that can distinguish round things from a long thin thing. That does not sound impossible.

Paywall, men jag tittade på https://lazerah.com/faq/ och sajten verkar mest skrivet för investerare.
Jag tittade även på review-artikeln som publicerades i Physica Scripta år 2019. Artikeln har nästan bara citerats av Holmlid. Men det finns en comment av Klavs Hansen och Jos Engelen: https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1402-4896/ad05c7
"The paper of Holmlid and Zeiner-Gundersen makes claims that would be truly revolutionary if they were true. We have shown that they violate some fundamental and very well established laws in a rather direct manner. We believe we share this scepticism with most of the scientific community. The response to the theories of Holmlid is perhaps most clearly reflected in the reference list of their article. Out of 114 references, 36 are not coauthored by Holmlid. And of these 36, none address the claims made by him and his co-authors. This is so much more remarkable because the claims, if correct, would revolutionize quantum science, add at least two new forms of hydrogen, of which one is supposedly the ground state of the element, discover an extremely dense form of matter, discover processes that violate baryon number conservation, in addition to solving humanity’s need for energy practically in perpetuity."

Even those pauline letters are dubious. Some people begin to think that they were written in the second century.

They are afraid for their property value, they are afraid of a population might need a higher level of taxation. Conservatives would build, but only villas that would not be affordable for ordinary workers.
Few local politicians want to invest in social housing. They prefer that the poor live in neighbouring municipalities.

That is just one VLCC (very large crude carrier) per day. But Iran used to export much more, dozens of tankers per day.

It would not bother me if students took the course out of genuine interest, in fact I would be delighted. But in our department we had a summer course in astronomy that many of those students had chosen because that would entitle them to an allowance.

Also, the agency assumes (quite reasonably) that authors get paid for publications in scientific journals. I had to convince them that that was not the case. They cautioned me against publishing anything more as it might jeopardize my unemployment allowance.
