Maybe the police are just fans of not burning the place down, plus once one of your "brothers" tosses a bomb at you, I'm guessing you stop caring about their cause in a hurry.

Reply to comment by Reselects420 in India’s overall exports crosses an all time high of $750 billion by Falls_stuff
> Pakistan is a nuclear power with a GDP per capita only a little lower than India’s. Is Pakistan a developed country?
But they lack a space program and nearly a trillion in exports. And again "per capita" vs "total" is worth acknowledging, even if you reject its role in defining development.
> Here, I’ll do one better. Iran. Higher GDP per capita than India, space program, possibly nuclear status soon. Are they a developed country? If not, is it just the figure of exports that matters, not the distribution of that figure?
It's the combination of factors, as I've said from the start.

I'm choosing to look at something other than India's astonishing capacity to produce new humans, such as their membership in a small club as a nuclear power with a space program, and VAST exports.
I'm also choosing not to insult you despite your need to descend to that level.

I would point out that per capita GDP is just one metric, not the whole.

Still a developing country though, right? Quarter trillion in exports, a space program and nuclear arsenal.
Developing.

With countries like Cuba the official numbers are crap, look at the excess deaths numbers, which was 550 per 100k for Cuba.
Worse than the US.
They just lied! lol

Why would you have an expectation of your license plate being private? Its whole purpose is public display!

The article is a LOT less interesting than the headline.

There are curators and there are curators, I believe that the ones caring for art that isn't mass produced crap probably care a lot more than ones looking at the 799'th balloon animal in a series.

My point is that a balloon animal remains a balloon animal, regardless of its noted monetary value or location in a museum. It's a dick move to vandalize things, it's also no great loss to the world that this balloon animal popped.
Both of those things are true.

Matter can be created and destroyed, energy cannot be created or destroyed in a conserved system.
If you present matter with a precise quantity of its antimatter counterpart they'll both annihilate; the total energy of the system will be conserved, but the matter will be destroyed.
