Absolutely, and for a national security type payload that's both a requirement and enough to make a decision.

That's a limited market though. I won't eat my hat, but I will be surprised if for example Viasat would choose to go on Ariane.

When you can get a mature and reliable rocket faster for less money, the value proposition for Ariane 6 starts looking pretty weak.

If an immigrant with no connections or local references (probably no papers on education or other things either) can take your job, it might be a you problem.

That's just for tax evasion

That looks like a timeline

Poverty has also been the source of some of the most improbable recipes. Well, we really have nothing else to eat I guess we will have to eat this. 100 years later it's a local delicacy that everyone hates but you "must try it"

Accidentally ended up with two packs of denniskorv in the fridge and I really wish they too would have disappeared 15 years ago. Not even the 5 year old who would live off of hot dogs if we let him will touch it.

In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

Then I might be lying. Was all convinced I saw it at ICA, but can't find anything online now 🤔

Unless they imported something under the radar maybe it was the "plant b+tter" I was thinking about.

My colleague was quite adamant that it was vegan butter he had used for the cookies he brought.

That split system is how it works where I live. Obviously it's quite difficult to have competition for the infrastructure. So I can choose who delivers power (well, I mean it comes from the same grid. But different companies buying power from the same spot market charge you different amounts 🤷) but the infrastructure is a monopoly. Not only do we pay a fixed fee for the infrastructure, but also a transfer fee (and taxes, and also taxes on the taxes)

So in the end I pay more for the infrastructure part than the power consumption.

Recently I have been seeing "vegan butter" in the store. How this is not margarine eludes me. But my vegan friend assures me it's completely different.
