In context, a large proportion of what are referred to artisanal miners have no choice but to dig for cobalt as other economic opportunities are few and far between. While the Chinese may have funded the building of roads schools and hospitals the DRCs mineral wealth has been used as the...

Apologies if this post is considered abusive. In China, LFP batteries dominate, accounting for approximately 70% of EV battery deployments. In contrast, LFP's share in Europe and North America remains modest, at 8% and 9% respectively...

That's really nice, handle detail is lovely. Is that done on a CNC?

Good for you. For myself the person, is for the most part immaterial. Unfortunately, for me the manner in which they choose to converse and deliver information has a huge impact on my propensity to pay any attention to them. I will happily discuss at length with anyone who's views do no marry...

Presumably what is considered civil would be nothing short of agreement with another's views? The bar for what is considered abuse must have become extraordinarily low! Being presented with information that is contrary to that which another provided is now abusive. That's new.

False and misleading - In 2022, lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide (NMC) remained the dominant battery chemistry with a market share of 60%, followed by lithium iron phosphate (LFP) with a share of just under 30%, and nickel cobalt aluminium oxide (NCA) with a share of about 8%...

That's what this lot are up to! Welcome to the 21st century.

Not quite as aesthetic as the above but saved from the fire and will be used as floor boards in my upcoming job of adding a floating floor above the compacted hardcore in my lean-to/shed/storage area down the side of the house. Collected from a nice chap quite local to me who'd had it on ebay...

Nice bench, built mine earlier this year. Having something solid to work on is life changing when it comes to enjoying making things. If my wife had big enough feet I might well steal her bin shoes to go to the garage in. As it turns out, I'm usually trying to establish where she has gone to in...

The Trump administration agreement had them withdrawn by May 2021, Biden administration delayed the withdrawal until 11 Sept 2021. The Trump deal may well have been flawed, but if that time line was followed the US and allies would have been withdrawn before the collapse of the Afghan gov in...

Asked and answered, just not to your silly criteria asking to set aside any nuance. I believe I have made myself fairly clear and stand by the content of my previous posts.

That article show the problem with the US Congress, there was no one there saying you must blame one, don't get caught up in nuance and details.

What's the question in you post below?

Trump administration negotiated a deal, and from what I can establish delivered on that deal while still in power. If you want to argue the contents of that deal and decide that any decision made after the deal and subsequent consequences are solely attributed to the negotiating of the deal...

Attached. It is literally called an "agreement to bring peace..." to refer to it as a surrender agreement is inaccurate, and to my mind a distinguished general would likely understand the difference in resolution through peaceful negotiations, and surrender which generally implies a defeat. The...

Well if you want to work out the percentage of responsibility that arises for each occurrence that happened from commencing negotiating a peace deal and the last boot leaving the ground, feel free. I certainly have no inclination to, or feel there is anything significant to gain from it.

I don't believe either is accurate and unlike gender, life is not binary but full of nuance. Nether is close to the truth because the ignore all the nuance. And by ignoring the nuance you skip over too many of the important facts. That, in essence is the entire point of my posts.

Surrender often results in peace agreements, but peace agreements are not always a result of a surrender. It is an important distinction to make.

That's not what I said to suggest blame can or should only be apportioned to one administration on this topic is misleading. Nothing about percentages or fairness so I'm unclear where you've got that from.

I'm suggesting referring to a peace agreement as a surrender, is distorting facts.
