Ska man hitta de bästa casen måste man titta där ingen annan letar. Här är ett litet norskt cleantechbolag som opererar mot oljedrillers. Vem är investeraren som investerar i den motsägelsefulla nischen? Jag har kikat på det i alla fall. Ser spännande ut.

A whole lot of organizations and politicians do not understand just how minimal their 'reach' truly is on X. It's not what Twitter was. You are shouting at bots and right-wingers. Nobody else sees what you do there. Daily users are down, time on site is down, and the algorithm is hostile to you.

The #Roman military hospital (or Valetudinarium) in Novae, #Bulgaria.

Novae was the site of an important Roman #fortress along the Danubian border.

Like other major Roman fortresses on the borders of the Roman #Empire, this fort had its own hospital.

Å peke på det problematiske med å bruke borgerkrigsretorikk og hundefløyter er en sånn gøy deltidsjobb jeg har hatt de siste fjorten årene uten å be om det, det blir liksom aldri gammelt men av og til så er det nødvendig å forklare enkle sammenhenger og synd for dere i dag er en sånn dag igjen.

The Tomb of the Diver can be found in what was the ancient Greek city of Poseidonia (Paestum to the Romans).

Discovered in June 1968, the tomb contains five different frescoes. Thought to date to roughly 500-470BC.
