Would guess they are trying to puncture whatever keeps the pontoons afloat. I know nothing about the bridge pontoons though, but seen plenty of helicopters with lots of holes in them

Metals are made of crystals, they usually defourm along the grain boundaries and fatigue cracks also grow along them. By eliminating those boundaries you reduce the chance for fatigue cracks and make the overall blade stronger.

Also lots of other places (YouTube as an example) allow you to migrate your account indefinitely, over a decade after they were purchased.

It doesn’t have to necessarily be $1000 per month, it should be the minimum amount of money needed to have food, clothing, shelter etc. just enough to live off. For me £1000 per month is plenty for where I live.

It also isn’t just about encouraging higher pay, knowing that workers are not longer worried about putting food on the table when they are voting to strike might influence management decisions on redundancys or workplace safety.

For people who earn 100k, and are living at their means (i.e, spending that amount of money on better food, housing, clothes and other luxurys) it would be a big jump but for the people who would most benifit from ubi it would be more manageable.

It’s not that it makes 110 k jobs immediately available, it’s that is gives you more leverage with negotiating pay as if you walk away you are not under threat of starving to death. As you would potentially be if you had no income between jobs.

The bunker busting part is almost too effective, going straight through the thing you want to blow up and then exploding further away
