definitely would like some explanations and sources. I am guessing plutonium must be used as a nuclear battery, but 1/2000 seems too high a chance for explosion considering how safe they usually try to go with.

I do not find this post uplifting. Is this like some thing I do not get because I am not american? cause this seems to be just a product launch

til. I knew of the hairstyle, but did not know it was a law. I probably guessed that it is something that royality does, and rest of people just try to mimic it, but never quite thought of why everyone would do that.

any idea what is happening? on the right side a person is either measuring something around head, or some other procedure (but does not seem like a barber), and also there is some registeration or something going on in the middle, so is this outside some court (as in royality) or like a hospital?

Dog plow in Belgium, WW1, 1916

size of animal which is feasable in a environment is determined by largely 3 things (besides general genetic limits) - climate, food availablilty, and any predators. within tundras it is very beneficial to be big because your surface area to mass ratio would be less (you lose heat through your surface, and the total heat you produce is roughly proportional to your mass). So most tundra animals grow big.

my guess with dogs being prefered is that 1) they are available, 2) humans have history of collab, 3) they are also predators. last is important, as 1 of the reasons to go out is to catch some prey, and dogs are good predators. goat might fit other 2, but does not fit 3 (their pray is usually very sparse, and almost always 'vegitative'). In areas where there is hardly any other pray (like himalyas), dogs are not raise because their hunting skilss are useless. Yaks (fancy bulls) are raised because they can carry load, and also you can use their "side products" (hair in summer, and milk more generally)

sorry, completely went past my mind. I read a peaceful scene and just stopped reading for some reason

sorry i did not quite get your point.

i guessed horses wer not available because of the great war, and hence I went to straight human plowing, but yeah, i guess most able men were also conscripted

forgive my ignorance, but why? was belgium (or this particular region or this person) a cattle-poor nation at that time? I understand dog sleds (well wolf like, but sure) in tundra, because there aren't any cattle like animals, or horses. maybe yak in some places, but belgium is geographically flat euro land (so a bit cold, but definitely has cattle). Like my problem is not specifically why no cattle, but why dogs? because dogs are fairly weak for plowing, and human plowing is very much a thing. It is definitely labor intensive, but human would be faster.
