Vi ska inte betala för andras dåliga beslut

EU-länder har en skyldighet att säkerställa att elektricitet kan flöda fritt mellan medlemsländer. Man får inte hindra export av el om det finns kapacitet för det.

Eftersom Sverige godkänt EU-reglerna kan tyskarna ignorera energiministerns kritik och krav. Istället för att hjälpa oss sänka priserna kräver de ökad överföringskapacitet mot Europa.

Att notan för dåliga beslut på kontinenten skickas till Sverige är alldeles för vanligt och måste få ett slut.

Svenska elkonsumenter som redan betalar extra för att kärnkraften avvecklats här ska inte tvingas betala mer för dålig politik där.

De som ansvarat för kärnkraftsnedläggningen borde betala priset vid valurnan. Om detta inte sker kommer den dåliga och dyra politiken fortsätta.

@xDiorCS @hobshy 9 out of my last 20 games where matched up against blatant cheater duos “boosting” to 25k. They only played scout and went 40-50+ kills etc. I got demos saved but then again what do I know; they might have really good gaming chairs and a lot of rgb

@xDiorCS @hobshy You’ve must have been lucky or it’s based on elo. Been playing premier for a while, but as of recently it’s been impossible to play. Playing at ~24k you get constantly matched up against duos of which one is either unranked or around 25k. One obvious tell is completely new accs

During the construction of the iconic Golden Gate Bridge in the 1930s, a unique safety net system was employed to protect the workers from falls and accidents. This safety net, often referred to as the "Bridge Builders' Safety Net," played a crucial role in ensuring the well-being and security of the construction crew.

The safety net was a remarkable engineering feat in itself. It consisted of a vast network of thick nylon ropes intricately woven together to create a strong and flexible mesh. The net spanned the entire length and width of the bridge, positioned directly beneath the workers as they carried out their tasks at dizzying heights.

The primary purpose of the safety net was to catch any workers who might slip, stumble, or fall during construction. The net's construction and strategic positioning allowed it to absorb the impact of a fall, significantly reducing the risk of injury or fatality. Its installation served as a constant reminder to the workers of the potential dangers they faced daily.

The net was suspended from a series of steel cables attached to the bridge's main supporting structures. It hung approximately 10 feet below the workers, providing enough clearance to cushion a fall but not so much as to create an excessive free fall distance. Its placement was carefully calculated to strike a balance between safety and practicality.

While the safety net was primarily designed to prevent falls, it also facilitated the movement of materials and equipment across the bridge. Instead of having to lower heavy tools or components down to the ground level, workers could drop them onto the net, where they would be retrieved and repositioned as needed. This ingenious method not only improved efficiency but also reduced the risk of objects falling onto the ground or into the water below.

The Bridge Builders' Safety Net proved to be instrumental in protecting the workers during the construction process. According to historical records, it saved the lives of 19 men who fell from the bridge during its four-year construction period. These fortunate individuals would have faced almost certain death if it hadn't been for the net's presence.

The net was constantly maintained and inspected to ensure its integrity. Any damaged sections were promptly repaired or replaced to guarantee its continued effectiveness. The workers had a sense of security knowing that the safety net was there to catch them if they ever lost their footing.

As the construction of the Golden Gate Bridge neared completion, the safety net was no longer needed. Its removal marked a significant milestone, indicating the successful conclusion of one of the most ambitious engineering projects of the era. However, the legacy of the Bridge Builders' Safety Net lives on, as it serves as a testament to the ingenuity, dedication, and commitment to safety of the workers who built this iconic structure.
