Looking at Wikipedia's list of wars by death toll[0], it seems that people were capable of massive casualties and destruction without fossil fuels, too. Like the Taiping Rebellion in 1850–1864, with a death toll of 20–70 million. The Mongol invasions in 1206–1368, with a death range of 20–60 million, and the Three Kingdoms period in 184–280, with a death range of 34 million.
Why or when wouldn't one consider hydropower a renewable energy source?
It would be interesting to know what ultimately happened to the bolts if they indeed were removed.
When I disassemble something, I do as I was taught in my mechanical class in high school, and always keep all parts I take of in the same box. If I am left with some extra bolts when finished, that would be a worrisome sign.
Facebook Norway AS did, however, only have a revenue of about 6.6 million USD in 2022, with a profit of 3.6 million USD, according to https://www.proff.no/selskap/facebook-norway-as/oslo/reklame... . They have 27 employees. The revenue from Norway are however much bigger and was speculated to be 233 million USD in 2021: https://e24.no/naeringsliv/i/A3r1Mz/facebook-bokfoerte-bare-...
The fines seem to be leveled at Meta's local company in Norway. As I understand it, fines are not deductible in Norway.
(I am not an accountant, and my company has never gotten a find, but looking up this in the accounting system I use, it seems it is not deductible: https://kontohjelp.fiken.no/as/medMoms/7799?sok=7799 ( in Norwegian)).
The goal here is compliance. So the regulators will first try guidance, then a formal warning, then daily fines, then increasing the fine, fine (local) directors personally, and finally dissolvent of Metas local company.

The article is in Norwegian, but look at the pictures. It must be stressful to have all those read warning lights blinking all night.
I, for one, would love a self-driving rv. I can see it now, first taking a shower, then sitting back on the sofa, drinking a cup of coffee while silently gliding to the office in the morning.
> have the capacity to do 3 attacks like this simultaneously.
No need to do 3 attacks simultaneously. An attacker could have placed explosives there some time ago and the detonated it remotely now.
Formar Naval Special Operator and now teacher in marine engineering and doctoral student at the Swedish Försvarshögskolan, Patrik Hulterström, alleged that "An experienced diver can in theory manage it himself" according to https://www.vg.no/nyheter/utenriks/i/4ozy8o/orlogskaptein-tr... ( in Norwegian).
I do not think ha actually did serve any time. "he was sentenced to 30 months in prison, suspended for four years, meaning he will serve no time unless he commits additional offenses over the next four years." according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Karpel%C3%A8s .
How do you feel about the recent spick in inflation? I have also been sitting on some cash for a year, and its buying power has definitely fallen. I find it now hard to see if prices will fall or wags will go up, so the cash I have will be of less relative worth.

I belive it is normally the one with the most optimistic evaluation that wins. It is called "winner's curse": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winner%27s_curse
