Once Iran escalated to blocking Hormuz they started stepping on a lot more toes. As for the abstain rather than voting either way, my guess is the wording of the resolution goes too far but a veto supports something they won't support. Neither...

Which legacy would you be prouder of: "Mick West, creater of the /Tony Hawk's Pro Skater/ franchise of computer games", or "Sir Mick West, who rid the world of UFO reports"?

I'd like to know the flow network for the Iran-sourced missiles, as the path from Iran to Russia surely must have stalled. And that doesn't favour Russia.

If "those who care about good science don't like what I'm doing" is a "win", there's little more that needs saying. Not that arXiv has ever been a particularly good arbiter (in particular in physics), but if they're ejecting your stuff you must...

I can see it alienating the misophonic community...

Yes it is interesting. China would benefit from normal shipping operations resuming as early as possible. I would not expect a veto but by abstaining they perhaps intend to insert themselves as unbiased mediators toward any future peace deal by...

It's a win/win situation. If they put the paper back, then it's a triumph for woo believers everywhere over the gatekeepers of Big Science and another step towards disclosure. If the take down other papers, it's the evil gatekeepers of Big...

Dr. Villaroel has multiple prior VASCO papers hosted on arXiv, including submissions to the "astro-ph" category. The previously accepted papers employed the same methodology of the papers now rejected. Careful, Mr. Mellon, the solution to that...

not sure how much it matters, but is it interesting that Russia and China abstained? <i dont follow UN stuff much, so that is an actual question. The United Nations Security Council adopted a draft resolution condemning Iran's attacks on Gulf...
