Can’t wait to see what Donnie Deals plans to unleash on our satraps, given the grab bag of Tech Creeps and startup scammers involved.

Curious to know what the cost per kwh is going to be for these things.

I hate the US and Russia equally

If I were a native or neighbor of one, I might hate it more than the other, merely due to proximity.

I dont think anyone is saying we should invade Russia.

I seem to recall a bunch of anti-Russia hawks saying exactly this when the invasion happened in '21. The US, the EU, the rest of the Asiatic continent - they were all told they needed to team up and crush Russia, once and for all.

Now that the US has collapsed into a fascist regime marginally sympathetic to Russian white nationalism, the Keyboard Commandos of Reddit don’t really expect Cheeto Mussolini Von Putinkisser to take the fight to Moscow.

But I’ve also heard (1) Putin is senile / infirm / on death’s door and regime change in Russia will come any day now and (2) The Russian military is absolutely on the brink of collapse, so another year or ten of drone skirmishes will be the end of the entire Russian armed forces with a bit of patience. Just a few hundred more billion to Ukraine will be the end of the Russian army absolutely for certain guaranteed. So we never really needed to invade directly, just finance an endless parade of mercenaries to get the job done.

90% of the world online scammers and hackers

It’s crazy how these major tent poles of the modern internet - Facebook, Google, Twitter, and Microsoft - are all centered in the United States, but never bare any responsibility for the malicious traffic on their networks.

It’s crazy how Iran deciding to start taking fees for shipping is a blockade, when the entire national business models of Singapore and Panama hinge on their ability to do exactly this.

They’ll get him eventually

It was a freak petrol fight accident…

harder to believe the CIA failed to assassinate him

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CIA_assassination_attempts_on_Fidel_Castro

The 1975 Church Committee claimed eight proven CIA assassination attempts between 1960 and 1965. In 1976, President Gerald Ford issued Executive Order 11905 banning political assassinations. In 2006, Fabián Escalante, former chief of Cuba’s intelligence, stated that there had been 634 assassination schemes or attempts.

They eventually got him at age 92 with the oldest CIA trick in the book - waiting until he dies of natural causes.

It’s no more illogical than any school shooter who ends up killing themselves halfway through a spree

This guy is no less logical than the Columbine or Sandy Hook shooters

All written accounts of God are produced by humans for an audience of other humans.

In the same way that we might describe a storm cloud as “angry” or a sunny day as “cheerful”, one might apply emotional descriptors to an omnipotent divine force in order to personify an impersonal and abstract entity.

Past that, assuming you believe that a divine being is above humanity, why wouldn’t they have emotions? Emotions are a feature of sentience and God is supposed to be a super-sentient creature. If anything, it would experience these emotions more intensely and intricately than its creations. The human rage of a shout or the despair of a cry becomes the earth-splitting eruption of a volcano or the suffocating deluge of a flood.

At the same time, it is the overwhelming longing for companionship that drives a God to form life from the void of space. The intense joy in the creative act leads this fundamental superhuman force to tirelessly build an entire universe. The deep and profound pride and love which brings them among their creations clothed in their own form, willing to endure the humiliation of this avatar form in order to enlighten and elevate their divine progeny to their own level.

Absent these primal emotional urges, why would a God choose to be a God at all, and not simply languish within the darkness for eternity, content to the echoing silence of dead space?

There’s no hard evidence. But some anonymous White House staff have reported the existence of an Erika Kirk body pillow at the Naval Observatory.

The kid was told to shoot into the crowd

At the crowd behind Trump, but not at Trump? And then he got near enough to the mark that he shattered the teleprompter which was right in front of Trump? And kill a guy just off his shoulder?

Come on, dude. Is it really so hard to believe someone sincerely wanted this guy dead?

I’m more inclined to believe this was a deliberate hit job (by, say, the FBI or CIA… or OUN-B) that failed than a fake hit job that succeeded.

Gas isn’t even that expensive

We were under $3 in January and now we’re grazing $5. That’s a significant change for any business that considers fuel a major part of operating costs (like the airline or trucking industry).

It’s that we use so god damn much of it for our car only infrastructure to work

I’ll spot you that - for daily commuting - gas costs probably aren’t a big part of the household budget. But it’s a highly visible price, thanks to stations hosting the number in big bold digits updated daily.

The real cost of this war-induced supply chain disruption is going to be downstream of commuting, though. Agriculture, shipping, and high energy cost manufacturing (steel and aluminium manufacturing, for instance) consume enormous amounts of fossil fuels. Also, increasingly now, Cloud Compute costs, which will impact a bunch of downstream IT businesses.

We’ll see the number go up at the pump and then we’ll see it go up everywhere else.

if you provide enough dark energy

“How much ya got?”

“Well, it’s a purely theoretical substance. But theoretically we’ve got more of that than all the regular energy in the known universe.”

and shape it into a specific configuration

I want to say that’ll be the easy part, but I guess it really depends how abstract of a shape we’re talking about and how malleable dark energy ends up being.

Active or dorment?

traveling back in time is not mathematically disallowed by the general relativity.

Moving mass backwards through time isn’t strictly mathematically disallowed. Idk what it’s going to look like when it arrives, though.

What does a Tachyon even look like?

The Truly Smart Republican will simply lie and say he knows a secret trick to get cheap gas, but he won’t tell you what it is because you’re a stupid lib.

Not very high, yet.

Idk what’s supposed to qualify as “High” anymore. They’re at $5/gal nationally, which is exactly where they were under Biden in 2022. And I was told they were “Too High” back then. But I guess now they’re not, because… ???

Well DUH.

I don’t think a school shooter trying to clip the President so his sempais at Demolition Ranch will notice him is as crazy a theory as “Trump paid a teenager to wing him in the ear so he could…” I’m not sure what exactly? Beat a punching bag like Kamala Harris by an extra point when he was already favored to win?

Like, the guy standing behind Trump did die. This “fake” assassination was using real ammo.
