What’s that, the company infamous for being restrictive as hell in regards to usability, interoperability, repair, and even infamously went to court to defend their right to throttle their consumer’s hardware capabilities to force them to upgrade isn’t supporting their legacy hardware?
What.
A.
Fucking.
Surprise.
Sooooo. Stellaris with a Star Trek flavor?
I’m on board.
That’s because windows will run on a box of rusty rocks, and works with just about anything and everything. There may be the occasional crash, but the OS WILL run.
Mac OS only runs on their own proprietary hardware that it’s optimized for, and got help you if you have to integrate it with ANYTHING AT ALL.
I will die before I use Windows 11.
“Upgrading” from 7 to 10 was already painful enough.
I wish someone had trained me how to use a buttplug. Could have saved myself a huge pain in the ass.
If he loves Russia so much, we should deport him there, and nationalize all his assets since SpaceX is a critical security apparatus and he’s clearly the foreign agent of a hostile power.
They’re committing treason now.
They committed it in the past too, but they’re also doing it now in real time.
Sounds like Twitter needs some obstruction of justice charges and for some people to get arrested.
Ban corporate landownership.
Full stop.
We shouldn’t just be giving a measly 24 billion.
We have something like 3 and a half THOUSAND Abrams tanks sitting in deep storage at army bases in the desert. This is the only use case for them between now and the heat death of the universe. Let’s get some fucking good out of them and send them to Ukraine.
I don’t care that we have laws about exporting them. Change the fucking laws and give Ukraine what she needs to protect democracy in Europe.
Even if war with China happens, that isn’t going to be a “we need those 3500 Abrams more than we have in active service” war. That’s going to be a “We start pumping out planes and CV(N)s like it’s WW2 again.” war.
Yeah, he should be dropped into a pit and never see the light of day again. What a fucking monster.
Russia is nothing but hot air. Their threats are worth less than the oxygen they waste speaking them. Send Bazoum anything and everything he needs, and if Russia makes a goddamn peep about it, we just do Khasham 2.0.
It’s almost like he made a bunch of promises and then the democrats deliberate self-sabotaged so that they wouldn’t have to actually fufil them.
What’s that, we can’t fix the senate because the parliamentarian said so? I guess the filibuster is insurmountable then. It certainly isn’t like we can just ignore or replace said parlimentarian.
What’s that, rather than using the clear and unambiguous means of forgiving student debt, we’re going to use a method that the Republicans can easily block with a lawsuit that goes to their bought-and-paid-for Supreme Court? Guess you’re stuck in debtor’s hell forever.
Campaign on worker and union rights but then pass laws to force the railroad workers back to work without striking and without any rights.
Republicans are traitors and Democrats are nigh-on useless, and they wonder why voter turnout looks grim.
I feel like at this point we just go full Spanish Inquisition and burn these motherfuckers at the stake.
They’re a gang.
Full stop.
We couldn’t get them to take the incredibly minor action of wearing a fucking mask so that they wouldn’t die of the plague. No way that we get the complete societal overhaul necessary to survive and mitigate climate change.
The Republican party is an existential threat to the continued existence of the human species.
They must be stopped at any and all costs.
I don’t know why I keep needing to repeat this, but I DON’T THINK IT WAS SPACE ALIENS.
I’ve been pretty clear about that from the start here, although I guess after re-reading my first post in the thread, it was a little less explicit about that fact than it could have been. Maybe I should have put it at the top rather than in the middle, and also written it in 100’ tall letters of fire.
We don’t know what happened in the tictac event, and of the other two, Grusch went full on conspiracy theorist nutjob and the other pilot had a similar but less credible story, mostly in that he wasn’t backed up after the fact by other pilots. David Fravor’s account was backed up by other pilots, and the other pilot to back him up explicitly disavowed herself from being a UFO person, while still backing what Fravor said.
I also focus on that event because it’s the one that had six separate sets of radar on it, so out of all of them, it undoubtedly has the best sensor readings of any of the ones we know. The radar tracks that Fravor describes, with the tictacs descending from 80’000 feet down to sea level in a matter of moments, if released, would either immediately validate or discredit his claims, and the fact that it happened across so many different sensor types and systems also means that in the astronomically more likely event of it being some weird atmospheric phenomena that we’ve never scientifically documented or validated, also would have much more data to begin preliminary investigations with.
Like that’s the real benefit here, is the scientific research that can be done, and the collation and collection of the data about these events under a single roof where it can be looked and expand the boundaries of human knowledge. If these phenomena are as common as the two pilots allege, then it’s something we need to know about, for the simple purpose of making air traffic safer if nothing else, and if they are lying through their teeth, then releasing the radar tracks proves it. Either way, it should be done.
If the CIA was the cartoon supervillains you seem to think that they are, then Assange would have been hacked to pieces with bonesaws or drank some polonium tea ages ago.
The cruelty is the point.
Their end goal is a population of moronic wage-slaves who are living a barely subsistence lifestyle that will believe anything told of them rather than challenging the wealth, power, and right to rule of the ruling class.
They aren’t just conservative, they’re regressive. They long for the days of Feudal lordship with themselves cast as the lords.
