Look on a small scale I could afford speeding tickets easily but I can’t afford to have my license suspended after x number of them so I don’t speed very much.

How many French died on behalf of the US during the revolution ? In Haiti it was about 20 percent of the overall casualties.

“ Ernst Dieffenbach, who visited the Chathams on a New Zealand Company ship in 1840, reported that the Moriori were the virtual slaves of Māori and were severely mistreated, with death being a blessing. By the time the slaves were released in 1863, only 160 remained, hardly 10% of the 1835 population”

Why would people sacrifice time for a better home for their family? I guess love for their family?

I live in a big city not the suburbs. No traffic it’s twenty minutes to the office but during 7-1030 am and 2-7 pm it’s 45 minutes to an hour and 5. I listen to a lot of podcasts and happen to be learning Italian as well. Podcasts are not popular at all in Italy and I can only assume it’s becUse of what you describe with the lack of commute. I’m glad to be fully remote now.

The Japanese started planning their revenge on the US since commander perry forced them to open trade. The US has a history of creating cassus belli like mexican war and Vietnam etc but what you link to is propaganda. And WW2 we had a clear cassus belli for Japan. Japan not only did things more evil than any other force on the planet I’ve ever read about in history as listed in the rape of Nanking but never faced any real consequences from paying reparations or apologizing and even today it’s full of the equivalent of Holocaust deniers who continue to spew falsehoods in defense of the poor Japanese who were only trying to liberate Asia from imperialists

My uncle flew Cobra helicopters in Vietnam and the us developed a new anti air system and he was supposed to fly against it to demo its effectiveness. I don’t recall the story well but he flew nap of the earth and in a certain manner he knew would counter the aa system and embarrassed the hell out of the bluefor test team and engineers who said he cheated. A friend in the army did an excercise at Bragg where Special forces made him and the other guys attached into opposing force to hunt them down. My friend and his team circled back from the trucks and climbed in the bed and when the sf got tired of looking for them and came back to the truck my friend popped out from under a tarp and simulated kill with miles gear and they said he cheated as well. I guess there are a lot of egos and sore losers in the military throughout history.

National file is not a reliable news source and I don’t see the part where ars defended him. National file is incredibly bias right wing propaganda. Will you refute this with a quoted article from infowars?

Very cool! I plan on using this with my oculus quest and the wander app. It uses google street view imagery in VR and I walk around cities around the world since I love travel so much but there was something missing and this was it! I’m going to Reykjavik tomorrow in the app and listening to Reykjavik radio at the same time.

I have gone from 33% body fat to 22% in 7 months. It has been purely through moderate calorie restriction but eating the same stuff. I used to swim and do CrossFit and it was so hard to lose weight because I would inevitably have an injury that would prevent me from working out and would lead to weight gain until a few weeks. I have been unable to lose weight for 12 years because I focused so much on exercise and diet when really just doing diet was the key. Once I get to my goal body fat percentage I plan on starting exercising a lot again but until then it’s just 8k steps or so a day. I do agree people try diets to avoid exercise but most people I know do both when trying to lose weight.

I guess it was 18 months before being reduced to 12 months during the guys course.

“ Russia approved the vaccine after trying it on several dozen subjects in a non-blind study and ahead of Phase 3 trials, which are key to establish its safety and efficacy, drawing skepticism from the international community and accusations it could have jumped the gun for political gains.”

I thought I was on Reddit for a second. This is some m’lady level edgelord stuff.

Yeah I have to have the desktop app running and am initially thrust into it before I can launch steamvR

A friend of mine met him and said he was a sour puss as well but still amazing man. Can’t blame him really.

Ok that’ll be x more years testing then.

No he’s saying drug makers who stop the financial crisis caused by covid deserve profit

-“ Just give me something that does A B C and doesn't show me ads and I would be happy to pay for it!!!", well I guess until you are actually asked to pay for it).”

The level of snark in your comment is really unnecessary. There are many valid points in the comments on why we are upset but you’d rather just straw man us instead of acknowledging thosey or even leave the snark out and make your case.

Areas with the highest covid death rates voted for trump does that mean his covid policy was sound? Minorities like many vote against their own interest. Good people on both sides. I will give you the prison reform thing but that was Kushner and trump later expressed regret for it, and it was pandering.

Slowing down the testing. Children in cages. Family separation.

Why even have a conversation then?

Modern Egyptians have almost no dna connection to ancient Egyptians. They are descendants of migrants and invaders. They are also poor custodians of their own treasures. The Malawi museum was looted and wiped out in 2013 in Egypt. When I visited in 2016 I had people offering to take me to climb or explore the pyramids by bribing the guards. https://www.cnn.com/2017/06/22/health/ancient-egypt-mummy-dn...

Thermal IR doesn’t pick those up.

This seems like it would be the same outcome. One rich and one poor and split it evenly and it will always end badly for the poor person even if they win.

Yeah unless it’s your teenage daughters Mac and they just took a picture of her changing and are going to blackmail her with it.

The problem is if someone is able to activate your camera even if the light comes on 100 percent of the time, without a cover they’ll see something and will be able to capture that. Hey this guy hacked in and is seeing naked wife or my taxes on my desk or something else sensitive - the light isn’t really going to stop that. If you really don’t believe me go stay in a hotel next to defcon and use the hotel WiFi naked.

My apartments reached out to me to offer same price lease which has never happened before in any apartment. Good luck!

My two cents: I own one and bring it to family gatherings to record family. It’s small and non threatening and people don’t react defensively the same way they do with iPhones. I also take iPhone pictures and video but I like the video I get from the GoPro also.

I’ve also carried it with me when documenting something like going for a walk in my daily spot and going to mundane places. I usually do this before I move to a new place to capture those simple things I want to remember about the old one.

Again no one reacts the same way as if you’re walking towards them holding a phone in the record position and I like the video I get from it.

But I also used it on a hiking trip to big bend and it was nice to capture the hike passively and enjoy it without feeling the need to constantly stop and take pictures.

I agree why else build a circular wall but to keep animals and enemies out unless they had animal skins draped and that was the walls to support the roof?

Semantics are crazy here. This is their new hoax to me means “Democrats are taking this and blowing it out of proportion.” How long did Fox News spin this as a conspiracy and just like the flu and all is well before things got very bad? Where are the test kits? Why was South Korea able to recognize and respond with massive testing early but the US is not? And regarding his China shutdown he was shat on because it was too little too late not because it was considered too extreme. How many weeks or months were people unable to get tested unless they met too strict criteria? How many people came through us customs from Italy during its outbreak without an eyebrow raised or basic questioning? If we want to play Monday morning quarterback had he ordered screening early enough we’d be 10 times better than we are and maybe we could have contained it.
