"super expensive infrastructure" that is always going to be cheaper in a city compared to building equivalents in the countryside.

Americas are the two continents. Try telling a Canadian they’re from America.

America is not a continent in the English language.

The Millennium Challenge 2002 is discredited because it had motorcycle couriers that moved at light speed handling all communications and 10' speed boats launching 19' missiles.

Do you have any examples of American expressions young generations are using in French?

It was mostly children. Every child is on the internet and uses the same social medias adults use.

I don't believe there is anything else we could realistically do. This stage of the conflict is about to hit the 2 year mark.

You still vote for the lesser evil? Sitting out only benefits the greater evil, not you. I don't know how to make this any clearer.

> Shahed where originally designed and manufactured by Iran.

I'm talking about mass manufacturing, not design. Russia has had capability to hit any Ukrainian factory since Day 1 of the war, that's why they've successfully dispersed and hidden their production so much. Also, I've always been pro-Ukraine.

>they are always several steps behind Ukrainians.

That's not true anymore, both sides have plateaued because all innovations are quickly copied. Anti-recon quadcopters were another Ukrainian innovation that took the Russians roughly 6 months to catch up to. The only advantage they have is size and strategic depth. There isn't much else.

Russia has the strategic depth to mass manufacture specialty drones in a way that Ukraine cannot. Even though Ukraine used fiber optic drones first, the Russians were the first to produce them in large numbers and it took Ukraine months to catch up. Lancet/Shahed drones are even bigger examples of this.

> How long would it be until their entire fleet is sunk? 2 days? A week?

That's not something you or anyone else could predict.

> How long after that should the Three Gorges Dam be allowed to exist?

This would immediately cause a death toll in the millions and a nuclear response would follow.

No such kill switch exists, the US stopped providing electronic warfare intelligence that made the jets more survivable. The stoppage of all military aid was significantly more damaging.

The reality is that both sides still kill someone begging like that. Both sides are using over at least a 1,000+ drones a day and yet only 1-2 videos of this nature come out every month.

I don't see that happening. They're too simple and too effective for any military to ignore. The bomber drones cause more casualities than any other type of drone and most of them are just commericial off-the-shelf drones with very simple modifications.

It doesn't matter if you build skyscrapers for over a century if you don't build enough of them. The only places in the country where rent is actually going down is where housing is actually being built in any significant numbers. Austin builds more homes in a week than San Fransisco does in an entire year.

Rent is 5k because the supply isn't meeting the amount of demand.

That factoid is because Muslims are obsessed with the name, and you will find someone named Mohammed in the majority of Muslim families, not immigration. It doesn't take much for the name to enter the top 10 boy names when they become 0.1% of the population.

You could get a dummy HDMI plug for $3 on Amazon and free up that monitor if you need it. [1]

But nothing was done to Room 641A? What imaginary limits are you talking about? All the lawsuits went nowhere.

If you are an American, the intelligence community already treats you like you are the outgroup.

It's meaningful because it's one of the few things congress could actually pass. You can count on one hand the number of bills that passed this year with that kind of support that wasn't something like a budget bill.

The app was shutdown a couple of hours ago in the US and this was the message all TikTok users saw when they opened the app.[1]

The same guy who pushed for a ban massively last year, is going to save the app despite the security concerns he and most of our government said they had. If only we knew what happened in that classified briefing that made them vote together across party lines.

Are there any other services or companies besides ByteDance affected by the bill?

Douyin is comepletely separated from TikTok. The apps cannot legally be the same. They do not want their citizens and foreigners talking on the same platform.

Why single out legacy media for this specifically? This isn't something newer media is better at.

Thousands of combatants are wearing bodycams, and pretty regularly, there are videos released by Russians of a dead Ukrainian's last moments taken from their corpse and the same happens vice versa.

Could you rescale the model to fit an iPhone 13 Mini?

The Epic store might not've been slow, but it was missing so much. It was launched with almost no features, not even reviews. They also didn't have any communities/forums/groups.

They could get away with it because there was no competitor like Steam.
