You're telling me 200 ALLEGED adult professionals are involved in a scheme where some 19 year old cybercriminal has access to classified nuclear weapons systems as if that's any indication of a better situation than critics allege and you think you've got sober and thoughtful take to offer on this situation, do you?

US' Privacy Act of 1974

it's just political theater mostly to provide the appearance of "doing something" while also providing a new excuse for why high prices are still high and continue to rise

certain political figures and their supporters just need a story to tell, it doesn't have to be particularly accurate or even coherent for their purposes

bunch of submissive in the sheets CEOs? as long as we're operating on feelings and emotions here the whole thing is dimwitted bullshit psychological theory

i don't understand your point if there is one

Is this business

The Chinese don't really use facebook in the first place do they though? And facebook's utility to China is the same as TikTok's, just less direct: manipulating Americans and other non-Chinese users of Facebook. It seems like people want to be manipulated though.

He changed his tune on electric vehicles after Musk started backing him.

Nah, it wasn't him.

Way more fun to enable every game for every account. Literally. Limited horizons.

Matchbox were made of metal too, not mostly plastic with minimal metal like many of today's toys for children. I gave some of the ones my little brother and I played with in the early 1980s to my neighbor's kid last year. They were a little scratched and scuffed in places but that just added to the versimiltude. They had all the wheels and the hoods and doors and other moving parts still move and close.

What if Russia cut the normal radio with a crew of dispensable third-worlders dummies like you suffer from a DEFICIT OF IMAGINATION

Michael Jackson "bad" or... These seem people friendly like government is supposed to be.

It will make you very high. Not necessarily in the same manner or experience that "normal cannabis" does but most of those products do contain synthetic terpenes and isomers of delta-9 or what they market as "delta-10" or other product names. Paired with CBD in the admixture they can approximate the natural cannabis experience

Aeroponics is probably a more realistic solution given the levels of water. As long as you could finely control the ratio of dissolved solids there's not much of a benefit for hydroponics perhaps beyond thermal insulation over aeroponics I think. I am not an expert though. Perhaps there's something I haven't considered though like external pressure for the plant's root vascular system provided by a hydroponics reservoir over aeroponics.

Who among us are not savages fucking lol

The logging ban also has the effect of preventing road construction and other ancillary development that always seems to follow. I think there is value to the logging ban beyond just the direct effect on trees.

The article mentions that China has a military base in the east of Tajikistan and touches on Chinese attitudes towards islam and their behavior internally (in Xinjiang for example) and externally in Tajikistan. Russia appears to be unable to prosecute their own defense let alone the defense of "allies" as Armenia found out.

Why don't I get to choose the voice I interact with. More and more it feels like "AI" is gonna be a 1%er gate-kept corporate curated "experience" with significant guard-rails and fences and walls and moats and signs telling me to keep off the grass.

The wealthy and powerful will again monopolize this power for their own benefit despite AI being the product of the sum of human technological civilization.

As a brief aside, I think "Inuit" is the preferred term for people mistakenly called Eskimo.

MRSA has some benefits to consider alongside its detriments. It is capable of surviving on surfaces so you could apply it to a surface that your target interacts with and be relatively confident that it will be viable when the target contacts it. It's common, so it's not some sort of exotic bio-weapon that screams cloak-and-daggers: you can get MRSA in a hospital even. I think it's pretty resilient too so once your target has contacted the MRSA simple hygienic practices wouldn't neutralize it like taking a shower or bath.

But as far as I know it is very treatable by knowledgeable medical professionals if caught early so in that sense it's not a guaranteed attack-vector and a poor choice for an assassination. Depending on a target who doesn't visit the doctor until too late, maybe less of an issue.

What a smug greasy post. I can't tell if you're in favor of MIC or not, what a failure on your part.

"Just following orders" huh? I can't believe I'm being offered Will Smith analogies as apologia for an actual genocide. This is one of the most of awful (in all senses quality, content, intention, execution) posts I've ever read in my entire life.

You completely forgot about the humans in your "human shields" after the first clause of your sentence.
