Or that he’s so gung ho on trying to settle Mars.

Isn’t FIFA widely regarded as one of the most corrupt organizations on the planet? I mean, the article isn’t wrong, but that ship sailed a long time ago, it’s a bit late to be acting like this is bombshell news.

Poe’s law strikes again? I do agree it seems very obviously sarcastic, but the MAGAts do seem to score a lot of own goals as well so I can see the potential for confusion.

Go back to lemmygrad, nobody is buying it.

What an absolute joke of a propaganda piece. China might qualify as a threat, but as has been amply shown recently Russia is a paper tiger. A tiny nation armed with hand me down retired military hardware has not only fought them to a standstill but actually pushed back into their own territory and this piece would have us believe they’re some kind of military juggernaut poised to crush the US military.

This is also ignoring the strained ties between Russia and China lately and the close economic ties between the US and China. The US and China might not exactly be friendly with each other, but also can’t really afford to be enemies. Russia on the other hand only exports oil, an increasingly devalued resource, and one that is readily available from multiple other countries.

The specific issue with heat protection is that some counties were trying to pass legislation to provide better heat protection, and the state government preempted that effort by passing legislation banning counties from making heat protection legislation.

This will be the plot of Oceans 14.

They should have just committed to the bit and demanded a googolplex of rubles from Google.

But the leopards weren’t supposed to eat my face!

Oh? What’s wrong with hackaday?

Will that bridge hold? He hasn’t done the math, and other engineers that did say no, but his intuition says it will so we’re all good I guess. Someone should look into this guys professional qualifications.

It’s also just a good policy in general. Anytime you receive a communication that’s prompting you to do something that you weren’t expecting to receive you should ignore any links, phone numbers, replies, etc. in that communication and instead reach out using a known good mechanism. Doing that one thing stops the overwhelming majority of scams in their tracks.

I suppose the real question here is, is Xi bothered enough to actually do something about it, or is this just more grumbling.

Well, the poll is accurate in so much as they really don’t “support” Harris and her policies. If we had a proportional voting system they would be voting for her near the middle of the pack with Trump of course in dead last. She’s just the second worst choice between the two choices we’re given.

A lot of people are answering undecided on polls in protest over Harris support for the Israeli genocide but intend to actually vote for her due to the significantly worse threat posed by Trump. She could massively improve her polling numbers by just committing to stopping arms shipments to Israel and imposing sanctions on them.

Not quite every Democratic voter as it’s only 50%. Every Democrat and a majority of independents said he lies since that was 2/3rds and a bit over 30% of the population are Republicans with another about 10% being made up of right leaning independents.

Instead of wasting effort to put 3rd party candidates onto a ballot they can never win on that effort would be better spent trying to get proportional voting enacted so they could actually win.

If anything people living in a dictatorship are even less responsible. At least in democracies the people have a theoretical say in things to a certain extent. Not only does the public not have a say in a dictatorship, but they often don’t even have the option to leave it. E.G. China confiscating their citizens passports to prevent them from fleeing the country.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I thought Europe also had sanctions in place against Russia at this point now as well? Seems likely this would be an issue in pretty much any NATO country not just the US.
