  • Great news! I hope it happens but I won't be holding my breath. The US has gotten really bad about this kind of action over the past 20 years.

  • "Bases", when the majority of them are an office building with 20 people or less in it. Then there's the ones like "Corinto (Nicaragua)" with no information listed and when click the base location turns out to be in the middle of the water with literally nothing there. Seriously, show me where this supposed base is. Perhaps its hiding in that little tiki hut on the beach or maybe it's packed away in someone's backyard shed?

    The US has a lot of bases, there's no denying that, but there are most definitely not 850 of them. That database is pure propaganda.

  • Of course the MAGAts are calling for him to resign, they're nearly as mad at him as the Democrats! I'm not sure what it's going to take for voters to wake up and stop re-electing these geriatric politicians but it needs to happen. We can't move forward as a nation with all of these oldsters clinging to power and applying yesterdays thoughts and solutions to today's problems.

  • Mmm yes, I remember these days!

  • Can't find a link to the story right now but this happened at base in Iraq or Afghanistan. MP was instructed to fire a warning shot at truck that didn't look like it was going to stop for the gate but the MP shot and killed the driver instead. I can't remember if the truck blew up or if they found the explosives in it when they searched it after the drivers death but either way if the MP hadn't killed the guy they would have had a truck bombing in the base or at the actual gate.

  • You are going to have to decide how much risk to yourself and your family you are willing to accept. If you really want to do this then stop contacting the local authorities and go up the chain. In the United States I'd walk into an FBI office with a full copy, not the originals, of your files along with a typed up description of every detail including what happened when your FiL and yourself tried calling it in to the local authorities.

    In the UK it would seem to be the National Crime Agency as they are the ones that handle Organized Crime however they say that they don't take reports from members of the Public. They want people like you to give your information to https://crimestoppers-uk.org/give-information/forms/give-information-anonymously and then let it percolate through the system.

    If you don't want to do that or nothing happens when you do then I'd suggest going to a Solictor and discussing the matter with them.

    Edit: It's very strange that the UK's national law enforcement doesn't have an official Government engagement point with the public. In the US you can directly contact nearly all of the Federal Law Enforcement agencies including the FBI, Secret Service, US Marshalls, DEA, BATFE, ICE and many more. Hell even the CIA will take phone calls from the regular public!

  • I think I misunderstood the comment that I replied to. Sorry about that. 🤷

  • Meaning more local production and collection.

    That is incompatible with global trade.

  • I don’t think humans can live in that very long either.

    Humans have been living in places like the Sahara, which is even hotter, for millennia. It's uncomfortable and requires adaptation but it's perfectly doable.

  • Noreika asked if the government could potentially bring a charge related to the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA), to which Wise replied: “Yes.”

    This is eyebrow raising since it comes so closely after the release of the FBI file alleging claims by the owner of Burisma Holdings that there was a payoff to Hunter Biden.

  • I do hope that the strikers get what they are asking for however this AI stuff is inevitable. AI written scripts performed by AI Characters in full virtual space is going to happen. Oh sure it will suck Donkey Ballz for the first 3-4 years while studios get a handle on the tech but it will improve rapidly.

    The porn studios are already playing with this this and I predict that in less than 10 years the people over at !aigen@lemmynsfw.com will be cranking out full length pr0n movies using OSS tools.

    Unless computers go away this trend is unstoppable.

  • Native population growth is ALREADY curbed in nearly all Indusrialized Nations and places like the US are only growing due to immigration.

    The global population keeps climbing because of under and still developing countries...and even in those places their rate of growth is slowing.

    Globally the population will hit max around the year 2100 but many rich nations already heat peak population and are now declining.

  • Gallium and germanium can be had as byproducts of the refining of aluminum and lead IIRC.

  • It’s really NBD, we have the ability to make our own and so do many Euro countries. We just didn’t bother because it’s a dirty process and China did it cheap.

  • Women, unquestionably.

  • I hadn't thought of it quite that way but I suppose so. American's do seem to have a nasty habit of not wanting to teach our children about things we don't like.

  • Huh, duckdns was one of the very first integration I did with my HA installation. It was pretty straightforward to setup using these directions and it's been super reliable.

    Wireguard was also pretty straightforward using these directions and it too has been very reliable.

  • You don’t get to take over every space your eyes fucking see.
