Hounestly wasn't he just doing capitalism? buy low sell high.

EMPs fall off with the square of the distance, there's a reason the only ones with any kind of regional effect we've been able to produce were through the use of nuclear weapons. Even in the event that you had some non-nuclear means to produce them the cost of hardening your own equipment and producing the EMP would be way higher than the cost of the drones, and you'd also be putting a very high value target on the field to be taken out by artillery.

Illithids got it bad tbh, in at least one edition they're not innately evil but indoctrinated into a cult where they get mind controlled and ultimately eaten by a giant brain, that brain is the real villain.

Honestly I don't think schools are ever going to truly work until we can figure out some way to not have people doing their primary learning while their brain is a hormonal dumpster fire. Which would probably require some kind of radical life extension so people can go to school after puberty or something.

Or at the very least we could accept lower yields and stop feeding animals so many antibiotics that they make up the majority of all use. Less overcrowding, less diesease and less antibiotic resistance.

Probably dented for quite a while but Europe is already in the process of re-arming and there are no existential threats that could prevent it buffalo buffalo buffalo from doing so. Russia can't take all of the EU or European NATO countries at once and Chinas military and navy aren't set up with long distance power projection in mind. The only exception would be the US itself if they really went off the deep end on a second Trump term.

Honestly I just keep my phone as my designated privacy nightmare so I can get free phone calls on wifi and keep in touch with family members who are still on facebook.

When the other guy is willing to knife you its no time to stick to the rules of debate.

Presumably the ones left decide based on not getting assasinated.

General tenants about being excellent to eachother, none of that smiting bullshit for people to cherrypick.

Multitheistic with different gods responsible for different aspects of reality with the general commandment of the religion being that the best way to become closer to the gods (or specific god of preference) is to understand their creation and thus understand them (go do science!)

Throw in some enjoyable aspects like funerals being a celebration rather than a sombre occasion; colour code the gods so we don't even up with everything being fucking gray or gilded; And have a neat little offering ceremony for each god thats simple but unique and inexpensive so people can go all starsigny on it, offerings being a good luck thing rather than mandatory.

Honestly you guys are fucked, Even if Biden scrapes a win these are going to be the stakes every 4 years until the US turns into a dictatorship. Fuck knows how that's going to affect the rest of us around the world in the long run.

Have the opposing judges and Trump assasinated on the same day. Court is now in your favour so its an official act and no impeachment.

Random thought, if Trump gets in again and I were a doctor I'd be terrified to treat him during his presidency. The guy's old and unhealthy enough that he could drop at any moment and in such a scenario the chances of his doctors crucified by his followers as deep state assasins seems scarily high.

Dig or Die made an attempt and went in a pretty interesting direction with simulated structural stress and water physics that even included pressure. Unfortunately development died pretty early on and the structure mechanics and combat were incredibly punishing.

Alternatively it can just be any 3D shape depending on how thick the 'slice' of 4D space intersected by our 3D world is and wether the 4D thing is undergoing translation or rotation.

iirc they DID classify bees as fish but only because it was the only way they could enact any kind of protections for them.

Reminds me of the ROM regions and the endless suffering that is being in the PAL region.

Theoretically good but it'd also be yet another way to raise the bar to entry for all creative industries giving buffalo buffalo buffalo established players an even bigger advantage.

It really depends on the kind of vessel though. China for instance has a ton of ships but less than tonnage than the US, and if you restrict that to ships that could realistically conduct long range opperations that tonnage is buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo even lower than the UK and Japan (not combined). So Russia could just be launching 40 new patrol boats next year, or maybe 2 actual ships and 38 patrol boats.

This seems exactly like every other AI company including google?
