  • every organ is snake

  • i'm sure the techbro right actually believes this

    because otherwise how are they going to take over the MIC if the I part evaporates

  • before vegans get excited they can still generally eat chicken. for some reason they all want boneless chicken thighs (i work at a place that sells food). we can tell when it's a "tick people" order

  • Seems like it's just a shorter Freeze. I think the current debate is more Big Rip vs. Big Freeze. the Crunch is currently mathematically impossible

  • I know I follow it as much as I can. They will absolutely be the nation to do it (assuming there isn't some final, impossible barrier to practical energy production).

    And they will lead the 2nd industrial revolution or whatever we end up calling it. I think that's why there's so much desperation from the U.S. and the west to go to war. It's not purely because they do capitalism better then capitalists. It's because they are on the verge of this energy revolution (bye bye oil, petrodollar, hello commercial reactors in Africa and South America, mutual relationships, etc)

  • i think it will be but only decoupled from capitalism and it's incentive structures entirely. Even if just as efficient as the average fission reactor (which are also not particularly "profitable") the safety and potentially unlimited fuel supply once spun up would make it superior. It will have a potentially fragile fuel cycle at first. And it will never be as quick to deploy as a good solar panel or simple to make as a water wheel or basic generator, this will require an advanced and forward thinking and planning state apparatus.

    But there is the potential for scale. scale that could only be matched by a hypothetical megastructure like a space based solar array.

    and even if it turns out to truly be a bust for effective power generation there is always use as an advanced space drive

    The first nation to actually pull this off will be equivalent to the first to the industrial revolution or oil refining.

  • lol love the

    "we have total confidence in our good boy" while simultaneously scrambling to find replacement

  • you know you can just smoke/vape 5x less material, right? i'm personally not a fan of the "high THC-A % at all costs" commercial grows and there is a wonderful variety of 3% or less CBD hemp or type 2s with 4%

  • wallstreetbets is one of the few places on reddit where you can see some genuine discussion outside the astroturf/Elgin botnet.

    you just have to ignore the casual ableism and veneer of "4-chan, but lib". they don't sound like redditors there.

  • damn NYPD is going to have to put an overwhelming majority on their terrorist watchlist now

  • still waiting for those molten fuel MHD reactors

  • hey that top right one was me at 24 some luck huh

    took 10 years to fully recover

  • Boeing trying to claim another victim i see

    also i'm not a fan of those space-x suits they look kind of cheap. like latex bodysuits or something

  • i keep seeing messages for individuals with supplies to stay away because they are disrupting the large scale efforts. so not sure what to believe.

    i know firsthand that there are FEMA staging areas and such in the Piedmont.

  • i had a more coffee cup shaped glass cup i used only for earl grey (the only tea i like). it was my approximation of a Picard cup so i could say the thing

    partner accidentally dropped it a few mos ago maybe i'll have to track this one down

  • wonder if the propaganda value is priced in?
