  • I thought there was only one and he's libertarian? Massie

  • Reminder that the US accidentally dropped a nuclear bomb on itself but since it wasn't armed it didn't explode.

    But also the most qualified nuclear inspectors on the planet say Iran doesn't have nukes.

  • I was gonna post this too... Amazing game, combat mechanics in modern games still haven't caught up. Also that ice spell makes the game.

    Literally every battle mechanic in that game was top notch. Think linear single player Mordhau with spells and your character has demon strength.

  • Comparing this to the Blitz.... Fucking yikes, no wonder the guardian broke free of their leash to underline how tone deaf this is.

  • "If you think the world's top scientists are trying to kill you, then why would you listen to any expert about anything? They'll save you from yourself when you're wrong anyway. Would you do the same for them? That's why they're trustworthy, and you and your sources are not."

  • Malwarebytes probably cleared some session data. That list of accounts lives in your cache, not on Gmail. If you use the trial premium it may even do this by default, but I always use free no trial.

  • Fountain pens. They don't make custom alloys of gold specifically for their nibs any more because they're not ubiquitous. An old "wet noodle" italic Parker or Waterman is a writing experience to behold.

  • That takeaway from Hasan's rhetoric sounds like the most bad faith interpretation I've heard since... Well, every time legacy media interviews Mamdani.

  • This is the state of a constituency which thinks progress is impossible without leaving the marginalized behind. The failure in expectation is the leaders' faults too.

  • These and I'd add Crutchfield, Sweetwater, and Best Buy has good sales.

    For components, the standard Mouser, Digikey, and McMaster-Carr

  • Peter Jones - Kilkelly (Ireland), it also has an interesting backstory

    It's very sad, but indicative of the time.

  • Dells latitudes are more repairable than the average, but I've had pleasant experiences with some gaming acers, HP omen, and XPS laptops. Mostly deal with Dell latitude and precisions though

  • Including themselves as mandatory in the service isn't exactly a win for right to repair. Dell batteries cost us about 65 dollars or less and they ship them directly to us with no certification requirements. They also offer extended warranties up to 3 years on batteries and 5 years on components.

  • For laptops the battery replacements are easy to do usually. Apple is the only one who's devoted their whole brand to making it impossible to repair full sized devices. I've replaced about 15 random dell laptop lithium batteries in the last year.

  • Artificial stem cells seem like the next thing to really revolutionize medicine.

    Quantum computers for brute force hacks seems doable in 100.

    Eye tracking pointer devices will likely be more convenient than mice within a dozen or two years. This will probably be widely available for people who are paralyzed first.

    Diamond processors are always 10 years away, but I think we can do it in 100. This would revolutionize the amount of power we can put through a chip without worrying about cooling.

    Quick charge capacitor replacements for standard rechargble batteries

    Low yield fusion plants. I'd like to think of them as capable of high yield, but it's much harder than initially thought. Some ideas are quite promising for low yield.

  • Nobody would gaslight a teenager as part of their authentic display of sorrow. This guy is a piece of shit who was hoping you wouldn't care and needed you to feel a certain way to cover his bases on not being reported... imo

  • That's a shame, I didn't realize how culturally isolated they were. I appreciate the redirection of my black and white analysis to a more nuanced one. I would always research a topic much more if it wasn't specifically about my general vibes on it.

    How do you feel about Qatar's labor abuses such as confiscating passports?

    I see that https://rch.qa/qatar-labor-law-can-your-employer-legally-keep-your-passport/ shows this is now strictly illegal, but also understanding how employer employee power dynamics affects legal systems I'm dubious of real change having happened.

  • I won't believe it until a journalist is added to the group chat.

  • As far as I've seen, they're not matching Modi's Hitler vibes, but you likely know more than an ignorant outsider. I mostly just hate fascists and see India as incredibly problematic.

    Maybe just the power dynamic. India is far more powerful, although they both have nukes.

  • Qatar as a labor exploiting oil nation, yep.

    Pakistan I don't associate with those things. I mostly associate them as the good guys in the culture war with India that causes Indians to come on to America social media and post the most deranged broken English shit you've ever heard about Muslims.
