• Ask who let the Taliban out of Afghanistan's prisons? Trump did a deal with the Taliban and had the American military crack open the prisons, against the wishes of the supposedly sovereign Afghanistan government.

We don't generally tip much in the UK. Staff in high end restaurants still "make bank" from tips, as wealthy people are still more likely to tip.

Obama never had a supermajority. He got close but peaked at 59 senators in the senate and one in hospital. One shy of 60 is not enough.

They'll wait till he's president again and then just say it's covered by Presidential immunity. Somehow..

I'd laugh but that sounds like 8 kids had their lives ruined by some idiots.

Talking to hotel staff. About networking. Yeah.. uh.. Good luck!

MTU 1280 fixes all MTU problems, at a cost to performance.

I feel like there's something bigger we're missing. Both parties seem willing to gamble on losing the election over support for Israel, even now.

What on earth is the political advantage ?

Amiga Stunt Car Racer remains the best racing game of all time for me. It even had linkup multiplayer (I think..)

Ah, fair enough then.

They would drop tactical nukes on NATO forces.

Yeah maybe. I was operating under the prevailing idea in this thread that NATO would steamroll through Russia. It's not something I necessarily agree with.

It's never going to happen anyways.

Well, quite. This is all just a thought experiment, no one thinks it could happen. NATO is a purely defensive alliance.

If they don't allow you to reject in two clicks then they're violating the EU regulation.

I'm not willing to gamble but I don't think they'd go nuclear. The trick is to offer amnesty and support to everyone but Putin so they have a better option than death for themselves and their families. Loyalty to dictators is always about self preservation.

I heard China had dropped the ball on housing. Apparently home ownership is getting really cheap there. The poor fools. Tsk tsk.

He's playing Snakes and Ladders (Chutes and Ladders?) in 4D. The man's a genius, I tells you.

There's no year zero, it goes from 1 BCE to 1 CE.

I .. uh.. was talking about Twitter..

It isn't on the stand but I think it's a reasonable and value comment, to raise the question. People shouldn't downvote you.

Who would buy it now, though? It can't have much value left. (Edit: Twitter. Not talking about Tesla, that's a whole different arc.)
