You do realize that the U.S. hasn’t spent an excess dollar on the Ukraine war, right? The budget was $700-some-odd billion whether that goes to shipping or storage costs.

No, Ukraine had munitions reserves. Which are, y’know, an expendable resource. And they expended them.

This is so obviously untrue it’s insane. How did this pass anyone’s sniff test?

A person charged in any state with treason, felony, or other crime, who shall flee from justice, and be found in another state, shall on demand of the executive authority of the state from which he fled, be delivered up, to be removed to the state having jurisdiction of the crime.

What the hell was that

Don’t you think 5 is a bit much? If so, there is definitely a lot more data from before Musk said he was gonna buy it than after

I agree with the spirit of what you’re saying, but they aren’t really discriminating against browsers at all. As far as I understand it, they pretty much have an

    
if (!adPageElement.isLoaded)
{
    showStupidPopup();
}

  

in there somewhere. It doesn’t rely on any nefarious browser implementation-specific extensions; everyone gets that same code and runs it. As for the 5 seconds thing, IIRC some FF configurations were triggering false positives, but I think it was patched. It does seem awfully convenient, and maybe they only patched it because they got caught, but they also must have been morons to think something that obvious wouldn’t be noticed immediately.

You could probably do this pretty easily with a custom pre-build step.

I’m not confident a single 2000 line config file would be better, though. Sounds an awful lot like Makefile hell.

Just absolutely demolish the toilet every time you use it.

Make them suck out that half-a-ply-ass-TP with oil rig equipment.

I answered for them, because it’s quite obvious what their intent was.

That even if some people are beyond help, there is no evidence that this person is.

It kinda sounds like they are people living in their homes lol

I don’t see why I should care where they live so long as they’re actually living in the place. They obviously need a place to stay, shouldn’t be forced into renting, and I don’t know what would be accomplished by putting a cap on how nice of a place they can buy.

$57M? So what, like 100 apartments, max?

Edit 2:

The least expensive home was $1.85 million, while the priciest came in at $31.1 million.

Oh okay so like 5 lol

Zero chance there are bagels with a shelf life of >a year.

Please point to where I said anything explicitly disagreeing with that.

And I’m still not trying to argue with you on that. I’m just saying that the numbers you’re citing do not support your case. There are most definitely situations where killing 0.6% of a population would be considered genocide.

Again, I really don’t to weigh in on whether or not it is genocide, if only because I’m not gonna change anybody’s opinion here. Alls I’m saying is that the qualifications for genocide do not include the destruction of the entire, or even the majority of, the population.

In the present Convention, genocide means any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such:

a. Killing members of the group; Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;

b. Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part;

c. Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;

d. Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.

I’m not totally convinced that this is Israel’s intent—most of what I’ve seen points to a brazen and sociopathic indifference typical of 7th graders and goofy “strongman” populists like Netanyahu alike—but the percentage of the population killed does not factor in determining whether it is genocide.

Ah yes, the true cause of the preposterous housing market… college students.

Yes it is, it's attacking the source for being Chinese.

No, it’s attacking the source for being integral to propaganda arm of the CCP. I’d hope to see the same response to state-run media of any non-democratic country. It’s also not intending to discredit the news whatsoever, so it isn’t an ad hominem attack. They’re encouraging you to use more trustworthy sources.

Suddenly the news is more real because a western source reports on it?

No, this news is real regardless. There’s probably a post about it on 4chan; that doesn’t make 4chan a news source, either.

Ironically people will think they're immune to propaganda because they've been trained to automatically distrust non-western sources.

There are countless well-trusted sources outside of the western world. They just don’t require a stamp of approval from their authoritarian government before they can publish.

No, seriously: all they are good for is making things sound fancy.

This is the part of your comment is reductive. The first part just explains how LLMs work, albeit sarcastically.
