It should probably be expected that any country with the means will interfere in other countries elections. What bothered me most in 2016 was not so much what Russia did, but that we didn't seem to have much of a response to it. And yes can we please support democracy and not authoritarians. I feel like the whole cold war was about capitalism vs communism when it should have been about democracy vs authoritarianism.

I don't know much about investing, but i wonder if it would it be a good time to short those companies?

I remember a documentary about a famous northwest passage expedition that was never seen again. One of the inuit people they talked to during an investigation claimed they found a boat, and in the captain's quarters they found a body in the bed with a big smile on its face. That would be absolutely terrifying, but apparently that's what naturally happens to corpses when their lips and gums receed.

This is what the passive income 1% crowd tell the rest of us.

I wonder how much more energy it took to accomplish that compared to just shooting a rocket. Last I had heard railguns weren't really feasible because of the absurd amount of energy they would require even with perfect efficiency.

For me, every time it suggests the correct base word, it gets the ending wrong, so I have to type out the whole word anyway. For example, if I want past tense it'll suggest the present tense of the word.

I agree, but my understanding of it is that developing and announcing a long term plan for a company like that would cause the stock price to dip in the short term. Apparently that would be something shareholders could sue over, so even if some CEO wanted to do the right thing, they couldn't. It comes down to the greed of people who don't know and don't care about the companies they're invested in and their impacts on the world. They just want that money to come in every month.

I never thought about it that way. Basically any algorithm that sorts posts could be argued to be censorship. But you can't sort based on straight vote either because of fake accounts and bots. I guess we are just doomed to be manipulated.

How can anybody possibly think that? Have they somehow lost all memory of Helsinki?

It's quite the leap to conclude that it had anything to do with memory. He could've asked if it was 2015 because he was surprised it was that long ago. Sometimes things like losing a child might screw with your since of time and feel more recent.

Oh I'm definitely an addict. Sometimes the first sip is way too good to just be about the taste. Its a bit annoying during the summer, coffee makes me sweat too much, but if I haven't had a cup by 1pm or so, then I get a bad headache.

Maybe I remember wrong, but wasn't he coordinating releases of leaked dnc data with Roger Stone? I'm gonna assume anyone dealing with Roger Stone is not on the up and up...

I've always wondered how big an impact burying all grass clippings would have... I assume very little since I've never heard it mentioned before.

They found classified documents at this location. Why the hell would they leave without opening every door? This seems very basic to me...

• goes to auschwitz
• talks about himself

He clearly learned nothing.

I doubt he would have said anything unless it matched the party line, so its not completely uninformative. The problem I see is that I'm pretty sure that this peace solution has been proposed in the past, and it was the Palestinians who rejected it.

For me there's a certain amount of stress relief when I feel good contact with the ball. It can also be fun to try to be accurate the same as with other games like darts.

I've got a family history of it and probably should get checked early bit haven't. Here's to hoping that the article I saw that said THC is toxic to polyps literally saves my ass.

That's a much taller order than you make it sound. It'd probably be easier to figure out fusion.

Fusion is the first step to a post scarcity world. All the new technology, products, agriculture methods, ect. that would be made possible with abundant, clean energy would completely transform the world. I doubt solar and wind could ever provide enough to make those advances.
