Make something that'll EMP everyone's replicators before people start replicating nukes.

Yes the Max is the current status quo, but given the Min is almost certainly the destruction of the world, so status quo is probably the best we can hope for.

And maybe I'd make a sandwich if there's room for it along with the EMP.

Have fun living in a 1m³ house.

Damn these AIs are getting good at understanding exactly what I want.

Yes because Russia will build more tanks and other equipment in the next decade. Not a problem if Europe builds up too. But that will be a problem if Europe does nothing.

If Russia were an immediate threat, Europe would have no choice but to give Trump whatever he wants so the US will protect Europe. But with Russian forces being decimated by this war, Europe has the opportunity to build it's own arms industry to be able to produce it's own weapons to be able to counter Russia in a decade's time.

Drones don't hold ground, soldiers do. Soldiers that have tanks are going to be more effective than those without them.

ITT: A lot of of leftists seeing evidence that they have supported fascists and having to choose between remaining a leftist or going full tankie.

What's bullshit is that you believe that people capable of the horrific things that happened on October 7 would never ever torture and kill people that threatened their power.

Hamas is a fascist organization, and this is how fascists roll.

Your comment might carry more weight if this thread wasn't full of people being outraged and claiming that anything that suggests Hamas aren't good guys must be "zionist propaganda".

You may not support Hamas, but maybe ask the people in this thread that are clearly pro-Hamas whether or not they consider themselves to be pro-Palestine.

The contents of this thread suggests there are a lot of people that are part of the pro-Palestine movement are indeed pro-Hamas. And there is little push-back within the pro-Palestine movement for people that take pro-Hamas and even anti-semitic stances. Anyone who does gets labelled a zionist and gets harassed and threatened.

Sure not everyone in the pro-Palestinian movement are pro-Hamas, but Hamas is a significant part of that movement. And when you have violent extremists in a movement, they are the ones that control the movement, not the pacifists. Because as we can see, the violent elements of a movement are willing to kill the pacifists if they speak against them.

ITT: People casually spreading anti-semitic conspiracy theories about Israel controlling the US government.

Are you MAGA? You sound exactly like a MAGA.

Yeah we all understand that Americans have no concept of what an alliance is.

The issue is his general lackadaisical approach to sensitive and classified information. The Signal group chat debacle is not a one off thing, this dude just doesn't give a shit in his handling of sensitive information with no regard to whether it's classified or puts people's lives at risk.

He said he wouldn't do Project 2025 and so people trusted the word of a guy convicted of 34 counts of fraud because he said that he was being treated unfairly by the justice system.

I dunno... people are dumb.

Bumble bees are actually inspiring wing designs now. For a long time our best theories on aerodynamics couldn't explain how Bumblebees could fly. Given the relative mass and wing size the bumble bee they couldn't explain how a bumble bee could fly.

In the last decade or so they figured it out after putting enough bumble bees into wind tunnels. Bumblebees generate additional lift by creating little vortexes in the air. So now wing designers are trying to incorporate that effect into their designs.

It was over when Abe Lincoln wrote the Declaration of Independence.

Buy it with what? Billionaires don't hold money, their valuation is all in stock value.

I think you're giving them too much credit. Never attribute to malice that which can be explained by incompetence.

If someone asked that, it would just be edited out of the recording.

So basically it would just be: YOU HAVE NEVER SAID THANK YOU!!!

One time a VP decided to jump in and be a developer and he just pointed a bunch of cards when the dev that was really going to do the work was off for the day. Obviously the points were way too low, so I just padded out the rest of the cards knowing the 7 points on the cards the VP pointed was going to be the entire two week sprint for the other dev and I'd need to to whatever else was put into the sprint.

And that's how I found out the Product Manager was putting the points into a spreadsheet to track how many points each individual dev was doing. He was actually upset at me for doing 20 points in the sprint. Sure, I padded them out, but why wasn't he bothered by the cards that had too few points on them? Just upset his spreadsheet was screwed up, but couldn't be angry at the VP that under-pointed a bunch of cards.
