She apparently had an OF as well, which really draws out the judgmental weirdos.

Also, the robotaxi has been live for all of a day and there’s already footage of it driving on the wrong side of the road: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_s-h0YXtF0c&t=420s

Yes, the one that has only managed to sink or capture 4 ships over their 2 year campaign. Compare that with the Somali pirates that captured 100+ ships during their peak in 2010-2011.

The only possible way they have to close the strait is by mining it. Anything else would be open to air attack and about as effective as the Houthis, which is to say not very.

Nevermind that if they allowed through any shipments, it would defeat the entire purpose of closing the Strait. Oil is fungible and will be resold if a profit can be made, as we’ve already seen with the Russian sanctions.

China gets to not have oil shortages. They’re far more dependent on the middle east for oil. The US has been self sufficient when it comes to oil for almost a decade.

The hand would have an ace pop out of the sleeve. I think the robot did something too.

And all the senior management that believed their horseshit.

Have you seen what happens when people try to stop agent provocateurs? The police rush in and beat the shit out of them. The entire point of provocateurs is to manufacture an excuse to use violence.

Because people don’t suddenly develop a hivemind when engaging in a protest. You get a large group of people together and the likelihood that at least one of them is a shithead quickly hits 100%. Add in agent provocateurs and you get situations like this.

The Republicans wrecked the world economy in 2008, destroying half the wealth in the world, and were only out of power for 2 years. No matter how bad it is, there is nothing that can pierce the reality distortion field generated by the right wing propaganda machine.

Quadriplegics. Epileptics. People with Parkinson’s or multiple sclerosis.

Because enforcing that is basically impossible.

The difference in non-voters between 2020 and 2024 was enough to swing the election.

Huh, I had no idea Biden was Prime Minister of Israel. I’d always heard it was that Netanyahu guy.

People keeping old ass industrial equipment alive. I had to buy some CD-Rs recently because it was the only way to get files on or off an ancient Win95 machine that had no network or USB ports. The machinery it interacts with costs a million dollars, so replacing it is no small thing.

Might be a regional thing, but in the US you only hear snuck unless the person is trying to be cutesy, like pretending to be a cat.

Yeah, but people will look at you weird if you use sneaked in serious contexts.

Cutting USAID has a far larger effect. Millions will likely die from preventable diseases in developing countries due to it.

They’re a news program. What exactly are you expecting them to do instead?

No, but .ml does have a bunch of tankies who defend Russia or try to distract and muddy the water every time Russia does something abhorrent.
