Technical aptitude is born of need. Of course this will limit most, but at least some will figure out bypasses.
“We’re putting a moratorium on doing any space science with you, we will never cooperate.”
“Ok, we’ll make our own space station then. By the way, we just brought back some moon rocks from our moon return mission.”
“Oh cool! Please share them with us. We’re not making an exception to the moratorium and will not share whatever we learn with you. Fuck you.”
“Nah we’re not gonna do that.”
It’s always always always romaine lettuce. I don’t know if there’s any in any part of a McDonald’s burger but I know romaine is at fault somehow
If only there was an emoji for those insane cutout graphics of hypothetical Al-qaeda mountain bases
The idea is that as the guest becomes more distracted by the spiciness they become more authentic because they’re too distracted to put up their masks
I want Palestinian lives to be saved
Harris is going to continue Biden’s policy of calling Bibi an asshole behind closed doors and sending billions of dollars of bombs while structuring shipments to avoid congressional oversight.
I want Ukrainian lives to be saved
Harris is going to continue sending billions of dollars of support to Ukraine so more Ukrainians can be fed into the meat grinder, because it’s good for the military industrial complex, and the less of Ukraine there is left standing, the more can be sold for pennies to privatization interests. Russia has been offering peace for a long time and Ukraine has been made continuously to reject it by Western nations because it’s in their interest to burn Russian military assets and sell Western ones.
I want American lives to be saved
Harris does not support universal healthcare and talks about wanting the deadliest army on Earth, a thing that you cannot have without killing people.
I want clean air and water for the generations to come.
Harris supports bailing out crypto investors. If she gave a shit about the environment she wouldn’t subsidize the Planet Burning Funny Money. She’d also perhaps distance herself from Biden, who has signed more oil & gas leases than Trump did.
I want everyone, not just Americans, to have a chance at a better life and control over their own lives and bodies.
The American Hegemony is one in which millions must starve to death every year and billions live in substandard conditions to support the excess of a few million privileged consuming monsters. If Harris cared to improve lives she wouldn’t support the continued wars in Israel and Ukraine, she’d support M4A, she’d break with the neoliberal doctrine she’s run with her whole life, she’d name and reject the neocolonialism that keeps America floating on top of the broken bodies of the global south. She will never do these things, but she will put a Republican in her cabinet.
Harris is further right than Biden. Trump is an uncontrolled rabid ape, correct, but Harris will be no less vile or murderous a leader, just less openly rude. Her border plan is more extreme than Trump’s was.
History has showed us that voting for the lesser evil doesn’t work. There is no righting of the ship, just more and more steps towards greater evil. The Democrats serve capital, just as the Republicans do. They didn’t grant abortion, a Supreme Court decision did. They didn’t legalize gay marriage, a Supreme Court decision did. They never enshrined them in law, but stole credit for the work of radical activists when polling told them it would boost their voter count.
Are the Dems less repugnant than the GOP? Yes and no. They don’t want to ban abortion federally, great, but they’re not going to legalize it either, and they’re not going to stop the GOP from banning it state by state. That’s how they are on every issue.
You speak of voting between 100% Hitler and 99% Hitler as the only choice you have. I reject that framing. Local political action is vastly more effective than voting for President unless you’re one of the lucky 100,000 that live in the right swing districts. Join the DSA or the PSL. Go to school board meetings and tell the book burners driving cross-county to try and ban transgender students to fuck off. Read revolutionary theory and discuss it with others.
Didn’t Galadriel straight up say that if she were given the power of the Ring she’d turn into a tyrant? Like, if the choices are Sauron (tyrant, given the power) and Galadriel (tyrant, given the power) it seems most correct to pick Frodo (trying to unmake the source of corruptive and destroying power).
Like, if anyone wielding the Ring for any purpose will be subordinate to its will no matter their intentions, and ultimately will subjugate all others, then the dichotomy is not which wielder, but whether the Ring should exist or not.
Idk I think the models would space themselves accordingly to make it equally awkward for every patron
Chongqing is a marvel of civil engineering and I will hear no ill of building a city on a vertical slope
I think we could do better than the sun if we really tried. Compost emits more energy per volume than the sun’s core, there’s just way more core to emit energy
Smoke bombs and tear gas are corrosive particulates
Emulation specifically is wickedly hard and there’s a reason basically every emulator has a team of dozens to hundreds of contributors and is in active development rather than capable of perfect emulation
There’s 7 hours of cutscenes in Death Stranding and one is more than half an hour long. Let the man make films so we don’t have to plod through mocap anymore
Nice try but I’m never gonna play a moba
There’s nothing left behind his eyes after years of absolute subservience to the Algorithm
There’s actually only one male piece in Tetris but it’s not the one you’d think
No, there’s a significant amount of oil infrastructure locally. They’ve even got a colonialist extension with Canada: crude oil crosses over to be refined and sold back to Canada
