I don’t believe you actually need any of that. The thing is, nuclear weapons are scary. When it comes to fear, actually capabilities barely figure in. Because what if it gets through anyway? What if the west sells them a super advanced delivery system? What if they try something we didn’t think of?

Better not risk it.

History has proven otherwise.

It turns out, that while everyone says that arms races and escalation lead to conflict… Actually, what we’ve seen is that waiving a big stick is the only true deterrent.

Hidden behind the lede: DJI automated vacuums require constantly sending their footage abroad to even work in the first place

Oh em gee…

The idea that $5000 will pay for replacing a core component or system is just plain preposterous.

A flash memory chip is a flash memory chip, whether it’s part of a USB stick or soldered to a custom board. You don’t need to replace the custom board, you need to solder on a new memory chip that contains the instructions you want it to.

Well my custom browser says my age is verified, we’re all set here here. All set. Move along.

What would be the point of that? If the check was done locally it would be trivial to spoof.

Technically, this can’t work. It’s a bad idea.

My definition of change?

Yeah, that makes sense.

Also, the Internet is like a living thing, it changes constantly, that’s its nature. Essentially every day is the end of the Internet as we know it, it’s always something else the next day.

So you’re saying which empires/systems exactly then?

Spain perhaps? The Holy Roman empire?

To late.

I mean, there’s Russia.

And don’t get me wrong, I don’t really want to call them competent, but their planes are modern. And for Christ sake, we should be squaring off with them in Ukraine.

Yeah… Fighter jets don’t really get bricked.

A brick is when you’ve messed something up to the point where the hardware doesn’t boot and the only possible solution would be to pull out a rom chip and replace it with one with factory settings, but that’s too hard and not worth doing.

But that’s the thing, with the F-35, it’ll never be not worth doing. It could be a $5000 setback… But whatever.

What the fuck!

I just read the article, and I think it’s completely misrepresenting the bill! From what I can see, the article is just inventing this link to the chemtrails conspiracy.

Does this bill ever mention the word “chemtrails” or “contrails”, at all?

From what I can tell, the bill is completely talking about cloud seeding, which is definitely its own thing. Cloud seeding is fraught enough, it’s a relatively complicated issue with very serious environmental impacts, it does not need to be mixed up chemtrails which are a bullshit conspiracy theory (the opposite of a serious issue).

Hey Alabama Political Reporter go find your journalistic integrity, I think you dropped it somewhere.

In his defense, the comment didn’t say shit about breakthrough research, it said “watch this”.

Say what you want to say and people won’t dismiss it. Link to something random and who knows.

I’m with you on dogs.

But i’d never trust a cat… They know why.

It’s true, at some point it becomes a necessity. I don’t know what to do about teens today, I haven’t gotten there yet.

It appears, Texans.

300mw are indeed a much different scale from 10mw.

I wonder if your ire is misplaced… As these are sort of different things. The 10mw reactors have different use cases, they’re not really designed to be installed as part of a power plant, but more for individual on-site uses, like as a reserve power system for a hospital, or as power for a remote mining location, disconnected from the grid.

My point is just, it might make sense to not mention the larger reactors here, as they’re not really the same.

My understanding is that it’s not policies they implemented, but rather technologies they developed and officially utilized. They have some sort of digital id system. I don’t recall the details, but I remember reading about it and saying to myself “oh my God, I’ve been asking for that for ages, and Estonia has already done it!”.

Essentially the idea is that you get private keys along with your birth certificate. So you can always prove you’re you.

Yeah, don’t give them phones.
