My permit to purchase can’t arrive quickly enough.

Anyone remember A Very Peculiar Practice? I watched again recently, it still holds up.

I guess that’s one way to get me to support bombing Gaza.

Does their little memo offer protection against bullets?

If ICE agents were smart they would refuse to do this. Sooner or later someone is going to defend their home against these goons, using lethal force. The government is deliberately putting these morons in harm’s way so they can use the death of an agent as political currency; people like Miller care so little about ICE agents that they wish to see them dead.

No, Trump is almost supernaturally stupid but Farage isn’t. He’s a nasty, evil, racist piece of shit but he’s not a moron.

Maybe build something useful that solves a real problem?

That’s the problem. For now at least, we’re at the end of “new tech make line go up”. Crypto wasn’t it, neither were NFTs, LLMs are no different. All the low hanging fruit was picked a while back so they’re stuck trying to make us believe that there’s a Next Big Thing just around the corner when, at best, there’s some fairly niche and difficult to monetize tech requiring vast resources to work.

Corrected, thanks!

We even have small nuclear reactors that can use spent fuel from the larger ones, thus solving in part the disposal of it.

Do we? Last I heard there aren’t any in service.

Furthermore, significant advances have been achieved on fision power.

We’ll need a hell of a lot more advances before fusion is even close to powering a grid.

The C suite and management of these companies want two things - for the stock to go as high as possible, and for them to be able to sell at the top and leave a bunch of bag holders wondering what the fuck just happened.

Bellingcat does great work.

it is not enshittified … call it anti-consumer

Same difference?

Too expensive, too enshittified for me to consider. All they had to do was not fuck this up and they would’ve had a guaranteed sale but I don’t ever see myself spending a cent on Nintendo ever again.

“In my work with the defendants (at the Nuremberg Trials 1945-1949) I was searching for the nature of evil and I now think I have come close to defining it. A lack of empathy. It’s the one characteristic that connects all the defendants, a genuine incapacity to feel with their fellow men. Evil, I think, is the absence of empathy.”

• Captain G. M. Gilbert, the Army psychologist assigned to watching the defendants at the Nuremberg trials

“I don’t care,” one agent is heard saying.

It is not built to transfer solar power from Nevada to Minnesota

This exists and is longer than that. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rio_Madeira_HVDC_system

Everything works better when you have baseline nuclear power

Nope. Baseline isn’t helpful when you’re dealing with dispatchable generation, I already mentioned this.

Remember that batteries need to be replaced often and they are very much not green.

Nope. I already mentioned that silicon ion is capable of thousands of charge cycles.

they are very much not green.

Nope. Not when you’re comparing it to the amount of concrete in a nuclear plant.

Like every other pro-nuclear person it’s all about feels with you. I’ve given you plenty of evidence, which you’ve rejected much like a cultist would do. I see no point continuing to discuss this with someone who has made an emotional decision to support nuclear in the face of all the evidence.

Like this waste of skin:

Nah, there are videos from a few different angles, not one of them gets close enough to the murderer to capture the detail on the photos OP posted.

“fatally shoots”

I know the media has its reasons for choosing how it describes events but this was a fucking execution.

Checking out the Minnesota subreddit - lots of people are saying this is AI slop. Where did you get it from?

The gloves are off now. It would be foolish not to show up to a protest armed after this.
