Do you remember when a swarm of automated drones were released from a lorry outside a russian air field and destroyed or damaged 10s of Russian bombers? That was pretty freaking cool. Not really related to anything in this thread in particular, but every now and then I enjoy reminiscing.

A big chunk of my time on reddit was just chatting with sports fans in local team subs during games and in league wide subs about current events.

Morons. Educated people are the one’s seeking higher education and educated people tend to trend left on the political spectrum. Capitulating to a far right administration just guarantees that their donors are going to decline and their enrollment is going to tank.

Surprised to not see St. Louis on the right side of this list

Bummer. I’ll hop on a redeye Amtrak train tonight and bark at the moon in his honor. Silliness aside, he always seemed like a genuine good guy. Hope he’s able to find peace and his family solace in the kind words that will be spoke of him in the coming days. If nothing else I’ll always really enjoy his hits when they come up in my playlists.

I wonder if this has anything to due with the lack of air traffic controllers and their quality of training due to high turnover. Probably not. Let’s just keep waiting for the next 300+ fatality disaster so we can fix it with thoughts and prayers.

That’s the unfortunate reality. You and I and he are sympathetic to other people’s space and well-being so it’s difficult in the moment to press more serious charges like assault with a deadly weapon when you can hope that the situation and being informed that he COULD have been charged with that will be enough to change his behavior.

It could be a case of intentional word play but the wording of the article makes it seem like it’s more than just usenet. Specifically the line: “inciting serious sexual abuse of children via a messenger service and producing child pornography content”

It doesn’t read as though it’s simply CSAM traffic through his network and if that were the case, I’d imagine the other 2 would be looking at similar charges, but news media notoriously bad a properly representing tech so that’s what gives me caution.

Yeah, I don’t care if you’re seeding the entirety of film history for free. If you’re also helping distribute child pornography, you deserve to rot.

I do wonder if this is a usenet case though. I know that’s a concern for a lot of people.

Worse.

"There must be more to life than having everything”, the note read.

Donald: Yes, there is, but I won’t tell you what it is

Jeffrey: Nor will I, since I also know what it is

Donald: We have certain things in common, Jeffrey

Jeffrey: Yes, we do, come to think of it

Donald: Enigmas never age, have you noticed that?

Jeffrey: As a matter of fact, it was clear to me the last time I saw you

Trump: A pal is a wonderful thing. Happy Birthday — and may every day be another wonderful secret.

Not really related, but I did a complete 180 on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Back in the early months of the conflict I posted a comment here suggesting that bombing in Gaza was targeting Hamas strategic targets and there was evidence of “roof knocking” to warn innocent occupants of an incoming attack. I didn’t realize how naive I was at the time parroting propaganda. If people hadn’t continued posting evidence of the IDF and their genocide/war crimes I wouldn’t have known any better.

That’s it! I had no clue that white tailed deer made this noise and I’ve lived here for 30 years!

Why? It has literally nothing to do with politics. Its a trophy from a sport that he doesn’t watch, has never played, and won’t support in the future. The MLS is the most “woke” of the major sports leagues in the United States, so it’s in theory the antithesis of Trump’s agenda. They regularly engage in pride initiatives and imagery, plus encourage globalism at the venues and through broadcasts. Not to mention that this tournament doesn’t/didn’t really draw the full effort from clubs. Teams regularly didn’t play their regular season starting XI and players didn’t display max effort either. Most of them just finished a 32+ week season and played around 40 matches. There’s already labor disputes about the density and duration of the football schedule in Europe and the injuries associated with playing as much as they do. At best, I would guess that players put about 70% of their max effort into these matches considering the issue of heat too.

I’m going to speak for them since I haven’t seen a reply, so this is just an assumption and should be taken as such until they reply. But, there’s plenty of positive aspects of local churches outside of faith. Many churches run community-based philanthropy efforts and provide a gathering space for members and nonmembers which is especially helpful in locations that don’t have much in the way of things to do or other places to gather. Humans are social creatures and whether gay or not, the church is a large community.

Hell, no one trusts the Internet, but still comes back to participate.

Going to bat for xbox or Microsoft right now is a death sentence on the internet so by internet law I have to downvote you. Sorry, it’s just the way things go…

That said, I agree. Being able to buy a $30 plug and play pack with rechargeable battery packs or being able to buy rechargeable AAs or just normal AA batteries is the best of all the current first party options.

Yeah, well, you know, that’s just, like, your opinion, man.

Why not move back to the country you emigrated from? Assuming you still hold valid citizenship there? I would love the help trying to turn this shit around, but its too dangerous for you here.

In the field. We already addressed that. Humans pick the food in 104° weather in late June/July/August when the wet bulb globe temperature is 95+

This is the most accurate no I’ve ever read in my life.

Maybe? But 122 is way different than 114 in this case.
