Most of our bad media was already an import from Australia.

As an American I thought it would be much worse. 75% or more. We have been shitty neighbors. Seriously, threats, tariffs, insults, etc.

We already agreed to that when Ukraine gave up the nucs. Look what that did, nothing. Why would they try again?

They did the same with Jobs. We value success not intelligence. It just happens success favors sociopathic behaviors as they will do anything to achieve it. They don’t have empathy for those they hurt on the way up.

Two important parts of a battery are how much energy it can store in a certain space and how much it weighs. If it is bigger and holds the same amount of energy that might be ok for a non mobile storage if it costs less, like a house. If it weighs more for a certain energy that wouldn’t be useful for cars and mobile things but might be ok for small things where the weight is negligible anyway. For cars you want a small energy dense battery that is light as possible

Woke has been around. It had a resurgence during the BLM era. The right latched on to the word and use it negatively, but it isn’t their word and they didn’t create it. If they want to use it, fine, but they don’t own it. And better yet throw it back in their faces.

Irony ending on 88…years.

and darkness…

The dumbing down of American is most evident in the slow decay of substantive content in the enormously influential media, the 30 second sound bites (now down to 10 seconds or less), lowest common denominator programming, credulous presentations on pseudoscience and superstition, but especially a kind of celebration of ignorance”

We will likely not have access to fair elections anymore. Our country is broken.

Quite the family. Crazy any European country still has royalty.

Ya but these guys are still very very powerful and will doubtfully go down as a scapegoat.

Chaotic good vs lawful evil?

Doesn’t matter they will get labeled something else. ICE is terrorizing MN law enforcement and the right doesn’t care. Insurrectionists terrorizing law enforcement on Jan 6, the right didn’t care. ICE is not a classic law enforcement agency anyway. These people are idiots and likely just making shit up.

It is easier to fool someone than convince them they have been fooled.

Good thing I have an MD. Screw AI!

As a an actual radiologist this is pretty accurate. Also the AI in radiology has been a slight time saving tool and a large cost and that is about it. It has been mostly a dud. Maybe it will improve, but if I had imaging done and the hospital said AI read it, I would get a second opinion from a human immediately as is. We’ve spent billions of not trillions on AI and it has had a minimal impact on my daily life in the hospital. We could have health care for everyone with the cost spent.

Ya the reality is Netflix is best case scenario, saying that out loud is humbling.

Splitting the Dakota territory could be seen as a form of gerrymandering.

That is a good start, could do better though.

Something about Minnie.
