you are scientifically illiterate

Because I’m not buying an overpriced humidifier?

The scam where I buy a shipping container at some point?

“People should be in the streets to stop the war”

“Will a protest march stop the war?”

“No! But… it’s tradition, you know?”

Hardly a scam. There’s nothing to insert money into.

This is just empty hype

One problem maybe kinda hypothetically down. Ten thousand more to go.

how do you enforce any jurisdiction on a satellite and what it’s doing.

You threaten to disable it, which would be very easy give how fragile it is

Okay, but have you considered how cool it would be to put a data center in space?

What if I told you that we have to BEAT CHINA to space?

Do you think Harris would have kept us out of Iran?

She’s not Trump. That’s all that matters.

If she hadn’t bombed Iran, it would be because she was kinder and wiser and more serious. If she had bombed Iran, it would have been for better reasons and with more international support.

Many of us are fighting against this regime

There are more employees of ICE than activist opponents of the American regime

No no no. Trump is worse.

This isn’t a single continuous policy escalated intermittently across both regimes.

I’m sure we’ll hear about the Hamas tunnels any day now, assuming the media bothers to report on it at all

At the moment, it just sounds like “America is finally winning again” on all channels and frequencies

we haven’t followed the constitution in a very long time

But whether the Constitution really be one thing, or another, this much is certain - that it has either authorized such a government as we have had, or has been powerless to prevent it. In either case it is unfit to exist.

Genocide does be like that.

Next they’ll start targeting all the bakeries.

Me: “Just FYI, you’ve got undiagnosed ADHD.”

Friend 1: “Wow, what can I do about this?”

Me: “You’re too poor to access mental health care, and most professionals haven’t accepted this as a diagnosis for your racial/gender cohort. So, unfortunately, there’s nothing to be done.”

Friend 2: “What about me?”

Me: “You’re transgender.”

Friend 2: “What the fuck did you just call me?!”

Good news. Linux can LLM - too

Maybe aim better next time, Mr. Crooks

Being profitable so you can continue to exist does not mean you are motivated by profit.

I mean… it definitely plays a large factor. The idea that these organizations aren’t profit-maximizing is very different than claiming they’re net negative or hobbyist endeavors.

This is the same argument as “you hate capitalism but you participate in it.”

“We live in a capitalist society and must play by its rules” is merely an observation of the status quo.

I would more compare it to the complaint about a number of socialist states - China, Vietnam, Cuba, Venezuela - that wildly outperform their expectations despite flying in the face of Chicago School orthodoxy. “Well, but they’re cheating!” is an allegation made regularly.

Western AI data scrapping companies love to get mad at Chinese AI data scrapping companies for scrapping their data, for instance. American MIC love to bemoan foreign investment in cheap, efficient deterrents. American biotech companies are firmly committed to keeping anything developed in Cuba out of the hands of the American public.

What if I told you all of these ventures were profitable?
