Thanks for sharing that mindfuck. I honestly would’ve thought something was wrong with my cognition if you hadn’t mentioned it was a test beforehand.

I agree with the sentiment, but in going to “uhm acksually” you on the size of the nuclear stockpile. Russia still holds more nukes officially: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_states_with_nuclear_weapons

Don’t be surprised if the answer is “both”. He’s a stupid man obsessed with the optics of looking strong and successful. Boasting about this while completely oblivious to the obvious consequences fits right in his M.O.

Even a broken clock is right twice a day. With the amount of Star Wars media Disney were/are pumping out they’re bound to create something worthwhile eventually. It’s like that thing with the monkeys and typewriters.

Who could’ve seen that coming from Tulsi “totally not a compromised asset” Gabbard.

Nah, we got them fancy sliding tabs on those. I was talking about loading programs from tape LOL.

Same. I remember needing converters for these newfangled PS/2 connectors. Then again, I am old enough that I remember why floppies were called floppies, and used tape for more than just backup. And hard drives being as big as a shoe box and with less storage than you now have as CPU caches.

You might be off by a couple of years there. And even if you aren’t, the 3G network those cars would’ve relied on for communications has been shut down so remotely doing anything to your 2004 car today would be impossible.

I was going g to comment how I have the thing pictured, but that it comes with several real drawbacks. Not just mosquitoes either. Imagine having to buy and operate your own snow plow to leave the house in winter. Or buying groceries in bulk because the nearest Walmart is a three hour drive.

Counterpoint: I lived in Sweden and I miss that winter’s gloom. Sure, it’s dark before the snow falls but it gives you something to look forward to.

Sounds like Canada anywhere not near the ocean. I’m in that same boat, and I’ll happily trade the stupidly hot summers for two extra months of winter.

I miss the moderate summers of Scandinavia in that regard. Sure, it rained a lot, but at least you could go outside without roasting to a crisp in minutes during summer.

So very true. Dressing for cold is so much easier than heat it’s mindboggling to read some of these summer fan comments. Like, do you guys actually live on the same planet as I do? Cause this one sucks the minute temperatures go past 20c.

Thank you for perfectly describing just about all the reasons I would skip summer altogether if I could.

The one missing complaint from my end is that you can’t do anything outside or in a non-AC building without instantly sweating like you took a shower with your clothes on.

And don’t get me started on everything being on fire. The only thing worse than regular summer is a summer where you can’t see the skies for several month’s due to the smoke and you have to worry about your house burning down all the damn time.

Couldn’t agree more with the OOP.

Punisher badges on police equipment…

“Peace through strength” has such an aweful ring to it. From the first recorded historical use forward it has been used by empires using rethoric to whitewash their aggression.

…and nothing will change, because the administration holds itself above and beyond the reach of the law and the judiciary.

Not sure why your getting downvoted, this is a pretty legit question.

Genious comment.

UAE is cheating since they outsourced it to the Netherlands to do their sea reclaiming for them.

Back before music piracy was a thing; because who’s going to download a 3-4MB file on a 14k4 modem? By the time you grab one song you’d have racked up such an internet bill you might as well have bought the single.
