History started on October 7th

Israel firing sniper rounds and launching drone strikes into Gaza City isn’t terrorism, it’s Smart Data Driven Policing

Two of the largest countries on Earth, neighboring one another and not going to war, is so alien to Western Leaders and their media apparatchiks

Dwayne Johnson has been showing back up in WWE events, and I do get the sense that he’s tapped out on the Disney end of the money funnel. With all that Saudi cash flowing into combat sports and with Vince McMahon getting dragged out back like the rabid dog he is, I wouldn’t be surprised to see Johnson springboards from Vince’s old position to a political campaign, with his eyes on the White House.

Gotta distance himself from the wildly unpopular current liberal President if you’re even going to begin that transition.

I think there’s something to be said of the flattening of culture that has come out of this.

You have a region that’s got a broccoli glut and a region that’s got a quinoa glut. Historically, these local maxima of produce would inform a bunch of the habits and inclinations of the society, as they leaned into what they had in abundance. You’d have a city with a giant broccoli on their crest. You’d have “Broccoli Cookoff Season”. You’d have all sorts of broccoli derivatives like seasonings and dyes/textiles and plants that produce calcium supplements from the excess, etc, etc.

Now all that excess broccoli is owned by a Mega-Corp. Nobody in town really gets to see the benefits of surplus or access a virtually free super-abundance. It either gets shipped out or destroyed and the town probably benefits more financially from a bad crop than a good one. There’s relatively little pride in what the city produces, because they’re all day laborers working precariously for a company that cycles them through multiple farm yards miles apart. There’s very little free time to exploit the excess or to develop these cultural artifacts iconic to towns.

And, in the end, you may stop producing broccoli locally in its entirety, because real estate is owned by one family three states away and they’ve decided to shift marketing to a less labor/resources intensive product.

Trump: “Damn, this looks really bad. My political instincts are telling me people would like it if I said war was bad.”

Liberals: “We must do the opposite of anything Trump says, so I guess now we’re all just openly thirsting for genocide.”

If it passes the Senate, there’s still a good chance it’s DOA in the courts, just because it’s so nakedly anti business

Turk claims not to shit on the streets, then vomits up a giant turd in the center of a public forum.

War is always just the prelude to diplomacy. Gotta wonder how many more people will die before talking starts.

Seems like it’s the only way anyone knows how to make money anymore

We will be more like China

We won’t be like China. We’ll be more insulated and divorced from Chinese media, culture, and conversation.

That’s the stated end goal. Bringing up sharp walls between nationalities in order to control the flow of information between people.

If we keep TikTok open, we risk exposing American young people to Chinese norms, ideals, and social standards. We might even be exposed directly to Chinese mass media (ie, propaganda).

This is a real security risk, as it raises a possibility that younger Americans won’t accept American mass media at face value.

Both physical and digital Switch games include what Nintendo calls technological protection measures, or TPMs. As Nintendo itself explains in one of those takedown notices, “When a game is started on the Nintendo Switch console a Game TPM is decrypted using cryptographic keys that are protected by Console TPMs. The games themselves can then be decrypted by the decrypted Game TPMs so the game can be played.”

The DMCA includes a section that says “no person shall circumvent a technological measure that effectively controls access to a work protected under this title.” In other words, any attempt to bypass DRM is a violation of copyright law no matter the intent - or at least, that’s how Nintendo interprets the law, and that argument has been very effective at getting hosts like GitHub to take down software like Lockpick and SigPatch-Updater.

Love to live in a society where private property is real and personal property is not.

Ronald Reagan: “I’m going to de-unionize the FAA by firing every single member and forcing them to reapply for their old jobs or GTFO.”

Joe Biden: “Hey, Jack! I heard you filed for a union election! I’m going to blog about it, as the most pro-union president in American history!”

The two genders.

zifnab25,

Where even is this?

zifnab25,

If leftists ran the country, Trump never would have been elected President. He would have been assigned the job of co-hosting award shows with Kathy Griffin and Joan Rivers, until he OD’d on cocaine in the late 90s.

He and Chris Farley would have dueling eulogies.

Putin is deeply unpopular. Also everyone in Russia is brainwashed. Also the election numbers are made up by a fake guy doing fake things. Also there’s going to be a huge Navalny protest vote and only I can tell you what it is. Also Russians are naturally evil because they support Putin.

zifnab25,

which countries the US has interfered with less

We give them billions a year! We buy and sell each other guns and bombs and shit all day long! We send our chief executives to fucking fundraise off one another endlessness.

ISRAEL’S PM IS FROM PHILADELPHIA!

I would LOVE for the US and Israel to end this utterly toxic relationship.
