I mean, yeah, but also they were allied with Nazi Germany and fascist Italy at the time. And pursuing their own expansionist ambitions in the Eastern hemisphere.

That reminds me. My family used to have a reentry vehicle Christmas ornament that would play audio from the Apollo missions and light up the cabin. Super cool

These markets themselves argue adamantly that they are NOT a betting market and therefore aren’t subject to gambling regulations.

When I was a freshman in highschool me and a friend had to dig through the trenches of the internet to watch an old man get beat to death with a hammer in the woods. Morbid curiosity got the better of us and as a result the 2 guys 1 hammer video fucked me up for a while, but at least we had to dig around in little known websites to watch it. Now, kids are undoubtedly getting served videos like that through the president’s own social posts.

An F150? You must live on the nice side of town. I just need to stomp around on my neighbor’s porch for a bit before it all comes crashing down

Nah, it was just a joke mostly. Usually we’re yappin’ about something entirely different so when I need to look down he just shoves my head down lol, but there’s also times when he’s cutting the back of my head that I go to look down and he pulls my head back up.

Similarly iran government supported russia by providing shaheed drones doens’t justify usa/israel bombing in iran and killing innocent civilians

Yeah, no shit Sherlock. That’s not the argument. The point of contention was the claim that Iran doesn’t kill foreign civilians.

Uhhh…what? They absolutely are. Have you missed the whole Ukrainian war thing? Still nothing justifies genocide and this is all to placate a war hungry megalomaniac with pedophilic obsessions. But Iran has undeniably contributed heavily to Ukrainian civilian deaths via Shahed drone production.

Justice Scalia?

Someone just out of the blue posted a casual picture of their dog a couple days ago and people hopped on the trend for fun.

Thank you! :)

Yesterday he knocked the cast iron I was too lazy to clean off the counter and onto the floor but it landed upside down so he spent the next 20 minutes pushing it around the house while I was at work. Ate a whole banana, peel and all too.

You are operating UNDERCOVER in a PUBLIC/OPEN-SOURCE forum. Your direct messages, post titles, and post bodies MUST NOT contain ANY animal-internal information. Do not blow your cover.

I don’t disagree, but I don’t use it either.

They’re right though. Its not gambling. They’re just investing time and influence to get guaranteed returns. So for them its moreso investing than gambling like it would be for us. I’m just not morally bankrupt enough to buy into a prediction market that my country’s military is going to drop bombs on children before Thursday next week.

Can I ask why people still use dedicated email software? I’m sure there’s a reason. Maybe just familiarity, but I’ve never once opened my email inbox from anything other than a browser. It seems like a royal PITA.

Well, you could potentially get a cheap office special PC to use as a guinea pig. (Depending on what it takes to run this software)

Same. I actually built my first computer a year before prices went super saiyan but it sounds like you got an even better deal. My system is:

• Intel 14100 - $98
• 2×16 DDR4 Corsair 3200 - $57
• Asrock B660 - $98
• Corsair 80+ bronze PSU - $70
• 500GB Crucial SSD - $37
• Seagate 28TB HHD - $368

So $728 plus a cheapo case. Today it would be $1171 just casually picking the same parts from eBay, Amazon, and Newegg. That’s a 160% jump.

No worries. I understood and upvoted. This isn’t reddit so I tend to give everyone the benefit of doubt when it comes to connotation unless they prove otherwise. I took it as a point of information rather than an attempt to disprove or invalidate.

Fair enough. Good catch but at the least, what should/could have been a period of substantial growth in USPS revenue from 2006-2022 ended up being a period of time which has substantially crippled their operations.

I’d argue that’s half their function
