I highly doubt that, but even if it were true, it literally takes one nuke to change the entire course of humanity

Who keeps putting these stupid notes in all my shit?

I believe only Delta has said they will eventually use that kind of pricing, but I dont think they actually started yet. Ive tried checking the price of airline tickets on different devices that are both mine or not mine, and the prices are always the same whether they know its me or not.

The only thing “dynamic” about airline ticket pricing is that it changes over time, but that is not personalized pricing where people get charged different amounts at the same time. The article is conflating those two things

How many other department head jabronis can even do a proper hegstand?

Thats a spicy meatball

Its honestly kind of hilarious to see the military directed by morons who are obsessed with “lethality” and culture war nonsense, meanwhile they lack even a rudimentary understanding of how the military functions.

Anyone who understands how a military works could tell you that logistics is not just half the battle, its basically the entire battle. During WWII, 8/10 servicemen worked in logistics. The Nazis were defeated via logistical advantages. American military dominance was created and sustained through the buildup of interconnected bases which enabled them to quickly and efficiently move people, equipment, and supplies around the world. Without that system working effectively there is no such thing as the “lethality” that these dumbasses goon over. Apparently, they believe it comes from thin air

Not to defend any of that stuff, but this has nothing to do with tourism. Theyre firing people on the media side to replace them with AI

Im not going to dispute the reality that doing whatever you want on your own property, assuming its large enough that youre basically alone, is kind of de facto legal in the sense that you most likely wont get in trouble for doing it.

But, that doesnt make it actually legal. The way that most state laws on DUIs are written you can get a DUI doing a lot of things that are nothing like driving a car on a public roadway.

One example: a Zamboni DUI in Fargo, ND where the defense contested that you cant get a DUI on a zam under state law

Defense attorney Lindsey Haugen said during the bench trial Tuesday that the law is not clear whether a Zamboni is considered a vehicle, or whether it is illegal to drive the machine on the ice while drunk. He also said witnesses are hazy on whether Anderson drove the Zamboni on a road behind the arena to dump ice or whether that road was accessible to other vehicles.

But Municipal Court Judge Stephen Dawson said state law is written to include vehicles “such as” a Zamboni.

Afterward, Haugen said his research of DUI law found specific vehicles such as tractors, snowmobiles, recreational vehicles and boats, but he found no references to a Zamboni.

Looking at this, you can clearly see that the law in ND outlines a ton of stuff that tends to happen on private (or otherwise closed) property and not on a roadway using a car. Boating is an obvious example since its in the water, but recreational vehicles definitely refers to ATVs and side by sides or whatever they call them. Tractors are driven on roadways sometimes but obviously most of their use is on private land. Snowmobiling also doesnt occur on open roadways, and at most occasionally crosses them.

If a snowmobiler is drunk and hits a snowshoer or crashes on a privately owned mountain, they still will get a DUI. If a guy operates a zamboni drunk in a private non-profit ice rink they still get a DUI. If you got drunk and went go-karting you could get a DUI.

If you get wasted and do donuts on your own private field, whether in a snowmobile, a truck, or a zamboni, legally you could definitely get a DUI. But you wouldn’t probably get one. There is a worthwhile distinction to be made there. If you and a friend get wasted and take the ‘boni out to whip shitties in your private field, but he flies off and dies, you’re definitely getting a DUI in the investigation of that death

It’s all very “if a tree drives drunk in the middle of a forest, but no one is around to see it, is it a DUI?” The answer is still yes, or at least it would be in a world where trees drive cars

You 100% can. People have gotten DUIs for operating a Zamboni while drunk, which is a vehicle that drives entirely in a closed environment not on the roadway.

You can get a DUI for driving anything while intoxicated that requires a drivers license to operate, regardless of where you are operating it. You can also get a DUI for operating anything on a roadway while intoxicated regardless of if it requires a license, like a bicycle, ATV, golf cart, etc.

That said, people who get blasted and drive around their own privately owned fields are not likely to get caught. That doesnt mean that just because they dont get caught that its not illegal to do

In 1995, the company attempted to expand to Europe and opened a restaurant in London,[5] but the effort was abandoned and the restaurant was sold in early 1996

People in London just thought it was a normal restaurant

Unions are funded by employee dues. Its fairly easy to work around that idea by simply closing a store and waiting until the regional union quickly folds from lack of funding.

What unions really need is to be large enough to weather an individual store being closed and losing those employee dues. Unionizing one location or an insignificant amount of locations is not effective. Collective bargaining doesnt work when the collective that is bargaining hardly has numbers.

Thats why in traditional trades you see locals of electrical workers, plumbers, etc. You dont see “Bob’s Plumbing Co. Workers Union”. Its not effective. The same is true for general service jobs. Starbucks workers union or Apple employees union is too narrow of a segment to meaningfully survive. Las Vegas has successful hospitality unions because there are a shitload of hotels, and therefore a shitload of hotel workers banded together. If you just had “MGM employees union” or “Holiday Inn Worker’s United” they would have folded like a house of cards

Regionality is great when the union has a wide tent. Without a wide tent its not a solution. Local 5XX whatever have you of a specific trade is a union that works because no matter where that union employee goes for work they are backed by the union

Its amazing that since then we haven’t had much success in even landing anything unmanned on the moon, let alone manned. The fact that they weren’t ripped to shreds like most other things weve ever tried to land, using that era’s technology, is absolutely fucking bonkers

E: Im assuming someone downvoted this bc they think Im saying this as in “the moon landing was fake” or something, which is not the case. Its just incredibly difficult to land something on the moon successfully, even with all the modern technology that we have. Resilience (2025), Hakuto-R (2023), Luna 25 (2023), and Beresheet (2019) all crashed in attempts to land on the moon using modern sensors and flight equipment that have infinitely more capability than what the US used to put men on the moon. The Apollo Guidance Computer (AGC) used a 1.024 MHz processor, 2 KB of RAM, and 72 KB of read-only memory. You would need 4,000,000 times more RAM to simply play kerbal space program.

I dont believe the moon landing was faked whatsoever. Russia was watching every step of the way and would have happily pointed out if it had never happened. This was the height of the cold war. But instead they congratulated the US on its achievements. That said, its fucking insane that we were able to do it. Modern equipment has a less than 50% chance of landing safely, the odds of them being successful back then were infinitesimally smaller

Not so fun fact, Switzerland became a “democracy” in 1848, but some parts of the country didnt give women the right to vote until they were forced to in the 1990s. At that point, there were only 9 other countries left in the world where women did not have suffrage

Im sure they covered it on the local nightly news roundup of “people who got shot today”, an STL classic
