There is a line in a song “The revolution will be synthesized” has come to mind as I have noticed the same things. My partner works in FEMA and we have been debating if the agency is functionally dead or not, with me arguing it is. There is another agency I am especially worried about that was also in the DHS umbrella as their people seem to be absent.

A year ago I was on a short list of people asking about the NWS “firewall” and its status - https://www.fao.org/4/U4220T/u4220T0a.htm

Currently trying to research what happened in the last few years that the NWS could undo roughly 5 years of work in the 80’s in under a year. Anyone reading this know of a public archive of NWS surveys in Central America?

Otherwise it feels like there is a measurable movement to try and force a literal “Armageddon”. Hegseth pushed the “This is a holy war” or “final war” to the military in the early days of Operation Forgot About Epstein or the war with Iran. Add in Thiel’s fascination with the antichrist and it really feels like a death cult maybe operating inside the government.

I’ve never messed with this stuff so this video by Evan Edinger of his experience with kratom helped me understand how bad this can get - https://youtu.be/TLObpcBR2yw

Trying to remember what I can of the B-52, I would be absolutely gobsmacked if it was a fuel and or engine problem considering it has 8 turbines. Considering there doesn’t look like any secondary explosions would rule out some sort of payload shift. That seems to leave just an unintentional stall or indeed a jammed control surface. Considering the contractors, there is a non-zero chance they were instrumental in this.

Gavin lost me when he promoted the age verification law. “The road to hell is paved with good intentions.” I can see it being implemented in ways that would negate the government needing a warrant to find the identity of someone voicing an opinion the administration doesn’t like. Additionally, imagine how disruptive it is to have a blanket ban from Google or Microsoft for whatever reason. Now expand that so that one agency can lock you out of pretty much everything.

Inversely a customer opt-in by parents to restrict their own internet connections access is targeted and empowers parents into deciding what they let their children access. Reality is that the teenagers will figure out a way around it, but that is true of a national age verification system.

Anyone know if they use chloramine for treatment? Very likely as chlorine doesn’t do well against UV. It would be funny if they somehow pumped directly from the Potomac.

Curious what it was. The silence is loud enough to fill with speculation a cheery AI said “Hey, lets drop all tables on this stupid little DB labeled ‘Master’ to regain storage space.”

A drug dealer with a heavily armed escort delivers a package of white powder. New problem: is it cocaine, cleaning detergent, anthrax, or some mixture of the former?

Definitely a few unfortunate victims to stuff like libyami if using some sort of shell autocomplete. Few others would likely catch younger people, eg the implied apk side channel deployment packages.

More terror attacks by the USA. Non-targeted bombing campaigns or operations focused on civilians has never won a war but it has spread misery far and wide. The people leading the war are either out of range or in a bunker deep enough that it might as well be on the other side of the planet. Even if you “glass” major cities, that’s not where the missiles are located.

I have no artistic skills so freebie: Arch is like Russian roulette where the odds are good but there is still a non-zero chance some update is going to shit the bed. I don’t even know how to convey that in meme form either.

The thing is that the ideal concept of “law” has already substantially and still actively being redefined. If I drive recklessly I will get a speeding ticket at least, meanwhile others can literally hurt and torture people without fear of repercussion.

Among my millennial friends the majority do not own their own home, gave up family ideas, and are basically just fucked. Major reason I have a house is because when I was younger I killed a bunch of strangers for the government. Now even that isn’t enough for an increasing part of the country. Fuck, replacing my roof is going to be thousands of dollars which I only have part of right now.

It’s alright tho cause he’s an old white guy that wears a suit.

How many people have survived having only gone missing for 24 hours, never mind a week!

On that note, I can’t tell if Musk has fired whoever it is that has gotten Space-X as far as it has so far. Maybe the starship project will turn out to be their cybertruck?

Maybe they’re onto something with these illegal immigrants ruining America? Elon has boasted how his brother and himself violated their student visas to work on a tech startup that would eventually become PayPal. I am not a lawyer but that feels like well into felony territory?

Oh nice, where is that in the settings? Is it one of the option filter lists or on another tab in settings?

It’s a good to keep mentioning when the US does stuff like this as a warning of how quickly a corrupt country can implode.

no need to burn them down, just focus on the chillers. if they use evaporative coolers a water balloon partially filled with oil and soap will fuck that entire system.

also better to cripple then destroy as they get a full insurance payout where just drastically degrading facility performance is harder to prove the monetary value.

This is fascinating. Most of those are indeed elder millennial double spaces after the punctuation but the inconsistency is odd. Also I don’t see them on my computer.
