Wait wait wait, you’re telling me that Ukraine might be antisemitic? But but but zelenskyyy is Jewish, he could never be an anti-Semite. I mean, unlike those Bad Jews in America who support kkkhamas!

Laziness is the true mother of invention. Almost everything has been invented by people who wanted to do less work.

After grad school I got sort of stranded in a small town and took a job as an insurance salesperson for a few months. Even that was too ghoulish for me and I became physically ill from stress and quit. I can’t imagine what sort of person could work in debt collection, hospital billing, or insurance denials for more than a couple of desperate months without quitting or doing something drastic.

State-owned corporations vs. corporation-owned state.

Yeah, this aspect of the movie drives me crazy, too.

Does anyone know how much nuclear infrastructure is in there?

Virtually all of it. The Pantex plant where the overwhelming majority of nuclear weapons are assembled and disassembled is in the Texas Panhandle.

Yep! Perfectly cromulent SSD. The ones people tell you to avoid are the weird “brand you’ve never heard of with a weird name DRAMless cheapo specials”

The real issue there isn’t actually the lack of dram, but the low quality components used, because it’s a super sketchy low end product. Once you get into recognizable brands and mainstream product lines, you pretty much can’t go wrong other than getting a bad deal which this isn’t at that price.

Go for it!

Imagine a space race where the US had a revolution in 1932, and the space race was like a gentleman’s contest between the USSA, USSR, and PRC to find cool shit first to get the record book W before sharing it with all the nations of the world.

Looks like people were allowed to select up to two answers, but it also looks like they’re obfuscating the level of consensus and making the “no” votes take up a disproportionately large amount of the final visual graph size.

His unending anxiety about everything is such a mood.

Not a president, but Canada had a female PM for like 4 months in 1993.

What made them the best?

It’s operating as designed. The only thing that will shut it down is the end of American imperialism which will require the complete end of the US.

Need someone to make a fake google AI answer saying that the worlds largest cockroach is Megalovania Longpenis.

Covertly inject with miracle whip

Did the burgerbrains really think that they can just get away with nuking someone else and their allies were just not going to react?

yeah it’s not like that happened in living memory of 1/6th of americans and the majority of people in congress or anything. That’d be crazy.

2049 is only 25 years away…

It’s early in development but the idea is sort of a world revolution concept with socialist states of various tendencies and levels of legitimacy squaring off against reactionary nations to spread the revolution. Still figuring out the modding tools and how the game works but it’s likely going to be heavily dependent on the Sphere of Influence dlc that isn’t out yet.
