If I spent my life savings on power ball tickets, my high-risk moves may pay off…

It likely won’t happen, but a million to one odds is still a chance

You…

You think he’s on trial for getting hookers?

Lots of people, because he’s a violent rapist…

It’s mixing the data that goes in to get the result…

There’s probably a lot of those “Ukraine over run” plates still floating around.

Crazy cheap, but not up to new drop rating.

Honestly tho, plates are more a visual deterrent than anything. Out of anything you’d bring with you, the most likely thing you’d have to use is a tourniquet. Best practice is one on your chest and one on your back. That way if it’s you that needs it, bystanders have one available regardless of which way you fell.

Absolutely ditch the knife. And whatever you’re using the grenade pouch for

Lol, trump really doesn’t know Bibi…

No way in hell he makes it 12 hours straight

Carburator.

It mixes the fuel/air ratio, prepping it before it goes into the engine.

Similarly ram is holding data while it gets adjusted.

It’s not a great analogy, but it’s pretty much all there is

Welcome to real life bro…

The victor writes the history books, so the only time the “bad guys” win, is before a revolution to explain why the asshats had to be overthrown in the first place. Virtually no country has labeled themselves the bad guys in a present moment.

Damn near every war, both sides are assholes. Situations like Ukraine are the abnormality, and Gaza isn’t a war, it’s a genocide against a civilian population.

Real life is messy. Especially when the guy in charge of the world’s biggest military is best described as a horse loose in a hospital…

Fuck everything about James “crypt keeper” Carville

He’s a giant piece of shit, and the orchestrator of the neoliberals movement.

No matter what happens, he always claims it means the party has to move right.

Between Ukraine and Iran, everyone’s resolve for nukes will strengthen.

People forget Ukraine had nukes, and gave them up after Russia promised to never invade. Like, over 30 years ago.

Promises are words, but nukes are forever, even if you don’t maintain them, your opponents would be crazy to risk it

Literally no one needs that level of wealth

They’re choosing everyday to hoard it knowing full well how detrimental that is to the vast majority of other humans.

Every fucking second of every day, they are choosing their personal.pleasure over the rest of us.

They’re not gonna magically change their mind and start wanting to pay taxes.

We have to make them.

Thanks!

Nothing instills investors with confidence more than a nervous employee with a death grip on the door handle button.

Haven’t been keeping a close eye, but anybody is better than Cuomo

Mamdani has been endorsed by AOC, and seems to be who the rest of the progressives are coalescing around.

Even with ranked choice, Cuomo and Weiner are going to split the neoliberal sex pest vote.

You’re telling people on Lemmy they may have to leave reddit?

This is like going around lifeboat to lifeboat to tell people the Titanic is sinking.

What kind of response are you expecting? The people who didn’t leave reddit are going to be on Reddit and say it’s not time to leave…

The people on Lemmy who left reddit, are going to say it’s past time to leave.

I genuinely don’t understand how this is a “test for lemmy”

Using semafor to complain about an AI company…

Not so. The Tesla safety operators appear to always have their thumb on the “Open Door” button of their door, which is sort of weird to see. It’s like every safety operator is getting ready to say the Irish goodbye to their passengers at any given moment.

Turns out, Full Self Driving disengages if you open the door. So that is probably being used as a janky, factory-standard kill switch for the autonomous driving system that causes the vehicle to come to controlled stop.

There is absolutely nothing stopping the human employee from sitting behind the wheel except optics…

Like, if there’s three passengers, does the employee keep shotgun?

Does a passenger get the driver’s seat? Or do they all have to sit in the backseat so people can see it’s driving itself?

Is the plan for highspeed situations really just opening a fucking door at speed?

The level of stupidity is, as always, fascinating…

Lol…

Is anyone going to tell them that since these charbots routinely scrap stuff under copyright that they have no legal right to, that the chances of them retaining user logs without notifying user was essentially 100%?

If a service is “free” then the users are the product.

For fucks sake leave Biden alone.

Bringing him up only hurts the Dem party.

It doesn’t matter if Biden is slightly better than trump. There’s no gentleman’s agreement that when Republicans run a shitty candidate the majority of Americans hate, that Dems need to do the same.

Progressive policy is overwhelming popular, and we got a good number of politicians who authentically support those popular positions.

That’s who we need to be talking about. Not running PR for a geriatric that fucked us over and probably bears more personal responsibility for trump being president than anyone else in the country

If Biden’s old ass would have let a fair primary happen, whoever won it would have easily beaten trump. But he put himself over the country, like countless neoliberals have before him.

Quick edit:

Thought this was the first time I’d disagree with the new chair, but bringing up Biden was all the author, Martin doesn’t mention him once:

“In January — speaking to the entire nation at his Inauguration – Donald Trump proclaimed ‘We will measure our success not only by the battles we win, but also by the wars that we end, and perhaps most importantly, the wars we never get into.’

Today, against his own words, the president sent bombers into Iran.

Americans overwhelmingly do not want to go to war.

Americans do not want to risk the safety of our troops abroad.

Americans do not want a president who bypasses our constitution and pulls us towards war without Congressional approval.

Donald Trump needs to bring his case to Congress immediately.”

Eventually I’ll disagree with Martin on something, but he’s killing it so far. I’m even optimistic enough to see this part:

What’s crazy about this whole thing, is how many people I see insenting this can’t be WW3, solely because there have been multiple events happening that people said could lead to WW3…

Like, think of it as placing straw on the back of a camel.

Eventually you’re going to get to the point where lots of people say another straw will break it. That’s just reality, it can’t hold an infinite amount of straw.

Now imagine how ridiculous you’d be for walking up when the camel can barely stand, and loudly and proudly telling everyone the camel’s back will never break, because people have been saying it would happen for the past hour.

Rather than realizing that some people would guess early to be safe, because guessing late means your break the camels back and are shit out of luck.

trumps going to keep throwing straw till the camels a bloody heap, the man has never shown restraint in his life. It’s a matter of when, not if.

So if it doesn’t happen after this, it doesn’t mean it’ll never happen, just that were even closer than before.
