Deal! (i’m swithing to Linux)

I have no proof, but I feel like the AI push and Turnip getting re-elected and his regression of the EPA rules sounds like this whole AI thing was an excuse to burn more fossil fuels.

If I was invested in AI, and considering AI’s thirst for electricity, I would absolutely make a similar investment in energy. That way, as the AI server farms suck up the electricity I would get at least some of that money back from the energy market.

Read it backwards.

This is some of the goofiest shit I have ever heard. If these biblical Nephilim giants ever existed, and someone had evidence of that existence, what would be the motivation for hiding it?

Scientists do not avoid biblical references because of some vast conspiracy. They leave that stuff out because those stories do not agree with their findings and/or do not add any useful information.

A great many scientists are Christian, Jewish, or Muslim. If the Nephilim ever existed and evidence was found that proved it, scientists would not shut up about it. It would be impossible to keep it quiet.

Can you imagine the museum traffic if such evidence existed? People would travel from all over the world to see even a tiny fragment. No curator in his or her right mind would pass up that opportunity!

While I mostly agree with this, I have one significant hurdle I am unable to overcome. What other choice do I have?

I can’t stand most Democrats. They suck! But they are a far cry better than voting Republican. And voting for a third party feels like wasting my vote.

If there was a third party candidate that focused on climate change and social issues and had even the slightest chance of winning, I would vote for them in a second. Until then, I am stuck voting for the lesser of two evils.

Tyler Perry?

Back before the election, Trump spoke about the fictional character Hannibal Lecter, at least twice, like he was a real person. Trump was never cognitively there!

I must say, the butter is the only one these I would actually buy. Even then, only if I was going to make toast or something. I use store brand butter for baking.

Did you ever login to your Google account on the other phone? If so, I would guess that is how.

That was the plan for this administration all along. Trump is a Russian asset. He has never been interested in helping Ukraine achieve peace.

The framing gets sealed and protected from moisture. It is not exposed to the outside. Exterior exposed wood is either pressure treated to resist rot, is a species that is naturally rot resistant, or it is painted.

Remember, the article is talking about altering wood to be both transparent and biodegradable. That sounds like a window to me. That is a role that is currently filled with either glass or plastic. You would not choose a biodegradable material for exterior use and most windows are used on the outside of a structure.

I’m skeptical of this for two reasons.

1. The thing that makes plastic as a building material so useful is that it takes forever to degrade. Biodegradable building materials seems like it would be counterproductive and make the problem worse, not better.

2. So far, every time some new variety of biodegradable plastic comes along, it turns out to be a big fat lie.

If we assume that this is a move for Putin against NATO, the US taking control of Greenland could result in Russia gaining a naval staging area to attack Europe.

But that is the thing. Trump is the ONLY president in the last 70 years to publicly express an interest in this. Considering Trump’s apparent loyalty and dedication to Putin, I have to assume that this is entirely Putin’s idea. Trump is too stupid to come up with this plan on his own and acquiring Greenland only makes sense if the end game is to cut ties with Europe and strengthen ties with Russia. Otherwise, it’s more beneficial to the US to let Denmark be responsible for governing there.

Fuck Trump and Fuck Putin! They are both a cancer on the world and we will all be better off when they are both gone.

Translation: Denying interest in this tells me that this has everything to do with Russia.

Prior to Russian puppet “Trump” talking about taking over Greenland, I had not ever heard of a US interest in having more control over that area. The US already has a military base with a naval port there. Unless the plan is to break a bunch of treaties and destabilize Europe, there would be no need for the US to annex Greenland.

Isn’t it about time for Putin to fall out of a window?

If they had focused their campaign on helping the middle class, helping the poor, and acknowledged that Palestinians are people too, they would have a chance.

If they focused on environmental issues and the rights of individuals they would have had a chance.

If they had called Trump a criminal, because he is, at every stop, they would have had a chance.

If they did all of those things, and meant it, they would have won!

Instead they tried to appeal to business owners, Republicans who don’t like Trump, and people with money. That’s not what Democrats want. That’s not who Democrats are. That, is why they lost.

Stunning? Don’t you mean predictable? Trump has been a puppet for Russia the entire time. He takes Russia’s side every chance he gets! How is this not obvious at this point?

Because Warner Brothers owns the rights to all DC games right now and nobody at Warner has any idea how to actually produce good video games. The Arkham games were good because they came out before loot boxes and online-only games were a thing. Now if a game doesn’t earn a billion dollars in the first year, the game is considered a failure.
