Is it more stable? I always ended up getting either a kraken or like 2 fps with a giant space station.

As always, buying a used previous gen flagship is the best value.

You have to keep inflation in mind. 550 would be 450 2019 dollars.

Not really a countermeasure, but the scalping certainly proved that there is a lot of people willing to buy their stuff at high prices.

The article is wrong. You don’t need high growth, any amount of growth more than 0 over a long time frame will inevitably see a civilization spread throughout the galaxy. If there was a civilization a hundred million years old in our galaxy it would be noticeable.

F35 is guaranteed to be better than a “6th generation” Chinese plane and they can be upgraded anyway. And it’s actually very successful now with a very cheap per plane cost.

It’s more about sensors and communication, there’s no reason you can’t have f35 use drones and stuff. But the better plane will see and target the enemy first. And it can operate without GPS. In other words it’s better to have 3000 f35s flying missions plus a bunch of drones. Being able to deliver a lot of firepower first is a huge deal.

It’s partially because of the previous term, it’s not the same as a random person about to be president for the first time.

That’s not how proof works.

This was always wrong as a meme though. They weren’t talking about price of bananas at the store. It was a frozen chocolate banana dessert stand in LA on the beach. 10 dollars isn’t an unreasonable price for basically a food truck item, her guess was higher than the actual price listed but it’s not unreasonable like the quote suggests.
