The numbers were cooked before Trump and now under him they are are extra crispy.
The stock market is also disassociated from the realities on the ground for most Americans. As long as the top 10% of consumers continue to spend there will be no change.
Yeah fuck that, if you lay down with pigs don’t get upset when you wake up covered in shit.
Yes, the only ships getting through before were Iranian or their allies like China. The real threat is if US allies like France or Japan cut separate deals with Iran to move their own ships through the strait. This would undermine the US position.
Blockading the strait cuts off China and keeps other nations from circumventing the US.
Yep that’s the one!
Of course since Obama did it, it doesn’t count, would never have worked, and probably would have helped Iran develop the bomb faster… /s
I had my FIL make this claim that high gas prices are a small price to pay for disarming Iran and taking away their ability to create nuclear weapons.
I wonder what his excuse will be after TACO Tuesday when Trump accepted the Iranian 10 point peace plan which included their right to uranium enrichment, mussels and drones. I’m sure Fox News will feed him some other bullshit line.
Get yourself a proper heated bidet and you’ll never go back. I bought a Toto it warms the seat, automatically shoots soothing warm water at your angry brown eye and then blow dry’s your bum.
Best purchase ever!
In a world where inputs to the process of chip creation can scale you would be correct.
However it takes at least a decade to bring a power plant online restrict power generation. Access to natural gas and oil can be distrupted further restricting access to power. There is a finite supply of water in most areas that can not be expanded . Disruption to trade routes due to war and tariffs make expanding the inputs to production difficult. Reduces access to capital due to a lack of faith in the US government and rising interest rates will restrict that access.
The world of plenty we lived in was dying even before Covid killed it off. We live in a world of scarcity and disrupted supply and resources now.
No it’s gonna suck. Those data centers will consume fresh water and power driving up costs of both over the long term.
The chips will also become obsolete or will degrade over time. After 7 years they will require replacement. Same is true with memory and ram.
It’s never going to end.
It’s kind of like when someone asks when do you need to respect kids privacy when they are changing. The right answer is whenever the kid signals they want privacy or asks for it.
I have a ten year old who still occasionally ends up in our bed at night. But he does it to be near our dog who usually also sneaks into bed with us at some point in the night.
As long as nothing was forced you are fine OP.
I mean they have a larger budget than the Marine’s… What could go wrong?
Your excluding a good segment of the population if you are basing it on those who frequent Lemmy’s forums.
Kids likely don’t frequent forums like Lenny. Parents are usually too busy to care about said forum.
That just leaves childless adults. Which is likely why you see such a bias
So uhhh where are you getting all these EMPs from?
Civ III was the height of the Civilization franchise.
Just act gay or trans and come into the recruiter wearing a Mexican flag.
Exactly which means superior build quality and a great experience. Parents will be snapping these up in the fall for back to school.
No legal argument is necessary. Just look at history. The rich and well connected have always lived by a different set of rules.

I knew the Orange Buffoon could help fucking up the oil markets like he’s fucked up every other market. I put a ton of money into US oil futures and now hopefully I’ll make some money on his idiocracy.

You aren’t wrong. But what you just described is exactly why most companies choose thin clients.
No customization, no unauthorized software installs, no distractions for staff and they will just run forever without major updates. All IT has to do is maintain a server or offsite cloud environment.
Would I personally want one… no. But I can see this as an alternative to non techie people who just need a cheap computer for email, web browsing and the occasional word document.
War, war never changes…
