But the people might not own the cars, they’re entirely separate

I wonder if “code” means pull requests and they have a load of automated ones to update versions of external and internal libraries

Ah yeah he’s a bit obscure but he’s been pushing this American Monarchism angle for a long time. Absolutely bizarre entry into the culture wars, decades later I can’t tell if he’s a really an American monarchist or just providing cover and beliefs to help totalitarian fascists.

Normally I’d apologise for making people aware of him but as you’re a mod on a big forum you sadly probably do need to know who he is

Curtis yarvin is a slime

if it annexes Ukraine it it has multiple new NATO countries at its land border.

The idea of this strategic depth is, ultimately, an excuse. Poland didn’t join NATO because it wanted to be a war torn wreck protecting Germany from suffering if Russia tries to invade.

The NATO countries bordering Russia aren’t disposable. Bordering super powers is actually fine, if you’re not a psycopath

It’s a bit of an exaggeration right now, but I see this as two Chinese client states co-operating.

With how dependent Russia is on China it won’t be much of an exaggeration for long

Russia can stop being at war at any second, if it chooses to

If someone sees an Angus steakhouse and actually goes in and buys food they must be blind. It’s the most obvious looking tourist trap of a chain you can imagine.

It perches itself on corners in busy parts of London next to major tube stations and preys on the dimmest and laziest tourists. It’s genuinely worrying so many people fall for it and go in, reviews or not.

Recommending it is more of a joke than a serious attempt to convince anyone it’s good.

Won’t compete or can’t compete?

I’m not 100% sure Jared didnt

I agree but I can see why someone might not want to invite the people they feel ruined their home back to have another go.

An unconventional response? Like, giving a load of idiots by the world’s most used shipping lane weapons to blow up shipping whenever they want?

Absolutely they’ve been doing this for ages. Fuck them and fuck netanyahu

Light my arse, from the start they’ve interrupted with adverts for their own crap making it barely tolerable. Even on the adfree tier.

Canceled and no intention of ever going back. Measuring your ad load by American standards doesn’t work when your competition is netflix and iPlayer.

They’re good it’s just hard to believe

The us, and perhaps the west in general, hasn’t really used red lines since Obama threatened Syria if they used chemical weapons and then didn’t follow through.

Til I use “well actually” too much. I will edit, thank you for the constructive help with my shitpost

Do bombs explode? Or is it the explosives inside of them that are exploding?

Did it really need quotes?
Please don’t “well actually” this

Jfc Christ Lemmy.

Every single comment misunderstanding the point. The batteries are exploding because there’s explosives in them. This does make them exploding batteries. They explode because they are partially made with explosives. Please don’t “well actually” this.

No this is not a description of something Israel did, it’s a hypothetical way to do a similar attack to show how within reach of idiot terrorists it is.

Raising the idea of doing this so everyone is thinking about it is extremely bad for us all. Thanks Israel.
