  • The problem is that Tesla has become a self fulfilling prophecy. Not in any ability to actually make the products they advertise, but in making investors money. So many people have invested so much that the stock price now effectively describes investor’s aspirations for money, not their faith in Tesla. This has been true for some time. The value of the stock has been largely divorced from the reality of production targets, new products, or even the endless controversies.

  • My bet is tomorrow.

    Some marines probably woke up this morning and got issued cold weather gear for a surprise arctic exercise.

  • I dream of seeing claymore roomba on the news

  • So would the government be handing out guns or what?

  • For what? There’s a reason it has the population of a small city.

  • I’ve had the opposite experience. Mint has just worked on literally every piece of hardware I’ve ever owned.

  • Everything is higher than the government reports.

    Trump fired the guy that reported the unemployment numbers for reporting accurate numbers. I assume everything since is propaganda.

  • Also, if something has incapacitated the pilot and copilot, the odds that any of the passengers are even conscious seem pretty low.

  • It’s actually really expensive to get things to the sun.

    The easiest ice covered rock to get to from earth would be Europa. He might also confuse it with Greenland as an added bonus.

  • There is no difference. The traces of minerals that make it pink are so minute that the human tongue can’t pick them up. It’s salt, it’s a rock, it tastes like salt.

    Bigger chunks of salt taste saltier because there is in fact more salt per chunk. That’s the only difference between different types of table salts.

  • Western powers promised Ukraine protection against attack or invasion by themselves and Russia in the December 5th, 1994 Budapest Memorandum.

    The US, France, UK, Russia, and China all agreed not to invade Ukraine and in fact to provide protection, and in exchange, Ukraine gave up their nukes.

    Russia violated this just 20 years later when they invaded and stole Crimea from Ukraine, and now 30 years later they are trying to conquer the entire country.

    Thats why everyone is so hell bent on providing support for Ukraine. Not just because it’s the right thing to do, but because they were promised protection by world powers.

  • Audiobooks helped me get back into reading. It’s a different medium, but I’m still getting the story.

    And now I can enjoy a good story and fold laundry or do other chores at the same time.

  • From what I can tell, there’s only one 200V cap in a PS1, so as long as you don’t short that you’ll be fine.

    I still caution against the advice of feeling open electrical components to find problems. Just use a multimeter. You short something with a meter and you just need new leads, short something spicy with your fingers and you could either get a nasty sting, or stop your heart. The risk/reward on that seems a little off.

  • Don’t touch the inside of a psu, this can kill you very rapidly and you’ll feel it the whole time.

  • Is that gamble worth the lives of nearly every living thing on the planet and the future of human civilization?

    Russia alone has enough nuclear weapons to cause a mass extinction event. Even if no one else fires a single one, they could erase life as we know it.

    If Putin sees a Leopard tank in Moscow, are you sure he wouldn’t order a launch? And if Britain or the French see those missiles and bombers, are you sure they won’t launch in retaliation?

    That’s the logic that European leaders are operating under. If they pull the trigger on article 5 and launch a war with Russia, even if they win, everyone could still lose literally everything.

  • I thought all the hesitation was because of the nukes.

    I’m pretty sure it’s the nukes.

  • To be fair, Soyuz has been launching people to space for nearly as long as NASA has existed. If there’s one thing the Russians know how to build, it’s the Soyuz spacecraft and rocket.

    Now the launch pad did get fucking destroyed, which is kinda funny. But the rocket itself worked perfectly fine.

  • Do you call a plumber every time your sink or toilet backs up?

    Maintenance is one thing, major repairs are another.

    I wouldn’t call a plumber first thing to unclog a toilet, and I wouldn’t go to a mechanic just for them to dump oil out and measure the right amount of oil back in.

    Now if the engine is making weird noises, or it’s not shifting right or braking correctly, then yeah, go to a mechanic. Mechanics are way more familiar with internal workings and can diagnose strange issues.

  • And how exactly would they force the United States to do anything?

    “Join Us or we’ll start a two front war to make you join us” is hardly a convincing argument.
