In retrospect, the idea that creating a globally accepted alternative to the dollar would come with zero consequences to the system of global free trade it props up might just be the funniest bit of half-baked cryptobro ideology.

Yeah, it’s only once the photons in front of it could already have gotten there, so it’s like photons from the tail end of the pulse are catching up to the front as it emerges, even though they haven’t even entered the cloud yet.

I think it comes free with a deeply embedded belief in the coming thousand year space reich- sorry, millenarian kingdom of heaven- sorry, era of cosmic endowment after infinite growth and Progress inevitably consume all available resources on earth. If growth is infinite, then eventually we’ll need to put everything in space, so we may as well solve all the annoying little problems of practicality ahead of time to get a head start on manifest destiny. There are many roads to get there, but it’s all but unavoidable once you start sincerely believing in exponential curves.

I’m pretty sure Creation Engine is a middleware relicensing nightmare. SpeedTree’s SDKs are in there, Havok, the core NetImmerse libraries from the early 2000s that they forked… It’s unlikely to ever see the light of day as a compilable source release, this century or probably ever. At least there’s OpenMW, sloooowly catching up.

I can only wish for a less internet-poisoned figurehead of anti-genocide activism, but it’s still amazing to me how a man who spends all his waking hours in front of a webcam is enough of a big deal to be considered a national security threat. This is a man who has spent years in a self-imposed hell of nonstop news clips and hate chatter clapbacks, constantly under attack and arguing with people who hate him, and now the anger is actually coming from a place of power. Hasan is like a guy made in a vat to get in a loud, public fight with the ADL.

Funny how for all the quotes they pulled, the article couldn’t dig out any instances of the more common traps leftist criticism of Israel falls into, like slipping into ZOG/“Khazar elite” talking points or rants about how murder is “their” culture. It’s honestly just laughable at this point seeing organizations like the ADL try to argue that anyone pointing out the obvious fact that Hamas aren’t baby-eating Islamist rape demons is engaging in religious hatred while geo-targeted online ads from Christian Zionist organizations blast me with “Jesus the messiah will save you” daily. This whole “debate” is a joke, but Hasan is an experienced clown, so he’s in his element.

Oh, the white supremacy even against other Jews was there from the beginning. It’s a real mess.

Western liberals weren’t paying attention to the years of massive protests against corruption and consolidation of power that make Trump and his pet SCOTUS look like amateurs even to the liberal-Zionist Ashkenazi centrists, starting well before 2023. Western media loves to totally ignore the millions of Israeli subjects living under permanent martial law, too, so of course their viewership would say “democracy” based on what they were shown. The final crack in the facade doesn’t make the lies before it real.

Ask the average Mizrahi restaurant worker living in a moldy studio sublet in Rehovoth what good that weapon money is doing them. The upper classes of both countries make out just fine, everyone else suffers.

Federal money goes into the pockets of US corporations, spare weapons using the same tech “mysteriously” show up around the world in the hands of extremist groups the US openly condemns, and everyone involved gets to pat themselves on the backs for “supporting the Jewish people” as their stock portfolios climb.

No, all the danger to children comes from satanic pedophiles cold-messaging strangers from trailer parks in hell. Billionaires can always be trusted with sensitive data and photos of children. Parents also notoriously never do anything bad to their children.

9 months is a typical direct transfer, using a traditional rocket engine whose thrust is so high you can basically treat it as infinite: accelerate up to your transfer speed in a few minutes and coast until you need to slow down in a similarly negligible amount of time. You need to set a lot of gas on fire in those few minutes, though. Electric propulsion is so low thrust that it can’t put you on that kind of direct trajectory in one go, so the trip is more of a slow spiral around the sun with continuous thrust the whole way. The tradeoff for everything taking forever is unbelievable fuel savings, which is a surprisingly common occurrence in space travel.

The playful and wise goblinbot…

Time tends to sand off the rough edges of any organization that wants to keep pulling in new members and that doesn’t need a framework of total control to protect itself from fizzling out early. It’s an evolutionary process, not just historical whitewashing. Though it’s also historical whitewashing.

Not even two spines, there’s some almost impressive Escheresque fuckery going on with how the page of the book he’s writing in is actually the cover of another? Good to know people “care” about children with disabilities enough to spend extra money on worse textbooks just for them, but not enough to actually read them, I guess.

He was all over TV the other day, joining the crowds to attend the ridiculous Nakba day propaganda ceremony. I have no doubts he’s been in just fine health lately, and if anything he’s been playing up how unwell he is to get out of court dates over and over again for months. The other big reason for his recent disappearance from public view is the likelihood of his beach house getting another knock on the door from a Shahed, maybe luckier this time.

Most of the energy from the rocket that launched the satellite went into pushing it fast sideways. If you wanted to slow it down enough to drop straight down, you’d just about need a second rocket to stop it.

It’s the difference between “shooting and crying” and “shooting and laughing.” there’s no shame anymore, 0 back pressure against the worst possible depravity, no reason to waste money on PR anymore that could be spent on more bombs, because what’s anyone going to do about it?

Well, obviously?
