  • Amazon Data Centers on Fire After Iranian Missile Strikes on Dubai [ME-CENTRAL-1]

    Jump

  • Just had a crazy thought. What if that's their plan for retaliation? What are they going to do, go toe to toe with the US military? Fucking suicide. Attack the assets of the real power in America. Cost the billionaires money and they'll go crying to trump to end the war.

  • Caps. Obviously.

  • Polymarket Iran Bets Hit $529 Million as New Wallets Win Big

  • So it's not like say horse betting? Or something with odds like roulette?

  • Reuters/Ipsos poll finds 1 in 4 Americans supports U.S. strikes on Iran

  • Technically that would be 75% don't approve which is not the same. I'd bet a solid chunk of that 75 has no idea what's going on as long as it doesn't affect them. They'd be categorized as "neither approves nor disapproves". They're the worst.

  • Polymarket Iran Bets Hit $529 Million as New Wallets Win Big

  • Soooo where does the money come from? I haven't looked into it but I imagine they just have odds on events like this. How does this not bleed polymarket dry? If people are betting big and winning on low chance outcomes, polymarket has to account for that money somewhere. If it happens more often than the odds would allow, they should be losing money.

  • ‘The most bitter news’: Iran reels as more than 80 children reportedly killed in school bombing

  • Little of column A. Little of column B.

  • $1,000 car loan payments are on the rise, stressing household budgets

    Jump

  • We're paying the last payment on my wife's car this month. We've been getting calls and emails from the dealership telling us what a prefect time it would be to upgrade. One night the gummies kicked in and I decided to reply to the clearly automated and canned email. It was dripping with snark, along the lines of "I'll never buy a car because an email prompted me to". Got a call the next day from the dealership where they apologized... and then went right into a sales pitch.

  • Political storm in Wyoming as far-right activist caught handing checks to lawmakers

  • And the legal definition of bribe is not what it used to be.

  • Let's sign up all the idiot antivaxxers. Tell them they can prove how superior their immune system is and how easy the infection is. Best case scenario we get more data like this to help us learn.

    Jump

  • But they're discontent! How could you be so callous?

  • Did I discover a fake conspiracy theory?

    Jump

  • My recollection was if it was on like school property or some place kids were likely to be. That would trigger some enhancement to the crime. I've never been in a position to need to know if that's true or not.

  • New sodium ion battery stores twice the energy and desalinates seawater

    Jump

  • R&d on these I'm guessing takes a little while. And it greatly depends on what niche they fill. Like the poster above said these might have lower density. For applications that move, that's not usually good. How sensitive are they to hot and cold? That could necessitate thermal management.

  • Kamala Harris Completely Fails to Read the Room on 2028

    Jump

  • I bet the super delegates push both of them until it's just those two. Then they will have a battle of the corporate shill old guards.

  • Arizona Senate GOP passes bill that renames highway after Charlie Kirk

    Jump

  • I hate that this question needs to be asked. But I also need the answer.

  • What is the term for using positive rhetoric to cover up negative actions or behavior?

    Jump

  • I'd say those are both shady behaviors belying ulterior motives.
