You act like it's easy. Republican states shred their data before turning it over (like what happened in Georgia a few years back over one of the state races. It's a cyclical issue. You can't look at the data if you don't have the evidence to warrant looking at it, and you can't get the evidence if you can't look at the data.

But no....the anomalies aren't made up. You just haven't been paying attention to what's been going on with it, and that's okay, it's a lot to keep up with.

I mean that's the issue, that's also why this case that's going on is so huge. There's so many statistical anomalies that it's nearly impossible that he won every battleground state.....but there's been no smoking gun. There's never been solid enough evidence to warrant a court case. Hopefully we get the 'hard receipts' your looking for in this court case

Yeah...

That's a good one. I actually like that one.

I tried playing it while unemployed. Did not click with me. At all. I just don't get it.

The thing that worries me....is he's probably doing this to other people. I almost feel that you were maybe his foray into this type of behavior, and as he does it more and gets more confident with it, I worry he may eventually hurt or take advantage of someone (i.e. ask for explicit content, or ask to meet up, etc.)

I know that guy. He's a fucking troll. I don't know how he got to be the mod of that community. Seriously.

I heard that there was supposed to be a massive cliffhanger at the end of this season. For this very reason, I still haven't finished the last three episodes.

I mean, according to the history of how conservative news has worked, you constantly need an 'enemy' to be afraid. It's the reason we're attacking their rights, not yours, it's the reason that we're enacting laws to target this specific ethnicityn not yours, etc.

Modern conservativism only works if your supporters are fearful of the 'other'. It used to be "orientals" and the Red Scare back in the mid-1900's. Then the blacks, the 'marihuana', and communism in the 60's and 70's. In the 80's, it was the welfare queens, the moral panic, and AIDS. In the 90's, it was child predators, gays, and the start of many identity politics. Then it was Middle Easterners and Islam in the 2000's. Now it's the Great White Replacement and the immigrant populations. See? The pattern is that you always have to have some target for fear. They don't stick around long before people realize that what they were fearful of isn't as bad as people said they were or that it was never a risk on the first place. It's all just a massive distraction to keep people from targeting the real problem. The ruling class, and they're ability to manipulate our laws, elections, and lives all for their benefit.

In the 1980s, conservatism leaned heavily on fear of the communist threat, the 'welfare queen', and a moral panic over crime, AIDS, and the erosion of traditional family values. By the 1990s, the new 'others' were undocumented immigrants, queer Americans, and the imagined tyranny of political correctness and globalist elites. The conservative movement has often relied on stoking existential dread—whether it’s the red menace, the crack epidemic, or creeping secularism—to unify its base through fear rather than hope.

100% this. There's been resistance everywhere over this. Minnesota drove out a bunch of ICE agents from their neighborhoods, there's been major protests all over the US about it. Like... we're for sure doing it.

Wanted to ask about this. I do not work in California, however many of our vendors and customers are seeking to swap to MIL-PRF-8625 Type II, when they historically used Type I.

I'm totally on board with this - anything I can do to push safer, less environmentally destructive processes is a win in my book. But I understand that not all companies are interested in jumping ship so fast.

So I wanted to ask, what's your companies take on it? Did you know about the industry phase out?

The US Space Force is tracking 20 pieces of debris from the Intelsat 33e.

 

I've been dealing with this for months. I've received yet another drawing from a company calling "Diameters on a common axis/center to be 0.XX" TIR U.O.I. "

Total Runout requires a Datum. Your "common axis" is not a datum and can not referenced. It's driving me mad. Like, where did everyone get this notion that it's acceptable? It'd be one thing if it was just one or two drawings, but I'm into the dozens at this point. It's getting to the point that I'm starting to question if I'm either the one in the wrong or everyone has some sort of mass psychosis.

Am I in the wrong here?

 

Scientists and engineers have successfully tested a high-powered laser weapon mounted on a British Army combat vehicle.

According to the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl) and the Ministry of Defence (MOD), this trial marks the first instance of such a weapon being fired from a UK land vehicle.
