The word communism has less to do with the original meaning than teachings of prosperity gospel church with the bible.
Russians have very different meaning for this word because of decades of Soviet indoctrination, Americans think completely different thing entirely about what it is.
However, there is a thing that is true for all of them: they don’t just believe that their version is the only one correct, they cannot fathom the reality where different definition even exists

You just said something about something bad US did, but I didn’t see anything in your comment about all the other atrocities that all the other counties commited.
Inconsistent hypocrite much?

hydro

Quickly boiling weird water then

Somehow, Snoke is just fine

Somehow, Snoke returned…

The justification is that they’re supposed to smell explosives (and they fail at that with an incredible rate anyways), but they’re used to harass non-white people. Security theater doesn’t actually help with security.

America against something.
The possibility of Trump launching military operation against Mexico, Canada, Denmark, China, or whatever his dying brain will come up with next is small, but not zero.
I don’t know what will happen if Trump will annex Greenland. I don’t know what will happen if he nukes Mexico. I don’t know what will happen if he puts military ships in China water to intimidate them into giving him money. But I can’t rule out this and many more idiotic actions of his.

What an inspiration to us all

Yeah, but the thing is, I’m not really afraid about anyone else. If someone steals my laptop or finds it or whatever, I don’t really care about what they do with my docker cache. And I’m not a target of any particular hacker group. I just feel dirty when corpos train their LLM on my data to sell me useless shit back, so that’s kind of the only thing that I would like to avoid.

I don’t know, I don’t see a lot of damage or unpleasantness stemming from someone getting into my /tmp, but I don’t want any llm being fed contents of my /home. I am less afraid of an attack, as I am irked by corpos putting fingers into my shit

Just encrypt your home then.

By being a monopoly and having a unique chokehold on the internet. Even if we don’t get into their ties with various governments that they inevitably have to have, the fact that they alone can cripple the internet is concerning

“Linked to” means “might cause in some cases”. If it’s “linked” then it should be at least correlated. The disconnect between the two shows that it isn’t.

If there is a bump in cases of autism post-Tylenol, then it might be a cause, if there isn’t, it can’t be. That’s the reason for the timeline argument, that’s what it proves.

If you focus on nicotine specifically, nicotine causes specific type of cancer. Change in the delivery mechanism would cause fluctuations in dosage, but it doesn’t matter in this case (we ignore other types of cancer not to bog down the analogy).
If one would argue that Tylenol causes autism, two things should be shown, the delivery mechanism of Tylenol before it was invented/isolated, to explain pre-Tylenol cases of autism, and/or specific uptick in autism when it was started to be used as medication.
It’s possible that the meme is good you just didn’t get it.

That’s because cancer is a category of diseases, not a single one. Specific types of cancer that are caused by smoking are caused by smoking (there is afaik 12 of those, and some are associated with prolonged inhalation of any smoke, and some are only tabaco-related, but it doesn’t matter)

SCP-9000 looking mfers

Here’s hoping there will be more similarities between the two

Well, you know how you get a pack of very good cookies, and think you only going to eat like two or three, but somehow you eat the whole pack anyway? Well, it’s like that but with mega yachts. A pack of good cookies is bigger part of my overall budget than a good yacht is a part of Gaben’s this month’s income. Why wouldn’t he get five. And besides, not all of his yachts are super yachts apparently, so it’s all good and chill and cool.
Yeah, apparently we do give him a pass because steam is less shitty than it could be. Well, and also because he’s not doing anything terrible that we know of, and in this economy I would take non pedo billionaire over all the rest.

According to quick google, he only has 4 ships in his fleet (with fifth being built right now), and 5 ships is a very small amount for any respectable admiral.
