I really do get the reaction to unrestricted submarine warfare now. People really do find all sub warfare distasteful at a basic level and seemingly can't help but justify their distaste with imaginery laws and constraints. The fleet review had been over for a week. Its a valid target.

This and the takes spawning from it seem to come from a space of wishcasting. I'm not saying its impossible that the gulf coalition is breaking or the us is utterly out of interceptors. Its just it feels a bit premature, and we should really know better to holdon to our takes for at least 72 hours

All the fun of a forum raid stripped out and made boring everyday reality just makes everyone an asshole. Forum raids were fun because they were brief and exciting.

The best dems rn always seem to be youth movement ones even if their baseline politics are wack. You need to do something and believe in something. And I'm tired of regean revolution survivors pissing their pants every 5 fucking minutes.

Platner is simply the clearest representation that the average dem voter yearns for something other than scolding grey skinned do nothings. Now the alternatives can become less popular e.g. (sinema, fetterman). But I know I'm tired of old dems getting participation nominations for doing nothing.

Genuinely a unified US, Can, Mex superstate would bring about unheraldly prosperity and peace to ourselves and the globe. We share more in common than we have differences. Trump has poisoned it for another generation. Though I think a US/Mex partnership is closer than we think.

This is true, but it misses real lede. The problem isnt that the US can assimilate anyone into identity ownership nigh instantly, the problem is right now that identity is yoked to garbage. If you can just tweak the baseline knee jerk identity, you instantly create the conditions for 1kyae.

Really its just a question of what capabilities you can outsource and live without and which ones need to be inhoused at a premium. You can't inhouse everything, but outsourcing everything is a bad idea as well.

Canada has the problem of being 30 million strong while having to support a continent spanning country and keep industrial jobs local. Its either have local players get swept away by vast US captial or have rules that create local cartels to keep capacity inhoused. Damned if you do and if you dont

It really is just a sick joke decided to torture knowers. 500 billion dollars could be the seed capital to restart all sorts of atrophied defense production in the US and instead these guys will waste all of it in its totality. Nevermind its increase on the deficit. US financed are going to be bad.

The only thing that prevents these things from driving me made is that I never know the denominator. Knowing 1-10 people is socially toxic is much worse than 1-100. You just have to put aside that freaks will always be created by the random walk of life.

You can see his drop in production after covid he's basically batted a minor league level of new isms and bangers. Dawg has fallen off and is now coasting on former glory. There hasn't been a good trumpism since 2022 probably.

I know a lot of folks love TLJ, and I wish I did, but I think it made this problem worse - "the entire first order chases the entire resistance" simply does not match the scale of star wars, and it's deeply jarring
they had one last chance to rectify this with RoS, and it could not have gone worse

To be honest the US navy isnt even the force that will tip the scales of a conflict one way or another, the difference maker is if the air force can clear the skies enough for 1-2 b1 lancers firing off a full load of lrsam's off into the troop/amphib fleet and thats ball game.

I will note that the major difference is that one is a service and one is very much a product. For all intents it is consumerism driving it, though the financial manipulations driving this price hike are stupider and more anti-social than the burrito taxi subsidies.

Interesting and good luck to them. They won't get all they want but even a moratorium at least until ICE has mostly fucked off is probably a good thing. To my mind if these orgs want to build moment they have to make all their actions about countering ICE for at least the next year.

If anything this probably just means dems need to refuse to acknowledge all the good stuff for Trans people they do, continue to do good stuff, and bring the righteous hammer of regs and the law down on the wormtounge bastards that have spread their corruption.

I know business is a much better customer than consoomers, but like guys you know business spend does dry up? The big question is if the chinese manufacturers will be the new partners of choice for integrators and all the western suppliers get fucked royally when business capex dries up

Until we can start really pushing into wackier stuff like spiked networks, astrocyte interactions, recursive networks, at scale I don't think we be able to push into nonfuzzy domains. Though I wonder if we can ever integrate hard logic systems into the networks directly, that could be a game changer
