When all the other time travelers are busy killing Hitler, Iβm gonna take out Laura Ingalls Wilder.
Ah yes, the early 20th century when the National Grange saw a huge resurgence in membership because farmers were having such a fine time and not because of a need to organize.
Her trip to Ireland was ruined by this one question?? Gee, I wonder whyβ¦
Well, this is totally a thing that could not have been forseen nor could it be the consequence of what Labour has done as the ruling party
I like how my guy here thinks they're dropping special bombs that only hit straight Iranians
No, no, but this is important.
me: you think somewhere there's a taxidermist who uses a stuffed pig as a piggy bank?
wife: we don't actually have to talk about every thought you have
βI have usernames older than you.β.
Holy shit
This is what an elected official should look like, @crockett.house.gov thank you for your grace, passion and commitment to America. You are a class act.
This is supposed to be prevented by both technology (IFF systems) and coordination with allies. IFF codes rotate daily (more coordination required). Perhaps Hegseth & Trump's purges of "woke & DEI" officers hurt our ability to successfully coordinate with other countries on a timely basis?
So the F-15 is the most successful combat aircraft in modern history. 104 air combat engagements with enemy aircraft. 104 victories. Zero losses. A perfect record.
Only 6 F-15s have been lost to ground based fire in all history. 3 of those 6 were friendly fire under this Operation Epstein Fury.π€‘
Shout out to the clueless people that will read this thread, understand none of it, and think

Maybe his fishing is mostly littoral
Not before you talk, friendo.
Solidarity is key.
I don't want or need a president that silences the conversations that protect people that aren't "culturally normal.π€‘"
That's how fascists chip away at the base of good people.

There's Dreamer, drama, and bad decisions, which means it's already great. But the highlight for me is Black Alice, who @nicoleamaines.bsky.social captures in a way that, imo, no one else but her creator (Gail Simone) has.
Meta is putting a "Name Tag" feature in Ray-Bans - facial recognition through the glasses' camera. You look at someone, AI tells you who they are.
In an internal document, the company wrote that the timing is good because civil society groups are busy with politics and won't cause problems.
Yep, the Mennonites are rising up. They took over the Target for an anti-ICE hymn sing to shame Target for their cooperation. augustafreepress.com/news/harriso...
AI destroying entry level jobs in disciplines with an extended progression from basic competence to mastery feels like eating our seed corn
I do not fear the rise of superintelligence.
I do, however, fear the rise of billionaires, organizations, and world powers who seek to use computing to maximize their power, influence, and control.
