US "nominal" president was out to watch a UFC match. If real boss is going to micromanage how to avoid peace, then UFC promotion is as productive as minion can be.

It's all about whether Binance lets them cash out or not, but mixing within BRICS is sure to make it clean enough, as Binance getting/keeping sovereign clients is good for Binance, and not worth appeasing US BS to turn it away.

Preferred crypto payment is USDT (Thether) stable coin. Which is the least US regulated, and most popular, US $ equivalent/backed stable coin. They are unlikely to refuse bitcoin, though.

She absolutely did not have sexual relations with these people... uhm mr Epstein, and ms Maxwell, or any of their ephebe escorts, nor passed them along to friends and acquaintances.

Does world of warships have drones?

The major, gigantic, impact on your life relies on the fact that these were military expert officers who warned that escalation or ground troops in Iran would be a major disaster. A disaster, where even/especially if you are outside of US will cause extreme cost of living increases with lower quality, at best, assuming you are not ones who will starve, or simply have 0 fuel and ultra low food production. Ground troops as an example, means a very long war that could cancel US midterms. Where global shortages are extreme and last too long. $400/bbl oil and $15/gallon US gasoline with double the price elsewhere in the world are the future under such action. Where political wing of Pentagon already needs an excuse to cancel mid terms, incredible global/little americans suffering is the consequence.

Needs a blanket fort from head to screen.

US spends more on government healthcare than Canada ($9195/capita vs $5000), which has universal healthcare for all. As % of GDP, for total healthcare, US is 17%, Canada is 12%

All of the ID verification, posing as age verification, legislation is for better thought monitoring of social credit too.

Specifically, they have had a popular expensive DBMS for last 30ish years.

whatever the F, brad pitt was talking in the proper fucked movie.

All of the (pre-election) Trump supporters I know also hate the US and want it destroyed. They’ve only changed their mind on being Trump supporters.

Amazing how governments opposed to MAGA/US fascism, ensure the tools for fascism. I will choose “illegal” phone, computer, 3d printer.

This is an extremely promising innovation, and company plans on bigger designs already. But the total cost has to include an automated roof opening shelter for storms, that can open and close in medium winds before the high winds come. This makes the ground footprint higher than traditional turbines, even if agriculture can be done when there is no storm and roof is open. Perhaps 4 thethering strong cables could permit it to survive a cat 1 hurricane when hugging ground without a roof, but it is more weight to lift normally.

An interesting question is which of these 2 numbers is most important. The PPP income measurements could be flawed if the poorest half of Chinese have been able to accumulate double the wealth as poorest half of Americans. Even if “attitudes towards savings” are different/a factor, being able to survive while hoping for the upward mobility that savings/wealth provides is more likely than not, a sign that poorer half of Chinese are better off than poorer half of Americans, despite the standard measures of PPP income.

Thank you for correction and other links. China with over 4x the population, has higher PPP GDP, but I misspoke about per capita GDP.

Interesting graphs. China does have a lot of very poor provinces, even if high number out of official poverty levels. PPP income per capita is much higher in China than US and growing significantly.

whatever price problem there is with some kinds of parts, it will be the same whether they’re sold as lose parts or as part of a device. didn’t actually read the article, but the Micron/Crucial announcement was about leaving the DIY direct market, as opposed to not keeping supply deals with OEMs. Though new contracts with them will be higher.

it becomes too big to fail because 80% of the workforce is tied up in it In 2008, banking sector and auto industry needed bailouts for the investor/financial class. Certainly, there was no need to layoff core banking employees, if government support was the last resort to keep the doors open AND gain controlling stake over future banking profitablity in a hopefully sustainable (low risk in addition to low climate/global destruction) fashion. The auto bailout did have harsher terms than the banking bailout, and recessions definitely harm the sector, but the bailouts were definitely focused on the executives/shareholders who have access to political friendships that result in gifts instead of truly needed lifelines, or wider redistribution of benefits from sustainable business. The point, is that workforce is a “talking point” with no actual relevance in bailouts/too big to fail. That entire stock market wealth is concentrated in the sector, and that we have to all give them the rest of our money (and militarist backed surveillance freedom) or “China will win” at the only sector we pretend to have a competitive chance in, is why our establishment needs another “too big to fail moment”. We’ve started QE ahead of the crash this time. Work force is relatively small in AI sector. Big construction, but relatively low operations employment. It displaces other hiring too.

The question is whether government/people should get $60/barrel revenue before expenses, maybe $40/barrel after expenses, or $10/barrel but pump 5-10x as much, bribed to be loyal to US. Long term, obviously no corruption and high revenue/profit per barrel has its advantages. It’s not as though Exxon/Chevron can’t get access to Venezuela oil with fair deals, it’s that pretending corrupt puppets are the legitimate leaders provides extortion oil costs. When you understand the hoops the US government is willing to jump through to get cheap foreign oil, you should understand that similar policies are used to deprive Americans of their fair share of resource revenue.

It’s genuinely bad, even if entire universe isn’t affected. Shows sloppiness. Headline is too kind for implying this could be “some kind of design upgrade”, instead of FUBAR.

I don’t believe this, because it is too stupid. 2026 demand forecasts for HBM I don’t believe will materialize, as customers can’t pay those crazy RAM prices either, OpenAI can’t pay for all of their promises, demand isn’t high enough for the planned data centers, and power and labour constraints. I don’t believe it because Micron is a brand that has value premium to it. Even if they just keep charging extortionist prices while HBM demand fantasy remains propagandized, there will eventually be worthwhile consumer demand for RAM, right? Killing the division and firing everyone in it, is Micron saying “making too much money from HBM must forever put all eggs in HBM basket”
