Yeah our UKIP is called One Nation in Australia and they have never gotten enough of the vote to wield any significant power.

What kind of emissions are we producing to build the ships?

Uh, the last time we heard this it was the Russians in Ukraine and the ICC finds those claims credible enough to investigate.

Obsidian seem to be doing better than before they were acquired too

“Hey Israel called and they asked about when we’re going to delete all the posts celebrating dead Israelis? Sorry Linda are you still there? You’ve gone silent. Linda???”

Only 2 people were killed in Arrival, I don’t want to get all Stalin but is that a huge number?

Wait, there’s a University for Rice?

Why does Mr. Vader not just simply login to the droids to find the rebels?

It wouldn’t have gotten nearly as much visibility if gamers didn’t know who the dude was

Which is what a malevolent AI capable of mass misinformation operations would say

The problem is we’re not treating it like an emergency.

During COVID world governments provided basically infinite resources to promising vaccine candidates. We developed brand new types of vaccines for a novel virus in a third of the time it takes us to make existing vaccines for well known viruses. We are not doing the same for promising battery technologies.

We could also be regulating the market for smarter use of the lithium we have. Lithium batteries for stationary mass storage (“big batteries”) are completely pointless, except maybe as part of virtual power networks. Subsidising and incentivising recycling and recovery of lithium from waste is another low hanging fruit we seem to not be bothering with.

Absolutely it’s true for a global emergency threatening to destroy the global ecosystem, a local ecosystem and cultural site is a sensible sacrifice (not withstanding that we shouldn’t be in this scenario in the first place.)

But we have barely scratched the surface in terms of alternative options and it’s fair to be frustrated when you’re the one expected to sacrifice when other options have not really been tried.

You said it facetiously but in reality COVID really did kill almost 50% more conservatives than liberals.

Conservative governments around the world made the connection that a virus that mostly killed old people was going to be bad news for their polling if left uncontrolled. Only in the US did conservatives seem to do not only the exact opposite, but added anti-mask, anti-lockdown and anti-vaccination on top - as if they were trying to get their voters killed.

Biden beat Trump by 10,000 votes in Georgia. Thanks antivaxxers!

Gamers don’t know who he is so probably better

It’s one app

Starlink are already doing this apparently, not sure how well it went

Jokes on you I use Plex to consume all my content

Don’t foldables use OLED?

The problem is, and this happens a lot in science, often it takes so long for scientists to be vindicated they die poor and in disrepute. If the pandemic had never happened she may have gone the same way.

Why are they making all these spinoffs of DRG? Is it really that popular?
