Wow! Truly our generous lord, supply side Jesus, is amazing. Not only were building these military vehicles the best use of resources 20 years ago when no one was asking for them, but they actually save us money and it’s even good for the environment to ship them across the world in the present day. What an amazing and perfect world the MIC has created for us.

Where is the animosity? Hexbear is fine.

Where are the hexbear people with their image macro’s. I need the one of Netanyahu with the cartoonish bomb.

Ah found it. This is from like 2004 or something. e: apparently 2012 67th United Nations General Assembly meeting Sept. 27, 2012

Sounds like the perfect evolution of pointers then.

I “understood” on a basic level what pointers were when i was first learning programing as a 12-13year old. But I never understood HOW to use them, or manipulate them, or what functions you use to interact with them, or how to examine them, or how to declare them, etc etc. And since I was young I never got the opportunity to take an actual programming class that taught any of that throughout high school. By the time I got to college I went with Electrical Engineering instead of computer science and so my journey with pointers ended.

Now I do python and never have to think about pointers.

Yea lack of glasses probably a different reporter. But the fact that it is a different reporter shows that CNN could have accommodated the Iranian Presidents demands if they wanted to, then the fact that they accommodated the al qaeda guy shows it was never about the head scarf or Islam or anything like that.

So I think by reading the comments I understand the context here.

A CNN reporter, Amanpour, was going to interview the Iranian President. The president demanded the female wear a head scarf. The CNN reporter declined because she is a strong independent woman or something, so the Iranian president didn’t show up. This same reporter then interviewed a former member of ISIS/Al Qaeda, and now suddenly she is wearing a headscarf. However for some reason interviewing this Al Qaeda member while wearing a headscarf is more important then whatever principles she supposedly has?

The implication is that she had no intention of conducting a good faith interview of the Iranian President at all. Is this correct?

If it’s not him it seems it would be trivial to prove that, but if any of the information provided to us by law enforcement is true (yea I know big if, but why would a random cop in pennsylvania lie about finding the suspect?) then it’s certainly him.

Agreed, but he could have gotten away with it! His trail was cold, the police had nothing. He could have ditched all the evidence and just gone home, sigh.

A better way to do that would be to take some pictures with his phone of the dead CEO before taking off on his bike, and then posting them as verification photos on a 4chan thread or something. But yea this is all just speculation. It’s just odd.

Why bother getting away from the scene at all then?

I don’t understand how this guy planned the assassination, the escape from NYC and then 3days later he sitll has all the evidence linking him to the crime on his person, and he is still on a Greyhound bus instead of chilling at home, or camping in the woods or something, anything else.

There never was international law and I doubt there will be as long as independent nation-states exist. The ICC was created to give legitimacy to US Actions and as a propaganda opportunity by trying in the court the losers of WW2. It was never meant to actually uphold fairness or justice.

Bush 1 administration, Clinton, Bush 2, Obama. It would be around 500-1000 people but of course the entire US Military would fight against it and end the world if it came to it. If a sympathetic US President decided to assist though, a new golden age would dawn.

In the theoretical sense, you are right. But the big question is how do you give aid to those that need it in a country that is run by people who treat women as cattle.

I guess I wasn’t expecting an advocate for team america world police on lemmy, wild.

It seems like giving money to religious fundamentalists who treat women like cattle is probably not the best use of international aid.

On here I’d 100% agree, though if some member here got into some kind of discord drama that you weren’t apart of, why would you choose a side? You’ll have incomplete information, and no doubt one of them will claim they were harassed while leaving out some important details.

the sane response is to go “wow that is awful. the gaming community does indeed contain some terrible people, i am glad to be one of the good ones and will distance myself from this behavior”

I’d say the saner response is none at all. This seems like a pretty niche community issue somewhere on the internet involving at most <100 people. I doubt anyone here is closer then 3 degrees of separation from anyone involved. Why would you expect any of the outsiders here to “take a stand,” based on incomplete information?

If base load isn’t required, where are these grid level storage facilities? Last I checked there were <100 and they are handle a fraction of a percent of the US grid load.

How many does china have? They have a much larger solar/Wind installation then the US so surely they should have hundreds of thousands, and yet?

In ths US as of 2022, 66% of natural gas facilities are for Base Load generation, something that you claim isn’t needed. Maybe you should let the engineers and grid planners know? https://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.php?id=61444

Can you provide a link showing the huge amount ofenergy storage that has been built alongside wind and solar? Surely such a huge undertaking would have at least a wikipedia page about it? Maybe a graph showing the increase in storage capacity over time? Afterall, base load isn’t needed anymore, this seems like a huge development in the past 10years! I’d love to learn about the inflection point where base load was no longer required.
