And racists were posting bile against the Indian/Sri Lankan crew on the ship.

You'll notice they disappeared pretty quickly when it was revealed pilots from the harbor were at the helm... ah, such is the life of a racist. Quickly running from one manufactured outrage to another... don't let facts get in the way of a good rage session.

You might be dying in an under-served ER controlled by shady commercial interests, but it should make you proud that as an American you aren't suffering through the horrible nightmares of socialized medicine. This is probably one of the most patriotic ways to die.

Feeling inspired, I set out to push the limits of recursive emulation myself. My first step was getting a Linux emulator running inside Minecraft. Yes, you heard me right - Linux running inside Minecraft. Once I had achieved that, the natural progression was to install Yuzu on this virtual version of Linux. It took some trial and error, but eventually, I managed to do just that.

At this point, I could hardly contain my excitement. The results were impressive; the performance increase was noticeable compared to previous iterations. But for me, that wasn't enough. I wanted more. So, in true recursion fashion, I installed another Linux emulator within this Minecraft-embedded Yuzu environment. This new iteration had its own Yuzu setup, and thus the cycle continued.

As layers upon layers of nested Linux environments grew, the performance kept improving exponentially. Every time I upgraded the recursion level, the FPS went through the roof. Eventually, it reached unbelievable heights. Today, with multiple levels of recursion, I am proud to announce that the performance of this nestled setup is now over 9000 FPS!

He stumbled upon tianeptine by chance when he popped into a gas station in search of medication to relieve his migraine, according to his mom. The gas station didn’t have Excedrin, but an employee there offered Morrison a bottle of pills called Tianaa, a popular brand of tianeptine.

So Morrison took it like Tylenol, popping a couple at a time over the next few hours.

Just three of the 15 tianeptine pills in the bottle remained, Terry said.

Hmmm... seems a bit fishy. Who takes 12 Tylenol that quickly? I think the REAL story is this kid wanted to get ripped, had probably bought this crap before and took a megadose after feeling a buzz.

Popping 12 of anything you get from a gas station is probably a bad idea.

Articles like this strain the credibility of MSNBC with clickbait headlines. This comes from a conversation regarding cheap imports causing a "ECONOMIC bloodbath" in the automotive industry.

I have NO love for Trump, but for the love of God, save your outrage for something else he's going to do other than lament the state of the auto industry.

A more honest headline would be "Trump discusses ECONOMIC bloodbath" "Troubles ahead for American autoworkers says Trump", etc. but of course MSNBC is filled with hacky journalists so they go for maximum outrage, knowing full well that most people only read the headline and that's it.

Who had trust in the first place?

To anyone struggling in the USA and wondering how to possibly get out, just live like Congress and become rich. Then, money problems are way easier to handle. If you have as much money as a Congressman, you will be equally as unconcerned with them as to the state of our union and you will be able to say things are great with a straight face.

This is a Jewish Israeli extremist.

... who teaches at a yeshiva that gets its funding from the Israeli government.... guess he's not so extreme he can't get government funding. Embarrassing. Even in the relatively thoughtless USA we would cancel that sponsorship in a second.

In an unexpected turn of events, President Donald J. Trump has compared his financial situation with that of famed physicist Erwin Schrödinger's iconic thought experiment, Schrödinger's Cat. The comparison sheds light on a peculiar aspect of Trump's personal wealth: sometimes it exists, and other times it doesn't – all depending on what serves his best interests at the time.

Trump's recent explanation revolves around the concept of superposition, which postulates that two mutually exclusive situations can coexist simultaneously until they are observed or measured. In this analogy, Trump's wallet is both filled with $500 million in cold hard cash and completely empty. It only becomes one or the other when necessary.

"People don’t understand the complexity of my financial situation," said President Trump during the interview. "The world sees me as a multi-billionaire, and while that may be true, there's more to it than meets the eye." He then went on to explain how this complex financial state applies to his recent legal troubles.

As a vivid example, Trump mentioned a fine imposed on him by a New York State judge for failing to comply with the terms of a 2013 settlement regarding his now-defunct Trump University. Despite claiming to have half a billion dollars readily available, Trump argues that this fortune mysteriously evaporates whenever it comes time to pay off his debts.

This intriguing theory has left many scratching their heads. However, some experts believe that Trump's wealth is indeed entangled with his fines; they exist together in an unstable state, where paying his dues would inevitably collapse the system and reveal the true nature of his bank account.

  • Is Donald Trump secretly a cyborg with malfunctioning speech synthesis software?
  • Could he have accidentally taken Valium instead of his daily multivitamins?
  • Did someone place a curse on him using an ancient Mayan spell for turning people into slow-talking zombies?
  • Was he subjected to some top-secret government mind control experiment gone wrong?
  • Has he been possessed by the ghost of James Earl Jones?
  • Did aliens kidnap him, replaced him with a clone whose vocal chords were damaged during birth?
  • Did he take part in a hypnotherapy session to become a more relaxed version of himself?
  • Does he have a severe case of sleep apnea only exhibited when speaking in public?
  • Was he attempting to record a hilarious hidden track for his next presidential album?
  • Were his vocal cords affected by a mishap while eating spicy food before the event?
  • Is there a chance he's suffering from a neurological disorder such as Parkinson's Disease?
  • Is it possible he's now fluent in Klingon and we're all misinterpreting his guttural growls?
  • Could it be that he has a rare form of laryngitis caused by shouting too loudly over the years?
  • Or perhaps, he's being remotely controlled by a puppet master through voice commands?

zzzz Wake me up when they actually do something

This is so cheap. They want the credit for fixing something without the effort of getting it done

No it doesn't, because the same people complaining about Biden are usually masters of doublethink anyway.

  • Managed to delay starting work for weeks due to Speaker votes impasse
  • Held numerous hearings investigating Biden's son and the origins of COVID-19, resulting in no substantial findings
  • Ensured that an $858 billion defense spending bill passed, but it was mostly a continuation of previous policies
  • Brought forth a bill proposing cutting federal food stamp benefits by approximately $13 billion over ten years
  • Passed a resolution condemning Antifa and Critical Race Theory, without any legislative actions following through
  • Held multiple congressional meetings on the dangers of TikTok and Big Tech while doing little about them
  • Introduced and passed a bill prohibiting federal funding for gender-affirming care for transgender minors, which President Biden ultimately vetoed
  • Pushed for a national sales tax to replace income taxes but failed to gain support
  • Proposed a bill to ban earmarks but later reversed their decision after facing backlash from within the party
  • Made headlines with a proposal to cut off federal funds for schools teaching "divisive concepts," but the bill died in committee.

Yeah but I heard my cousin's friend had only one and instantly got autism.

Holy fuck, that opening picture, a 6 year old just completed an operation to remove her eyeball damaged by shrapnel. That 1000 yard stare doesn't belong on a 60 year old, never mind a 6 year old. Fuck war.

They will also be fighting with:

  • Toothpicks
  • Plastic straws
  • Cotton balls
  • Rubber bands
  • Feather boas
  • Marbles
  • Jump ropes
  • Paper clips
  • Marshmallows
  • Bubbles

Most people are full of shit. Where are they going to go? Getting citizenship in another country isn't easy. "I'll leave the country if Bush gets elected" was a thing back in the day. Guess how many people actually left? It wasn't the majority...

This is going to make Republicans seethe and will remind them of the mail-in ballots. I'm sure there will be talk of fakery, no matter who collected the data.

Trump ahead: of course! Biden ahead: FAKE NEWS

Before starting a war, ask yourself what victory would look like. It appears here that the goal is wiping Gaza entirely and anything short of that will be construed as a loss.

Why do people care so much that it’s an app? If it was not an app would everyone have been buying it in droves?

At least part of this is due to a direct quote from the CEO mentioning how they need a VERY bespoke Android version for it to run, which is clearly bullshit because you can run the APK on other devices other than the Rabbit R1 hardware.

Since Rabbit was at least partially funded by the "Cyber Manufacture Co" rug-pull and they suffered NO penalty the CEO has taken this as a sign the market will tolerate his scams. You should view the Rabbit R1 through the lens of it being a former "web3" company and I'm sure the shady legacy remains inside that company.

Since Rabbit sells at $199 and then NO monthly charge, there is basically no viable funding model for this company. Every single request you send the Rabbit costs them money. So, it's only a matter of time before the R1 itself is "rugged", whether that's suddenly requiring a monthly fee OR just shutting down entirely.

My guess would be, like the Humane Pin, they wanted to do a monthly fee, but if they did the R1 would sell even worse (since it's basically entirely broken out of the box). If these guys make it 3 years I'll be surprised. And, since the R1 does nothing locally, it turns into a nice paperweight when these guys eventually pull THIS rug.

In a bizarre turn of events, it seems the reclusive nation of North Korea has finally succumbed to the intense chip envy brought on by China's recent announcement of its approved CPU list. In an effort to keep pace with neighboring rivals, Kim Jong-un ordered the immediate development of a state-of-the-art microchip. And thus, 'The Juche Chip' was born - named after North Korea's philosophy of self-reliance.

After months of hard work, North Korean engineers presented their masterpiece: a CPU so advanced, it can run MS-DOS smoothly on Windows ME. This revolutionary breakthrough in computing technology also boasts an impressive clock speed that's roughly equivalent to the rate at which time moves inside a Pyongyang prison cell. With the Juche Chip, users will never have to worry about lagging, overheating or any other technical issues because their system will freeze before such problems could even arise.

Depending on scale. Is the surface of the lake flat?

Once you experience true level you will never go back.

I’ve never had sympathy for this line of thinking. Is the average person truly too ignorant to understand that science is a constantly developing process of better understanding our universe, not some set of unimpeachable rules carved into stone tablets once and forever?

YES because often times the opposing model is the Bible, which is updated very irregularly and people will form sects over a single differing interpretation of a single passage.

Changing your mind / learning new information can be construed as the super-hated "flip-flop".

Unfortunately, the illogical are immune to logic. No amount of it will be effective.

Good thing we only post on social media instead of actually do anything to improve the situation

In one instance, according to court documents, she told a Black superior that she was “afraid” to talk with him. In another, she told a manager that their conversation was “chastising.” And in a meeting, she repeated a satirical phrase likening her bosses’ behavior to suffering “beatings.”

These coded racist micro-aggressive verbal assaults must be stopped at all costs. ACLU should ban staff from speaking at all times. All communication will happen via a laminated sheet of 12 carefully vetted non-offensive emoji. Should staff want to communicate, they can point at the most appropriate emoji while gesturing to the other party.

They are at 1.5% of the population of Gaza and daily death tolls have fallen month after month. If that’s the goal shouldn’t the killing apparatus become more effective and not 20% less so each month?

I'm sorry not enough people are getting killed efficiently enough for you. What do you think 'Total Victory' means for Israel here?

Congress members don’t make enough to be rich without taking bribes.

That's why so many of them take bribes :)

I want my data to be centralized, profiled and used against me, but I want it by American corporations, dammit!

Even “Why don’t you open an issue on our source tracker” will often effectively shut down suggestions from less tech savvy newcomers.

How should developers handle feature requests? Keep in mind there is a need for the whole team to see the suggestion and it's also good to have a place to gather feedback and further discuss.

If you didn't invent HTTP you shouldn't be posting on the Internet.

bro we should meet up

I would like to see a list of the medications Trump takes daily. Rumor has it that prescription (and non-prescription) medication flowed freely in his White House. What is the saying? People who smoke glass shouldn't throw stones?

Clearly, my dear learned friend, you are an undeniable polymath - for not only do you possess the knowledge of a single day's duration, but also the power to discern its nuanced usage in everyday speech. Your intellect soars beyond the stratosphere where mere mortals can barely comprehend the concept of time. However, your thirst for wisdom should compel you to explore further: once you understand the intricacies of "new day", you may delve into the complexities of time itself. Did you know a standard clock hour differs from a solar hour? Or how about sidereal time, which deviates even more? You see, only the truest of geniuses understand that what we call a day isn't fixed or universal; it varies based on one's perspective. Keep seeking, my wise friend, because there's always more to discover.

Would they be in violation of the act if they did not offer these alternatives at all?

Easy, when they go to sell spots to advertisers: "Look, our video had 15,000 views last week" (except all of them were unwanted)
