    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    Just goes to show he doesn't understand crime at all. Deputizing a bunch of vigilantes to fight crime won't solve anything, just get a bunch of innocent people hurt. Crimes would start back up immediately after the window ends. He also lumps in anyone who criticizes him as a criminal, which...

    He also wasn't shot at the golf course, the only shots fired were by the secret service.

    Harris-Walz / Dems

    I tend to agree that we shouldn't care how long dead people think things should be run in today's society, but understanding what their thoughts on the matters of their day were can help us understand the past, and understanding the past is one of the best ways to understand why things are the...

    Conspiracy lunatic thread - people who believe in absurd nonsense are dangerous

    Wouldn't be surprised if Elon buys it, but really I can see any wealthy extreme-right person looking for a propaganda platform to own to take a stab at buying it.

    AI don't trust techbros

    Procedural generation IS used in movies, and has been for a long time. Pixar developed a procedural hair system for Brave. The waves in Titanic, proceduraly generated by a set of rules. Only difference now is that they are moving the algorithms from the super-tedious things to the standard...

    Heck, Carson wasn't even the first host of the series, he was the third. Was the longest running host, though. 30 years is quite a run.

    Harris-Walz / Dems

    I cringe any time people act like the founding fathers were all on the same page. Frankly, the fact that the Constitution was ratified at all is remarkable. Their views on states rights, slavery, the economy etc. all varied greatly.

    Israeli-Palestinian Conflict

    Look, Ideally none of the attacks should have occurred, but if they ARE going to occur this sort of attack isn't nearly as bad as randomly firing rockets indiscriminately or using high yield explosives(much bigger blast radius that what we've seen here) to take out one person. It's a tragedy...

    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    Sorry, Vance.... You're not Adam Savage, you can't reject this reality and replace it with your own.

    The Twit destroying Twitter is a Twaitor

    Musk doesn't care. He likes to benefit from scientific achievement, but radio telescopes don't pad his pocket book. The discovery of things thousands of light-years away might benefit his descendants, but won't help him tomorrow, after all. This is a man who takes sci-fi cautionary tales as...

    Israeli-Palestinian Conflict

    This is about as precision as explosives can be, unfortunately. If someone is standing near someone who happens to have an exploding pager, the chances of collateral damage are high. Bombs don't discriminate.... Still it's much better than lobbing rockets at locations where you think an...

    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    They are grasping at straws at this point. Trump continues to slip in the polls, even after the second assassination attempt, mostly because he won't keep his mouth shut, and neither will his VP pick. I swear it's like Trump has really grown to like the taste of his own foot since Biden...

    Star Trek General Discussion

    Main crew complement was around 1k. Family along for the ride was likely around that much as well, still well under capacity. The Galaxy class ships still in service by the Dominican war probably had a major personnel increase. Gotta have ground assault troops ready and more pilots and...

    Star Trek General Discussion

    Funny thing is if you look at the crew compliment of the Enterprise D and compare it to the size, good chunk of the corridors WOULD be empty. The thing is way bigger than a Nimitz class carrier yet has a smaller crew size. The thing could handle over 10,000 civilians in case of an emergency...

    Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    My guess is he was likely gonna use a pejorative commonly thrown at women and held back at the last second. Several options there, so I don't know which one he intended to use.

    Israeli-Palestinian Conflict

    Ah, gotcha, though they were lipos, which don't explode, per say, but do ignite rather violently under the right conditions which can result in some pretty severe burns. Quite the work on the Israeli's pulling that off, then.

    First assassin seems to have been trying to achieve 'suicide by cop' in an epic way, second assassin is just a kook with a long running violent streak. Doubt the Biden or Harris campaigns had much to do with either.

    Israeli-Palestinian Conflict

    Wounded, not killed(though i'm sure there may be a few fatalities. either due to the person already being in a weakened state or due to it happening while they were driving causing them to crash or something) I still wonder how this was pulled off, though. Must have been some major flaw in...
