  1. A software thing has a specific, weird, annoying problem. Normal people call it a "bug." Computer nerds call it a "feature."
  2. It’s classified. I could tell you, but I’d have to kill you.
  3. I totally understand the possibility the bridge may not have strategic importance and be worth the ordinance. But… The symbolism of destroying it makes me hard.
  4. I guess this thread is for dirty young women too? Megan Thee Stallion has been sued by a former employee who alleges she withheld payment and created an “abusive work environment”, including having sex with a woman next to him in a moving car. Cameraman Emilio Garcia alleges “severe” and “pervasive” harassment by the chart-topping rapper following the incident, including sexual comments and fat-shaming insults, as well as a loss of earnings. He is seeking unpaid wages and interest on them, as well as damages, and wage penalties under California labour laws. https://www.theguardian.com/music/2024/apr/24/megan-thee-stallion-accused-of-abusive-work-environment-including-sexual-harassment
  5. I'm not saying it's Alex Kurtzman. (But it's Alex Kurtzman.)
  6. 400,000 people without homes? Draft them. Solve two problems at once.
  7. So besides what we're giving to them, what else does Ukraine need? Just more of everything?
  8. Well Christopher Nolan wasn’t available, so…
  9. This movie will save Marvel. That’s ironic, and I’m here for all of it. RR got shot down SO many times trying to make DP and it’s gonna totally unfuck the multiverse. ”Let’s fuckin’ go.”
  10. I ease wrong and I’m gonna retract my comments some. China does have stealth fighters. Yeah Pete Mitchell shot 3 of them down, but that was with and F14. And we don’t have F14’s anymore. Joking aside, we have a decided advantage in tech, but not necessarily a numeric advantage in tech. We can shoot down Chinese cruise missiles until we run out of Patriots and then what? China’s biggest advantage is the same as Russia’s: brutality. Especially brutality towards their own people. Just send wave after wave after wave of all those extra <40 yo men they have. There are lots of reasons they could swamp Taiwan with that.
  11. And I think Taiwan is getting F35's? F 35's vs Chinese shitbox SU69's or whatever. LOLOLOLOLOLOL
  12. I think those critics were hoping for more of a backstory, and maybe some politics.
  13. I’m joking. That that $200B and buy weapons. Do it now.
  14. Those little shitheads won’t be so tough in gen pop.
  15. And the Europeans are afraid to straight up TAKE that money, there is a middle ground:
  16. It isn’t an action movie of course, but the action sure is good. Especially the end part. Just a well made movie in general. Writing, characters, cinematography, sound. Its message reminds me of “The Day After” from the 1980’s. It says, gratuitously, “Don’t do this.” When is Jesse Plemons gonna get his own movie? And is there any role Nick Offerman hasn’t killed? He had 90 seconds in this movie and you know exactly what his character is about. I’m surprised there isn’t a CR thread on this movie. Guess Garland managed to split the middle perfectly.
  17. I also worry about the precedent, but we’re at the stage the risk is worth it. We did things in WW2 that were dangerous precedents; some of which were still dealing with. But it was worth it. Same here I think. So again. Many of us are old enough to have been raised to hate the Russians. Is seeing out the dreams or Truman, Goldwater, Regan, John Rambo, enough reason to kill ‘em all, reason enough? It is for me. Let’s take their $300M and buy first-line weapons. And go kill Russians.
