  1. Once the technological cat is out of the bag, there’s really no putting it back. At best, you can hope brain drain and time eliminates the capability, but the ability to bluff will remain for decades (Russia?). What much more severe consequences would you impose on countries we wish wouldn’t have nukes? Wouldn’t those severe consequences simply hasten their use?
  2. I dig that giant nerd Anders Nielsen. I think the most important point he makes in that video is that Putin is not a rational actor from the eyes of the west because what Putin “knows” to be true is actually false. This does give me pause, however, as Anders and others have very rationally explained why Putin would never use nukes…
  3. You’ve been to Disney World with your kids and it cracked this list?
  4. They must mean other than June ‘22… or they mean sustained. Oddly specific at 9% either way
  5. It’s odd that this needs to be explained, slowly, to so many people.
  6. People who were capable of recognizing one number being larger than another? *buy
  7. Let’s be real, there were no easy outs in the B12 the last several years and there wasn’t even much glory in winning the B12 - we were SUPPOSED to. Outside of OU, there were only a couple opponents that could boost our resume most years and they were household names like *checks notes* Kansas State, Oklahoma State, and Texas Christian. I’m so fucking glad we’re in the SEC now
  8. Good point. I thought it was fucked up he was talking to Milroe at that time but yeah, turns out he may have had a good reason.
  9. Maybe. So 5 SEC, 3 B1G, 2 ACC, 1 B12, 1 G5.. obviously a lot of season to play but as of now, what other combo looks more likely?
  10. This year? I feel like it’s pretty much guaranteed that the top 4 SEC teams get in. B1G will be lucky to get 2. ACC will be lucky to get 2. B12 will get 1. G5 gets 1… we’re still only at 10 of 12. What am I missing?
  11. I didn’t see him try to hurt Pavia and I still can’t because twitter can’t handle traffic…
  12. He started by throwing his mouth guard like 15 yards to the other side of the LOS. Then gestured st his teammates and flailed about … then walked up to the LOS and kicked the ball that was on the ground about 10 yards. It was quite the display
  13. The Bama offense is ridiculous and the defense is suspect as fuck. They’re like a B12 team from when the B12 was fun.
  14. I don’t think he was wrong … about the fans
  15. Last month got revised up! but fuckin’ Phil is now living behind the Wendy’s dumpster so existing sales need to turn the fuck around!
  16. kidding! … One day a portfolio based on the actual economy, rather than the fed and global politics, will be ideal. Not sure when. Maybe never. Cheers
  17. Encouraging https://www.kyivpost.com/post/39907
  18. That was my first thought. my second thought was what the fuck is a positron
  19. This needs pinned. Russia is winning the same way I’d be winning by slamming my dick in a drawer if my goal was to break the drawer. Sure, one day, but…
  20. Are we concerned about tension in the Middle East now? I’ll believe it when I see it. Iran doesn’t actually want war with Israel and the US
  21. (Seriously both sides but) Aren’t most currencies linked/dependent on the USD, especially the Euro? To some extent, don’t we export inflation? Won’t monetary policy in the US impact the rest of the world, especially the western world?
  22. I don’t know shit about that particular case, but I know that a spiked volleyball can cause whiplash and brain injury without any obvious immediate symptoms. The brain interprets sensor data (think eyes, ears) and can essentially forget how to do it due to even mild injury. You then get stuck in a negative feedback/migraine loop that only prescription medication and gradual eye/vestibular PT can break and cure, respectively. My wife spent 6 months suffering ignorant (but specialized) doctors before we found a young neurologist who just happened to know a PT that specialized in this… all due to a spiked (then deflected) volleyball. Women are more susceptible to this sort of brain injury than men.
