Guys, stop quoting ramjet to goad him into participating in other aspects of the discussion that he clearly does not want to participate in. He was summoned to answer a technical question as an expert, stop fucking with him.
Was he really being "fucked with"? A couple folks gave him shit for throwing out a "both sides", but I don't understand where this defensive reflex comes from. You're claiming victimization that didn't happen lol, he got a shitton of rep and folks were disagreeing with some of what he said and otherwise mostly agreeing.
Isn't that the sort of discussion you WANT on your board? I don't understand why you're doing the work of claiming that CR is a cess pool and validating the talking points of Incredulity and Johnny Sack and the other fascists of the board

What's building up in LA is going to be Ghorman Massacre type of thing. Trump wants the smoke, and he's flying Blackhawks full of weapons and CBP officers while activating the national guard on a NATIONAL scale. His presidential memo does not specify only California.
Anywhere, EVERYWHERE, in America - protesting is now considered an act of rebellion. They're literally drawing up battle lines and sending in soldiers.
Buckle up mods, its gonna be the 2020 summer of love all over again. Only worse.

Cruelty AND a deportation
https://people.com/defendant-faked-trump-assassination-letter-get-witness-deported-11748015
QuoteA Wisconsin defendant faked assassination threats against President Donald Trump in order to get the star witness in his criminal trial deported, prosecutors claim.
Demetric Deshawn Scott was charged with identity theft, bail jumping and felony intimidation of a witness in a criminal complaint filed in Milwaukee County Circuit Court on Monday, June 2, and obtained by The Washington Post.
Scott, 52, is accused of writing several letters to U.S. officials under someone else's name that threatened the lives of Trump and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, saying things like, “I think it is time Donald J. Trump get what he has coming to him.”
One letter allegedly reads, "I will self deport myself back to Mexico but not before I use my 30 yard 6 to shoot your precious president in his head. I will see him at one of his big ralleys."
Another allegedly reads, “My family is with the Mexican Mafia how would you like it if we use a bomb to blow up the white house while your precious president is still inside... Somone [sic] need to blow this entire country up like 911 in New York. Can’t you white understand we are tired of running its time to kill ICE Agents or be killed.”
Fake Donald Trump Assassination Letter
One of the allegedly fake threats sent to government officials.
Department of Homeland Security
In the complaint against Scott, prosecutors allege that he wrote the letters in order to impersonate and frame Ramón Morales Reyes, 54, who is set to testify against him in a case of armed robbery and aggravated battery in July.Scott’s plan, the complaint alleges — citing multiple calls made from the Milwaukee County Jail using Scott’s inmate ID number — was to get Reyes deported before he could testify against him by getting the Trump administration's attention.
“This dude is a goddamn illegal immigrant and they just need to pick his ass up,” Scott allegedly said, according to one call transcript. “I’m dead serious, ‘cause I got jury trial on July 15. I got final pretrial on June 16, so if he is apprehended by the 16th, we can go into court and say, ‘Hey, he’s in custody now. There is no reason for us to even continue the July 15 jury date.’ And the judge will agree cause if he gets picked up by ICE, there won’t be a jury trial so they will probably dismiss it that day. That’s my plan.”
...
The mailed assassination threats succeeded in catching the attention of the Trump administration, which has reportedly given ICE orders to arrest 3,000 immigrants each day.
Morales Reyes was apprehended by ICE officials on May 22, and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem described him at the time as an “illegal alien who threatened to assassinate President Trump.”
However, the complaint explains that Milwaukee investigators quickly realized Morales Reyes does not read, write or fluently speak English. They also tested his handwriting against the threatening letters and found it to be “completely different.”
According to the complaint, Scott was then interviewed by a police detective on May 30, in which he allegedly confessed to writing the letters and said his goal was “freedom.” Authorities also searched his jail cell and allegedly discovered the blue pen used to write the letters as well as contact information for the Wisconsin Attorney General’s Office and the Milwaukee ICE office, both recipients of the forged threats.
Despite Scott’s alleged confession, Morales Reyes remained in ICE custody and is expected to appear before an immigration judge on June 4.
In an email to The Associated Press, Morales Reyes’ attorney, Cain Oulahan, said he is exploring all legal avenues to get his client released.
“While he has a U visa pending, those are unfortunately backlogged for years, so we will be looking at other options to keep him here with his family, which includes his three U.S. citizen children,” Oulahan wrote.
TLDR: Chuds are successfully using ICE to deport inconvent immigrants. Just lie about a crime they didn't do, and bingo bango ICE jumps into action

Trouble in paradise, and lulz at the MUH FREEZE PEACH leopards eating his face
President Donald Trump on Saturday said there would be “serious consequences” if tech mogul Elon Musk funds Democratic candidates to run against Republicans who vote in favor of the GOP’s sweeping budget bill.
“If he does, he’ll have to pay the consequences for that,” Trump told NBC News in a phone interview, but declined to share what those consequences would be.
“He’ll have to pay very serious consequences if he does that,” he added.
The president also said he has no desire to repair his relationship with Musk after a feud between the two men erupted into public view earlier this week.
“No,” Trump said when asked if he had any wish to do so.
Asked if he thought his relationship with the Tesla and SpaceX CEO was over, Trump said, “I would assume so, yeah.”

The only good way to research, develop, manufacture, assemble, and utilize space vehicles is when the project is managed by public sector engineers. Period. Anyone who argues against that is a complete fucking moron with no understanding that history has already well vindicated this position.
People arguing otherwise don't care about science and exploration - the most important thing to them is sweet sweet profit. If there's no profit, it's not worth doing in their view

this video starts with a reporter who goes undercover dating maga guys and “tells all”, and goes on to cover more of why/how all of these insular, right wing communities have grown so rapidly over recent years:
i can’t even tell you how many guys i used to be friends rich from here in pflugerville who’ve fallen for this maga shit and transformed who they are as a person because of it. just hurt, insecure men who inundate themselves with this type of fake alpha male, new right wing maga bro culture. it’s honestly been shocking and saddening to see.
"seek out a support group which is actually a bunch of white supremacists using political beliefs as an excuse for how they feel"
baw gawd she nailed it. Feels are what's the real thing to these weak little men.

And yes it's about folks selling your information. Why the fuck can't our government make unwanted solicitations a crime with enough penalties to stop the endless bullshit. It's the best part about going offshore or off grid. No more fucking calls that I do not fucking care about.
Consumer protections are woke, duh. It would be communist if we didn't let your personal information be bought and sold by 3rd parties to the detriment of your daily life. This is the actual reasoning used by our legislators why we don't have this sort of protection

ICE stormtroopers are dressing as public utility workers to gain entry, and then illegally arresting those inside
https://tucson.com/news/local/border/article_e949f7c5-d339-4546-804c-cbb3c970af38.html
Quote“They’re lying! They’re not in uniform,” Cariño says in the video, which she shared with the Star and which KGUN 9 first reported. “Don’t let them in; they don’t have a warrant.”
Immigration agents can’t enter a private space such as a home without consent, unless they have a judicial warrant signed by a judge. ICE agents usually have only an administrative warrant, which doesn’t carry the same authority, or no warrant, advocates say.
Speaking outside the undocumented man’s front door, the suspected agents then said the man had missed an immigration court date, which the man denied, saying he attends all of his scheduled court dates, Cariño said.
An ICE spokeswoman declined to comment on the allegations of agents impersonating TEP workers, saying, “It’s an ongoing investigation,” in an email response to the Star’s questions.
The spokeswoman, Yasmeen Pitts O’Keefe, told the Star twice via email that if she were in the reporter’s position, “I’d be very careful with the TEP storyline.” She declined to elaborate
This is straight up evil cruelty. Someone is gonna have to buy a shitload of Haitian orphanages to pay off this stain on their soul

I read that the drones cost about 500 bucks each and that they launched 117 of them, meaning 64k in drones did seven billion dollars in damage.
I keep thinking that our 15 billion dollar aircraft carriers might be a foolish "Maginot Line" type investment.CVN's aren't a defensive weapons system - they're power projection. The US policy for the last six or seven decades has been power projection as foreign policy.
Since we're giving up on foreign policy the CVN's were a bad investment

It will use the lightning network on top of bitcoin.
May 27 2025, LAS VEGAS – Block, Inc. (NYSE: XYZ) today announced it will launch bitcoin payments on Square, marking a significant milestone in making bitcoin more accessible and usable. Bitcoin payments on Square will be showcased at Bitcoin 2025 in Las Vegas from May 27-29, where attendees can experience this new feature firsthand at the BTC Inc. merchandise store. By leveraging the Lightning Network, the Square Point of Sale app enables merchants to accept bitcoin payments directly through their Square hardware for near-instantaneous, low-cost transactions. The roll out is anticipated to begin in the second half of 2025 and is expected to reach all eligible Square sellers in 2026, subject to applicable regulatory approvals.
Square’s new, native Bitcoin For Businesses offering will build upon its Bitcoin Conversions feature launched in 2024, which allows qualified merchants to automatically convert a portion of their daily sales into bitcoin. Together, these bitcoin offerings will create a seamless experience for both merchants and customers, helping bitcoin to fulfill its original vision as a true peer-to-peer payment system, as outlined in the bitcoin whitepaper.
“Block has long been a champion of bitcoin, focused on making it more accessible and usable in our everyday lives," said Miles Suter, Bitcoin Product Lead at Block. “Rolling out a native bitcoin experience to millions of sellers brings us one step closer to that goal. When a coffee shop or retail store can accept bitcoin through Square, small businesses get paid faster, and get to keep more of their revenue. This is about economic empowerment for merchants who like to have options when it comes to accepting payments.”
For customers, paying with bitcoin is as simple as scanning a QR code at checkout. The Lightning Network enables near-instant settlement, while Square's integration handles all the complexity behind the scenes, including real-time exchange rate calculations and confirmation notifications.
“We believe in an open, decentralized, fair, fast, and low-cost money system for everyone, and that’s exactly what we want to bring to Square sellers,” added Suter.
Bitcoin payments on Square will be the latest addition to Block’s growing bitcoin ecosystem, which includes Cash App’s bitcoin buy, sell, and transfer capabilities; Bitkey, a self-custody bitcoin wallet; Proto, a suite of bitcoin mining products and services; and Spiral, which builds and funds open-source projects that advance the use of bitcoin as a tool for economic empowerment.
Block is also advancing global access to bitcoin through Bitkey, a self-custody bitcoin wallet launched in March 2024. Starting in May, Bitkey will roll out new privacy and security features to further strengthen user control and protection. Designed to eliminate the complexity of traditional seed phrases, Bitkey uses a built-in, multi-signature security and recovery system that offers users full control and simple recovery options. It's the only hardware wallet that provides inheritance as a recovery feature to all users, helping people ensure that if they are unable to move their funds their beneficiaries are able to initiate a recovery process. Bitkey was built to make self-custody intuitive, secure, and accessible for people around the world.
In addition, Block is building Proto, bitcoin mining products and services that aim to decentralize mining by increasing access to tools for builders, regardless of size or location.
hooray, they've created paypal with extra steps and somehow even less guardrails! It's specifically breaking the trustless model of BTC to require trust in a 3rd party and the sidechain you set up with them to enable lightning network payments. And it requires up-front funding of any escrow lightning side-chains you set up, which is a considerable barrier to onboarding.
