I know years ago they did some kind of test to show that people can still breathe the fluid we breathe when in the womb. Figured I’d spell it wrong haha

Wait so like they took less than 1.5 liters in their ass and didn’t have to breathe for an hour?

“Why doesn’t Sam have a scuba tank?”.

They just topped up their ass

I use a split tunnel for the VPN. You can route specific applications/services to go through the VPN, and leave the Plex access how it is currently if you want. I have my jellyfin server set up that one of my browsers and qbitorrent all go through the VPN tunnel that’s always connected, then RustDesk, my file server, jellyfin and what not runs locally. So I don’t have to lose access to Jellyfin when acquiring any content.

Note: you can actually kick off a download through the VPN, and tell it to download sequentially, then just refresh the movies list in your player(jellyfin for me) and start watching the movie while it downloads. Thought that was a nice surprise.

Honestly don’t know for certain, but Israel pays a lot of money into lobbying in the U.S.

On a side note I would say Israel is the U.S. guaranteed entry point to that region of the world, so when it comes to intimidating other countries having a foothold somewhere there is of value to the U.S. (vehicle efficiency has increased, and car ownership dropped from 138 million registered in 2021 to 97 million registered in 2023.). So 30% loss in cars., and population increased from ~285m to ~337m during that time. (Irrelevant, but for scale that’s 127% of Canadas population total)

So the U.S. has stockpiled military equipment in Israel for decadees that is well defended do to shared technologies. This allows for unilateral support if say Bush 1 or Bush 2 wants to manipulate the area for something pertaining to oil prices getting to low/high. Contrary to many, I believe the U.S. ensures oil barrels stay higher in price because the lifting cost in the U.S. is higher. A good example is our oil production has increased by more than double from 2001 till today.

If the cost of oil in Iran/Saudia Arabia go lower that profitability drops, and some of the largest contributors to the Republican party (oil companies in the west, would see huge drops in income).

Other countries of interest there. Argentina, Columbia, and Venezuela. Should also mention Brazil, but they have grown closer ties with China who they export most of their excess Oil production too. Harder to impact at the moment, so they likely want to keep them out of direct conflicts.

Remember Trump sat down in May 2024 asking oil executives directly for $1 billion dollars in campaign contributions to help him get elected with the promise to squash any programs he could pertaining to EV growth.

If one stops trying to subjugate the other, the other should hopefully slowly start to be calm down about the subjugation.

Years and years of people stealing land, burning houses, shooting unarmed protesters and prosecuting people unfairly only leads to more hatred, more conflict, and more war.

If there was any chance of a free and fair election in Palestine that could elect something else it would be good, but only would end up different if it came without Israel’s interference and them actually staying out of Palestine. Governments like Israel and the U.S. or U.K. trying to put anyone on the ground there is more likely to cause conflicts. Where as if the UN countries all agreed to cut all trade with Israel if they didn’t stop trying to instigate shit… Israel would likely listen, or dissolve over time if they didn’t. The only people who should be on the ground there is investigate journalists and AID from around the world to help those people rebuild and leave whatever can be left behind them behind them

Think it depends where you live. Florida and many parts of Louisiana can get away with Sugarcane which should wipe the floor with corn on energy density per acre. If you get further north some areas can do sugar beets which also wipe the floor with energy per acre if people are trying to create the ethenol for vehicles and what not. Still have to rotate crops with something different though, I’m no expert but beans and edible small grains like those used for barley, hops, and what not may be able to not be a huge nitrogen sink. Maybe some carrots as well? Idk

So you can end up with 2x the ethenol per acre off sugar beets and keep bean costs lower in this country with no import costs. While also maybe providing local breweries or even large companies like Yuengling who still try to buy u.s. grown crops. Since Anheiser Busch was bought by inbev (Belgium?) I’m not sure where they get their products from.

Last I knew Coca-Cola was still importing shit tons of coco leaves every year to process in New Jersey (legally under permits)… not sure if that comes from Columbia or Peru though

It was never a war of on drugs, it was a war of subjugation. The war is going exactly how they wanted it too.

People are afraid enough of drugs they can manipulate elections with them. The number of people who were convinced Fentanyl was being brought over the Mexican border by people trying to illegally immigrate and that those 2 issues were tied together was high.

They made people scared, and manipulated them into allowing the government to get away with persecuting people while disregarding the inequality of it.

Yeah, it was definitely a get readers attention scare tactic. 10% tax on hotels is nothing.

It’s like saying “We had to raise our taxes to match that of Florida districts due to federal cuts by Trump”

Sensationalism, but some may be more true than others

No shit, what else would I have meant?

10%, that’s a large difference than 900%. This is one of the times I came to the comments to see if the article is worth reading, now I guess I have to to figure out the fuck they meant

Palia. It’s free on Xbox and PlayStation. Has in game purchases but I’ve never bought one. My fiancee started playing it recently and ask me to play. You can grow a farm, it’s 3D, get a glider, run around and do missions. (MMO) Play with others and get bonuses in XP. I’m only about 3 hrs gameplay so far. It’s cross platform because she plays Xbox, so if that helps… idk

Edit: also fishing, chopping wood, story lines idk. It’s worth checking out if you have time/access.

Edit 2: my fiance wanted me to say they have a Halloween event going on right now, and they have gatherings/events to encourage people to meet each other and team up and help each other grow

“lighthearted” discussion Trump called it according to the article. Joking with him about sending missiles that will incapacitate fuel for his constituents or soilders and their equipment.

Out of curiosity, what does this do to the USD? I know it is a “small” amount relative to our country, but if they are swapping $40b in U.S. Dollars for a currency of high volatility, isnt it a guaranteed loss of believed stability in those USD up to that amount?

The illusion of the U.S. being a free country will hold for a while, to those who wish it is true. That’s the problem

Since Batman doesn’t wear glasses and has a mask, I feel like it’s just as likely he’d have a like a smart glasses type thing built into his mask. So he really wouldn’t have to look anywhere but the notification would just be a translucent overlay.

Or maybe full coverage heat retardant smart contacts, so they protect his eyes from any debris/explosions. Kind of like what Tom Cruise wore to perform the outside the plane stunt in the last mission impossible movie. Covers the whole outside of the eyeball so the wind does dry out your eye or make it so you can’t see.

Didn’t see the movie, but heard about the stunt

I thought HDMI to Ethernet to HDMI was cool the first time we had to do it for a project in a large room. Hdmi starts running into issues at around 25-50ft. You can go a lot further with the Ethernet cable

It doesn’t need much RAM, my file server/jellyfin server runs on an old laptop I just have sitting with the lid closed on a desk near my router. I RustDesk into it for anything I need, and I have a split VPN tunnel running at all times, so anything I acquire goes through another IP.

(Had a 256gb SSD laying around I put in it for the OS, and 2 1tb USB hhd’s hold media). Jellyfin runs on both our cheap Roku TV’s, and our phones if we ever wanted)

Lol, sorry I edited this. That’s comical. He wasn’t the only man to attack the sea, nor promote a horse to rank. History is full of fun

Care to explain who godking xerxses is to us mortals? Is it a reference to the battle of thermopile?
