18 billion yearly profit last I checked.

Not enough.

Never enough.

No one does that.

President has wide latitude in matters like this. Air strikes in this context are legal for him. He can even deploy troops as long as their deployment isn’t longer then 60 days.

Because they can be slotted in to work existing machinery without retooling the entire plant.

Wouldn’t know, have ublock.

8gb of RAM? What year is this?

Further erode relations between Israel and other ME countries.

Turn international political option against Israel.

The only path to any kind of resolution in which Gaza gets sovereignty is if Israel is forced to the table by the international community.

To do that, Hamas has to get Israel to kill as many Gaza citizens as they can

What media is an LLM going to be able to reproduce that I can’t already reproduce with a copy paste?

That critical mass will never come because people don’t feel the data has been stolen from them.

Rather, it’s traded in exchange for whatever online services they use.

And to them it’s a decent trade.

Solution is stop using delivery services.

They are more efficient than pure ICE vehicles though in most situations.

At low speed and city driving the regenerative breaking can make a 30mpg motor into a 50-60 mpg motor.

I drove one for awhile and the efficiency is noticable.

I think the per capita measurement of pollution for China is not really an apples to apples comparison to other first world nations as so much of their population lives in poverty.

Good. Influencers are a plague.

I never watched x-files when it aired.

I tried to watch it a few years back but only made it to season 2. Maybe it gets better later, but the show was so formulaic that I grew bored of it pretty quick.

If anything, that supports the idea that the poll numbers should be even harder against the war than they are reported.

It was all part of an effort to economically hurt Russia in response to the war.

Best case scenario was Russia deciding the hit to their economy was not worth the war and back pedaling. No one realistically thought this was going to happen though.

The next best case scenario was for the changes in quality of life for the average Russian would create enough internal pressure that the war would be called off.

This hasn’t happened yet but internal support for the war has been dropping over the last year and some of that is attributed to the dismal state of the Russian economy, which is a direct result of things like Lush pulling out.

And even if neither of these come up fruition, the more Russias economy is damaged the harder it is to fund their war effort. This gives Ukraine a bit more breathing room in their war effort.

While the effect of a single company like Lush is unnoticed, it’s the collective effect of everything from these pullouts, to trade sanctions and other soft power diplomatic plays which total up to a noticable effect.

A lot of people.

Just because things don’t turn out how you hoped doesn’t mean you didn’t make the right decision at the time with the information that was available.

Too often we judge past actions only through the lens of hindsight. It’s useful for learning what went wrong but it’s not useful for judging if something was the right decision or not.

I’ll tell you that it’s super nice to be able to watch things with other people in the car while you are all waiting on the car to charge.

Also, you don’t have to hold a phone and the screen is better.
