Surprised there aren't more votes for Stein, hoping to see a big third party bump this election

I imagine there has to be hundreds of unexploded devices in Lebanon. I would expect to see some of those surface over the next few weeks, or someone get stopped at an airport with one

For both attacks, I've been seeing stories of a plane, the "EC-130H Compass Call" flying in the area. It's supposedly an electronic intelligence aircraft that hasn't been seen in the sky for about a year. I don&#x27

Why would you do that? Just out of vindictiveness?

How could the airing be blocked in another country?

He's a popular voice of dissent on Twitter and someone must be cracking down right now. Scott Ritter is another--he had his passport seized recently and his house raided by the FBI a week ago.

"Yes, Lake Michigan looks way bigger than this sphere, but you have to try to imagine a bubble almost 35 miles high—whereas the average depth of Lake Michigan is less than 300 feet (91 meters)"

It's hard not to view a story like this, at this particular time, as some type of coercive measure being used against someone. Tensions in the Middle East are the highest in 20 years and suddenly new 9/11 evidence starts popping u

Based on my understanding, the goal of kneecapping Huawei goes far beyond hurting the company’s P/L or market share. This is a geopolitics issue—-centered around slowing the advance of China’s technology sector related to chips /

I'm not seeing what the contradiction is. The US made a bet that Huawei couldn't survive without foreign help, and they seemingly lost that bet. Every country subsidizes private industry to varying degrees (CHIPS act, etc...) See

Which makes me think--are we sure this isn't malicious?

Hah, this reminded me that Dave Portnoy bought $500k of Rheinmetall stock about a month ago. He was copying the trade of a congresswoman who happens to be on the house subcommittee of military construction. Hard to imagine her trade wasn&#x

I think this post is more focused on nuclear defense in space. Which also changes the whole mutually assured destruction dynamic. Until 2002 we were in a treaty that limited anti-ballistic missile systems

Why do you think it's CGI? Looks real to me

I can't take these EU leaders seriously when they clamor for increased Chinese imports while continuously adding new sanctions on items they won't sell to China

I guess my point is: it seems like a lot of people believe China is subtly manipulating public opinion via TikTok, but I think it's more likely that these feelings are just organic and they surface in TikTok because people agree with

Is there any evidence that the content on TikTok isn't a result of the beliefs and interests of its users in America?

I guess we'll find out. I'll be waiting with bated breath for the collapse in Palestinian support once ByteDance no longer runs TikTok.

If India wanted to enforce the sanctions they would. I'm sorry but what America found out is they can't just enforce sanctions across the globe in the way they thought they could.

Didn't you hear, BBC said half of China is sinking into the ground so we should be good: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40102522

I'm surprised this passed (in the house at least) at this point in the election cycle. My suspicion is that ByteDance will in fact refuse to divest, and TikTok will get banned. Which I don't think the electorate will like very muc

Interesting. If this is true, would love to see what these "sound and radio frequency-based directed energy devices" look like. Could be pretty dangerous if they're easy to produce.

As someone who genuinely wants AI to take over most white-collar jobs (I'm burnt out), it's been 1.5 yrs without many jobs replaced. Worried it may never happen
