   I think you are confusing schools like Harvard with your run of the mill state university. The latter rarely has much of an endowment to fund itself with.

   It has the look of a mini Christiania, nice to see something like this sprout up in the US. I hope it sticks around and becomes something really cool.

   I'm sorry, you sound extremely delusional. We don't live in a world where most people have the resources to "vote with their wallet" on these matters. You drive for Uber or shop at Walmart because it's the work you

   There is a protocol. It's called "Shut the fuck up or they will think you are smoking dope and you will lose your wings." Seriously, that's been the way of handling these sorts of things for the past 50+ years.

   I'd switch over to a proper email provider like https://cock.li/ I'd even use Tor when I did it. Take that, surveillance state!

   OP may very well have, by benefit of IQ alone, a shot like that, but the intention of the society is squarely to place him under the rest, without a way to atone or make right. If he's part of the set, he's part of the set. Whethe

    OP, I'm really sorry you are in this boat. My honest opinion is that this is a bullshit charge you are forced to carry around, I wish you the best and hope you find an employer who agrees. It is unfortunately the case that the US gross

    Similar stories and even worse have been happening for years. I'm not sure why this sort of thing registers as news anymore. I'd expect more ink if YouTube actually said no to a copyright claim.

    I do not know how fast it is going, but I also don't think this Mick guy can tell from the video either. We can't tell from the video because it does not have the required information for either me or Mick to make a determination.

    Small-government libertarians in my experience are really ok with big-defense. They are the sort who fund NSA and it's incessant attempts to vacuum up all internet data, spy on all people, etc. They rarely understand that those same po

    Yes, I do find a bunch of navy pilots to be far better qualified to judge the object than this Mick West guy. They are literally trained to recognize this exact sort of object and motion. I guess they are wrong though cause they didn't

    Lol, let's mind-fuck the public and tell em there's shit running around that can radically outperform our best jets/pilots... Um, No. That's even dumber.

    Dude, navy pilots are trained to recognize this. They've had years now to come out with a statement saying it was a balloon and make it go away. They haven't and this story continues to pester their PR guys. But 'ol Mick here

    I just answered another post in a similar manner, but you bring it up, so I will reply to you as well. Why would the US navy want anyone to believe there is something buzzing about that they couldn't identify, and according to the pilo

    I mean, that's fine. I think the government's take on the video is that they don't know what it is. I'll assume you don't buy that. What's your take? They got the pilots to go on lots of news interviews after t

    My friend, I'm sorry, but you really think this explains anything? As others have pointed out in this thread, this is for people who want this to be an understood phenomenon and are willing to turn their brain off to get there. Navy pi

    This has been on here a number of times. Given how skeptical people are on here, I'm deeply curious what sort of mental gymnastics will be wheeled out to explain this. My bet is 100% on ET space probe. Anyone care to explain how these

    I grew up in the piracy era, if the code is possible to get and I want it, I get the code and do what I want. What is this license everyone keeps talking about? Never read one of those. Seems like a lot of wasted time and energy to me. I&#x

    What have we accomplished in this time? We know basically what we knew a month ago, we have no vaccine or treatment, and we know very well that the old and compromised are at much higher risk than the young. We also know that every passing

    My stepfather is a doctor and reports the same. Unless you are actually swamped with COVID-19 cases, the lockdown is having the perverse effect that people are going to the hospital less often. Diseases in general are spreading less now, fe
