I guess I was misunderstanding. I thought that Starlink was deliberately ignoring the sanctions because they were able to shut it off real quick once Musk got that tweet https://x.com/sikorskiradek/status/20162213

I think you misunderstood, I do not pity them at all. I am just pointing out it is bad strategy to be dependent on foreign potentially-hostile technology. In particular, I heard this through Mallen Baker at https://www.youtube.c

I'm still trying to figure out the justification of ICE operating in foreign countries. Are there illegal immigrants in Italy? This is not about immigration. https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7007390/2026&#x2

While I don't know if license and copyright are the same thing, the film Night of the Living Dead was famously accidentally added to the public domain due to a forgotten copyright notice.

While I can't name any specific case, I seem to recall a true crime involving two separate trials, one for federal charges and one for state charges. The person was acquitted of one and was then tried for the other. Somehow, this doe

It is built around driving cars, but not necessarily car ownership. From what I gather through movies and television, cities like New York City don't really have car owners, but there are a lot of taxi cabs. Now Uber and Lyft have mo

There is some discussion about creating a new term, "Christ-like" to differentiate from the current Christian right. A number of years ago there was a saying WWJD (What Would Jesus Do?) that epitomizes the new Christ-like term.

I didn't bother to vote in 2016 because I wasn't paying attention. I was used to politics being about two nearly identical groups who both wanted what was best for America. By 2020 and 2024, everyone should have known who this g

I'm of the opinion that the Russians, through paid online trolling, are responsible for starting this 10 years ago. They helped stoke the fears that got Trump elected the first time.

You'd need a test for every random chemical someone can use to get high. This story piqued my interest a few years ago because I didn't realize people got high off bug spray. I think the best alternative solution is to get better

It is bonded to the paper. The paper is soaked in liquid drugs and then left to dry. The books are then shipped to the jails. Once there, the pages are then torn out and eaten or smoked. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=bug+pest

In any other presidency, it would be Russia. We had a cold war with them for 40+ years with anticipations that a hot war could start at literally any moment (see the fictional film Red Dawn). But, I don't think that Trump would invad

The flip-side of enrolling your enemies is that they form lifelong friendships with both the local students and the country as a whole. It makes it a lot harder to hate a country once you get to know them.

I agree with you that it is not like the other Nobels, but it seems to me that it is only the Peace Prize that really embodies Alfred Nobel's regret in creating a misused weapon.

Maybe this is a not-so-subtle way of telling him that he lacks the personality to ever earn one. Maybe they are hoping that if he understands that, he'll stop doing ridiculous things in the attempt. If that is their motive, they shou

This same guy, Nick Shirley, traveled to Ukraine and made a video about how there really wasn't a war and the Ukranians were just spending our money on luxury cars. A reporter, Caolan Robertson, who has spent years covering the war go

I can't tell if you are talking about keeping the car in the US or Canada, but I can tell you in the US, you have to register the car. If you don't register the car, they don't just issue fines, they tow and charge daily sto

"Eat your vegetables. They're good for you." shouldn't mean dipping your fries in ketchup. But that is what happens if you call corn and potatoes as vegetables.

It depends on what you call a vegetable. In the US, corn, potatoes, and ketchup are considered vegetables. You need to make a distinction between leafy greens and starch.
