this is actually not supported by any data. its pure speculation. plus the handful of UBI trials don't show the catastrophic breakdown of labor supply you claim to inevitably happen... the reality is until a proper ubi trial is done wi

they collected dozens if not hundreds of samples of various viruses. not all the work gets published. in fact majority of scientific effort doesn't get published. experiments either don't work or you don't get interesting res

it's a hell of coincidence that out of all chinese cities the outbreak started in the one city housing the premiere institute dedicated to researching coronaviruses... so there is no smoking gun evidence, but it's a reasonable hyp

I find this thinking fascinating: "the pilots and the military don't know shit, they are easily fooled by bokeh. mick west, a video game programmer, will now explain how a classified f-18 FLIR targeting pod works and why its showi

antigravity is a civilization changing technology that has unlimited economic value. the idea that the americans would use it exclusively for spying instead of colonizing the solar system and beyond is... improbable to say the least

millennia? modern physics goes back a couple hundred years tops. relevant physics that aka prohibits FTL travel is less than a hundred years old (theory of relativity)...

until there is a theory of everything i don't think its reasonable to rule out the possibility of FTL travel. even physicists got all worked up few years ago when they detected FTL neutrinos at CERN (which turned out to be a sensor mal

i love military footage debunk videos, where the debunker makes layman assumptions about how a particular highly classified sensor works and the idiot pilots just don't know how to use it properly
