I think the way things are going nuclear war is likely, and the worse part is may be not fully intentional. I think nuclear war is survivable if you are in a good location and already prepped to survive 2+ years on your preps and have the m

Ideally, municipalities in SA would be poised to create municipal solar farms a la municipal broadband. But if you can't get the energy to the consumer because of theft, then only people who can afford it and have space can use it.

This makes me wonder if simply burying what you have is a better option. One of my long standing goals is to buy some raw land for hunting and camping, like 50+ acres. I could easily bury several caches of valuables, that only my immediate

One of the things I like is when the narrator has to suppress a laugh during a funny passage, or can express a character's anger or frustration. Until AI is so good that it can mimic emotion, I think there will be a market for human na

Well this is part of what creates the conspiracy theory that some state actors were behind FTX. At the very least, the fact that SBF's mom was fixer for the Democrats, means he was likely Epstein level connected with political insiders

I've seen a number of various voices speaking up about the possibility of a turn key totalitarian state in the US. Where everything is in place and waiting for some just to turn it on. That is the worst case scenario here. That said ob

Yeah, I can see how this would be easier if you work from home, but you could explain that you are running a long lived experiment on yourself. Then again, that doesn't exactly scream "I am fully sane" :)

That last line was kinda surprising to hear. Not a big Elon fan, but generally I think you at least wait a quarter to see if they've run it into the ground or not.

Well the Energy Department just approved a new nuclear design for testing. Not sure how long it was in the works. If there is enough money to be made, you better believe it will get done faster that 15 years.
