Hardly a surprise. This crack team of negotiators couldn't make Russia budge an inch after a year of negotiations, and only managed to put pressure on the victim country.

Hilarious. Trump didn't agree to let Iran have control of the strait in a desperate attempt, they just can't find the mines, because if they could, the strait would have been open by now. This is funnier than when Vance tried to d

It's safe to assume nothing has actually changed until there's a signed deal. With Trump it's all just talk.

Bitcoin is in a side trend. It's slightly up because it follows the equity market. Nothing indicates an increased demand yet.

The talks are theater. Trump is running around like a headless chicken, so it may look like a lot of "diplomacy" is happening, but if you look at the Iranian side, they remain in control over the strait, and their demands haven&#x

There's no ceasefire until Israel stops attacking. Iran retains control over the strait, and their demands haven't changed. Nothing's new other than Iran is ready to sit at the negotiating table because Trump caved-in enough.

I will side with any country that's being illegally attacked, and whose population is being illegally targeted, thank you very much. Sovereignty is fundamental, it's been broken. The state of Iran is the result of US and Israeli m

I think it's useful to drive the point home that there is no good reason to give birth lying down. Otherwise you make it sound like "scientists say you should try this", and not "this was a stupid idea in the first place

The military propaganda in the US is so strong that it doesn't matter how many innocent lives US soldiers take, even the staunchest US liberals will thank the troops because "just following orders" or "poverty draft&quot

They took a page from the US administration playbook and manifested a victory into existence.

Considering the number of friendly fire incidents these moronic planes cause, Iran would probably be better off leaving them be.

I stopped watching him because I don't understand why a competent finance expert is slinging ads for earbuds and quick meals. Feels like he's just making "Youtube content" rather than anything serious.

Sorry, are you suggesting that the US top brass wants less of something, but the politicians won't let them? That the US top brass would reform and modernize the military if only politicians wouldn't get in the way? Is this April

It's a waste. Iran can't win against the US army. They'll win by being as disruptive as possible, for as long as possible. They'll keep seldomly launching rockets until they get what they want or the global economy colla

The USA military is losing equipment sitting unprotected on the tarmac 4 years since Russia invaded Ukraine. Your shining city is a polished turd.

No, stop, you're misusing it. The purpose of this site is to build parasocial relationships with strangers online.

It's not. The news is the usage of fiberoptics to do the measurement, and prove the effects of tillage scientifically. The title manages to both confuse tillage with plowing, and bury the lede.

NYT is in favor of Israel. They'll whitewash any president who bombs middle-eastern countries. You do that by sanely discussing what's obviously horrendous war crimes, and by making "both sides" arguments.

The media should be asking about Epstein every time they have a chance, but it doesn't happen, because the news makes it's money through audience capture via FOMO, and you do that by always moving to the latest thing that happened

This is basically why I buy the tech dip. When you pay for software, you pay for infrastructure, expertise, QA, consumer relations, having staff on call, etc. It was always possible to replace enterprise software by 2 guys coding a product

Apples and oranges. Derailing an argument with tangential topics will never cease to piss me off.

I'm not encouraging anything. I'm not the one putting onerous on the victims. Open a dictionary, if you don't know what "audacity" means.

What's surprising is how nonchalantly people like you suggest victims should just surrender and leave. Exactly the same thing was told to Ukrainians after the invasion. The fucking audacity you people have is staggering.

Yes, one stardust's inherited company gets bailed out by their dad's friend, the other loses their minimum wage job, slips on a sidewalk, and has their life ruined by medical debt. Ah, the wonders of the universe.

Which clanker generated this slop for you? I pasted the first 2 lines of this post into the free Gemini version and got 3 out of 4 of these theories.

A distributed power grid made out of PV panels, windmills, and local energy stores is far more resilient during armed conflict than a handful of large targets along with a supply chain necessary to keep them going.

The replies to his tweet look AI generated too. This is such cancer.
