Richard Rhodes’ The Making of the Atomic Bomb is a great book that kind of explains all that in detail…
but i would say it is either the Curie’s experiments, discovering the neutron, splitting the atom, Fermi’s reactor, or the tests during the Manhattan project; all really well documented.
you are more than welcomed to pressure kamala on supporting the genocide. in fact, if one week from now she wins, i would hope that the support to stop the genocide continues. i know that AOC and bernie will; and I know that the russian propaganda machine that is just trying to demotivate harris’ voter will not, because their goal is not to protect the people of Palestine, but to impose an authoritarian president in the US. i assume that some of the people here will continue because they actually care; and some will stop because the propaganda machine will point towards something else
What you mean to say is no vote or a vote for a 3rd party doesn’t help harris, you’re preferred candidate. yes. thereby putting her candidacy at risk.
so you say that a no vote or 3rd party vote is a vote for trump, then. because those are the only 2 options. either trump or harris will be the next president of the united states. so, hurting harris means helping trump. you do get that, right?
Mac owners have money? more like had money
the reaction of the woman when he goes “Ashley Babbit was killed. Nobody was killed.”
well, with 2 trolleys it is the same amount of suffering as with 1
how fragile this country always was
i don’t think that the system and country was that fragile, it did required decades of propaganda from the far right to get to the point it is now
the techbros that think that with sufficiently advanced AI we could solve climate change are so stupid. like, we might not have a perfect solution, but we have ideas on how to start to make things better (less car-centric cities, less meat and animal products, more investment in public transport and solar), and it gets absolutely ignored. why would it be different when an AI gives the solution? unless they want the “eat fat-free food and you will be thin” solution to climate change, in which we change absolutely nothing of our current situation but it is magically ecological
same, but i am go between “he can’t be that stupid, he must know he is lying” and “oh, he is that stupid, he might believe the nonsense he says”
If he thinks that any positive change in an election year is election interference, then that would explain 2020. Maybe it is not that he wanted the pandemic or that he was too incompetent to just let experts help us. He was too concerned with election interference! /s
“I’m the greatest of all time. Maybe greater even than Elvis . Because Elvis had a guitar. I don’t have a guitar. Elvis had a guitar. I don’t have the privilege of a guitar.”
that’s it. he has my vote. /s
yeah, soon they will “blur the lines” between immigrant and non-whites too
will it cover treatment for when a tech overlord decides to cut your hand on a whim?

snowballing
yeah, it is not snowballing, it is Network Effect. for the people who want to use a twitter-like social network, the value is in the many other people using it.
but, as you are doing, telling people to leave is the correct move. because for every person that the network loses, the network loses value for everyone (the network effect going in reverse)
that is true, we had to change administrators one time and it was not an easy process. my comment was mostly that the blanket statement of “politics in an apartment complex are worse that an HOA” is not true, it depends on the building and the HOA
Having lived both in buildings where my family owned one apartment, and houses where there was an HOA, i can tell you that the politics of the apartment building was not even close to how insne an HOA is. it was mostly taking about the budget, prioritizing repairs, and security
So when Biden and the party said 50 was enough to do stuff…
The Inflation Reduction Act passed only because of that extra senator. So it was true. 50 is good enough to do stuff. 50 is not good enough to do everything, only as progressive as the least progressive “democract” (which at the time were Manchin and Sinema
honestly, even if the house is turned in november and they vote to impeach them, the next step is trial at the senate. it requires 2/3 of the votes, so they won’t get convicted and removed
wow, how lucky we are that the ultimate deciders on litigation are not a bunch of partisans hacks, right?
