He’ll not be remembered kindly by history for this. Even if he was objectively decent president.

He might consider it a badge of honor instead.

Not a single peep about false positives.

I’m sure it won’t be abused though. And if anyone does complain, just get their electronics seized and checked, because they must be hiding something!

It saddens me to realize all those poor devils had as much right as I do to a prosperous life. And I’m nowhere near a prosperous life, but still miles ahead of these victims - through absolutely no action or value of my own, only sheer random chance in the birth lottery.

This world is fucked in so many ways. Probably every single one if you overanalyze the situation.

As opposed to the ones we’re fighting, we have to spend the grand majority of our time just trying to stay alive.

These people have servants to wait on their every need. They have seas of time (and capital) while we run ourselves ragged just to stay afloat.

That was grade A projection if I ever saw any.

Et tu, Barney?

Ahh, if it isn’t like that.

It’s a calling card. Everyone knows what happened, not a single soul will comment on it. Unless they fancy being the next up for flight lessons.

Seems rather bulky for a ring also. I wonder if it snags on a lot of things while using your hands normally.

Trump was never under the impression that anyone is his friend. All his relationships, including to his wife and biological children, are transactional.

Russia has dirt on him and has for a loooong time. That’s why Putin doesn’t need to suck his dick like the rest of the world’s wannabe dictators do.

Never thought I’d see the end of US military hegemony in my lifetime. But this makes it that much more likely.

This already happened. People looking up CPR instructions because a loved one is dying, only to be met with three unskippable ads.

Goodbye Meemaw.

Fuck, I get about a 150€ for being on call for a week. I’m getting ripped off.

As an aside, there is a theory called the “bicameral mind” which posits that this internal dialogue is the source of religion. In ancient or rather even prehistoric times, it’s theorized that people started separating themselves from the voices in their heads in a spiritual way and this gave rise to the concept of a “God”.

Far from proven but interesting nonetheless.

You can watch pirated movies in a virtual theatre in VR. It’s quite impressive really.

How does this explain that the world is essentially ruled by ruthless billionnaires? The strategies referenced may be vindicated, but that doesn’t preclude them from being eclipsed by another, even greater strategy, that of total domination.

Or is anyone going to tell me straight-faced that all those people are great examples of our species and should be revered? None of them got where they are by playing nice.

Just imagine how many deaths could have been prevented Muskrat hadn’t interfered… dozens of people’s lives are directly on his head. Not that he’ll care or even notice…

The reason you mean is quantum tunneling. Essentially, at that small a scale an electron can ‘teleport’ outside of the system, which is obviously a big nono for computing.

Everyone driving a Tesla: “I’m so important and successful, look at all the peasants turning green with envy”. Peasants: “You couldn’t pay me to be a test crash dummy in one of daddy Elon’s death mobiles.”
