I can understand this. Ai will respond to what you say. Not what it THINKS you say.

That’s an interesting way of doing sanctions. What’s worse? Cutting them off completely, or changing business practices to ensure you still get their money, but they don’t get the product?

How horrible for this woman. Has a global movement focused on her being a ‘man’ despite being a woman

I guess if you deny a country entry into the Olympics based on genocide and apartheid it’s antisemitic

It’s less the people and more the trade routes and resources. Some would argue the most important in the world

And the US has been doing the same for Israel

How is a state that’s largely funded by another state not a proxy for the bigger state? It’s not a Israel Iran proxy war. It’s a us Iran proxy war

In it’s ‘war against Hamas’ Israel has now bombed 3 countries that has no Hamas

Good advice. It’s also good to have clear boundaries set up. The ideal. The what you expect, and the non negotiable. Start with the ideal. Expecting to get pushed towards what you expect. Never budge on the nonnegotiable.

That’s ridiculously complicated. To have an informed opinion on the us government you need a doctorate in bureaucracy

That’s interesting. If you read the PDA in march 2023, it sounds like the delays have been because of inventory and not because of anything else. That’s not a narrative I’ve heard before

I’ve been using the ISW map which is very similar to the Wikipedia one. I never thought to look up the map on Wikipedia. I think a lot of people forget that a country is just a collection of people. Killing them off isn’t a way to save the country

Potatoes are great from an energy input position, but if you were doing this without potatoes and your neighbor was doing just potatoes, I think that might be enough for both.

I’ve switched to frozen vegetables for the same reason. The way I normally cook, it doesn’t make an appreciable difference to me, and I don’t have a crisper that’s filled with a moldy who knows what from however long ago that was.

I’ve gotten blueberries from Costco that went moldy the day after. I’ve never had a serious issue with frozen food going bad

What kind of asshole did that facial restructuring? We know the Neanderthal did art. Why does his hair look like that? With some crazy grin? Looks like a brain dead person on life support at a hospital that’s been failing inspections. We have every reason to think they valued beauty. Why isn’t this guy put up in his finest buckskin? Maybe with some jewelry.

Elons got some crazy brain rot. Even a lot of his SciFi colonize Mars ideas are terribly out of date.

The cost was significant though. It’s not like Israel can afford to do that often.

Last year around this time Russia was advancing every day by the 10s of meters. Now some advances are 1-2 km.

The Ukrainians announcing this means things are a lot more dire than what we’ve been led to believe.

‘200km on either side’ 400km total.

The US needs an extreme clean up in the government. Unfortunately, it’s going to be harder to do every election that it doesn’t happen
