It’s how we’ve reacted to their aggression so far.

The United States really does not want to get into a direct conflict with Russia. There’s no question that we’d win any kind of conventional conflict but the American people have no desire for another land war in Europe. We’ve been there and done that, twice, and while I think we would support our European cousins for a 3rd go around getting support for it would require that the Europeans commit themselves first.

On a tangent but speaking frankly Europe as a whole needs to plan for dwindling support from the United States. Regardless of who wins the 2024 US elections the voting demographics of the United States are changing fast. There are literally tens of millions of current and near future immigrants from all over the world who will never care about European security as much as the current voters do. Why would they? Why should they?

The average immigrant from Asia or Latin America will not have ancestral ties to Europe and as their impact on US politics grows it’s inevitable that US support for European shenanigans will dwindle. As voters they will push the US Government to care far more about what’s happening in India, Mexico, Guatemala, Venezuela, and various countries on the African continent.

This is going to happen even if the United States elects nothing but Progressive Politicians for the next 10 election cycles and Europe needs to prepare for it.

Homes are wildly unaffordable for nearly everybody! In the last decade literally hundreds of homes have been built in my town that sell for over $500,000. I want to know who the hell is buying them and how the hell they are affording them!

I have no idea how my son, who is 24, is going to buy a home of his own and at this point I’m wondering if I should sell my current place for a compound with enough space that I can turn into a multi-generational place so I can leave it to him and his family when my wife and I die.

This type of nonsense is happening everywhere online. Real people who are organically participating will almost always engage on a wide variety of topics and issues; any social media account on any network that spends the majority of it’s time focused on a single politicized issue or viewpoint can be assumed to be a sock puppet or a shill.

In short any account that hyper-focus on a single issue or viewpoint for more than a day or two is likely not organic and if it is organic then it’s likely toxic; either way you should avoid them.

American isn’t buying Iran’s bombs and there’s no amount of hysterical hand waving you can do to get over that fact.

A man named “Sidi Mohamed Abdallahi” starts shooting a Jewish man while shouting “Allahu akbar!”.

Nope, the motivation for this attack is a mystery. We’ll just never know why he did it.

Its happening with increasing regularity even in the lower 48. Here’s one from Wyoming.

More than a few high profile anti-gun people have owned firearms. Diane Feinstein comes to mind as another example.

ALL of the super wealthy anti-gun people, like Michael Bloomberg, have no issue being protected by people with firearms.

It’s not the guns that they’re against. They’re against them being owned by peasants regular people.

Or maybe the entire god damned world doesn’t make every god damned decision based on the US Election? Just sayin’…

Sure and living in Wyoming I’ve seen that happen often enough right in front of me but the more I watch this video the more I want to know how that deer GOT there.

I can see a small shrub in the dark off the (right) side of the road but somehow you can’t see the deer enter the lane from either the right or left. The car in front of the Tesla is maybe 40 feet past the deer at the start of the video (watch the reflector posts) but somehow that car had no reaction to the deer standing in the middle of the lane?!

Is there a longer video anywhere? Looking closely I have to wonder where the hell did that deer come from?

I have the same question. If you watch the video closely the deer is located a few feet before the 2nd reflector post you see at the start of the video. At that point in time the car in front is maybe 20’ beyond the post which means they should have encountered the deer within the last 30-40 feet but there was no reaction visible.

You can also see both the left and right sides of the road at the reflector well before the deer is visible, you can even make out a small shrub off the road on the right, and but somehow can’t see the deer enter the road from either side?!

It’s like the thing just teleported into the middle of the lane.

The more I watch this the more suspicious I am that the video was edited.

Oh? Which test flight demonstrated that?

Which is pretty damn sad and proves what every US President since Clinton said regarding Europe’s staggeringly myopic lack of military funding.

Yawn. Got anything to add to the conversation aside from ad hominem?

That’s what THIS fight is about. Qualcomm bought Nuvia and in a nutshell they believe that they acquired Nuvia’s ARM license with that purchase, now they’re starting to sell chip designs that were done by Nuvia using their ARM license. ARM disagrees that Nuvia’s license transferred to Qualcomm and so here we are.

The reason ARM is freaking out about this is because ARM sells functional designs and that’s what Qualcomm is starting to do with what they bought from Nuvia. Historically ARM has sold designs and Qualcomm sold chips but now ARM wants to start selling chips and Qualcomm wants to start selling designs.

ARM may still be the good guy but they are not what / who they used to be. Softbank, the Japanese owner of ARM, has been losing its ass on tech investments and they want $$$. This is why ARM did their IPO last fall.

Both ARM and Qualcomm now have the same fiscal pressures so they’re going to start acting in a similar fashion.

Eh, nobody is going to get banned (at least not from my instance) as long as it stays inbounds.

There are well understood reasons why sexual abusers cluster into certain jobs, such as priests, but they are commonly found all over the world in every social, political, and economic class. The truth is that for for every Jerry Sandusky or Vince McMahon you hear about there’s 100, or even 1000, non-famous people that you don’t hear about.

What is the deal with all these damn rapists.

The sexual abuse of children is vastly more common than many people want to believe. It happens all over the world and it isn’t confined to any particular group or class.

Odds are good it’s using facebook or some other cancer to perform this evil.

You really need to read the entire article. Turning off your WiFi and deleting Facebook isn’t going to fix this.

ARM is mad because Qualcomm bought Nuvia (which had their own ARM license) and then started using Nuvia’s designs. ARM says that Qualcomm needs to renegotiate the license in order to use those designs.

Normally ARM and Qualcomm would handle this fairly smoothly, the reason its not happening this time is because ARM and Qualcomm both have growth plans that are increasingly making them direct competitors.

Yes, absolutely related. This fight started because Qualcomm bought Nuvia and started using their designs (and their ARM license for those designs). This recent escalation is almost certainly because Qualcomm is about to bring Oryon, which was designed by Nuvia, to smartphones.

That’s a big part of what’s going on. ARM is trying to move into Qualcomm’s traditional business while Qualcomm is trying to move in ARM’s traditional business.

"Under Chief Executive Officer Rene Haas, Arm has shifted to offering more complete designs — ones that companies can take directly to contract manufacturers. Haas believes that his company, still majority owned by Japan’s SoftBank Group Corp., should be rewarded more for the engineering work it does. That shift encroaches on the business of Arm’s traditional customers, like Qualcomm, who use Arm’s technology in their own final chip designs.

Meanwhile, under CEO Cristiano Amon, Qualcomm is moving away from using Arm designs and is prioritizing its own work, something that potentially makes it a less lucrative customer for Arm. He’s also expanding into new areas, most notably computing, where Arm is making its own push. But the two companies’ technologies remain intertwined, and Qualcomm isn’t yet in a position to make a clean break from Arm."
