Isn’t a crash screen the last place you should your branding?

Did the USD deflate significantly between 2012 and 2016? Your gold based metric says yes.

The US is saying 3.4% because inflation is based on a consumer price index. It’s not a good metric because it doesn’t account for housing, education, healthcare and most other major expenses.

However, gold is an awful metric for the value of the currency. No single product can be a good metric alone. And gold is famously effected by speculation. People buy gold when the future of the currency seems uncertain.

The main difference between trump and every other president is that trump doesn’t know not to say the quiet part out loud. Most presidents are good at discretion, as most federal policies are monstrous.

Trump lead stadiums full of people in chants of, “build that wall,” in contrast to obama and biden who quietly maintained the barriers on the southern boarder. Same policy different messaging.

Gaza will be no different. Trump enthusiastically supports the genocide, whereas biden criticizes and puts on a show like he’s putting pressure on isreal, while still supporting them entirely. Same policy, different messaging.

I would love to be proven wrong, but expierence says otherwise.

Google has literally deployed crypomining malware through adsence. They don’t check ad code before deploying it.

That’s a strange response when they claim they don’t recognize the court.

Either sign on to the agreement and file a motion in opposition, or refuse to recognize the court and ignore it, like a responsible adult.

They are acting like a baby having a temper tantrum. Grow up.

Democracy relies on elections actually being fair. Questioning the process is the only way to make things fair, and the process being robust in the face of questions demonstrates it.

This idea that elections are unquestionabe is genuinely dangerous.

It is not treason to question the results of an election. It is not sedition to contest an election. If there is evidence that an election not handled correctly in a way that is sufficient to change the outcome, those with a stake in the outcome should not accept it.

This idea that it is a high crime to question an election is genuinely dangerous. And it is especially bad coming from democrats, because tactics like voter suppression disproportionately benefit republicans.

No one should accept an unrepresentative election.

Many people say many things. Uninformed takes from randos on the internet shouldn’t be taken seriously and responded to by government officials, regardless of nationality.

If the crash were caused by a mechanical problem, the embargo didn’t cause it. It would be much more the fault of the iranian maintance agency who let the helicopter fly despite its issues. If critical parts are unavailable, the safe choice is to ground the helicopter.

We can’t be sure until more is known, but this seems much more likely to be controlled flight into terrain. It was foggy in the mountains. Crashes like this do happen even in the US.

Long distance 747 flighs usually take off above the maximum landng weight. They need to get rid of the fuel before landing, but the 400 has the ability to dump fuel.

The engine wasn’t on fire. The engine had a surge on takeoff. They would have shut the engine off as it might have been damaged, but the plane was not on fire. They would have landed much sooner if it was.

Many articles describe engine surges with language that, while not technically a lie, is written to make readers conclude that the airplane is actually on fire.

This is another article that claimed a jet engine burst into flames, when all that happened was an engine surge. The engine didn’t catch fire, the engine did the jet version of a backfire, and only once during the takeoff roll.

The country exists because of us support. All of their neighbors hate them. Cutting off all military aid would be crippling, not something that could be ignored.

The us has a ton of leverage without a coup or invasion. Better to start with that.

That is not a reasonable first step.

Biden has paused and threatened to stop weapons shipments, but those only ever included offensive weapons.

They have a defensive anti-rocket system that requires regular shipments from the US. Biden never threatened to cut those supplies off, nor has he threatened to cut off any of the other aid they receive.

Stopping all weapons shipments would change their behavior. Better thing to try instead.

All auto manufacturers put spyware in their cars now. This isn’t a china problem, this is an everyone problem. We need anti-spyware laws that apply to everyone.

The US subsidizes american car companies too. Pot calling the kettle and all.

I still don’t know what a preposition even is. What are they even for?

Oxenfree is an adventure game that takes place on an island off the coast of northern Oregon. Good little game that tells its story in about 5 hours.

The cops are not students. They should not be attending student protests.

No not that far back

Light theme used to be the only theme. People now need dark themes because they’re eyes are too week from all the worke.
