Ears almost freak me out more. We can instantly, with no thought, tell where a sound is coming from, to a high resolution. Even behind us! All based on how fast and loud the signal hits our ears at different times. The speed of sound is right there with a slightly slow bullet. We can differentiate the “ping time” between one side of our skull on the other. Fuck me that’s wild!

Speaking of bullets, I can pick up the delay between firing something slow like a .45 or .22 and hitting a target a mere 40’ away. How?!

That’s off a laser printer.

Sounds like the pilots killed the fuel, and did not mean to do so. Having watched the video, and being totally ignorant of this sort of thing, that makes sense of what I saw.

I’m not trusting any report until I have had heard from Admiral Cloudberg. If you’re not familiar, plane crash investigation is what he does. He’s completely unbiased and seems to be the expert, at least for us layman.

You speak to my point very well!

The United States needs a department like ICE, every country does, but the current iteration is forever poisoned. People keep calling them Gestapo, but I think Brown Shirts is more on the nose.

I’d like to point out how wrong I was about all this. For years I had commented saying that modern Brown Shorts would rise organically from local MAGA groups, then come together under a federal banner of some sort. I never foresaw the Trump admin short cutting that clumsy method and directly utilizing an existing federal department.

Y’all downvoting OP for laying out the methodology.

Pretty sure I’ve read that it is, but the issue here is retesting employees that are already onboard.

You don’t even have to stretch by talking about ex-cons, it’s worse, it’s just normal people:

Grok fucking nailed it. And everything stated is verifiable with almost no effort.

I feel sorry for Europeans who aren’t geared for this. Couple of years ago a monster heat dome sat on the Pacific Northwest. Many of my coworkers lived in and around Seattle and were suffering the lack of AC. My brain can’t imagine living without.

Want to solve the evil landlord problem? These are the evil landlords, not some dude with a few houses to rent. Blocking these sales is one of the no-brainer solutions we need, but fuck no, our politicians are bought out.

Life sciences are where this sort of thing will shine.

So, to my fellow Americans in NYC, how are those gun laws working out? That’s a smartass question, but more seriously, what will you do when the Gestapo comes rolling down Flatbush Avenue?

I’ll never find it again, but a few years ago jihadis went rampaging down the streets in Iran, randomly shooting into apartment blocks. All I could think was, “At least that can’t happen here.”

OK, Trump beat Harris by 14% points. That makes all 31 million Texans hateful bigots. Imagine if I said the same of any other group. I’d be banned of the entire site if I said, Jews, blacks, LGBT, women, whatever are a bunch of X.

Looked into beekeeping on and off and varroa mites are a top consideration in any source I’ve read.

Trump, and seemingly many commenters on lemmy, has yet to figure out that Putin can’t stop this war. Russia’s wartime economy would collapse overnight, even if all sanctions were instantly lifted. Just like Netanyahu, ending the war would be political, and likely literal, suicide.

65% of that county (Bexar) voted for Biden. You were saying?

Get the water!

Read that post right before this one. Small world.

Voodoo! I had no idea.
