The EU takes consumer rights SERIOUSLY…

Why...did CNN do this

That goes for my trans adult friends too. When they come after you, they're coming after everyone who loves you.

Quantum Tunneling explainer graphic from https://www.andersoninstitute.com/quantum-tunneling.html: Quantum Tunneling is an evanescent wave coupling effect that occurs in quantum mechanics. The correct wavelength combined with the proper tunneling barrier makes it possible to pass signals faster than light, backwards in time. Quantum Tunneling Time Control In the diagram above light pulses consisting of waves of various frequencies are shot toward a 10 centimeter chamber containing cesium vapor. All information about the incoming pulse is contained in the leading edge of its waves. This information is all the cesium atoms need to replicate the pulse and send it out the other side. At the same time it is believed an opposite wave rebounds inside the chamber cancelling out the main part of the incoming pulse as it enters the chamber. By this time the new pulse, moving faster than the speed of light, has traveled about 60 feet beyond the chamber. Essentially the pulse has left the chamber before it finished entering, traveling backwards in time.

5 Stars, would hire again! I wanted a water pipe from my basement to my 2nd floor, and Quantum Plumbing did it without drilling through my ground floor.

Not to be too coarse, but it's for when your waves act like a particle

The biggest refinery in the Middle East, Ruwais processes over 900,000 barrels of oil a day. It's closed after a fire broke out from an Iranian drone attack. Iran just knocked out almost 1% of world daily oil consumption (slightly over 100 million barrels a day.)

US & Gulf petro states have used up YEARS of US production of $Ms anti-missile missiles to stop Iran's projectiles. It'll be years before we can restock.

If the US or a Gulf state acts up again, Iran can lob 10 $200K missiles and 100 $20K drones at local oil depots & tankers. $Bs economic damage.

Illinois will absolutely be pulling a self-own if this man wins.

The British public no longer as stoopid as Brexit champion & public racist Nigel Farage thought they were. Heck, the average Brit today probably smarter than Nigel Farage, at least on foreign & military policy.

Iran-US war could lead to the largest refugee crisis in decades, EU warns European Union Agency for Asylum joins the UN in sharing concerns about the long term consequences of the spiralling conflict

By "Afghanistan w oil" I mean:

• Huge refugee crisis for the Mideast & Europe

• Depopulated, w little developed nation economic activity & no public education

• Regions ruled by local religious extremists w guns

Israel bombing Iran's oil infrastructure. Wrecking Iran's long term economic & industrial capacity. Creating Afghanistan w oil.

Iran will continue strikes on Gulf petro facilities & oil tankers.

US just going along w Bibi's actions. This hurts Trump goal of Iran puppet regime selling cheap oil.

Trump joins grieving families during return of soldiers killed in war in the Middle East The dignified transfer, the return of remains of U.S. service members killed in action, is considered one of the most somber duties of any commander in chief.

CNBC: “As is protocol, Trump — wearing a blue suit, red tie and a white USA hat — did not speak during the transfer.”

CNBC implies it's always been official protocol for the President to wear a USA hat during the Dignified Transfer of slain soldiers.

Def agree we're in an even more corrupt Robber Baron Gilded Age.

I'd say they're pushing out informed small investors who demand respect, answers, good governance? CEOs like Elon LURV "meme stock" small investors who march lockstep with the communal whims of the manosphere.

This woman, US citizen living in Skokie, was detained at Ohare yesterday, taken to Broadview, then transferred to a detention facility in Wisconsin, now released. We know all this not because of DHS, who repeatedly denied that they even had her, but because her phone was pinging in those locations.

Ya know that debate? Must companies ONLY maximize “Shareholder Value,” or do they have a duty to employees, community, long term goals, etc?

For corporate giants based out of Delaware, SB21 says neither: CEOs like Elon can loot the company and small-time investors can't question those actions.

Thread. My dad was a US diplomat. Breaks my heart. “Whatever happens, even miraculous Venezuela-like stability in Iran and/or Cuba, the end of US diplomacy as we knew it weakens the US. Diplomacy is a tool of power, we had the best, and we blew it up deliberately.“

LLMs are not gaining consciousness. They are not showing symptoms of anxiety.

Anthropic’s CEO, on the other hand, I hope, is gaining consciousness and experiencing anxiety.

Yes, non-sentient AI spambot, I am definitely Leah Littman. And my New York Times best-selling book LAWLESS: How the Supreme Court Runs on Conservative Grievance, Fringe Theories, and Bad Vibes is in an early draft stage despite already being a NY Times best seller.

okay so this seems pretty clear. he knows what it is, he did it on purpose, he chose keeping it over his career with the Marines, if we know this then Susan Collins will also know it, it will 100% come up in the general, let's be done talking about this guy as a real candidate

if you're keeping score at home what's happening is this the department of war is running major combat operations in iran which may last just a few weeks maybe longer or maybe even forever and which are NOT a war but whose stated objective is unconditional surrender

Etymology From French grognard (“grumbler”). Pronunciation IPA(key): /ˈɡɹɔnjɑɹ/, /ˈɡɹoʊn.jɑɹd/, /ˈɡɹɑɡ.nɑɹd/ Noun grognard (plural grognards) 1. An old soldier. 2. (historical) A soldier of the original imperial guard that was created by Napoleon I in 1804 and that made the final French charge at Waterloo. 3. (games, slang) Someone who enjoys playing older war games or roleplaying games, or older versions of such games, when newer ones are available, and often complains frequently about newer games. "James is such a grognard: he only plays the original edition of Dungeons & Dragons." 4. (military) A soldier or military enthusiast who pays meticulous attention to rules, details, and traditions, often respected for their expertise in areas that others might overlook.

Grognard defined, via en.wiktionary.org/wiki/grognard That's me, but only usage #3.

Some pieces I still adore by the late DAT aka David Trampier. My favorite gaming artist ever. Despite his popularity he quit art in 1988, became a taxi driver, refused (high paying) private commissions, and passed away in 2014.
