Hmm, considering how cheap these are to make (relatively speaking) could it make a good decoy? Basically set a bunch of these up in random places away from anything important with remote on switches and when missiles start flying power them up one at a time. They’re more expensive than the anti-missile drones (those are supposedly about $1000 a piece) but they might be more effective in their own way.
Not a legal argument but there is at least one state that already floated the idea of undermining the whole thing by refusing to publish their vote totals until all the electors are gathered to vote thereby preventing the popular vote from being determined ahead of time.
Not yet, but it’s getting closer to actually happening. It is at a minimum not a bad thing.
Not that it really matters much, nearly every one of them that has been released and/or pardoned has gone on to get arrested again shortly after. I’m sure they’ll all be back in jail real soon.
It should be noted that they absolutely must be taken under medical supervision. If not taken correctly or in rare cases even when taken correctly they can have very dangerous side effects up to organ failure and death. They’re usually safe but at a minimum during initial usage need to be monitored for side effects.
All that said yes, for people that need these drugs it really sucks that they’re trying to make it harder to get them. It’s pretty telling that they’re targeting programs that primarily benefit the poor for these cuts.
It’s probably worth pointing out as well for people that are unfamiliar with these drugs they are not strictly speaking “weight loss” drugs, rather they’re appetite suppressors. They make you feel less hungry and they also block the reward feedback when you eat so eating food is less “satisfying” which further helps control excess eating. The only dangerous part of these drugs is that they also partially (or rarely fully) paralyze your GI tract which can lead to various complications, particularly if you continue eating at the rate you did prior to starting the drug.
I did that with Windows 10. I still have that partition but I haven’t booted it in years. I’ll probably overwrite it with something more useful one of these days.
I dream that someday there will be a simple piece of OSS that can control all this RGB crap. We’ve very nearly arrived at a single universal RGB header (not quite, but it’s down to 2 major common ones, and one of two oddball proprietary one offs), but the software side of things is still an absolute clusterfuck. At least in the embedded space there’s only a couple standard control protocols.
RFK was always a wildcard. He’s a weird mix of surprisingly reasonable ideas with complete and utter insanity and there’s no real rhyme or reason behind it. In a way it’s kind of refreshing dealing with plain old insanity compared to the usual MAGA crowd that very blatantly adjust their stances to match their prejudices and whatever is most profitable for them at the time.
It’s going to be interesting to see what happens when the grifter wing of MAGA runs face first into the nutter wing because I really have no clue which one comes out on top in that fight. My guess is that the grifters win since it will likely come down to whoever Trump decides to back and he’ll always go with a grifter over anyone else.
