It isn't just el Bunko's ties to Ellison and his sprog who owns Paramount/Skydance (the firm that fired Stephen Colbert on the ground that el Bunko ordered them to). Paramount/Skydance is backed by Jared Kushner and Gulf Arab oil money. The opportunities for el Bunko to accept "tribute" from this "deal" are nearly endless.
As always when el Bunko is involved, look for the trail of bread crumbs back to his pockets.
That $100 would be better spent on probes to planets, not attempting to cram people into a tin can and sending it to Mars....unless.....if they promise to cram Elmo in, then I might support it.
At least $100 Billion. The tariffs have raised "As of August 2025, tariff revenues since January 2025 totaled $149 billion" (https://www.piie.com/research/piie-charts/2025/trumps-tariff-revenue-tracker-how-much-us-collecting-which-imports-are).
This is much less than la Presidenta's claim of $22 Trillion (last we heard, inflation tends to raise his estimate week after week). For comparison, the entire U.S. GDP for 2024 is $29.184 trillion (https://tradingeconomics.com/united-states/gdp). We cannot trust any numbers put out by la Presidenta's regime, they are likely "massaged".

If you wouldn't allow children to play in waste effluent from a 1960s nuclear power plant
It was good enough for us!
Forget the kids, they don't vote so they can be safely trod upon. Who cares what their experiences are.
But seriously, what about the not-kids? Australian adults, are you having to show your ID when you get a DHCP lease? Do a lot of websites who didn't have mandatory logins, now have 'em?
How does it work, and what has changed for you?
Europe is now eyeing similar bans, as well as proposals for a late-night "curfew", curbs on addictive features, and an EU-wide age verification app.
LATE-NIGHT CURFEW?!
If Europe isn't careful, they're going to teach a generation of kids that it's ok to do their FTPing during business hours.
Everywhere you look you only see your enemies, a few people have tries to lead you to a normal mode of thinking, but I always say: you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink.
P.S. I'm not a leftist, but thanks for playing.
To watch your dogs a wifi device is OK but if real security is a concern understand that home invasion gangs use ~10W wifi jammers as standard practice now.
Amcrest supports RTSP pull and SFTP push which is handy.
K-12 is for core material kids need to either survive life post graduation or as the platform upon which a higher education is built.
Not really. One glance at a modern (post-mid-1950) curriculum will show you that.
At no point do they need to know the 6372 fake genders or about the fake inequality that isn't going on that people like you push.
I hope they can still teach students about a strawman argument.
You live in the most free and open minded era in human history and cry how you can't push your agenda on kids in your state run prison and call it oppression. Ridiculous.
Democracy and freedom isn't free. You have to fight for it every day. The religious right wants to take away my human rights and your human rights, and if you want to carry water for them then be prepared to serve underneath them on day.
I voted to have people like you shutdown in the presence of children who legally can't escape your grasp. Go fund some Google ads or something if you want to push your crap. You do not get to use my tax dollars for it.
Free forum is a free soapbox. I couldn't give two shits about your insufferable opinion of other people's opinions. But I think you already know that, other Slashdotters are certainly communicated a similar sentiment to you before.
Pokemon cards are fun, but the real money is in healthcare. Imagine if I could buy up all the knee surgeries and sell them to millennials in 20 years. (Sorry, I don't accept Pokemon cards as payment)
Criticism of capitalism is communism, and communism is treason.
If I can buy 1.5-2 million of those cheap and set two thirds of them on fire then they become far more rare. That will flush more of the collection onto the market and I will buy those too, and burn them as well.
We're no longer allowed to discuss gender identity or systemic inequality in US schools, so there are worse offenses when it comes to free speech rights. (A right that very few countries recognize)
Take a number, in whatever representation form you wish, let's say it's a typical binary (base-2) representation of a positive integer. Add any value to it infinitely, 1 or billions, I don't care. Every state transition from 0 to 1 or 1 to 0 takes a finite amount of energy. And every state takes physical space to store and represent (such as as an electric charge). You now need an infinite amount of energy and infinite amount of space. But don't worry, your machine won't survive that long as it will quickly take more energy to flip the bits than you can concentrate in an area of space. Your counting register turns into plasma even before that.
It is wrong always, everywhere and for everyone to believe anything upon insufficient evidence. - W. K. Clifford, British philosopher, circa 1876
