This is what happens when we have kings in the White House issuing decrees. A new king comes in and wipes out the decrees from the old king.

As disastrous as this sounds, the short term impact will be minimal. Companies are not going to invest in new capability without having a stable regulatory environment. If Dems lose big in Nov '26, they might then...but if Dems win big, expect companies to do nothing knowing that in 2028 the Endangerment Finding will be back and even more dire.

At the end of the day, Congress should be legislating these types of regulations and not leaving it up the current person occupying the White House. They need to get it together and do their job...or maybe "We the People" need to start doing our job instead of electing politicians that care more about their own power than they do about the future of America.

Should drop worldwide temperatures by 10-20 degrees. Will also help depopulate and deindustrialize the world a bit. It's a win/win.

The concern is that one company will get AI right and eat the market, so everyone in that market has to roll the AI dice or else get left behind.

I just realize that years of watching tiktok, youtube shorts and facebook reels has deadend my brain and I can't focus on anything longer than 30 seconds. Oh well.

I had never heard of Anna's Library, now a whole new world of books has opened up to me! Thanks to the folks bringing the lawsuit.

The reason they don't have the money is because of all the things they buy on credit. Sure, life might suck for 6 months, a year or two, but once you get over that hump of financing everything it gets so much better. Stop paying with credit, it costs you more money.

It does, but it has a cost and that cost is your future income.
If I buy something now for $1,000 and I pay a 20% APY over the course of 5 years. So initially I only have to pay $26.49/mo and I get something worth $1,000. However, at the end of five years I've spent $1,589.63. So, yes I did just pluck $1k out of thin air for me to buy something, but now I'm gonna pay almost $600 over the next five year.

If I keep doing that I keep committing my future earnings and reduce what I can spend later. That $50k car, that $600,000 house. That $15,000 vacation. It all adds up and suddenly you run out of money because everything is committed to monthly payments.

It's a bit like where our federal government is right now. Their biggest expense is interest and it's only going to get bigger.

"Instead, he said, it could run fewer, fuller flights with higher ticket prices. He said many flights were only taken because they were so cheap: “We know that a lot of air transport demand is induced. If you increase the cost, people would just choose a different type of holiday.”

The goal is to make it so only the wealthy can enjoy the world and we are all kept in our little corner.

Truth. First come, first served.

That would be called a raid, not an invasion.

Even in a capitalist society, the government is no match for the public sector. The federal government controls $7 TRILLION in spending a year. There isn't a single corporation in the WORLD that even does a trillion in revenue a year. With Walmart and Amazon coming closest at almost $700 billion. There are only four companies in the WORLD with more than one million employees (Walmart, Amazon, State Grid Corporation of China and China National Petroleum Corporation). The US Government has 5 million direct employees (Federal, Military, USPS) and if you expanded it to contractors it is probably closer to 10 million.

Long story short, if you want power, money and control, the US government is the place to get it...not the private sector.

Your definition is a bit circular.

Invasion - what someone does when they invade

Let's look up what it means to invade.
Invade - (of an armed force or its commander) enter (a country or region) so as to subjugate or occupy it. "it was all part of a grander French plan to invade Ireland"

The key difference between a military invasion and a raid is the intent regarding territory: an invasion aims to capture and hold ground, while a raid involves entering enemy territory for a specific purpose and then quickly withdrawing.

The US raided Venezuela for the purpose of capturing Maduro. We did not invade Venezuela with the intent of making it the 53rd state (after Canada and Greenland).

It's not reached the education system. My kid is struggling though A Tale of Two Cities right now so I'm of two opinions. The stories that schools assign totally suck. That said, you gotta learn how to grind through the suck.

Right, you get it back when you bring your trash down. Seems simple.
