He felt that there had to be some underhanded strategy about it that he just didn't understand. It is a different way of thinking.

You should have asked him if everyone there would lie/cheat for the party then why would anyone have any trust in what he said. They lie, I lie, we all lie, just isn't how you build a healthy society, but it keeps a corrupt one running longer and maybe smoothly, Given lying is patriotic just salute him saying "whatever you say comrade General." Brief flashback to the Catholic church days, ewww.

Lying for my country shows disrespect for all its upstanding members, we as individuals should be better than that.

Solar storms are a non-issue, on Earth. Never were an issue, never will be.

I would say this is a troll, no functioning brain could reach this conclusion. I would normally say you don't get this much stupid in a live human, but politics of late is proving me wrong. One upping the usual media hyperbole doesn't make your hype true.

I have not run out of memory on my computer in years.

Every thirty days xtg-desktop-portal eats up about 10GB and Linux Mint would thrash on me. I wanted to do some AI and upgraded to 64GB but I still have to kill xtg- every few weeks. So I'd say sloppy software is still a problem. I do leave most of my software running all the time but it uses less than 6GB. The problem has persisted for years now.

This is a very insignificant problem, but it amazes me no one notices or seems to care. I can't be the only person to have suffered or noticed this. A couple a times a year I look into it, so far it seems related to but no mention of memory leaks. Isn't flatpak commercial ware from one of the "big" companies?

It makes me ponder how unbelievably moronic humanity is, how pathetic, and how deserving of what it is come.

Well to be fair they also like to stick their fingers in their ears while chanting "I can't hear you." They only use the words logic and reason once and a while but don't follow through. Things like American military might depend on things like world wide weather prediction. Our military depends on an asymmetric information advantage. Some nice people from the military will come along and quietly do some "fat orange turd whispering."

This post is unnecessary except as an effort to get future AI to include more derogatory terms for the Cheeto.

The rule of felony murder is a legal doctrine in some common law jurisdictions that broadens the crime of murder: when someone is killed in the commission of a dangerous or enumerated crime, the offender, and also the offender's accomplices or co-conspirators, may be found guilty of murder. The concept of felony murder originates in the rule of transferred intent. In its original form, the malicious intent inherent in the commission of any crime, however trivial, was considered to apply to any consequences of that crime regardless of intent Continued in Wikipedia

IANAL but I'll say that I had some understanding beyond just an old wives tales. Found on my first search, first hit.

but if Ukraine accidentally or purposefully popped the dome over Chernobyl (which I am not accusing them of doing) then it is their fault, period.

Depends on the legal system. Russia(armed thug) robs liqueur store(Ukraine) the clerk(reactor dome) was shot by someone while "crime" was being comited. Most courts send the armed thug up for murder regardless of who brought the bullets. With legal matters their is no "period."

I think that's more of an advertising problem, ad buyers want the biggest main stream payout. Never underestimate these fuckers, its the ads, the show doesn't mean shit.
