Same US will probably report ZERO CO2 emissions, because turned off all sensors

Evil triumphs when good men do nothing

Through DOGE, they have enacted much of the 2025 plan by drastically over-cutting headcount, so they can fill with partisans with no Congressional or Court oversight.

By attacking Educational Institutions yelling DEI DEI, they are ending racial equity efforts, another Project 2025 goal

But, hey just read this link to learn about it for yourself , if we sit back and wait for the "normal process" to self correct. it will be too late.

OMG, subversive organization is denying the actions taken by another at their bidding????

Call Machiavelli, I don't think even the Medici were so cunning /s

They were and this is a very worn playbook.

The real problem is that so many Americans are unaware of this and have become willing participants

The CHIPS Acts was passed by Congress and Signed by Biden with the intent of boosting U.S. semiconductor and high-tech manufacturing, strengthening domestic supply chains, and enhancing national security, thereby keeping critical technology production on U.S. soil. The act provides nearly $53 billion in funding for semiconductor manufacturing, research, and development, alongside investments in other critical technology areas like artificial intelligence and quantum computing.

Buying stakes in US companies and putting the administration into the position to create winners of losers was not part of it

Trump is STEALING from all Americans in order to create power and profits for a small group that is writing his game plan

Again I would suggest that anybody interested in living in a Democracy should read up on the Heritage Foundation and their Project 2025 that trump is following

The Heritage Foundation is running the show now, Trump is just their paid spokesman

They have profited from every stock market fall trump has induced, and they will use DOGEs emptying government agencies of seasoned employees, to replace them with Heritage Foundation pawns when the positions need to be filled again

Heritage Foundation is planning for the 4th Reich, here in America and it is time for all Americans to wake the fuck up and stop them

Yeah buddy, don't forget that spending cash is a form of free speech, that cannot be hindered (or even tracked apparently)

Citizens United is a direct assault on the American Public, and we are seeing he results

That would be the TMobile MyLife app

In regards to Consent, this is given in almost all apps that users install on their phones, gathering this data from 2nd and 3rd parties, to the consumer-telco relationship this judgment rules, on is what Palantir, etc... do

I used to work in GIS in the 90's, and attended a presentation on processes for census counts that highlighted the difficulties in tracking some transitory populations

The solution that I offered was to give everybody a free cellphone (outrageous idea at the time), so you would know where they were and what they were up to every hour of the day

Some laughed, others agreed, almost twenty years later the Obama Phone brought it to fruition, to think that it is not happening with commercial carriers is just silly

The sheer power that this data gives groups like Palantir via exercises like Wired Magazine Tracking Every Visitor to Epstein Island demonstrates the potential for blackmailing public figures

I leave it as an exercise for the gentle reader to imagine the short and long term effects on Democracy as practiced in America

Yes, that is a summary of the first two lines I wrote

I think that beyond that, people would be interested in how to stop that, and my searches indicate that Metformin (which has been used effective in other life extension research with roundworms and mice) accomplishes that

I am on Metformin, and encourage others to do the same

Breaking the cells via injury, disease, or (in this case) senescence allows HMGB1 to spread causing a cascading inflammation response

In many ways, an inflammation response is useful such as reducing blood loss or reacting to an infection

However, inflammation, over the long run, causes many conditions that can reduce lifespan

I skimmed the paper in Metabolism and did a search on how to reduce intra-cellular HMBG1 release and got to this point: Metformin can inhibit nuclear HMGB1 translocation to the cytosol, retaining HMGB1 in the nucleus and downregulating its extracellular activity.

BANG! Stay on your Metformin, it's for more than just high blood sugar

China is a techno-authoritarian regime, it stopped being socialist a long time ago when they allowed privately owned businesses to flourish

What Trump is doing by taking stakes in private industry is more of a form or Corporate Fascism than Socialism, since the government is granting favors, and picking winners and losers rather than owning anything other than a stake they can profit from and use to control the markets

Yes, I worked at an enterprise that deployed all their desktop apps on Citrix running off of a Xen hypervisor... while we did expend Windows licenses, it was all supported by Linux... so, I am intentionally blurring the lines.

Thanks for playing along!

The Onion is a look back at humor from before our propaganda driven post-truth existence

You _do_ realize that most virtualization is running under Linux... yes?
