SHE GAIND TWO VOTES BUT HE GAINED 92, HOPE IS POSSIBEL

Literally impossible to get a vote difference that insignificant counted accurately to that precision. This is madness.

Edit: or the election conducted or votes collected, for that matter

AryJeay tweets fresh footage of Iranian weapons in flight from Naya’s feed

US attack kills three Indian sailors on Palau-flagged tanker, MT Settebello (Dropsite tweet)

CENTCOM said a U.S. aircraft fired precision munitions into the ship’s engine room late June 9 after the crew “repeatedly failed to comply” with American instructions, claiming the tanker was carrying Iranian oil in violation of its blockade. CENTCOM said it has similarly disabled eight vessels since the U.S. blockade began April 13.

Aww, tanks

MANUFACTURE NEW WEAPONS WITH WHAT FUCKING RESOURCES

I played Red Alert and liked the Kirov (serious)

No, but they can pretend they do when it’s politically expedient

My understanding (uninformed) is that licensing and consensus are extremely difficult given the distributed community of contributors, patchwork history, and lack of requirement for a consistent internal narrative.

With backrooms, there were a few random posts on different internet boards, not a centralized, established repository (so no licensing tied to any of the posts). Then a dude makes YouTube videos that are obviously his own intellectual property, and a company goes “hey wanna make a real Hollywood movie?”

With SCP, there’s two decades of different authors putting their own spin on things. Most of the video games with obvious SCP ties (Control, Abiotic factor, Lethal Company) presumably started with “SCP is pretty cool, let’s make a game”…“oh we’d have to get permission from all these authors, and we’d have to pick and choose which storylines we like and deconflict them, and we wouldn’t be able to own and develop and shape our series without consulting them, and we wouldn’t even own any IP”…“hey let’s make an SCP-like game and maybe message one or two authors we like for ideas and lore”.

There is SCP: Containment Breach but that was much earlier in the site’s history and it’s free with creative commons licensing.

My take is it’s mostly about the US maintaining the petrodollar’s hold on the world’s economies, and the usefulness of Israel in that region is just part of that

I think we’re more likely to see gas staying sub-$5 and there just not being any, with the us taxpayer bailing out the industry.

Major failure of liberal economics.

Some Shell or Exxon financial officer once said, “the world will never run out of oil because it would become too expensive” which just feels like such an end of history take.

“forgive” rent for buildings they didn’t actually own or maintain
