My buddy for 17 years, since passed - Bailey (because he was a tabby with a belly the same color of Bailey’s Irish Cream.

My current littermates, brother and sister:

Girl: Willett Boy: Scout

Both named after bourbons - Willett and Smooth Ambler Old Scout.

Of course Obama did more drone strikes than Bush - drones were barely a thing during the Bush years. The technology only became practical, cost effective, and mass produced during Obama’s term.

Except the commercial aggregators have all started filtering the data of specific planes on request - you won’t find Elon’s or Swift’s ADSB data on popular sites/apps like FlightAware or Flightradar24. (I’m not familiar with PlaneLogger). Open source aggregators like OpenSky or ADSB Exchange will have them though, but the UIs of those sites are far less polished and have fewer features.

Those costs became salaries and paid engineers and skilled tradespeople, lawyers and financiers, auditors and test pilots, illustrators and modelors, janitors and security guards, truck drivers and inventory specialists, logisticians and mathmericians, scientists and metallurgists, flight doctors and software developers… and on, and on, and on - it may be one of the single biggest job creating programs in the USA in a Generation. That money also got routed into mutual funds and 401k’s and into the communities where all those people live and work. While there are certainly more noble and more effective uses for money, the F35 program has provided a living for a great many people.

Many long COVID infections are causing/caused significant damage to organs (https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11834749/). A vaccination isn’t going to reverse organ damage.

Volkswagen used forced labor from concentration camps. I don’t think there’s any way to argue that a company built upon human suffering isn’t evil - or at least wasn’t at the time.

The Autobahn was built using forced labor of re-education camps, prisoners of war, prison inmates, and Jews from concentration camps. If the Wright Brothers made the first powered flight in an aircraft built of human flesh from murdered victims, nobody sane would be celebrating their achievement.

There is NOTHING honorable about causing harm to others so you can have more for yourself.

This sounds like something Leslie Knope would call Ann Perkins.

A sealed casket is buoyant. If a cemetery is flooded, caskets, especially of the recently deceased with disturbed soil, are known to rise through the soil and then dump their contents (bodies) into the floodwaters.

Leader of a gang responsible for a sizeable portion of the evil shit that has happened in world history says people should think about supporting someone who is less evil.

Okay, guess your followers should switch to Buddhism, Hinduism, Confucianism, Atheism, or any other of a big handful of less-evil -isms to choose from than Catholicism.

Well the polls, surveys, questionnaires and polls; that’s not got much polls in it.

I mean, he paid with his life. And he suffered longer too.

As the saying goes, “the opposite of love is not hate, but indifference.”

Elon/Tesla designed this truck to be controversial, to generate discussion, and engagement. The best way to disengage from exactly what this thing was designed to do is not to meme about it, it’s to ignore it completely.

I see plenty of them around here on the road, but I also see endless regurgitating of this shit online. I kinda get it what it’s boomers on Facebook, but I expect the Lemmy crowd to get tired of the same joke after seeing it the nth time. Guess I place too much confidence in you all.

The worst fate a car that begs for attention can suffer is fading to obscurity. Why keep giving Elon all the attention and engagement he wants? Ignore the stupid thing.

Lol, coming from a whole gaggle who can’t stop but breathlessly “educating” others why the Cybertruck is terrible.

I’m on your side, it’s fucking horrendous. But Jesus, it was clearly designed to grab attention. Why keep giving Elon what he wants?

Point to me on this doll where the Cybertruck touched you.

Ugh, we’re still at this? Folks that claim to have their eyes melt out of their face every time they see a Cybertruck sure spend a lot of time posting pictures of them online.

I see about 100 of these hurr-durr cybertruk dum posts for every one I see out on the road. Funny that 99% of the Cybertruck I see is coming from the “haters”.

That combined with it being able to lock weapons onto multiple targets simultaneously, and also being quite stealthy so it can do these things way before the targets even know it’s coming.
