But like, if you were running for president and about to speak to a crowd you’d probably low key phone half-pull and google the name and do the glance, right? Like ‘what city am I even in’ type shit, Trump is beyond dumb

My only interpretation is that Trump is basically senile grandpa at thanksgiving dinner making a gay jab at someone for having 2 pierced ears. I don’t even get how he could genuinely and sincerely mix this up

Better yet do some low speed low elevation bullshit in their airspace in desolate bumfuck nowheresville and let the locals relay it. Who did that? Nobody really knows

Hundreds and hundreds. Stop drop and roll

In a situation like this I just cap all the wires. Some say the exposed ground is okay, but it’s even more okay if it’s capped. If the hot wires are capped, no need for ground, so ground gets capped, that type of deal

The Nvidia 7800GT Dual is an oddball card from that era. Nvidia made a dual chip card back in 2004-2005 and they deemed it so power hungry that it had supplementary power routed to the rear, and an external power supply brick was packaged alongside it. It was a monster of a card, measuring nearly 10 inches long, and could make a 350W PSU beg for mercy. How the times have changed

As a federal employee I’m really not understanding how assaulting a federal employee under any circumstance could ever be construed as ‘law and order’. This guy is like a 7 year old pretending to be a mafia thug

If you’re HFT/scalping you’ll almost always be trading DMA in which case you’ll almost always have per-share commission, usually less than .005

It adds liquidity and that does more good than bad for everyone, whether you’re a retail investor looking to enter or exit a position without facing a hefty ‘tax’ from a wide bid-ask spread, or you’re managing an ETF and need to dump 300k shares of something while rebalancing.

Without HFT a lot of tickers would look like options and futures contracts - no volume, wide spreads, and rife with abuse from people walking orders up and down

It’s pretty typical for Vance. Yank the angriest incel imaginable out of their basement, give them a suit and a fresh haircut, shove them in front of a microphone and you get JD Vance. No exaggeration whatsoever

MAGA terrorists have assaulted newspeople, destroyed cameras, whole 9 yards. Might be some of that mixed in with everything else. Fear of retaliation or whatnot. Most of these people have public-facing jobs with little to no security detail and Trump’s supporters range from civil to psychotic

If Trump gets in, we set back the pro-life cause and free markets by a generation at least,'" Erickson revealed.

This guy is beyond naive. First thing Trump would do is go back on everything he said and all the republicans would do mental gymnastics to explain how it’s all congruent and justified and nothing was a bold-faced lie to the American people. And then Trump would contradict them all by saying he was in fact lying and it’s all part of a game that he’s winning, and they’d all bend the knee. Fool me 398 times

They assaulted someone for doing their job. Not just anyone - a federal employee protected under 18 USC 111, on account of that federal employee’s performance of their duties, in violation of 18 USC 111, and then make a statement acting like they’re the reasonable party in this incident.

i’d say they act like a bunch of 8 year old bullies but most kids are wise enough not to draw this kind of heat

“All-cause mortality” simply means death from all (or any) causes.

So for smokers, you got a buttload of people with this thing in common, and rather than look specifically at something like deaths from lung cancer, you take a step back and look at deaths from anything. And then go in and try to find correlations and help to understand those correlations.

It’s kind of a chicken and egg scenario, because some of those causes might not be from smoking, but from a person’s proclivity to smoke.

For example, smokers might possibly be more impulsive than non-smokers (generally speaking) and there might be a higher risk of motor vehicle fatalities in the smoker group, but the cause wouldn’t be smoking, it’d be underlying behavioral differences that would make someone more likely to smoke.

It’s basically looking at mortality from a distance as opposed to looking at very specific things up close (but with the data it lets people zoom in on everything)

Good point, the more I think about this the more absurd it gets. A handful of white xenophobes want to inadvertantly make 2nd generation Somali and 3rd generation Hmong the only truly legitimate citizens in America, shit is cracking me up

key word is ‘or’. You can be President if you’re a natural born citizen, and they’re suggesting that in order to be a natural born citizen one must prove that at some point in their family’s history, two citizens produced offspring on each side of the family.

Which is absolutely bonkers because there are probably a hundred million white people in America that have no fucking clue if their great-great-great grandparents or great-great-great-great grandparents obtained citizenship. Someone’s citizenship is illegitimate until proven otherwise with this kind of reasoning. We’re gonna need a bigger prison system lol, maybe convert the western half of Iowa into an open-air detention center? The implications are hilarious to me

So, in other words, the burden of proof in regard to citizenship would be on the citizen in question, and they’d have to show at which point in their genealogical history both parents were citizens and had a child? Sounds totally not messy at all

It’d be a little harder for a lot of civilians to be indifferent towards this whole war if it saunters up and starts banging on their front door

Edit: it’s a metaphor. Dude asked how 3-4 bombs would end the war and most things in a war aren’t meant to outright end it. Right now the whole thing is ‘out of sight out of mind’ for most people but if targeted strikes on infrastructure hit local news you bet you’re ass it’d be demoralizing
