That either means the war just goes on a while as is and/or that Trump dies soon. Not sure I trust either one.

Ffs that guy is annoying. Did not even do the math, which should have told him that hypersonic does not even scratch the surface unless he has an extremely wide drop-off region.

Not sure if this is serious or a joke.

But things don’t just fail because of manufacturing defects. You can lose things, drop them, rip the cable out while moving a chair, … so many ways to break on day one that are not covered. But okay, I understand that you expect things to last at least a year, that is a reasonable minimum.

How long do I expect that item to last in the worst case?

Worst case: Not even to the end of the day. Not a good metric.

In any case, do you actually keep track of everything you own like that? So x for headphones, x for the smartphone, x for shoes, x for tissues, …?

Fancy pictures, but who would use them at 13 km range in this kind of conflict? That would be suicidal.

Drones have carried larger warheads than 155 mm for a while now. Unlike artillery, they usually hit exactly where they should plus often with live feed too.

Also, I never said it is an exclusive thing, no idea why you put that straw man up. They are a counter to that given how mobile, cheap and ubiquitous they are.

So 10 have the same product, then what? Race to the bottom again? What about key details that are not easy to see but can be important? Amazon really is shit in this regard already, but randomly mixing shops will only be worse.

The best option is to waste as much time as possible.

Well, drones seem like a valid counter. 24/7 seeing every movement and pinpoint strike capabilities over dozens of km for next to no money.

High security? Without encryption?

Do you seriously compare someone posting a picture with text to fascists? Like the actual fuck?

Which was the last version of Windows where that was an issue?

Exactly. Most people have no idea that is even a thing.

The grid is always balancing supply and demand. Any mismatch builds up and would cause a black out if the power was really not available.

There have been so many such articles in the past few weeks, who cares? Nobody knows what he is feeling or how well he is really doing, this is all make pretend to feel good on the consumer(!) side and money making headlines for the media.

All these “news” about him going down, any moment now, are super annoying. All just for the clicks and people, even here on Lemmy, gobble it up.

At night, I hope you drive with your lights on and see that the light somehow can not make it through the entry of the tunnel.

Mate, even the AI slop from Google gets that right:

Christmas originated as a Christian holiday celebrating Jesus’ birth but was strategically placed on December 25th by early Church leaders to coincide with and transform existing pagan winter solstice festivals, like the Roman Saturnalia and Sol Invictus, absorbing traditions like feasting, greenery (holly, mistletoe), and gift-giving to attract converts and give them new spiritual meaning, making it a blend of ancient winter solstice customs and Christian theology.

They made everyone call it Christmas, but the holiday was there before that.

It feels like you are talking about something else, not the issue from the TO. It is specifically saying something, intentionally, that is either wrong or unknown but in either case confidently, as if you know/are correct. And that is not the right thing to do. Perhaps there are rare edge cases where that would be okay.
