How many men can she hold in there again? A full platoon?

I agree with both of you in principle, but who really had N Korea troops in meat wave assaults on their 2024 bingo cards?

I am personally looking for a few things that will concern me about escalation:

• Japan and Finland making active land claims to Russia (actively reoccupying disputed land with troops)

• Europe putting peace keepers in Western Ukraine (which will create a casus belli for war with Russia), specifically France and the UK. I mean, Poland as well, but if Poland says they are putting peacekeeping troops in Ukraine, Russia should either back off or assume war.

• South Korean troops in Ukraine. (Ridiculous given their current chaos, but stranger things have happened in the last year).

Other than that, the russian frog has been very well boiled for 3 years. Even China has probably gone back to the drawing board on a taiwan invasion, and added a delay until 10 millions drones are available.

I do have concerns trump will pull the us back in europe, making the second item above possible if not likely. The first trump presidency shook us primacy in europe, and the second may see it start to unravel. If europe has to take russia alone, the us should consider china a personal problem from now on (as well as any other concerns not near europe), as no one will see value in going to war with a fair-weather ally.

Lemmy is slowly accumulating mass - I’d really love it if we gained a number of strong niche communities, but didn’t turn into a reddit due to mass influx.

It’s sea real estate.

Yes, because I have fixed goals that are for what I consider the greater good of humanity, and an unlimited amount could be spent on them.

Must have been controlling it with a mouse.

Edit: and I mean a living, terrified little mouse, wearing a little flight suit and aviator goggles and slightly drunk on vodka.

I’m told you are supposed to pick up the good ones.

Automation.

Upvoted for humility. You’re a good egg.

Houston was not designed with traffic in mind. Houston is a blob of vague zoning laws and and “add-a-lane” monstrous freeways that create 4 hours of crawling traffic.

It’s not like Hank thought of the hammocks, but you know he took credit for the work it got him.

Here’s a fun tidbit, I used to deal with ambulance billing. Most places would try to hang back on submitting their bills, because the first to submit would hit the insurance deductible, and it was unsure if that portion would be paid.

Flight services bill as quickly as possible, out of concern of hitting a billing cap, because after, say, $100,000 on a bill, some policies stop paying.

The only thing that would cause deflation is innovation or reduced demand, and there’s not a lot of innovation in food, and everyone but anorexics seem determined to eat.

Where was Peewee Herman when we needed him?

Soon we won’t even read the headlines and just react to what we’re thinking about, which is why this 3D printer sucks.

He might live in Phoenix.

“More presidential.”

Well how long would I have to give one of them up for?

Does “a foreign language” count?
