‘Vote for me or you are a bad person’ doesn’t sell, never has. Democrats had a wakeup call 8 years ago and let it pass them by. Hopefully they take it this time and strengthen the party and candidates.

Thank you for the solid points. People are dooming way too hard, simply because their preferred candidate lost this round. There is an opportunity for Democrats to improve themselves. They had that wakeup call 8 years ago, and they didn’t take it. Hopefully they will this time and strengthen the quality of the party and the candidates. Simply being ‘not Republican’, their primary strategy, isn’t enough.

teetering on brink of another civil war

Shit has to get much, much, much worse before people are willing to take up arms against their own family member 'en mass. A civil war isn’t one in which you fight a far away enemy, a civil war is one in which many of your family members and friends are on the opposite side. We are nowhere near a civil war, not even close.

Assuming you are talking about who won the US presidential election. Happened 8 years ago too, it wasn’t the end of America then. It won’t be the end of America now.

Glad to hear the UK is doing their part!

Why would Pennsylvanians hate carbon-free power?

This day, day 999 of the war, Ukraine certainly hasn’t lost. Enabling strikes to cripple Russia’s war machine will certainly make sure Russia doesn’t win for the next many days too.

In this war of attrition, all one has to do is not lose.

You would rather power it with natural gas? Because that is what would largely power it otherwise. The datacenter does not turn off at night.

All I’m going to say is Stack Inserters (not the green bulk inserters, the new white Stack Inserters) are kickass.

You can use normal assemblers for the spoiled to nutrient makers, which will help with nutrient creation. I also found the bioflux --> nutrient recipe to be more useful. So, so many more nutrients.

I didn’t even think to try that! Wait, I guess that means blue and red modules use more nutrients?!

Trees are carbon neutral. They pull the carbon out and sequester it in themselves. When they rot or burn, the carbon is returned.

It’s Not Hard For A Billion-Dollar Company To Credit An Artist From Time To Time

The companies who own these games never bother to credit the artist

I guess I’m a bit confused here. Every film I have seen in my entire life credits the artists, and many games do as well.

I think it is just the earth. It’s round and gets physically in the way of the signal as you approach the ground.

For this war, that was a pretty large assault! That first hit looks like it may have gotten a pair of vehicles too!

Yep, we can each do our individual part. Ukraine has a direct donation page at United 24. I sent some more money the day after the election, figured they could use it.

the most advanced armaments available were bolt-action rifles

At the time, individuals owned top-of-the-class warships complete with cannons. It’s what made up a good portion of the continental navy.

The Lewis and Clark Expedition even used the Girandoni rifle, complete with a 21 round magazine.

It’s not a ban on ownership

According to the AP, it is most certainly a ban on ownership. “Illinois banned the sale or possession of semiautomatic weapons”. This is the core reason the law was overturned, it’s unconstitutional to ban arms in common use.

Banning arms in common use is unconstitutional. Like it or not, these arms are in common use.
