The most direct route from Russia to the US is North though the Arctic - so during the cold war there was a lot of first strike detection stuff setup in Arctic areas.

All politicians do when they’re out of office.

So obviously the solution is to stop.

You kids act like there’s some sort of consolation prize. Is it because you all got participation trophies or something when you were children? You lost the house, the senate, the presidency and the f’gin SCOTUS.

What political power do you think you really have anymore? Whining on lemmy about how you don’t want to vote for a boring candidate? No wonder MAGA is winning. They f’ing vote.

This is why MAGA is winning. Even they aren’t this stupid.

I’m frustrated.

Of course you are. As am I. But that doesn’t mean I’m willing to just “give up.” Yes I’ll vote against Trump at all chance even if it means I’ll lose. Because I may not.

I don’t want a leader who is fucking exciting or a firebrand. I just want a competent administrator who treats the nation as something to be preserved. And that’s a hard sell against a cheap auto-salesman like Trump.

Republicans make things worse, of course , but democrats don’t or can’t make things better.

But those are the only two options. So you pick a democrat and hope for the best.

Do you know how Congress works? I’m trying to determine if I have to explain what a “majority” means or not.

And what is the difference between them winning and losing?

Are you fucking joking?

If you don’t vote for them… They will lose…

They’re not a hockey team where it doesn’t matter if you participate as a fan or not. If they don’t get votes then they don’t get political power.

I just saved a ton of money each month by cancelling all of my health insurance!

It’s bullet proof, not pointed stick proof.

/s needed apparently

This is propaganda, opening a cybertruck door is very easy.

First you bring up the “doors” menu on the console. Then tap “right door” to get to the right door sub menu. Then tap “open”. If you get error “tsla3456” that means the truck is on fire. Normal cars don’t recognize when they’re on fire, this is a smart thing done by smart people at Tesla. So then you just go back to the “doors” menu, tap “right door” again, then “advanced” and then “overrides”. Enter the error number you want to ignore in the “ignore errors” item. Now you go back to “doors”, “right door” and tap “open” and the door will open easily.

Tesla even offers a free “door opening” course that’s just 2 hours long to go over all of the options you have for opening your cybertruck doors. It’s really the victims fault if they didn’t bother to learn how to use their vehicle.

/s I fear this is needed …

Trump’s decision to tear-up the original 2015 accord showed he cannot be trusted or taken seriously

Yeah, funny that.

Trump said last week, “There are two ways Iran can be handled: militarily, or you make a deal” to prevent Tehran from acquiring nuclear weapons.

We had a deal. You broke it you colossal asshole.

Considering they have minority status in all three branches of government, what do you suggest they do?
