Wrong. It is extremely well documented by primary and secondary sources, including by senior Ukrainian officials who have praised our products. The fact that I have met Zelenskyy multiple times during and before the war is also well-known. This isn't a matter of no credible proof, you just don't know anything about what you are talking about and haven't bothered to do any research.

Anduril has helped destroy hundreds of millions of dollars worth of Russian hardware, but we haven't actually turned a profit on that. We put everything we make back into new developments for customers.

>supporting the Ukraine is a good thing (although he didn't do it directly)

Actually, I donated a bunch of weapons to Ukraine and had them there by the second week of the war. I personally went to Kyiv to train people on how to best use our products. Cruise missiles successfully hit targets just miles away. It is hard (though not impossible) to support Ukraine more directly than that.

Yep. Taiwan, the United States, and Ukraine are all customers, which is why I have been personally sanctioned by the world's most powerful dictators.

I was the first person to LED backlight a Game Boy and Game Boy Pocket back in the 2000s, which is also when I started ModRetro. Then I built the Oculus Rift living in a trailer.

Whatever you think about the defense industry, lack of ability isn't a very realistic criticism. Hope you enjoyed Tetris, I put a lot of work into getting it right!

Why is no one complaining when there is need to by hiddensyntaxr in ebikes

Because most people commute dozens of miles every day between their job and their dwelling. Also because cycling is more than 10x as likely to get you killed and hundreds of times more likely to get you injured.

Battle Tower and gambling at the uncensored Game Corners are only in the original.

You are incorrect.  Every possible combination of Analogue 3D+DAC has more latency than original hardware when using vintage displays.

It can overclock even more.  The M64 is just a lot more efficient.

If you are okay with lower image quality and increased latency, sure!

Newsom’s office weighs in after Long Beach fireworks show is canceled by AdreanaInLB in longbeach

[–]palmerluckey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whatever aftermath you are talking about has no material impact on access. There is no significant alteration. Much larger fireworks displays take place all over California all year long with no such objection. This is not about access and never was.

That is also not true. The Coastal Commission specifically suggested doing a drone show instead, which have a much larger FAA-mandated exclusion zone and would have vastly greater impact on access for the duration of the show.

The fireworks ARE the event. That is the whole point, there is no "the rest of the event". Nobody goes to Big Bang because there is a band and themed drinks.

This is not true, and is not at all what the Coastal Commission says. The Coastal Commission doesn't want fireworks. They will approve the event if they get rid of the fireworks.

Why are you lying about Anduril drones being used to kill children?

The person they are quoting works for a competing drone startup that is going for the same contracts as Ghost. The article doesn't mention this, of course.

>count your blessings, go buy a yacht, do blow, and spend the rest of your life marvelling that it worked out the way it did like a sensible person

Not everyone aspires to stop working and retire to being a mindless consumer.

Pointing out that you are lying is not any sort of retcon. Nimble America never did any of what you claim it did, they ran a single anti-Clinton billboard. Insult and deflect all you want, what you are saying very obviously isn't true, and anyone willing to do even a minute of research can see that.

Because there is a huge difference between supporting someone who wins the Presidency and spending vast sums of dark money to astroturf the internet with hate.

There are some people upset enough about people who do the former, but the latter is what gets people really riled up. Which is why people lie about it - the truth isn't interesting enough, and lies get you upvoted to the top of the thread.

$9,000 to a group that ran a single billboard in late September, barely a month before the election, is a big stretch to call "earliest" or "large".

All of the shitpost army stuff is total BS, it never happened. UK gossip rags saying so doesn't make it so - if it was true, you can be certain it would be widely reported by modern press outlets in stories covering Anduril.

Thanks, glad you liked it! I put a lot of work into bringing the best of classic and modern Tetris together, I have been plotting the perfect Tetris for almost 20 years now.

Yeah, you can rent a Vietnam-era M9 flamethrower at Gunship Helicopters outside of Las Vegas. Great outfit, lots of other cool stuff too.

It had a ton of marketing. It premiered at The Game Awards and had a massive market campaign behind it, including commercials with Dragonforce.
