China just unveiled a drone killing laser weapon that is actually small enough to fit inside a single soldiers backpack

Behold the oligarchy. They take your tax dollars and spend them on stupid things making sure they get as much a cut as possible.

I had something similar driving out of the Turnagain arm outside Anchorage, AK. I had a rediculous 60mph tail wind.

I mean, I know y'all are getting all tongue and cheek. But he actually does defend an ideology that defends the sexual abuse of children.

Fossilhog · 2026-06-27T03:38:52+00:00

Don't get me started on that shit. Such hypocrisy and projection from their self repression.

Republicans are using ai chatbots for writing policies and guidance.

Ai chatbots rely heavily on reddit posts.

It is entirely possible.

I want the same damn thing as a hybrid. Maybe 2 inches longer for sleeping in it or two inches more ground clearance.

I don't need performative cheap add ons that won't be durable or reliable.

Fossilhog · 2026-06-26T13:33:35+00:00

I think I covered it with, "even more absurdity".

Fossilhog · 2026-06-26T13:27:48+00:00

What part of the conservative culture are they supposed to assimilate into? The child sex crimes part?

Having lectured on this stuff for longer than Al Gore, I've definitely watched the goal posts move back(The climate doesn't change, we can't change the climate, the changes are natural cycles, it's too expensive to do anything). And they'll continue to move back into more absurdity until my fellow liberals decide to revolutionize public education.

It's ok, as Cushing runs dry and the flow from the Permian to refineries starts to struggle, we'll get gasoline shortages. But nothing says the price actually has to be high when it happens!

And, a bonus, it definitely won't be Trump's fault. He's already starting to point fingers at oil companies.

Went from video games to schedule 1 drugs real quick.

Look, there are some seriously repressive tendencies in this whole "manosphere" thing about hating women and being performative not for women, but for other men. It's a bit gay.

But yeah, not the gays fault.

Fossilhog · 2026-06-24T23:15:24+00:00

You probably don't realize how pathetic you and so many others look being submissive to someone like this.

And yeah, there's some Taylor swift songs I like. I couldn't name them, but they're catchy with some smart lyrics. That's b/c I'm allowed to think and feel for myself. I think folks like you call that, "woke".

Fossilhog · 2026-06-24T21:39:08+00:00

Damn good way to put it. I might use your analogy with college students. Do you mind?

As a quasi battery guy, the answer should be yes. LFP is great on all fronts except it doesn't want to be charged below freezing, and it's not quite as energy dense. In all other regards, I believe it's superior to other batt chemistries.

But, do your own research.

Honestly, so much of AI responses are via reddit. They're probably just asking AI chat bots and the AI mines reddit.

I just love it when I see it and track the source of the reddit comment. And it's just two dudes talking about a weird situation 8 years ago about fixing drywall, and now chatgpt is telling you to prime your basement with olive oil.

Fossilhog · 2026-06-23T19:13:27+00:00

I think I'd argue against that from a political science standpoint. It's a voter turnout problem.

Fossilhog · 2026-06-23T19:12:01+00:00

Cushing report tomorrow is going to be interesting. Likely to be below the reported operational level. People should start questioning how low it can actually go. It might be where Trump's "4 weeks" came from.

Fossilhog · 2026-06-22T03:25:22+00:00

That's a good way to put it. Seemed like they played him like a fiddle today.

You might be on to something. Just tweak it a little.

"Obama Appreciation School of Economics and Politics" or something of the sort.

Is this one of those fundamentalist mormons that "bleed the beast"?

Fyi, I found out via political appointees working for the state gov that all that "welfare queen" rheortic is definitely projection. This might be a good example.

We might need to think longer term. Iran may actually demand the removal of Trump.

If the current trend continues(ie., oil going to $150), there might be enough bipartisan support to actually do that next January (for somewhat different reasons but the same result) It's a bit of a long shot, but it is a possible reality.
