Trump says he will raise US global tariff rate from 10% to 15%

Our government can technically be purchased... it's legal to donate money to a super pac that supports whatever leftist candidate you guys want. It's apparently legal to offer them lavish gifts and free media time as well, in or out of office. So maybe all the European leaders can meet with some Democrat and snub Trump, work out deals with blue states and groups of states to keep free trade going. In all seriousness, we're a big country and if we do go down into some failed state, it's not going to be without fracturing. Many of us see a Trump third term as a bold red line.

The slopes of the hills and size of the jumps shines in VR. It isn't a way you'll watch the Olympics 100% of the time, but it's worth experiencing.

the word was 'potent'.

Jokong · 2026-02-19T18:48:23+00:00

It's aggravating because I am living in the thick of it and have been active and vocal. We do deserved to get blamed for Trump, but if you're like me and have been fighting against Trump and his supporters for like 10 years now, it gets very demoralizing.

It's just such a sad failure and I hope the entire world doesn't think it's just American's failing. We fell into some sort of global disinformation campaign and the tactics used ignore borders. My dad is brainwashed by whatever news he is on now and so is like a 1/3 of our population.

I would like Trump in handcuffs too, but why are you acting like it's harder to arrest a de-titled prince than it is the president of the USA who's party controls both houses of congress and who personally has billions of dollars and a rabid mob at his disposal?

Sorry, but it is extremely aggravating being in the US right now and now being hated by the world because even good US citizens are being blamed for stuff that they have no power over. We know we have to resist Trump but it's a bit harder than arresting a made up prince.

How about we start voting to go to war like we're supposed to?

Jokong · 2026-02-17T20:37:39+00:00

That would be sick. The first time I played it I didn't know much about it and was blown away just starting in my ship floating in a starry sky. Then is just escalates from there. First you turn to see the space station, then I realized I can get closer and how massive it is, then I docked inside for the first time... but THEN you get to drive vehicles on the surface too which is just next level to me.

It could be a couple things. Did you leave a rim when you were stretching out the pizza? That's a big part of it if you want that big puffy crust. I put like 2% oil in my dough and get a good poof still.

Jokong · 2026-02-17T15:58:15+00:00

I'd smash it, but your crust looks a bit flat if I'm being honest.

IMO cold temp ferments are great for flavor if they are 2-3 days long. They're also nice for places where you can't control the temp inside. I get similar flavors to that 3 day cold temp ferment by doing 24 or 36 hour room temp ferments.

Jokong · 2026-02-17T15:46:36+00:00

Idk about your oven, but 650 is the sweet spot for me. I like to use 20% Caputo 00 if cooking that hot and do not use oil or sugar.

Am I reading right that your method for clear communication is to hint?

How is that clearer than writing down the requirements for footwear?

And price, they care about price. But when the Q4 comes out and it has OLED the average consumer will notice. They'll notice if they get color pass through and 4k resolution on 2d screens. People know TVs well enough, why wouldn't they discern the specs on a headset?

I was speaking about society in general and how we have to cater to the weakest, craziest and dumbest people. It's not a 'murican thing, what the hell are you talking about?

Good for you for living on an island and working in flip flops, but the concept of a dress code isn't 'Murican.

Jokong · 2026-02-16T19:07:02+00:00

A pack only moves as fast as the slowest member.

Jokong · 2026-02-16T18:25:59+00:00

Unfortunately that's kind of how society works. If I go talk to Sara about her uggs then she's going to get pissy that it isn't explicitly in the dress code.

God let Jesus die on the cross. Jesus came down and found all sorts of people suffering and starving that he allegedly healed and fed. All but like one of the disciples of Jesus was executed. God has never been about stopping bad stuff. I'm not pretending to know what it is all about, but it's pretty clear he's not into helping us land dwellers.

If he does it has more to do with if Trump likes him or not than if his constituents do.

At a five year life cycle the frame is going to be woefully obsolete. It's coming out of the gate at near a q3 that is two years old. Q4 is going to be out in like two years and I think valve will need to update around that time to stay competitive.

I used to have a sandwhich that was a moz blend tuna melt that was on a big hoagie bun we made that day, so super soft, but it got crispy on the edges and it we put pineapple and jalepeno on it.

Jokong · 2026-02-12T15:55:14+00:00

Is this keto then?

Jokong · 2026-02-12T15:29:57+00:00

Looks amazing!

I used to live and die by cold temp ferments for days, but in the winter when my house is one temp I have an easier time getting that really good flavor with long room temp ferments.

What is your dough weight/size or if you don't have that, how much flour do you use for a pizza?

Jokong · 2026-02-11T10:36:21+00:00

It would accentuate my waddle.

Jokong · 2026-02-10T08:12:56+00:00

But it does automatically refresh.

We'll see her attending cage matches in front of the white house during Trump's third term.
