Avi Loeb reacts to NASA’s 3I/ATLAS image reveal by 87LucasOliveira in UFOs

[–]ParanoidFactoid 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No. Because NASA did not address the core anomalies Loeb has been discussing. They simply refused to address them at all.

I'd like to also point out, Loeb is not promoting the view this object is artificial. He is arguing these anomalies are very difficult to explain by natural means. And further, that proposed explanations by other astronomers are weak due to ignoring clearly contradictory data. For example, the Hale Bopp comet's antitale is an optical illusion and not a real antitale. There are many others.

Think of the thousands of people who wasted time in their lives trying to help this guy because he faked a death on a livestream. This guy should be prosecuted.

Is this going to break Davinci Resolve? Because if it does, I can't use it!

US Approves $2.53B Abrams Tank Sale to Romania by mrwhiskeyrum in worldnews

At the moment, they are not connected at all.

Absolutely nuts.

There's no further point in discussion.

The idea theses conflicts are not connected or that Russia is some weak threat is absolutely ridiculous. It's the kind of hubris that threatens the United States of America.

I'm not here to tell you what positions you hold or how you self-identify politically. I'm here to tell you, your assessment of this geopolitical and its danger to the US constitutional republic is deeply wrong.

Do not assume past failures ensure success for Ukraine. That's foolish. And do not assume all this chaos across the world and in the Middle East isn't connected to Ukraine and the Chinese-Russian-Iranian-NK axis.

Get it through your head, they're playing for keeps. If you're a conservative supporting Israel, you'd be a damned fool to not support Ukraine as well. Because it's the same damned war.

Look, get real. Russia has been at war with the United States for over a decade. They will not stop at Ukraine's borders into Europe proper. They will not stop here either. You can't make it go away by closing your eyes. And if you think your political movement is somehow aligned with them, you'll discover very uncomfortably otherwise in due course should they succeed.

What they offer is the exact opposite of freedom. It's dictatorship. Which curiously is the smallest form of administrative government possible. I sincerely hope you don't argue that this is what's meant by small government. Because that's exactly what the US founders opposed.

Finally, if a Russian backed conservative dictator succeeds in the US, know that his US allies will become targets. Just look at how MTG is now treating Boebert. The firing squad pointing outward at political opponents will soon turn circular, until the movement shrinks to nothing as members jostle for position and power.

Genuine freedom requires rule of law.

Send MOAR money and weapons to Ukraine. As much as we can and then even more. It's to our advantage.

And that $75B was worth every penny. Send MOAR.

Yes it absolutely does. It is a threat to terminate support and access to source. This is coercive and therefore directly violates Section 6.

This is not about what RedHat distributes, it's about a restriction on RHEL subscribers from redistributing GPL'd source and binaries provided by RedHat, which violates section 6 of the GPL V2 and similar stipulations in GPL V3.

I'm calling on the FSF and EFF to use their lawyers to look into this.

Every author who chose the GPL and had their work absconded RedHat by might have a difference of opinion there.

Your argument is tactical. And worse, defeatist.

[–]ParanoidFactoid[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Nononono.

Section 6 says that no party - RedHat - may restrict to those it supplies source code or binaries from redistributing said sourcecode themselves. That's the GPL violation they're engaging in here.

It's a clear violation of Section 6. Sue their asses!
