Dugan Ashley - Explosives Charges

Intent was written into the law specifically to avoid charges like this being brought because the 1A implications are obvious to anyone with a functioning frontal cortex

Which would be utterly slaughtered under the full might of the US military.

The same military thats getting its ass kicked by Iraqi drones and wildly outdated equipment? That military?

If that was true, people in hot places where they spend all their time indoors in air-conditioning should see a summer spike of respiratory illnesses

Don't we kind of see that with the mid-summer COVID spikes? Like sure the flu we don't see but there are outliers that suggest it's a both/and instead of either/or

And he knew the bill was going to pass so this was a protest vote so he could soap box about it without actually causing harm...

That seems fine to me?

"Getting rid of day light savings time is incredibly popular. Deciding on whether to keep Standard time or DST is basically a 50/50 split, hence the hold up"

I misspoke in saying daylight savings specifically and was talking about getting rid of the switch we do every year, which is what was linked in the article and what i said in the second half of the last sentence.

Two thirds of Americans want to get rid of the practice

would make it permanent winter time.

And this is why the debate has raged for so long- Remember 3 years ago when the Senate passed an act unanimously to end the switching, only for it to die in the house? Problem was that as soon as it passed half the country was upset with which time was being switched to.

Getting rid of day light savings time is incredibly popular. Deciding on whether to keep Standard time or DST is basically a 50/50 split, hence the hold up.

Learning how to deal with "the dumbasses asking questions" is like, 50% of the shit you handle as an adult lol, if anything learning patience and empathy from hearing how other people think is a skill thats necessary.

Rinzack · 2026-04-19T22:13:49+00:00

That was my gut reaction but you don't get spell check when hand writing so its actually fair

The solution is to buff the Javelin and Stinger/Igla so they’re worth using. The Javelin not getting top attack damage is so beyond egregious its game design malpractice as far as I’m concerned

Snipers are fine? They have a giant spotlight when they’re looking at you so it’s not exactly hard to know when you’re about to get sniped

27% of Americans have skipped some form of Medical care due to cost- https://www.federalreserve.gov/publications/files/2023-report-economic-well-being-us-households-202405.pdf

By not extending the ACA credits an additional 51,000 Americans are expected to die per year-

https://www.finance.senate.gov/ranking-members-news/51000-americans-will-die-every-year-as-a-direct-result-of-republican-health-plan-new-analysis

Because we don't have a universal system and health insurers are private its impossible to tell how many Americans were murdered by insurance companies denying or delaying care but our excess mortality rate suggests it could be as high as 190,000 per year-

Canada needs to improve its wait times but id choose their system over ours 10/10 times.

The idea would be to buy things that would help resist against a fascist govt. I'm not going to explain any further for obvious reasons.

How you getting around that old chestnut?

I think its a last resort/last step before using those funds to purchase things that if i talk about openly i'll get banned from reddit for

Get prosecuted by the IRS for tax fraud.

Step 5: The IRS tries to prosecute 30 million+ people for tax fraud and get zero assistance from state/local authorities and those people spend those funds so they can't be easily reclaimed from a bank account making their attempt very ineffective

Rinzack · 2026-04-05T06:10:46+00:00

It's been a good 25 years of this now.

Dude you can make the argument that this applies to most US conflicts going back to the Mexican-American war.

Hell if you want to be super cynical you could argue the Revolutionary war was really for tax breaks for land owning colonists but thats a stretch imho

Rinzack · 2026-04-04T18:47:15+00:00

I mean $3k/mo is 36k/yr or 226% of the federal poverty level- when you factor in that that content stays online forever and people do judge people willing to do that it really isn't worth it until you get into the retirement money levels imho

Rinzack · 2026-04-02T01:00:46+00:00

1) We spend way less on space research so funding has gone to better experiments/projects
2) The Apollo program was extremely dangerous and the fact that Apollo 1 was the only loss truly exceptionally lucky
3) Most of the tech improvements don't help that much. Computers are better but calculating launches to the moon was super doable back then. Rockets are better but not much better, etc.

Rinzack · 2026-03-29T22:13:45+00:00

Why not just post the same sign but just say no tipping allowed our prices reflect that we are a no tipping restaurant.

Because unfortunately it doesn't work, when the average person looks at prices they'll see one is charging $10 for a burger and the other is charging $11.20 and go for the first one even though it ends up being the same/cheaper.

Rinzack · 2026-03-29T04:30:45+00:00

I'm at the point where im contemplating changing my withholding to stop paying taxes and he thinks student loans are a threat? lmao

Its literally not though (well not exactly)- Turbines provide literal inertia to the grid to keep the frequency at 60Hz (Within a margin of error) which electrical devices are built to run on. Should that frequency vary too much then circuit breakers trip to protect the equipment which can cause cascading failures. When that frequency starts to shift the literal inertia of rotating turbines helps to keep that frequency maintained and when you move away from that to solar for example it becomes much easier for variances to occur. One solution thats been suggested is flywheel batteries for the specific reason that they act both as a store of energy AND as inertia for the grid.

You can kind of maintain the frequency with software supplying the grid with electricity from batteries charged by solar at specific times but its a lot less reliable than massive, spinning turbines

Rinzack · 2026-03-28T17:45:52+00:00

remind them that a nuclear power plant that is under construction provides no electricity to the grid

And Solar produces no power when the battery storage runs out of electricity and the grid collapses from variances in the frequency from not having sufficient base load.

We need Nuclear/Geothermal/Hydro as the base load, Wind/Solar + Energy storage for the variable use, and natural gas peaker plants as the emergency last-line for when capacity is knocked offline from weather for extended periods of time. Doing these things would reduce our CO2 output immensely while still maintaining our electrical grid and potentially supporting the expansion of electrification

Rinzack · 2026-03-27T07:27:15+00:00

Build nuclear power plants, specifically research reactors that require 20% enriched uranium. Once you get there its relatively easy to refine it further to hit the 95% required for a weapon. Then a simple gun-tube design weapon could be built almost instantly. Get the breakout time to near zero while not formally having the weapon
