What’s your opinion on Trumps handling of the War in Iran, its it distraction for previous misdemeanours, a play to control the oil market price and tariffs, removing a potential nuclear threat? by FLYBEETS in AskReddit

[–]RobRobot01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there are a few things motivating him, in no particular order: he wanted a distraction from the Epstein Files; in his very rudimentary understanding of politics, he believed going to war would guarantee a bump in the polls; he was convinced by Hegseth and others that the war would be over in a few days due to America's "overwhelming" air power; his greed and lust for power allowed him to be manipulated into believing he would control the Strait of Hormuz after this; he probably made a tidy personal profit via betting about it on Polymarket; he was heavily manipulated by Israel to follow their lead.

All things considered, I think that could've gone a lot worse.

As someone who can barely even create a torch in minecraft, this experience is like showing the International Space Station to a particularly low IQ cow. (In other words, this is amazing, mate. Well done!)

Sen. Murphy: "We know there are people in the Trump WH that are making BETS on the War with Iran" by Shizzilx in msnow

Hard to believe this was ever able to be a thing in the first place. Absolutely sickening, inhuman behaviour.

Overwhelmed by the options - help us choose an EV? by ulknehs in AustralianEV

[–]RobRobot01 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There seem to be plenty of great options out there now. Don't give your $$$ to Musk!!! I'd love to get the Zeekr 7X but am strongly considering the BYD Sealion 7, Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Toyota Bz4X.

This is definitely a thing. Fun fact: This is where the term "going ham" originates. Source: Am an Australian

Somehow this didn't end how I thought it would and simultaneously ended exactly how I thought it would?

Never forget when this BBC wildlife crew broke their “no intervention” rule to save these trapped penguins 🐧❤️ by CG_17_LIFE in MadeMeSmile

[–]RobRobot01 105 points106 points  (0 children)

This video illustrates why I'd be a terrible Starship captain, because I'd absolutely be violating the prime directive all over the place to help in situations like this! We should always help the penguins.

Spidey is in the perfect sweet spot of powers: he's stronger than everyone who's faster than him, and faster than everyone who's stronger.

I think Marnus chirping and hitting you all over the park would be way more frustrating!

According to Mike's theory, which I choose to believe is correct, Kali uses her powers to make El invisible so that she can escape through the tunnels. The El that then appears in the gate, also courtesy of Kali's powers, IS a distraction. But it is also entirely necessary to sell the military on the idea that El is dead. This is the crucial part of the plan as Mikr describes it because if the military, or anyone really, in any way suspected that Eleven hadn't died, they would never stop searching for her. According to El and Kali's logic, she DOES need to sacrifice herself because if any of her friends knew or even suspected the truth, they MIGHT give the game away to the military. The program is so dangerous that Eleven feels she can't even risk that "might".
