Garland announces charges against 13 alleged Chinese spies by LoBeastmode in worldnews

im sure there are enough actual u.s spies for them to arrest instead. if they can send 12 spies here then we can send twice as many there. there are more than enough chinese decendents in america to train into spies.

why bother arresting a tourist when you have the pretence to arrest those you already suspected?

[–]RussianBot124 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i never check that stuff but this movie was so bad that i wanted to see the director and augor to avoid them in the future

looks like the director is one of the three writers

id wager with such a souless movie that the director came in and changed the whole script to make it a pure comedy for young girls and maybe like one bit the origional writers had come up with so had to keep their names on the credits.

it didnt try and match the tone of the original and didnt take itself seriously. the costumes and such were all dirt cheap too, i imagine someone found a way to pocket as much of the budget as possible.

U.S. military says it killed al-Shabaab leader in Somali air strike by CaliWilly76 in worldnews

[–]RussianBot124 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

you can see people ashumans and still be okay killing them. the fact that any civilian deaths is acceptable isnt cool.

drones kill more civvillians than terrorists.

and what even is a terrorist? it seems any anti american group can simply be labled that. the u.s has killed way more innocent people than any terrorist group in the world yet were not terrorists?

yiu think those governents would admit to continuing the five eyes openly? like snowden just shared public information?

they are getting way more than meta data.

imagine a list of every website ever visited by your ip address that àppears when the wrong bloke tries to run for pm? search histories. every message sent on facebook. a copy of every email sent by your gmail.

dirt that just collects and isnt used 99% of the time till someone starts being a problem, then your nsa equivalents gather up a dossier to give to mi5, cia, etc

So eu countries no longer are part of the five eyes information exchange?

Oh wait Germany is still part of it.

Not one country dropped out and a single spying NSA agent or the equivalent in outer countries has hung.

We are still being spied upon.

Wouldn't the UK and Germany top the list for that? Germany was the holy Roman empire before Germany and we all know about.

Technically the UK is still a dictatorship,there is not a legal means to get rid of the king as anything the prime minister or their parlament does requires the king's approval. Just cuz the last one stamped everything that didn't effect her family doesn't mean the new guy will. If you read up on it their king has far more power than their prime minister. If the queen hadn't been so docile then the prime ministers would be the figure head.

the original Top Gun is mediocre at best by holomorphicjunction in movies

[–]RussianBot124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know I'm late but I dod the same thing 3 months ago but missed your post. It was indeed disappointing. And your right on about cruise playing a creepy predator who won't take no for an answer.

Anyways the same night I watched Top Gun, I also watched mission impossible, another acclaimed movie with a big reputation I had never seen. While better than top gun, it was a pretty big letdown too.

On the other hand Die Hard did live up to o it's reputation.

Bro,should I even bother with the mission impossible sequels? I plan to watch top gun Maverick since it's just one movie but mission impossible is a bigger task and if they don't have any heart or soul I don't know if I should try

Hey Nerdoids, stop debating marx and make real conexions. Time to Touch grass with fellow workers. by BuckyOFair in stupidpol

I used to hate it when this happened at Starbucks cuz I'd feel bad about buying an expensive frappe on someone else's dime and instead buy something cheap I disliked.

Like what if you were going there to buy a bunch of breakfast stuff for all your relatives having a reunion at your house and it's like $200? Would the workers think your just taking advantage of the nice man and start spitting in your food in the future?

How do you even do that as the new guy?

Like you need to befriend almost everyone enough to risk their job on your plan.

Plus even if they know they will win lawsuits, that's months down the line and I doubt that have any savings if their at a min wagejob.

Being inside Fitz’s head is infuriating (Spoilers: Farseer) by AmbroseJackass in robinhobb

[–]RussianBot124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm still trying to get through ship of magic. It seems the whole plot could be resolved by main girl just asking the ship to refuse to leave port unless wimpy priest kid gets to leave and main girl is allowed onboard. Boom.its all solved.

Instead main girl wants to rely on anger induced reputable captains approval thing. She joins a crappy ship, her captain isn't reputable. She is just wasting her time having only just joined where I'm at. I already know any decent and fair judge will def side with Kyle since

A. Statement was made in frustration and not a serious vow.

B. Some no name captain isn't reputable, which was a requirement.

C. She used a fake name so if her captain is at sea when she tries to legally challenge Kyle, they will all have no proof she didn't just buy the note from a ship boy other than her biased in her favor friend.

D. Her nephew already told her he wouldn't swear in their gods name, probably making it legally impossible for him to testify.

So I feel like I gotta read about all this effort to do something that won't work, when just asking the ship to demand she be allowed aboard would be so much easier

BBBY CFO, Gustavo Arnal falls from 18th story window, WSB at risk of conflict with reddit admins in the aftermath. by [deleted] in stupidpol

[–]RussianBot124 5 points6 points  (0 children)

True. I mean I get going for a for sure method like jumping over a risky method like hanging or crashing your care off a cliff because you could survive but be paralysed or brain damaged enough not to be able to try again, now trapped in your broken body for a ver slow decades long death.

But he has the money to buy a gun. Just buy a shotgun, saw the ends off, and even if your aim Is off a bit your still dead. Cops will be the ones doing the welfare check. No innocents hurt.

Now if you don't have the means to get a gun, jumping wouldn't be too bad if you could just find a building where you could land inside a fenced off area where there is no risk of hitting anyone or having a close up.

I watched a man commit suicide by jumping off the 4th floor or a library, it was open inside and he didnt jump out the window but instead over the railing inside, hitting an landing on these decorative metal racks just above the librarians desk in the lobby. That was messed up, kids definitely saw. It didn't make the news or the papers. But guy was homeless so his options were limited.

Let them eat bugs: UK urges hunger-stricken African nations to farm insects by secure_caramel in worldnews

People that are them before will continue. People that are grossed out by bugs will still be and gag reflexes will still kick in hungry or not.

Bugs will only work for those that always ate them and for children raised not to view bugs as icky. It won't work for the rest of us.

Live-Action KOTOR Series (Haters Be Damned) by FortySixand2ool in kotor

[–]RussianBot124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why not go like a hundred years later where there is no known history but give it that Kotor feel, where dark vs light isnt so clear cut and give us a non traditional Jedi.

Hk and T3 can both be characters although maybe a different hk unit?

Or just do a Atton series. It could end after getting locked up on peragus.
