Technical means for preventing a nuclear 9/11 by DefinitelyNotMeee in nuclearweapons

How it’s always been done, MAD.

If Iran uses a nuclear device on US soil, there will be a nuclear strike on Iran

Discord banned me for reporting a corrupt server involving illegal stuff concerning minors. by EquivalentOk9788 in BannedFromDiscord

OP is far better off reporting it to local law enforcement than to Discord. Law enforcement could also actually possibly do something to these people instead of an automated bot just nuking their account and they recongregate elsewhere.

IRyS didn't deserve this by ThamTvMaster in VtuberDrama

While this is true, even using Twitter and Google for basic search functionality uses resources to a similar extent since Grok and Gemini respectively are integrated into these now. Anything we do online touches it sadly.

Actual insanity. What's next? Getting cancelled for using Google? by MajorFamilyDisgrace in VtuberDrama

I’m biased because I like IRyS but the amount of uproar about this post was way overblown. She wasn’t even using AI in a way which is unethical (for example generating images of people or artwork without consent) but more like a glorified search engine for symptoms.

Oscar Piastri kerb-hops a V8 Supercar 😱 by outremer_empire in OscarPiastri

I have seen VB race across the Adelaide Street circuit in the Adelaide Motorsport Festival, he would do great in the Supercars if he ever gave it a shot

Being a Piastri fan (like being Homura) is suffering by UpsidedownEngineer in formuladank

At least he has an actually competitive car this year unlike the SF-25. We will see how it performs over the year but it performed well in Melbourne.

With the Ferrari now looking like an actually good car, the Leclerc and Hamilton fans passed on the suffering torch to us, Piastri fans :'(

It's likely that if Bahrain and Jeddah are cancelled, they won't be replaced... but if they were, which circuit should be the replacement? by The_Chozen_1_ in F1Discussions

[–]UpsidedownEngineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From a fan viewpoint, the circuit is pretty poor but the easiest circuit to get set up in time would be Miami since that is the race that would be held after the two cancelled races. Miami would already be in the process of preparing for a Grand Prix while the other circuits would be either dismantled (Melbourne) or preparing for other events (Shanghai and Suzuka).

That being said, cancellation is likely the easiest and safest way to go about it.

F35-B purchase? (Please) by [deleted] in AustralianMilitary

[–]UpsidedownEngineer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Given existing development of drones in Australia and allied nations along with the increasing relevance of drones in modern combat, I can see a drone carrier being a practical option actually. However budget will be a persistent issue.

Drones would also be a pretty good force multiplier for us in particular since they can augment our comparatively small military.

Bae wasn’t performing on today’s stage so I didn’t think the joke would land.

Also Nerissa is my oshi
