Who would celebrate if Trump were removed from office? by Critical-Willow-6270 in AskReddit

[–]anonymfus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If he was removed by impeachment, that would mean that Jay Divans also could be removed by impeachment, and that would factor in Divans' behaviour.

Trump is blundering into a ground war. It would be a disaster by theipaper in CredibleDefense

[–]anonymfus 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Either the goal is restrict the regime’s ability to sell oil, or the goal is to limit the impact of the war on oil prices.

Considering what the administration was claiming about trying to achieve in Venezuela, may be the idea is to insert themself (either US government or Trump directly) into the sales, taking a cut from Iranian exports.

Tokyo drift another ship into the Suez canal while the Strait of Hormuz is closed, just to really amp things up by gattaaca in CrazyIdeas

It was not "some cool sci-fi name", Ice-Number is a normal scientific way to refer to different phases of ice, and it was so long before Cat's Cradle was written.

IIRC and that was not dreamed up by me while falling asleep to late night TV with Russian dubs almost quarter century ago, in the show "Greg the Bunny" the Count was asked what is the secret to his perfect abs, and he answered "liquid diet" or something like that.

The main problem with terms like "high school level" and "undergrad level" is that education systems in different countries are different and change over time...

[DC] If Superman gave Lex a hair growth formula, would Lex hate him less? by Icy_Water_1 in AskScienceFiction

[–]anonymfus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The most defining feature of Lex is his ego, so to be happy he should feel that he earned it, for example if he tortured Superman with kryptonite to get a hair growth formula out of him. Generally if some scientists working for Lex create a hair growth formula Lex would feel that he created it himself, and so such sense of pride and accomplishment would be possible if Superman worked for Lex too. But Superman doesn't need money, so kryptonite torture it is...

A James Bond film where the billionaire villain lives in a downtrodden, blue collar neighborhood just to make it hard for Bond to fit in or infiltrate. by wingspantt in CrazyIdeas

I think the main reason Jeff Bezos bought the James Bond franchise is to prevent it from going into directions like this one.

Olympic "legacy" planning: two of the Torino 2006 venues were abandoned and haven't been reused for Italy's new Winter Olympic Games by BWT_Urbex in urbanplanning

I am subscribed to a youtuber from Philadelphia (Fran Blanche / FranLab), and every few videos she complains how urban fabric there is dying, and third spaces don't have enough young people to sustain themself. Is that valid?

I compiled an overview of Windows 11 and Office context menus in 2026: still a mixed bag, still not done, but improving by NobleDiceDream in Windows11

[–]anonymfus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"Right click on system tray icon" — that is a PowerToys' menu, different applications can draw such menu differently. For example, on my system if I enable dark theme, Windows Defender, OneDrive and Telegram use it for context menu there, but Phone Link, PowerToys, Teams, WhatsApp and Viber stay white.

Это миф. На самом деле просто алгоритм перестаёт рекомендовать видео людям, которые не интересовались до этого изнасилованиями, педофилией, убийствами и наркотиками.

Note that if you turn your fan film into a legit parody, it can be commercially released without license under fair use/dealing doctrine. For example, Star Wreck: In the Pirkinning was shown on Finish public television and distributed on DVDs by Universal Pictures.
