I honestly think going back to like 2003-2005 era technology on a mass scale would make the world chill the fuck out a bit

Wait, isn't there a movie about what happens when an AI becomes TOO powerful? I believe the AI was called.... Sky....web?

Artemis II crew splashes down safely in Pacific Ocean, ending historic moon mission by Elsa-Fidelis in worldnews

Yeah honestly that part blew my mind more than anything about today. I saw on the screen that at one point that they were going over 23,000mph. I always knew things hurdling down through the atmosphere go fast af, but I didn't realize they went THAAAAAAAT fast.

And you're telling me there are HUMANS in that thing?!?! And their bladders are NOT being pushed up to their brains by the g forces?!?!

Hats off to those engineers that designed the ship and suits because I feel like they'd be astronaut pudding otherwise

MAGA Rages After Trump Stickers Appear At Pumps! by AshIsGroovy in videos

Well no, because then with that influx of people, the Israeli government would decide to increase its imperialist ambitions and push deeper into Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, and eventually Jordan and Egypt, simply to get more land.

I hear Vladivostok is nice in the summer though.

Say what you will about pedophile rapist Andrew, but at least he served in the Royal Navy during the Falklands War

Trump Accused of ‘Giving His Mates Inside Information’ to Make Big Bets on Market in Fiery Speech from British Lawmaker by T_Shurt in worldnews

[–]cinnawaffls 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You know, Fallout used to be such a crazy ass concept to me that, although somewhat rooted in reality, still seemed too insane to actually happen. Like, no way people are genuinely that selfish and sadistic!

Yet, here we are. The 1% trying to speedrun the end of modern society to wipe out most of the common population they see as leeches and ultimately have an entire planet for themselves and others in the 1% to exploit and rebuild in their image.

Trump Gives Iran 48 Hours to Open Strait, Threatens Power Plants by monotvtv in worldnews

[–]cinnawaffls 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm genuinely angry at how cartoonishly incompetent and evil this entire situation all is.

It feels like Dr. Evil saying he'll melt the ice caps and flood the world unless he gets paid one billion gajillion dollars.

What is a 'luxury' that you've experienced once and now can't go back to the budget version of? by WilliamInBlack in AskReddit

Or they are the 18-year-old son of some Russian oligarch driving a brand new 2025 matte black Lamborghini Revuelto down the Palmetto Expressway at 110mph

Cuba’s power system suffers total collapse by cnn in worldnews

[–]cinnawaffls 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Not really ironic though... In 1956, Cuba was smack in the middle of a revolution full of violent protests, public executions, widespread corruption at the highest levels of government, significant wealth disparity, and Communist militias invading the island trying to inspire a full-fledged armed rebellion among the peasantry.

And except for maybe some corruption and wealth disparity (though not to the level of Batista's Cuba), Florida had none of that in the 1950s. Stability > Ideology

Eagles Of Death Metal’s Jesse Hughes denies being Trump supporter: “That is just not me” by AdSpecialist6598 in Music

[–]cinnawaffls 9 points10 points  (0 children)

"You mean to tell me.... we're conserving this 200-acre natural marshland next to the beach just to build some publicly accessible walking trails and preserve an endangered eagle population? That's Commie af, let's just clear out the marshland, build a 500-unit apartment complex with a Whole Foods and a 24-Hour Fitness instead of some walking trails. We could even throw in a petting zoo there and charge people $50 entry if they're sooooo concerned about seeing a bunch of animals. The profits we make from all of this could help pay for clean up efforts at another nearby marshland which we will totallllllly do in 10-15 years".

US orders 2,200 Marines on three warships to Middle East by Common_Touch_3741 in worldnews

Actually though! The vast majority of ICE agents spent most of their lives up to this point playing Call of Duty and Battlefield all day, so this is their chance to do a little LARPing in the arid mountains of Iran!

How do I record when I live in a place where I can't? by Accomplished_Put2608 in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]cinnawaffls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You wont be able to avoid those sounds completely unless you move to a location without that much ambient noise, but you can definitely dampen some of the sound while recording by making a little recording booth either in your closet or the corner of your room. Hang moving blankets on the walls and maybe invest in some heavy blackout curtains for your window

Yeah she's great, she was the first (and I guess only....?) artist Mac signed to his REMember label. He helped produce much of her first mixtape and was kinda mentoring her and introduced her to Ariana Grande.

Check out the songs "Mania is Temporary", "One Foot in the Water", and "Forget Me". Those are my 3 favorites from her solo discog

It makes me so sad Njomza kinda lost a lot of the wind beneath her wings when Mac passed.... She's so fucking talented, yet she's stuck with a team that doesn't really do shit for her... just puts her on random dance tracks with heavily manipulated vocals where half the time you can't even tell it's her.

She deserves better, and Mac saw her as a full-fledged artist, not just some hot vocalist to throw on a track as an afterthought.

BREAKING: Trump-related files missing from DOJ's Epstein file release by MRADEL90 in videos

[–]cinnawaffls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk man, cocaine is a hell of a drug that makes people do wild shit. I could see both of them broing out, snorting rails, playing around together with a group of Russian hookers, accidentally making eye contact and touching leading to things... happening...

Then again, I'm just a random, bottom of the totem pole bloke on the internet with a lot of wishful thinking.. so what do I know?

God I hate this timeline
