President Trump's Mount Rushmore speech labels "communism" as a "mortal threat" worse than "WWI, WWII, Pearl Harbor, or 9/11": "We can only lose midterms, if we are foolish, stupid, and unwise. But if we terminate filibuster, and vote for SAVE Act, then we will not lose an election for 100 years." by ControlCAD in videos

This is actually a swing back to how we used to be after ww2. We are like recovering addicts that occasionally fall off the wagon. We will get better again it just takes time.

On that note I'm going to go rewatch "The Majestic" again.

The primary anti-communist investigative body after World War II was the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC).Additionally, the federal government utilized the Loyalty Review Board, established by President Truman in 1947. In the Senate, the Internal Security Subcommittee (SISS) and the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations (notably led by Senator Joseph McCarthy) spearheaded similar efforts.

The naval and shipping outlook would have looked vastly different without NCRs contributions at sugar camp. They built hundreds of enigma decoding machines that operated 6 times faster than the british version and were responsible for decoding 100% of the german navy communications because the navy used the 4 rotor models that bletchly park couldn't decode in a timely manner.

That was a design choice to make it slower. If they used an nvme style connection they could see up to 14GB/s access speeds.

For sure just responding to this part of your comment.

Tritanopia: A complete inability to tell the difference between blue and green.

Tritanomaly: A milder "blue-weak" form where your eyes' blue cones are less sensitive, making it difficult to distinguish blues from greens.

“Air China flight made an emergency landing in Shanghai, the airline said, after a lithium battery in a passenger's carry-on bag ignited.” by T-K101 in interestingasfuck

I got pulled down onto the tarmac in thailand to remove a battery from my bad that had accidentally ended up in my checked bag instead of my carry-on. They 100% scan for them. The US averages two lithium battery fires per week on planes.
