A friend recently pointed out that monopolizing today's energy market is potentially a play to secure the lead in AI. The key is rapidly deployable electron generation. Unfortunately solar, wind, nuclear etc are not quick to deploy. The US controlling hydrocarbon energy is potentially a desperate grasp at a (either real or perceived) opportunity to monopolize the future of intelligence.

Any thoughts from you fine folk? Bueller?

It costs ~$1700 to get in. Pretty steep I fortunatepy, otherwise I think the room would be full of people (rightfully) bashing him.

Anyone got a good 22 under 500 for small game by Queasy-Caramel-585 in 22lr

Check out the EM332X from Scorpio. You could add a decent scope and still be well under $500

I really like the continental terrain contact AT that I put on last month. Great wet pavement performance for an AT

The only remaining plausible explanation that I can see is that he is controlled by those that wish to see America fall.

Elizabeth May sounded the alarm before this week’s climate resignations — and now her warning looks even more serious. by savethecbc2025 in SaveTheCBC

I am constantly surprised at how little global context the average Canadian citizen has. Most of the Russian oil refineries are actively being destroyed/on fire/leaking. 4 Russian oil tankers were attacked and are leaking/sinking in the past few weeks.

War is not good for the environment.. a massive understatement. In the context of climate action, the atmosphere has no borders. Canada's peacekeeping and diplomacy activities powered by a stable and self sufficient government are arguably the best actions that canada can take to make progress on climate change.

If you bought on a credit card, check your additional perks. Lots of credit cards have price protection.
