If practical uses drove the cost platinum and pallidium would still cost more than gold, (they did for some years around 2001,) as they are catalysts for chemical processes, and can be used like gold to handle high currents without burning up.

Silver actually has a lower specific resistance than gold and platinum and the like, it can handle high voltages though not as much as gold and platinum.

The administration made the call. Jesus christ, how fucking stupid are we that we believe the administration lies put out that they didn't do this.

First of all, they control starshield, the military version. Second, if musk ordered it, he was told to by the administration, that just made a deal with russia. I shouldn't have to explain that.

Even the left are fucking sheep apparently.

I can't disagree with that at all. I don't think any reasonable person could.

How much you want to bet they also scan frequencies and log all electronics and such in an area?

There is no question, it's silicon valley, there are no guardrails, no regulations to speak of. Worst case for them they have to give the feds a cut after the justice department lets them not admit fault.

No, the democractic party is overwhelmingly not "left." They are the controlled opposition, in a game that the republicans are no longer playing, they are playing overthrow the republic, while the democrats are still playing oligarch monopoly.

Pillow magnate guy already got the inner workings of all the voting machines in 2020 and they reverse engineered them all from the swing states, likely all the red states too. GA I think, MI, CO, AZ, and so forth.

It's just one facet of their plans to rig elections (moreso.)

You underestimate how little the authorities care about the rules. They would still charge for it, not that we shouldn't do it anyway.

Do you even have to ask? Tesla sucks, it's being held up because it's a gambling stock, a meme stock, it has no fundamentals, it's P/E ratio is astronomical. Their flagship product was a flop.

This flying car thing is a joke, but his fan boys will eat that shit up. I can't wait for the market to correct, but I can because we just know the feds will bail them all out, and that follows for a democratic government too I'm afraid if history is any judge, and it is.

The pee tape is hardly the most damaging I'm sure, a pee tape wouldn't even register, he would say deep fake and his supporters would buy it.

I bet it's more fucking underage girls, with backup evidence and not just recordings. Plus dirty business deals but that wouldn't register either.

Yes, and threatened, criminal prosecutions for not letting the feds cancel votes without evidence, despite the fact that States Run their own Elections. As per the constitution.

This is in your face election rigging to those of us in reality, a dwindling and put upon group no doubt.

This strike might be the catalyst for more violence I'm afraid, tit for cat if you will.

They have to quash dissent as they are getting their asses handed to them by a rebel group in the most impoverished place in the region that they have been bullying for decades, quite unsuccessfully this last one.

It became a metaphor back around when they released Empire, Total War, (edit: 2012 ish maybe,) and the disk meant nothing and just sent you to Steam to download it, forcing you to keep steam on your computer that tried to run at all times, and make you ask for permission every time you wanted to play the game, revocable at any moment I presume.

I've only heard El Sayed talk a few times, but he's got a good speaking voice. He's also fucking ripped. I'd like to see Markwayne pick a fight with him.

I wouldn't take those allegations of assassination attempts at face value, something stinks, especially with the rooftop guy story. It was staged, that fight fight fight thing? Choreographed. His ear wasn't shot, especially not with an AR round. Probably scraped it on an agent as they pulled him to the ground.

The golf course one was suspect as well. Don't believe the justice department. I shouldn't have to tell you that.

They are really asking for it.

I think GTA, and this most anticipated release of a game in perhaps ever, really fucked up in screwing over their union right before the release, (last I heard, in passing,) and are similarly just asking to be pirated.

Too bad there isn't a good source of tofu in most grocer markets. Soy is one of the most suspect crops,with pesticides and such to start, and there just aren't many buying options, and they are all expensive-er than they should be.

A pound is like a couple of bucks, but a pound isn't that much really. Making your own isn't really practicable, I saw a video on how they make it traditionally in East Asia and it's a big thing with many steps.

They feed the leftovers to livestock when they do so though so you both may be right.

They have charged people with major crimes for that. For inducing their phone to wipe itself when they are looking at it.

Strangers didn't agree to their terms so they can't. Not that it matters, nothing matters, except money, apparently.
