  1. Or, you know, move on to renewables and away from O&G entirely before Kansas and Alberta become coastal states.
  2. Who cares? It’s the internet. For all we know, they’re genetically modified kittens who learned to type. All that matters is WHAT gets posted, not WHO posted it.
  3. This isn't a brain teaser. Chickens also didn't magically appear out of thin air.
  4. Energy supply is the thing to watch here, IMO. If EU countries (esp. Germany) can hold strong and survive lack of Russian oil and gas, then Putin crumbles. If, however, domestic protests cause EU governments to cave and start buying Russian O&G again due to price concerns of their citizens, then Putin survives. Amplifying this risk: Russian trolls have become very good at stirring up “grassroots” protests in other countries that could push this more quickly (aka: astroturfing). Suppressing this risk: US and other countries releasing 60 Million barrels of O&G from strategic petroleum reserves and showing a willingness to release more. Almost certainly. Seizures of super yachts, private jets, and luxury apartments are already happening. Nobody likes it when people start messing with and taking away their toys, especially the ultra wealthy.
  5. Probably not. He’s been downright dictatorial and authoritarian in his separation from the infected and isolation against risk. As for the rest of your post… yeah, no.
  6. US has banned all Russian flights from entering the country, and in parallel Boeing announced an end to all maintenance and flight assistance for Russian airlines.
  7. Sometimes symbolism and protest is worth more than rubles, especially today
  8. Then again… we are the universe expressing itself as a human being for a little while. (~E.Tolle)
  9. He’s conflating conservation principles with reincarnation. It’s just sloppy silliness.
  10. This isn’t physics. It’s not even interesting. We’re all star dust. On another note, you need a blog, not a discussion forum.
  11. Fairly certain it's not the brain of the "savior" that's "deadish."
  12. Yep, and that argument was specious, unfounded, and plainly wrong, too. Lol. You should worship Frankenstein, not Jesus or Mo
  13. Let's start by you clarifying whether you're asking about robots or humans.
  14. Good lord. It's no wonder religiosity is so inversely proportional to educational attainment.
  15. There are different methods when auditing information. Here is a synopsis of the main ones. Was that really so hard???
  16. Thanks for confirming. I was curious
  17. Agreed. You should do better when expressing yourself.
  18. When Mitch McConnell blocked Barack Obama from appointing Merrick Garland to the Supreme Court in 2016 due to being within 11 months of an election (a principle they quickly forgot once Trump was in office), someone said, "Apparently McConnell thinks black presidents only get 3/5ths of a term."
  19. They're known as yes-men, also sycophants.
  20. The "Julius Caesar" solution doesn't strike me as likely given that his inner circle is small enough to include only like 2 other people right now, but a popular uprising could definitely get more popular and achieve the same outcome.
  21. Then they need do little more than wait along the border with Belarus where he's about to meet (has already met?) with Russia to discuss options
  22. https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/negative-views-russia-cold-war-levels-amid-ukraine/story?id=83108605
  23. And yet even members of my own immediate family all day are posting stuff like this: Turns out “patriot” as a term is being rapidly co-opted to mean white supremacist… the way neonazis and KKK members refer to themselves
  24. iNow replied to Agent Smith's topic in Engineering
    Lol. Quoted for truth
