Easier than you think with the NSAs reported reach into back end Internet systems.

They took apart the publicly available specs and put them back together. Battery tech idled for quite a while. There was freely available academic stuff on them. China isn’t going to expose itself where it doesn’t have to. They aren’t operating in good faith, but they aren’t dumb either.

China has spent a decade working on this though, they can’t steal battery tech because they are legitimately at the front of it.

The battery tech was out there. It was just an engineering problem and the legacy western companies refused to do it. China put the work in years before companies like Renault or Ford were serious about it. So there was no “leapfrog”. Our car companies just assumed China and India couldn’t do it. And they were wrong.

The dude tried to arrest key legislators, including from his own party. This was the world’s worst palace coup.

Eleven hours ago. What’s that old saying? Decades where nothing happens and days where decades happen?

For anyone out of the loop his regime fell a few hours after the above comment.

In normal countries

Police in the US have admitted that traffic stops are just a way to search people and find bigger charges. Cops like that are absolutely nosing around your phone.

Well no. I freely admit I’m posting about the absolute slop that is American public education.

It’s sparkling price fixing, totally different than still water price fixing.

Not in California, we specifically voted to lick that corporate boot.

Then they’re delusional. The Army dismantled AQ. It’s not going to have a problem with Y’allqaeda.

There is no hell deep enough, but this format makes it seem like he got significantly less than the 12 years he did get.

Look at his record.

He gave the Taliban everything they wanted and called it peace.

He gave Israel everything they wanted and called it peace.

He gave Turkey the green light to take Kurdish territory and called it peace.

He wants to give Putin everything he wants in Ukraine to call it peace.

Of course he’s going to withdraw US troops from Syria/Kurdistan and call it peace. That’s what he does.

I have never heard of an economy class in high school. And our math teacher did a tiny thing on compound interest in general when we finished a quiz early.

So I don’t know what school you went to but it wasn’t the normal one.

It’s different in different regions and it’s certainly moved around over the years.

And the point remains, we graduate students who know what the powerhouse of a cell is but not how to do their taxes, work a 401k, put together a realistic budget, plan for major purchases, make a work schedule, or have any saleable skills other than being able bodied.

We aren’t preparing people for life, we’re warehousing them until college and if they don’t go to college we just shove them into the cracks.

When the main line collapses in medium to small countries it goes really quick.

Because standing armies was a no go in 1792.

We’re cautiously hopeful about HTS because the reports from the Christian minority is that they are being tolerant of them.

That’s possible. It’s a crazy world. There was a school shooting in California because a man was convinced he worked for a secret government agency responsible for executing children.
