Can we stop inventing fake shit please? The US has never been a force against evil except for that one time 80 years ago.

Well they dont lol, they are super flimsy these days and most stuff is soldered on. Its good if this turns out to be the start of the return to good thinkpads, but i wouldnt get my hopes up yet.

Thats nonsense, there are plenty of phones and tablets with usbc video output. Its been a feature for like a decade. Other companies have had working desktop modes for a long time and google just abandoned their work on it until they decided they could use it as a marketing feature. They probably just didnt want the pixel to cut into the chromebook marketshare.

There is no such thing as a “defensive” aircraft carrier. Also they said they will strike Iranian targets to disable their missile capabilities.

I mean yeah, but how do you know its just not the current government using the US military to suppress their opposition? I know that Ecuador has real problems, but i doubt the US is doing this out of good will.

Bouldering is the goat sport for this. Lots of little downtime in between routes which leaves room for talking. But you also always have something to talk about and compliment etc.

The 4 (iirc) also had USBC video out but google removed that functionality only to now have a reason to sell you a new phone. I hope its actually good and they publish source for it as part of AOSP, otherwise this news is fucking useless.

US - Spain war when lol? Maybe Spain should just preemptively blow up that base just to be sure it wont be used against them in the future.

Just saw this german satire article and it was the perfect fit.

The title translates to: “Mysterious: Prices for wind and solar stable despite Iran war”

https://www.der-postillon.com/2026/03/wind-sonne.html

The rest of the article as translated by firefox:

With the Iran war, heating oil, gas and gasoline prices are rising in this country. On the other hand, the situation is different in terms of wind and solar: so far, despite the bitter conflict in the sunny and wind-rich Middle East, prices have remained remarkably stable here.

“We cannot yet say exactly why this is,” explains energy expert Ottfried Müller. “Although the road is blocked by Hormuz and deliveries from the Middle East are currently difficult, somehow the wind and the sun still seem to reach Germany.”

Despite the conflict, photovoltaic systems, solar panels and wind turbines continue unabated, while the price of petrol at the petrol stations has already climbed to over 2 euros locally.

“Perhaps the federal government has succeeded in opening up new wind and solar suppliers in record time?” Müller suspects cautiously. “Or has Economy Minister Reiche created a strategic reserve of sun and wind in solar and wind storage facilities, which makes us independent for the first time?”

Nevertheless, experts urge caution: At the moment, it cannot be completely ruled out that Donald Trump next gives the order to attack the sun.

Wow such insight, never would have guessed. Thanks headline.

Another reason to pile onto the huge pile of reasons to phase out fossil fuels. They are just too volatile and unstable. If you depend on them you need a constant uninterrupted flow of them or you are completely fucked.

Sure solar and wind and such have their own supply chain risks, but even if China gets mad, the infrastructure we already built will keep running for many years before needing replacement. It completely removes the risk of short term existential threat political tactics.

FYI Qatar is fucking tiny, its basically just one big city with a bunch of desert next to it. There arent necessarily duplicates for this kind of infrastructure.

Its more like a few thousand devices, not 30-40 but ye.

Just a lil vacation trip for our poor lil soldiers :3

I mean not any more of a dipshit then he was before. I really dont prefer one of the two, both are shitty countries to go to war for.

Its not a “nazi problem” if its 99% of the party. Its just a nazi party at that point and they dont see it as a problem.

Who needs a buttplug when you have butthole snakes.

Exactly, because as cool as this donation is, 3.6M$ is basically nothing when it comes to public infrastructure like that.

And i guess the 2.5M$ are campaign donations that came from a link attached to the youtube video?

Flightradar type tracking sites i assume. Until they actually engage militarily, they will have their tracking signal broadcasting as usual i would hope.
