Meh some people just use it I just use it for Facebook marketplace and porn.

lol Universal studios already does this.

Yes, the only ships getting through before were Iranian or their allies like China. The real threat is if US allies like France or Japan cut separate deals with Iran to move their own ships through the strait. This would undermine the US position.

Blockading the strait cuts off China and keeps other nations from circumventing the US.

It’s kind of like when someone asks when do you need to respect kids privacy when they are changing. The right answer is whenever the kid signals they want privacy or asks for it.

I have a ten year old who still occasionally ends up in our bed at night. But he does it to be near our dog who usually also sneaks into bed with us at some point in the night.

As long as nothing was forced you are fine OP.

So uhhh where are you getting all these EMPs from?

Just act gay or trans and come into the recruiter wearing a Mexican flag.

Exactly which means superior build quality and a great experience. Parents will be snapping these up in the fall for back to school.

No legal argument is necessary. Just look at history. The rich and well connected have always lived by a different set of rules.

See below:

• Robert Richards (Du Pont heir): A 2014 Forbes article noted that a Du Pont heir, Robert Richards, pleaded guilty to raping his 3-year-old daughter in 2008 and received probation instead of jail time, which caused public outrage.
• August Busch IV: August Busch IV, a former Anheuser-Busch CEO, has been involved in past legal incidents, including a girlfriend’s overdose death at his house in 2010 and a car crash in 1983, but he was not charged with rape in these cases.

You aren’t wrong. But what you just described is exactly why most companies choose thin clients.

No customization, no unauthorized software installs, no distractions for staff and they will just run forever without major updates. All IT has to do is maintain a server or offsite cloud environment.

Would I personally want one… no. But I can see this as an alternative to non techie people who just need a cheap computer for email, web browsing and the occasional word document.

Walk into any office or business that runs off the cloud or a local server and they will likely have dozens… I mean dozens of these lying around.

I know the gaming community looks at these like a vampire looks at a rosary but it isn’t new tech or even a new concept.

I mean your tequila, la cocaína and siesta tech is pretty dope.

Shame they never leveled up the tech tree farther than that. It only took a handful of drunk conquistadors to wipe out the Aztec empire.

No problem, been doing it since we introduced the world to indoor plumbing, penicillin, electricity and space travel.

I love how non-Americans trash our MIC until some big bad shows up like Russia or China. When it’s their countrymen, fathers, brothers, sons and daughters who will be fighting bleeding and dying suddenly we become pretty popular…

But the current chapter does. Gaza would look a lot different today if the October 7th attack had not happened.

Shit it would look like a fucking paradise if they had taken one of the many two state solution deals they were offered.

You either didn’t read my comment from earlier in the thread or you enjoy trying to frame an argument.

I’ll post it below for you to read and educate yourself.

There have been two state solutions on the table with Jerusalem as the Palestinian capital on the table multiple times. Palestinians turned every one of them down. Instead of building their own state they will be further pushed out of Gaza. Where they go is anyones guess no one wants them, especially other Muslim states.

TLDR: Palestine will be wiped of the map unless they choose a different path. Israel isn’t going anywhere.

I guess we’ll see in 50 years which nation still exists.

Looks at all of Palestine’s immediate neighbors in the Middle East who won’t even lift a finger to even admit refugees.

I think I know where I’ll put my money.

Sucks to be on the wrong side of history. No one wants to loose their communities, property or livelihoods. However the Jews had a claim to the area going back thousands of years and they needed to go somewhere.

There were many Jewish communities across the Middle East prior to the 1940s that no longer exist anymore either. I wonder who pushed them out… do they get the same sentiment from your bleeding heart?

Maybe Hamas shouldn’t start shit.
