We deserve every bit of what's coming.

Gracie doesn't work and will never produce anything of value.

5:1

That's the normal number of brain cells to naught for brains'.

It's so we don't find out they stopped culling infected flocks because cheap eggs.

Just a hunch.

And he's even well qualified! But does he get along with Queen Elonia?

Blaming "atmospheric heaters" and "weather wars" is about as dumb as believing it's the imaginary sky fairy punishing us for DEI and gender identity.

Can't blame Nancy for selling NVIDIA, since it's been overvalued for some time.

Plus, for many, the fact that Trump

The current price is looking attractive.

GPUs are currently the most feasible means of running computations in parallel which is absolutely crucial to returning outputs at useful timescales.

Large language models (LLMs) are cool af, and clearly useful. But LLMs are just one application of neural networks and other machine learning methods.

GPUs are the best AI "brains" that we have. Until quantum computing lives up to the hype or we advance beyond silicon.

Not investing advice!

Farm and ranch has preference (or senior water rights) during dry periods, as opposed to natural waterfowl production areas (or equivalent). Particularly in the West. Waterfowl go where there is water, which is becoming more and more limited to farm and ranch and where we domesticate our animals.

Bunch a effin recidivists.

Project what?

And all of those people need to live in disaster prone areas?

You're exaggerating.

Critical infrastructure for extraction and refining of oil more likely requires workers in the hundreds of thousands, not millions. And that's nation wide.

But fine, let's give you a couple million, spread out across the disaster prone areas. The cost of rebuilding after disasters would be negligible compared to what it costs as it is now when 10s of millions are affected.

Oil products can be transported inland, again at a fraction of the cost compared to rebuilding after 10s of millions are affected.

Anyway, are you arguing for handing the Federal teat over to people who

choose

Not very MAGA! More socialist...

And, which common sense should tell you, I am not talking about shutting the entire coast down and kicking everybody out. But the high-density stuff has to go, or the people living there can eat ----- and I shouldn't have to pay for it. That's the American way.

You need millions of people to run oil refineries?

Yes, hundreds of billions of dollars per year. I meant total costs, not just what FEMA pays. Or did you forget we're only three weeks into 2025.

The cost [of natural disasters in 2024] was approximately $182.7 billion.

This total places 2024 as the fourth-costliest on record, trailing 2017 ($395.9 billion), 2005 ($268.5 billion) and 2022 ($183.6 billion). Adding the 27 events of 2024 to the record that begins in 1980, the U.S. has sustained 403 weather and climate disasters for which the individual damage costs reached or exceeded $1 billion. The cumulative cost for these 403 events exceeds $2.915 trillion.

Is rebuilding at the cost of hundreds of billions of dollars per year a reasonable solution? Eff no!

FEMA just helps enable millions of people to continue to live in areas that are getting hammered by more frequent and more costly natural disasters.

Adapt, or die. Or, just move inland. There's plenty of space in the Prairies and Intermountain West, if you can find water.

A representative government should represent a country's demographics.

A workforce that has diversity, differences in backgrounds, and differences in experiences is a more knowledgeable and adaptive workforce.

Diversity is not just about race and religion. It is also about including folks from the city, or folks from the country. Rich folks and folks with more modest backgrounds. Veterans and civilians. And yes, even conservative folks and liberal folks, Democrats and Republicans.

We limit our potential and resilience as a nation by filling our government with people who all think the same. The same goes for business.

Poor little guy, blue balls and hangry!

However, paying someone else to level you character is p2w - and should get you banned.

I don't know if PoE2 is open PVP, in that case I agree.

Otherwise, I don't care about some rich dude paying someone else to do the work. That's America.

It's Elon promoting and bragging about how he's some sort of world-class gamer. Like, in the top 10 in the world. He's a fraud.

Make America Feudal Again.

Which makes all you Trump humpers MAFAs.

Elon has bragged about what a world-class gamer he is on Rogan, Lex Friedman, and during the livestream while he was getting busted.

Gotta say, I'm rooting for Steve.

That said, what can he really do to Musk? Besides just complain and make fun of him, like the rest of us.

Somebody tell Zuck that allowing people to scream at you and tell you how to run your business and then crying about it on a podcast is not very masculine.

Instead of claiming we need more masculinity in business, Zuck should try growing himself a pair first and see how that works. There is plenty of masculinity all over business. Zuck is just a little bitch.

I think if we try for $2 trillion, we've got a good shot at getting one

Typical Elonia, over-promise and under-deliver.

This is why I won't buy Tesla stock. Everything is hype.

I'm guessing he's wondering if climate scientists are living in the areas they argue will be affected more severely by climate change.

It's not a very good question. For example, volcanologists warn us about the dangers and risk to life from volcanoes, yet they spend time on volcanoes.

Sometimes you want to be near the action, even if it's risky.

Is ignoring why there are devastating wildfires ONLY in CA and Canada Liberalism or leadership?

Are you being sarcastic, or are you really this dumb?

She's going for SCOTUS, obviously. He'll give it to her, too.

It sucks when crappy behavior is rewarded, but that's America today. We voted for it.
