The Curtis Yarvin / Peter Thiel “Dark Enlightenment” was overtly anti-democracy and had some dollars behind it, but has been a clown show of an ideology from the start (over 15 years ago) and has only withered more in daylight.
Whether it’s morally right, there’s a wide canyon between proposing an entire alternative political system, and deplatforming people on X or Starlink.
So why even mention your million rounds as a reply to “I just fired a gun right next to your head, neither of us was wearing ear protection and now we’re having a conversation at normal volume”? Talk about ignorant.
You realize it’s a function of distance and that function is logarithmic, right? A gunshot at one foot is a hundred times louder than it is at 20 feet. If you were exposed to a million gunshots of any caliber from a foot away, you would be profoundly deaf.
I’ve shot a few thousand rounds. 9mm is very loud. Shoot it in a closed space just once without earpro and you will cause permanent damage to your hearing.
I don’t think a million round sample size would help you in judging this.
You have a right to a cat. If you do not have one, one will assign itself to you.
My god what an embarrassing take
Some Peavey amps do go to 12
Never updating your browser again is a pretty bad idea when it comes to security
I hope this email finds you before I do
Very definitely not, emails (and texts and a bunch of other electronic comms) are discoverable as evidence and routinely used to bury people under the jail
Woodland critter noises 😄
As long as that’s the labor the immigrants are intending to do… Otherwise you get a situation like Canada has where IT professionals from India arrive to find they have few job prospects but still need a place to live.
Nice, has pbthal vinyl rip torrents active
There was nothing wrong with the halogen and I’ll die on that hill. Ever since they abandoned it, it’s been an arms race, and the aftermarket drop-ins are the worst offenders. I’ve resigned myself to never seeing anything on the highway shoulder because of the intensity of oncoming traffic’s headlights.
Watch next year’s models have LTE modems…for your convenience of course
Well you’re replying to me, so I’ll take a crack at it. The whole purpose of the federal government is to represent the states, and the intention of the electoral colleges is to balance their interests. If the national popular vote was the only thing that mattered, there would be almost no reason for candidates to care about policy issues that uniquely affect states with smaller populations like Alaska.
Good thing the number for California is not correct…
Your math for California is off by a factor of ten. California’s per-capita electoral votes would be 0.00000141025
There’s a minimum representation of votes (3) for statehood. In Alaska’s case there are a large number of natives who are directly affected by policy at the federal level. The state is also very important strategically for defense and energy production.
California electoral votes: 55
Alaska electoral votes: 3
What that would really mean is an erosion of the tax base and possibly a demographic crisis.
But I seriously doubt that the population of
