Exclusive: US to send depleted-uranium munitions to Ukraine (www.reuters.com)

The use of depleted uranium munitions has been fiercely debated, with opponents like the International Coalition to Ban Uranium Weapons saying there are dangerous health risks from ingesting or inhaling depleted uranium dust, including cancers and birth defects.

ThePac ,

Even as they’re burying your neighbors in mass graves? Interesting…

ThePac ,

I thought y’all had separation of church and state.

Oh, honey…

ThePac ,

Yet they are not mutually exclusive.

ThePac ,

What a simple, stupid argument.

ThePac , (edited )

One might say you yourself are obfuscating the meaning behind pro-russian rhetoric.

ThePac ,

That’s your question? Not “how do you shoot a kid through your front door?”

ThePac ,

Oooh a "no u’ in the wild. Spicy AND convincing!

ThePac ,

Am I the only person that thinks this meme doesn’t make sense? Hulk’s giving Antman tacos because Antman lost his tacos and would very much appreciate the generous offer.

I believe in the possibility of a creator, be it a single omniscient/omnipresent/omnipowerful/etc being or some natural process we do not understand.

But do I have enough evidence to swear fealty to any particular thing that might occupy this role? Fuck no.

ThePac ,

Consciousness fits most definitions of supernatural

No. In fact it quite strongly fits within the definiton of natural as we can plainly see it in our natural world and be affected by natural processes.

ThePac ,

What do you think the difference between atheism and agnosticism is??

Generally none. I assume the “agnostic” part whenever someone says they are an atheist.

Now gnostic atheism is a different beast entirely.

ThePac ,

The quran also says to kill infidels. You good with that?

Stopped clock and all that.

ThePac ,

Look at the trees!

ThePac ,

Those are two things; evolution and abiogenesis. We have evolution well sorted, to the point where our entire understanding and implementation of biological science depends on it.

Abiogenesis is not as well fleshed out, but we are miles ahead on it now than we were even 20 years ago. Do we have a strict, proven explanation and timeline? No, not yet. Do we have nothing? Not even close. Is it worth throwing our hands up and going “I don’t know, therefore god”? I don’t think so.

I think you’ll find that most believers of intelligent design and a God being don’t think about it too hard. Obviously there are plenty of apologists in the world whos job it is to discuss and debate this stuff, but they are the faaaaar minority and most have a financial stake in the matter.

For evolution take a look at Gutsick Gibbon on youtube and for abiogensis look up Forrest Valkai. They’re both incredible educators.

ThePac ,

Not only desires, but demands it and threatens eternal torture if you don’t give it to them. An important distinction.

ThePac ,

You felt relief without actively doing anything to right any of the wrongs you thought about. That sounds like repression. How is it moral to offload your wrongdoings of others onto a diety instead of attempting to make amends with the offended?

ThePac ,

I’m sure the tortured masses of Unit 731 would be happy to know their suffering offered scientists more data points and we really needed kids to be raped and murdered, you know… for all the shit it teaches us.

ThePac ,

That’s just being a good person. No god required.

ThePac ,

I do miss driving a manual, however EV one-pedal driving has its own gamifying aspects.

My notification sound is the “YEAH”. I can’t watch the movie scene anymore the yeah has become its own thing.

ThePac ,

Give this movie a shot. Is not your typical Robin Williams.

ThePac ,

One of my favs!

ThePac ,

It’s true. At least he’s not in all of it?

The movie is so good.

ThePac ,

You people think it will be a night and day collapse? Get real. The rich will continue to get richer and you’ll toil away in relative comfort as you do now.

ThePac ,

What is this garbage?

ThePac ,

ELON BAD

ThePac ,

What a stupid take, but par for the r/technology course.

EDIT: The steel ball thing was terrible optics, granted, but that was also, like, the 5th time that ball was thrown at the window. Bullet-proof glass still spiderwebs when hit. Get over it.

ThePac , (edited )

there are only 4 of them and they all look the same

Oh noooooo. Thanks for that single issue that’s entirely subjective.

Meanwhile; they provide the best performance for the price, putting exotics 0-60 to shame. Have the best charging infrastructure. Get great range despite the recent hit pieces. And, for some subjective IMO goodness, are super fucking cool. I love the infotainmentcontrolwhatever way they handle things.

But no, they’re just copy/paste pieces of shit. All hail anybody but Elon!

ThePac ,

You’re 100% right but don’t expect r/technology to accept it.

ThePac ,

Saving your comment so I can get a good laugh when it is released.

ThePac ,

Yep, r/tech… er… c/technology. Same thing.

ThePac ,

You know he’s never going to marry you though, right?

What? I thought you said this WASN’T r/technology?

ThePac ,

the amount of defects

Please list them, and don’t bother with panel gaps that are either fixed for free on the spot or not long after.

When you pay $45k and up on a product, it should not have a single defect.

Somebody better tell this to Rivian and Polstar or, shit, any. other. manufacturer.

nowhere near the listed range in their advertisements. so bad they are facing a lawsuit over it

Get back to me when that lawsuit is resolved. I will say, I’m supposed to get 333 miles from my Model 3 LR and it’s closer to 280. There is reserve battery past 0% but we shouldn’t count that.

They also have issues locking drivers in the vehicle when the battery dies

Yes we all saw the article posted here a couple days ago. Curious, did you see the posts about how there are manual releases easily found and if you can’t find them you’re kiiiiiiiind of an idiot?

They’re cool the first time you drive one sure

Sorry, still cool 2 years later

have caused several life ending accidents involving their self driving software

Another sign you’ve bought into the bullshit. Manual controls override all AP/FSD activity and the drivers were at fault of every single crash. Find me a single instance where the driver was found to interrupt the system and it ignored them.

So keep on sucking his dick

You’re just admitting that you’re doing the polar opposite of sucking Elon’s dick. You’ve proved you’ve bought every single hit piece that came out. Congrats. I’m going to continue enjoying my marvel of engineering.

ThePac ,

I couldn’t give a fuck about Musk. He could die tomorrow and I’d say “Good for him.” What I think is hilarious is the assumption by you and others in these comments that my drive to correct them stems from some love of the ugy.

Sort yourself out.

ThePac ,

I see inferring from context isn’t your strong suite.

ThePac ,

Again, reading comprehension… get some. My original “All hail anybody but Elon!” was aimed generally at the migrated r/technology chuds.

ThePac ,

Agreed.

ThePac ,

I’m somewhere between the whipper and the whipee.

ThePac ,

I think it was really in reference to any modified Japanese car back in the 00’s. Haven’t heard that term in a while, though.

ThePac , (edited )

If zelensky would care about his people he would come to the table and find an agreement with the other side.

The agreement being Russia gets the fuck out of Ukraine you. fucking. invaders.

ThePac ,

If by “defends its people” you mean “uses it as an excuse to invade the entire country of Ukraine” then… sure.

You know the ground war would stop immediately if Russia got out of Ukraine, yes?

Numerous Tesla owners say they've been trapped inside their EVs after they lost power. (www.businessinsider.in)

Numerous Tesla owners say they’ve been trapped inside their EVs after they lost power.::Numerous Tesla owners say they have been trapped inside their EVs after they lost power.Teslas come with manual door releases, but they can be hard to find

ThePac ,

Listen, r/technology needs its antimusk fix, OK? Teslas are pig piles of shit and people who likes theirs are simply too stockholmedf/sunkcost/whatever to see it.

ThePac ,

The manual door release can be tricky to find unless you’ve combed through your car’s owner’s manual.

Absolute horseshit. Practically every person who gets out of my car for the first time goes for the manual handle. I have to make a point to tell them to use the button.

ThePac ,

I have a 3. Again, I have to tell people to use the button the first (and 2nd, and on) time they get out. They go right for the manual release which is where, as I said, you would expect.

ThePac ,

20 year old cars can drop the window slightly when the door is opened

sigh

It does. If there is no power or somebody swings the door open super fast it can damage/break the window. Generally it’s fine.

ThePac ,

Next time you’re in the front seat take a wild guess.
