Oh yeah there's shots like that. But like, in general. I don't know just made me think of the day after tomorrow and yes it's was that.

I googled "the day after tomorrow storm " and it was one of the first image https://www.syfy.com/sites/syfy/files/styles/scale_862/public/2022/12/storm.jpg

So must've been in my subconscious or smth

Why would a satellite actually imaging storms want to place a satellite in the image as well?

I think its from some movie, like "the Day after Tomorrow" or something.

Because in movies you can have a shot of a satellite while showing a shot of the storm. I think that's fairly harder to do in real life, seeing you'd have to have two satellites perfectly in sync (and they go pretty fast) or a satellite (space stations are satellites as well) with a very long selfie stick.

Edit actually yah googled "the day after tomorrow storm" and this was one of the first images to pop up, the exact same image https://www.syfy.com/sites/syfy/files/styles/scale_862/public/2022/12/storm.jpg

Theres definitely a TikTok sketch in the idea "superhero insurance"

Oh. It's way worse than I thought, holy shit.

Thanks for the link, meowther. (I tried making it "brother" but with a cat pun, but that just looks like "mother", and I did not mean to convey the "ok, mom" sentiment. I'm still leaving it tho.)

It's paywalled.

Anyone got the full article?

I'd like to know why this happened. Even a flimsy excuse, some shit reasoning. Revenge on a rival gang or something?

Is that against the rules of war or something?

Yes. Very much so. Just poison in general is a war crime, let alone hiding it in chocolate.

https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/fr/customary-ihl/v2/rule72

Article 23(a) of the 1899 Hague Regulations provides: “It is especially prohibited … to employ poison or poisoned arms.”

He's saying there are none.

Which is when I wouldn't be posting this hot garbage, but I don't think he understands that by spreading this he's engaging in Russian propaganda, even when he's posting it to show us "what a crazy unfounded claim they made."

It's a bit like linking to some stupid influencer who you hate. Don't give them the attention, that's exactly what they want.

Same thing with these stories.

But looking at his profile I don't think he's pro-Russian. Just... silly.

I don't think there are many non-Americans in this thread who are surprised by this.

If the class had actually had any useful information in it, sure.

It was not the greatest class.

I completely agree. I wonder whether some IT bachelor's degrees now have lessons in AI prompting. I remember in 2005 there was a course we had to do which could've been labeled "[shitty] Google-Fu" or something. "information searching" is what it would more or less translate to. Basically searching using Google and library searches well. And I don't mean "library" in the IT-context, but actual libraries. With books. Just had to use the search tools the locals libraries had.

Such a fucking filler class.

In my year like 60 started, two classes. After three years like 8 graduated.

Luckily with the magic of the internet, your imagination need not be an issue.

You can just see them!

It lives in water with salt. The average ocean pH value is 8.1. It's a brain coated with a thin bit of goo.

My stomach is about 1.5 pH.

You could easily go through a waterslide, but if I change the water to be hydrochloric acid, you're not gonna come out as fresh as you went in. And most skin on the face and body has a pH of between 4.7 and 5.75.

 

Just something MAGA-people seem to have a hard time with sometimes. Probably not as much when Americans are speaking to themselves, but as a non-American, sometimes it's challenging to get "those people" to admit that there is indeed anything wrong with the US. As in they won't accept a single criticism, and will loudly proclaim "America is the greatest country in the world", while wearing a "Make America Great Again" hat, which for me pretty explicitly means America isn't great, if it has to be made to be such again.
