๐๐๐๐ Jews have been in Israel longer than Islam has even existed. And they built modern day Israel.
I'm talking about Jews obviously. They're over-represented in pretty much every worthwhile, productive, part of US society. There's a wonderful part in the recent Oppenheimer movie where they explicitly discuss how the Nazis are screwing themselves over because so many of their top scientists were Jews. And it's absolutely historically accurate too. Letting pro-Hamas/anti-Israeli nutjobs force the Jewish population of the US out would be an economic disaster, to say the least.
Yup. ...and like it or not but almost all "support for Gaza" is just support for Hamas, who are _clearly_ a dangerous terrorist group with a long history of mass murder.
It's perfectly reasonable for countries to pick and choose who they accept as new residents and citizens. Irrational hated of one of the most successful parts of American society is a pretty good grounds for not allowing you in. Besides, when you actually look into the details of these deportations they appear to be pretty much all for more than just saying wrong things. Eg organizing protests involving clearly illegal acts like trespassing on private property, vandalism, violence, material support of terrorists, etc.
Why make an exchange? You can just force them out and let Jews continue to live where they've lived for thousands of years. Indeed, Israel can expand. Gaza owes Israel an enormous amount of money in damages. Gaza giving up land to pay for those damages would be fair.
(and no, the Nobel Peace Prize doesn't count)
Look up the number of Nobel prizes awarded to Muslims vs Jews. We have _far_ more to lose if the Jewish population is driven out than if a bunch of people with a social media history of anti-Semitism and anti-Israelism get their visas cancelled.

"no noticable secondary explosions" Dude, we have solid evidence there was a massive shockwave that damaged buildings hundreds of meters outside the base. Just look at the videos. Obviously, Ukraine blew up a lot of Russian explosives; nothing Ukraine can deliver has that much punch.
There's plenty of geolocates footage of the attack and its consequences. Not hard to figure out how much explosives likely went off and compare it to likely sources. https://video.nostr.build/fa520739eaf3c21eb839e4735ccb93eb7bdeee584c4628c6b8d1ada7741fa206.mp4 https://video.nostr.build/474ce69fa1c3172e296ad42aad217b76db76dace6451be53098dea11e3c0bcb1.mp4 https://video.nostr.build/c9f474ac0922e2f60ffd616637ca8227418bec096c03767631db1ab243c7de87.mp4
https://www.forbes.com/sites/davidaxe/2025/03/27/the-triple-tap-raid-on-the-engels-bomber-base-cost-russia-96-billion/ $960 million worth of equipment destroyed, so 0.7% if Russia's entire (official) military budget lost in a single set of attacks. In fairness, getting to the point where Ukraine could repeatedly hit of Russia's biggest and more important airbases certainly took a lot of preparation destroying anti-air systems between Ukraine and that airbase. But still, impressive.

Huh? No-one uses escalators for air stairs. The purpose of the motor is just to raise the stairs into position to match the height of the plane.
I wouldn't be surprised if solar powered air stairs actually save money: being self-refueling you don't have to pay someone to go around with a gas can periodically. And they're probably less maintenance than having an engine. But green? ๐
โ100% electric stairs for a green futureโ Yeah... that jet engine in the background probably puts out more CO2 in a minute than gasoline powered air stairs use in a year. https://image.nostr.build/5c0408ccdc673ca95479e809df51bd5785186a5f9a2fe6461bb139534f15dfec.jpg
Is there anything different between this and any other USB-C flash drive? (other than hopefully not having any backdoors)

Central banks could entirely remove the risk of this all collapsing over bank failures by offering zero risk euro accounts... They're obviously not going to do that to prop up the banking industry. nostr:nevent1qqs0lpkm5233tmx8xfve5zrk2c5dn8s3upxq4dfaf9ew3ecectafg4gppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qgspna4hqgceekrtap3g2m42w5qlvp9m6jfkuqrwjxxvuyum9fgd8zqrqsqqqqqpj658t8

Free covid testing center at Washington Dulles airport, in 2025, paid for by the US government. DOGE recently cut funding for research that was finding the estimated 35,000 children that Russia has abducted. This would have been a much more useful thing to cut... Also, high chance that Trump wanted that research cut specifically to make it easier to sell "peace" with Russia. It's easier to sell "peace" with people who aren't insane psychopaths that abduct children by the tens of thousands to further the aim of genocide. There's probably something like 100,000+ Russians directly involved in that crime who should all be executed.

The thing is with keys alone you're not proving that data was created by an _device_. But rather, just by a key. That by itself doesn't mean anything. To actually prove something about a device is a difficult key validation problem.
