Professor Postol explains that the Golden Dome is a political idea with no technical value, designed to appeal to Trump's supporters by giving the impression that it would protect the US from nuclear threats.
A big worry is that the imbeciles in charge of the US might actually think these defenses work and act more recklessly in a crisis, which could lead to a world ending miscalculation.

I used to really enjoy sites like this. I know there's joke accounts on Twitter and other sites here and there, but I haven't seen anything lately that has the whole site as one big running gag.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q%26A_co…
A Q&A website is a website where the site creators use the images of pop culture icons, historical figures, fictional characters, or even inanimate objects or abstract concepts to answer input from the site's visitors, usually in question/answer format. This format of website, most popular in the early 2000s, evolved from the much older Internet Oracle. The original progenitor of this type of site was the now-defunct Forum 2000. The Forum 2000 claimed to have run the site by means of artificial intelligence, and the personalities on the website were called SOMADs, or "State Of Mind Adjointness pairs". However, later Q&A sites usually dispensed with this pretense, with the most extreme example being Jerk Squad!, on which the administrators of the site provide many of the answers.

While two man-babies in the US throw their tantrums and transfix the profit driven drama machines of the US corporate media, a group of courageous and compassionate human rights activists are confronting Israel head on in an attempt to bring aid and draw attention to the ongoing genocide.
Our attention should be focused on Gaza, not the drama of the two US man-babies (apologies to babies everywhere).

« La #gauche est devenue aussi mensongère et hypocrite que la #bourgeoisie parce qu’elle continue à proclamer sa vertu, la défense des pauvres. Elle continue à s’affirmer comme le représentant des classes misérables. Mais elle ment. Elle défend et soutient exclusivement ce qui peut la servir, ceux qui sont utilisables soit pour sa propagande, soit pour l’action directe. Elle utilise les pauvres exactement comme le capitalisme. Elle les exploite. Elle les fait marcher sans leur dévoiler ses vrais objectifs. Elle leur ment jour après jour. » « On n’avait pas en 1936 ou en 1945 le droit de dire que le communisme stalinien était une dictature sanguinaire et que les camps de concentration y étaient équivalents à ceux du nazisme. On n’a pas le droit aujourd’hui de dire que la Chine est une dictature de fer et que les camps de concentration y sont florissants. Chutt… cela servirait les ennemis de la révolution. La gauche est engagée jusqu’au cou dans le mensonge. Elle ne représente en rien les pauvres. Elle ne les défend en rien. Elle a substitué pour eux, à l’illusion religieuse du paradis céleste à venir, l’illusion politique du paradis terrestre à venir. La gauche est l’exact équivalent de l’Église bourgeoise du XIXe siècle, à l’égard des pauvres. Elle en présente les mêmes caractères et mérite le même mépris. Parmi les pauvres, exactement comme pour les bourgeois chrétiens du XIXe siècle, il y a les bons pauvres, ceux qui marchent dans la combine, ceux qui sont les bons moutons de la révolution, ceux dont la situation peut être exploitée comme facteur de propagande. Et puis les mauvais pauvres, ceux qui refusent, dans un régime communiste, de se trouver bien ceux qui se révoltent à tort et à travers simplement parce qu’ils sont malheureux et sans tenir compte des plans de la révolution mondiale, ceux qui représentent des valeurs et une culture traditionnelles. Tous ceux-là il faut simplement les réprimer, les refouler. » « Il est vrai que la gauche ne prétend plus le moins du monde être révolutionnaire. Elle a enterré la révolution, et s’apprête paisiblement à occuper le pouvoir pour continuer. Mais il faut aller plus loin. Non seulement elle n’est plus révolutionnaire, mais elle occupe maintenant un rôle tout à fait précis : sa fonction dans la société moderne est de bloquer la révolution. La gauche, des radicaux jusqu’au PC, PSU compris, a reçu délégation tacite du corps social entier pour que la révolution ne puisse pas avoir lieu. Les meilleurs gardiens de l’establishment ce sont les partis de gauche et les syndicats. Pensez donc, si ces partis arrivent au pouvoir ce ne peut être que grâce au jeu des institutions mêmes ! Comment ne les garderait-on pas avec le plus grand soin ? Bien entendu, je ne dis pas qu’il y a une connivence explicite, et une formulation claire de ce rôle. Les bourgeois font toujours semblant d’avoir très peur du PC. Mais combien il est rassurant, ce brave PC ! Il ne fait plus peur à personne, et la bourgeoisie sait très bien que l’on pourra dorénavant s’entendre avec lui. Il faut seulement avoir l’air d’avoir peur pour que l’idée de son opposition et de sa révolution soit « crédible », c’est-à-dire pour que les forces de révolte qui existent dans la société puissent être fixées, catalysées, bloquées sur le PC et de ce fait ne s’exercent pas en tant que forces de révolte, ailleurs, sur un autre point et de façon incontrôlable. La gauche est le grand paratonnerre anti-révolutionnaire. »

I've been taking modafinil off and on for the last 10 years now, usually with a prescription, sometimes without, and it's been very helpful. I get about 6 hours of good use out of it as far as ADHD symptoms and such, it'll keep me awake for about 8 hours.
armodafinil kicks in a little quicker, lasts longer (I can get a good 10 hours out of it, and it can keep me up for 12), and makes me sweat a lot less than either Provigil or ephedrine. I had been waiting for it to come off patent in the states, and it did over the last 2 years so now I can play with it.
I'm not going to sit here and talk about sources, but test your shit. something I got from an overseas vendor tested positive for methamphetamine once (might have been mdma, my test can't tell the difference but either way, test your shit}

Le PS a réformé massivement tout au long des années 1980, en faveur du capital : il a mis fin au contrôle des crédits et des taux d’intérêts et a déréglementé les marchés financiers. Il a légalisé les produits dérivés à l’origine de la crise de 2008. Il a soutenu le traité de Maastricht qui nous a fait perdre notre indépendance monétaire et nous a livrés pieds et poings liés aux emprunts auprès des marchés financiers. Et dans le même temps, il a désindexé les salaires des prix.

At the re:publica internet conference, Federal Digital Minister Karsten Wildberger (CDU) took up the cudgels for greater digital sovereignty in Germany and Europe. He wants to make open standards and open source the "guiding principle", emphasized the former CEO of Ceconomy (MediaMarkt and Saturn) on Tuesday in Berlin.
All the discussions he has had in his four weeks in office "include precisely these topics". The urgency to become more independent of traditional software providers, cloud service providers and big tech companies from the USA is "greater than ever". However, it will not be possible to simply flip a switch here. Rather, it is possible to raise awareness for change.
According to Wildberger, German and European IT solutions offer the opportunity to create platforms and build technologies that are based on "our values". He specifically mentioned freedom, the rule of law, justice, openness, the social market economy and a functioning community. What is needed is a Germany stack, i.e. a uniform IT infrastructure with cloud and IT services that do not have to be built 20 times each. Every citizen should also receive a digital identity via the planned EU wallet (EUDI).
Currently, over 75 percent of European cloud data is "in the hands of US hyperscalers", the minister said, referring to the strength of AWS, Google, Microsoft & Co. "Why?" he asked the audience. This approach has no future; the German government is committed to European structures in the computer clouds. These are "part of a fair, open and innovation-driven competition".
Sensitive payment data leaving the EU legal area
The former manager also believes there is an urgent need for alternative offers for digital payments "that are accepted and give citizens a more secure feeling". This requires a trustworthy infrastructure with the highest security standards. Currently, 80 percent of payment providers do not come from Europe, meaning that a lot of sensitive data leaves "our jurisdiction". However, he did not address the plans for a digital euro. With social media, it is also important to act in a decentralized manner and work with open interfaces to improve exchange.
Achieving a digital administration with functioning e-government is another "big issue" that Wildberger wants to tackle. Other countries are orchestrating this more centrally, but he does not yet have all the answers for a solution. He aims to set up a federal IT security center in close cooperation with the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) to create the basic requirements for digital services, for example. The country also needs an "economic push forward". The location must also be attractive for start-ups in the data economy and AI sectors. The state's task here is to create a free space for start-ups in which they can "build something themselves".

A new twin study published in Translational Psychiatry suggests that the sensory sensitivities often seen in autistic individuals may not be caused by autism itself. Instead, these sensory traits appear to be genetically linked to alexithymia—a condition characterized by difficulties in identifying and describing one’s own emotions. After accounting for alexithymia, the researchers found no remaining genetic association between autism and sensory symptoms. These findings challenge long-standing assumptions about the nature of autism and point to the possibility that some hallmark features attributed to the condition may instead arise from overlapping but distinct traits.
