I mean, it’s already half way there, all they got to do is make it funny

I had to look him up. Seemingly,he’s a cheap ham mannequin in a bad suit, and using the word “personality” in connection with him is really stretching it past the point of credibility

No, he genuinely has a face like an ai-generated thumb. He’s the kind of prank bellend that’s going to get shot eventually, and absolutely no one will care, he’s a gimp

Ah, now you say that, I remember something about protesters having a go at it. It was Royal Dutch Shell and headquartered in The Hague up until 2022 apparently, before becoming Shell Plc and moving here to sample the delights of brexit

My first thought was “how?!” But then I remembered that this is actually Royal Dutch Shell, and the case was in a Dutch court. Probably just a coincidence, I’m sure…,

If only there was some recent example of a western country doing something stupid like this that isolates its self from a major chunk of its agricultural workforce, and really screwing over its fresh food supply… (Politely clears throat in post-brexit British)

It’s not Cognitive Behavioural Therapy that he had, it’s a specific technique for nerve pain. It wouldn’t work on an injury, but as his problem was basically just one nerve transmitting the message long after the physical damage had healed, he had a long course of a physical therapy that teaches the body to go through the range of motion of the afflicted part without noticing the message from that one nerve.

It’s terribly worded, but unfortunately it’s kinda true. I have a good friend who got severe nerve damage falling while doing arb work, wrenched his shoulder. Basically, one of his major nerves was constantly firing. He was on tons of anti inflammatories and morphine, until they gave him a therapy that slowly taught his brain to ignore the signal from that one nerve. It took a long time, but he’s completely pain free now.

Were they not assholes during the match? Blatantly ignoring the minute’s silence for the Spanish flood victims, and anti-Palestinian chants during the game were what I read. I can see how that might get people’s goat a bit

That’s a polite way to say “we’re really screwed now”

“Don’t privatise essential infrastructure”? I bet that’s not the lesson they learned, but it definitely is the one they need to

Yeah, that’s immediately jarring

Seems capable of driving it’s self into that deer pretty well

I’d think that the smart ones will desert as soon as they can

Aha, I lose. I was literally about to comment “urge? He’s the damn president, he should be doing more than urging them to look at it!” until you made me realise it wasn’t the Georgia that has to listen to him

As does having a livable planet for the rest of us, and being able to exist as anything other than a rich white straight-in-public guy in the US. How so much has ended up in the hands of an orange nazi dementia patient in a first world country is pretty astounding

The fact it goes on to talk about pink coke shoes they’re conflating two different things.

Record it by pumping it through the homes of the water company executives, and have them measure every last bit with a little measuring cup? No? Shame

Gaoling the executives of these companies is the only real response to this kind of thing

I saw an article about Chinese EVs being equipped with overly-powerful LiDAR for self driving or something, which meant that in essence, they drive about the places burning out camera sensors. This got me thinking - The human eye takes a lot more energy to damage it than the average ccd chip, and a small cheap laser pointer is way more than enough to wreck one. Would it be possible to get a LiDAR unit and pop it on a remote control car or a drone or something?

There’s a group in London that call themselves the Bladerunners who go around wrecking the ULEZ cameras, they use a few interesting methods, but they’re all a bit too direct, such as sawzalling camera poles down. The LiDAR looks like a better option.
