@Thebestfigen The floating dock means it happens every day, because some places have 50 foot tides. The water receeds past the horizon. The returning bore tide is like a mini tsunami though. A wave front dividing four feet of water level difference. Also the chance to surf for miles.
CNN right before we hit Iran's nuclear facilities last year: There is no need for this. Iran isn't close to having a nuclear weapon.
CNN immediately after last year's strike: The mission failed, Iran is closer than ever to having a nuclear weapon.
CNN right before we hit Iran this year: There is no need for this. Iran isn't close to having a nuclear weapon.
Spoiler alert. This is how Democrats/MSM will be, with everything, for the next three years. It's exactly how they were on everything Trump did during his first five years.
@er80544@Curioserrr@BrivaelFr Twitter was like this before. One disputed fact, any sort of error, any accusation of phobia and entire profiles, histories, repositories of news reports dissappeared. It was orders of magnitude worse than any book burning the left points to as scare tactics.
@Curioserrr@BrivaelFr Pourrais tu donner un exemple de qu’on pourrait qualifier de racisme , homophobie…que certains n’aiment pas mais qui ne le seraient finalement…de mon côté « un chat est un chat »
Je crois qu'on ne mesure pas ce qu'Elon Musk est en train de construire avec X.
Tous les médias de l'histoire ont été couplés à une culture, une langue, une bulle géographique. Le Monde parle aux Français. Le NYT parle aux Américains. NHK parle aux Japonais. Chaque média filtre le réel à travers le prisme de sa culture locale.
X est en train de devenir le premier média de l'humanité. Pas d'un pays. De l'espèce.
Je le vis en temps réel. Mes posts en français se font RT par des Japonais, répondre par des Brésiliens, citer par des Américains. Des conversations qui n'auraient jamais existé il y a 5 ans. Un libertarien français qui débat avec un ingénieur de Tokyo et un entrepreneur de Sao Paulo sous le même tweet. Pas traduit par un éditeur. Traduit instantanément par l'IA, en un clic.
Les bulles de filtre culturelles sont en train d'exploser.
Et je pense qu'on sous-estime massivement les effets composés de ça.
Quand une idée peut traverser un océan en 3 secondes, quand un argument sourcé posté à Paris peut être vérifié par un économiste à Singapour et amplifié par un développeur à Austin dans la même heure, le coût de propagation d'une bonne idée tend vers zéro.
Et c'est catastrophique pour un type d'acteur très précis : les médias qui ont construit leur business model sur le monopole de l'information locale. Ceux qui pouvaient raconter n'importe quoi sur "ce qui se passe ailleurs" parce que personne ne pouvait vérifier.
Quand un journaliste français écrit que "le modèle américain ne marche pas", maintenant il y a 50 Américains dans les réponses avec des sources. Quand un éditorialiste dit que "le Danemark prouve que le socialisme fonctionne", il y a un Danois qui explique que le Danemark est 10e en liberté économique mondiale.
Le fact-checking n'est plus un département. C'est un effet réseau.
Les médias honnêtes n'ont rien à craindre de ça. Les médias qui vendaient une narration protégée par l'ignorance géographique de leur audience vont avoir un problème existentiel.
Parce qu'on ne peut plus mentir à l'échelle locale quand le monde entier regarde.
@CuriosityonX It also suggests that all possible outcomes occur in some parts of the space of universes. Like there's an infinite number of universes where you'll be tortured for all eternity. Or suddenly turned into a pig and then eaten. Or whatever.
🚨 AUTO SHOP QUOTES WOMAN $1,200 FOR BRAKE JOB — THEN DELETES VIDEO AFTER BACKLASH
An auto shop tells a woman a “normal” brake job costs $800–$1,200.
No hesitation.
Like it’s completely normal.
After heavy pushback online… the video gets deleted.
Then this man responds... calling it “capitalistic well poisoning.”
• Brake pads? ~$120 total
• Labor? ~2 hours max
• Fair rate? $85–$130/hr
That puts a realistic total closer to:
➡️ $300–$400
“A good mechanic can do it in about an hour… but they still charge double.”
Same job.
Two completely different prices.
One video disappears.
How often does this happen without anyone catching it?
@Syndicatrix@ElectionWiz Also, in Middle Earth, only those obedient to Sauron were protected from the orcs. Perhaps that is what she really, really meant.
@ElectionWiz@BowTiedKong It's just like when America applies sanctions to another country, it's a form of allegiance, and everyone is a US citizen now.
Watch this pompous, arrogant judge with his elitist attitude berate an IT worker who was trying to help him.
Harris County, Texas Judge Nathan
J. Million of the 215th Civil Court is facing criticism online after this video circulating on social media shows what a pr*ck he is.
@JOKAQARMY1 All legal contracts associate names to roles for context and clarity. They also use precise language due to refinement through litigation, not to confuse the rubes.
@JOKAQARMY1 Years ago I read over one of my friends contracts who is quite successful, when I lived in LA.
It said ‘in perpetuity, throughout the known AND unknown universe’
I said ‘dafuq?’ and she said 🤷🏻♀️
@BrettSlagh@Haeze@Angry_Staffer This is why Florida used to be blue because of Brenda Snipes in Broward County. Looked exactly like Fulton County kicking everyone out and then changing the State outcome with ballots more liberal than San Francisco by orders or magnitude.
@Haeze@Angry_Staffer As I said, the oversight is bipartisan. There are both Republican and Democratic poll watchers. And there are independent observers on top of that.
GOP: the mail is secure enough to receive your photo ID, social security card, your debit and credit cards, your stimulus checks, and your tax returns
Also GOP: the mail is not safe enough for voting
First thing we skills test for is "can you run a cordless drill".
98% of guys under 35 in fact cannot. They can't run a cordless drill properly, safely.
You aren't going to learn to be a plumber or electrician in 2 years because you don't even know enough to change a tire.
That classic “Sandler” energy never misses! 👟✨ While reports of this legendary “Pretty Woman” moment at Chanel have been taking over social media, it’s the ultimate reminder of why we love the Sandman. Whether the story is a Hollywood myth or a retail reality, Adam Sandler’s commitment to staying h...
@Gryph911 Women do this shit to manipulate you.
If she was on her own, she would hand wash the one pan like any normal human would. Then cook food, and then do other shit while waiting for it to cook.
What's she's trying to say is "you don't help out" but she's not honest about it.
@schmitteposter@ChrisGloninger Since ph 7 is neutral, the comparison would more accurately be the difference between a 1.2 and 1.1 magnitude earthquake.
@schmitteposter@ChrisGloninger One tenth of a richter scale unit would be the difference between 7.1 and 7.2 magnitude earthquake. Which is not noticeable
Tell me you don't understand logarithmic scales without telling me you don't understand logarithmic scales.
That "one-tenth of a pH unit" represents a 26% increase in ocean acidity. The pH scale is logarithmic - same math as the Richter scale. Nobody would say "oh, it only went up 1.0 on the Richter scale" about an earthquake.
This is what happens when someone remembers just enough from high school chemistry to be confidently wrong.
