@JavierBlas Wrong Iran does not need to be flexible at all or offer any concessions, no one in the US seems to understand this

Trump says Iran is asking for things he "can't agree with." But in reality, what he means is that he doesn't **want** to to agree to them. Ultimately, however, this is a negotiation. Both sides would have to swallow stuff they say they would never accept. The only question is about how would have to be more flexible: Iran or the US.

A 2005 state-designed worm designed to corrupt physics simulations sat undetected on VirusTotal for nearly a decade. Fast16, intercepted executable files at the kernel level and silently rewrote floating-point calculations to make them produce slightly wrong answers. Targets: high-precision engineering suites used for structural analysis, crash simulations, and physical process modeling, including LS-DYNA, a tool cited in reports on Iran's nuclear weapons research. The sabotage vector relied on deployment of the driver across a network via worm, corrupting calculations on every machine, and eliminating the possibility of cross-checking results against a clean system. Stuxnet got the documentary. Fast16 got twenty years of nothing. sentinelone.com/labs/fast16-my…

@9mmsmg Or Americans could take their country back and not have to deal with this

At this point, it's looking like Spirit Airlines is likely going to cease operations. For anyone who paid any attention to this sector, it seemed inevitable. They filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2024 after a blocked JetBlue merger and then filed again in 2025. All their restructuring with cutting their fleet was still not enough to save them. Especially with other airlines offering better quality economy experiences. You can laugh at them because, realistically, they are a dreadful company that offers a horrible flying experience. Rude staff plagued them, and the customer base made the already annoying experience of flying into a Greyhound bus experience in the clouds. Before you laugh too hard, though, realize this has downstream effects that are all negative. This is what I call the Katrina effect. After Katrina, the influx of NOLA refugees into Houston and Galveston completely wrecked both. The same may happen with airlines. The people flying Spirit are still going to want to fly, and they're possibly coming to your preferred airline. I only see one possible solution. Airlines could step up and create a budget class airline offshoot to keep Spirit travelers away from their flagship brand. I imagine Southwest and Frontier will absorb much of their customer base, but it won't be enough. Spirit closing could be a monumental disaster for air travel.

As the onshore oil inventory draws get momentum, more and more people from the energy world will scream at the top of their lungs. The problem is that even if the Strait had reopened in mid-April, the June low storage scenario would still play out because of the logistical timing issues. Now that we are here, we are barreling towards tank bottoms. It is what it is.

@staunovo Iran understands Trump thinks this is a real estate negotiation and they can use that to lead him along while continuing the oil blockage Trump does not understand what this is to Iran and they will never give him an inch

Right now we have talks going on, they’re not getting there - Trump on Iran #oott

@avgmercaJoe @WallStreetMav And vote for who then exactly Voting will not fix this and there are no democratic solutions, understand where you are

Stop electing these people. They’re all the same party and don’t care about us. You have to be a dumbass if you can’t see this by now. Keeping these people in power does no benefit. How about trying something different for a change. Do your homework, vote a new candidate or don’t vote at all but stop electing dipshit incumbents.

House Republicans just voted to override the President and RFK Jr ... they will allow EBT SNAP food stamps to be spent on soda and other junk food.

@JackMaxey1 No And America is no longer a democracy or a republic, it is an economic zone and you are a tax slave for people who hate you and want to genocide you

He's not going to keep a single promise is he?

Emails show Biden DOJ lawyers fantasized about prosecuting Catholic nuns. "I'd like to prosecute any nun who still wears the head habit."

Canada’s conversion therapy law, simplified. It’s legal to convince a child they were born wrong and once they believe that it’s illegal to convince them they were born right.

Covid restrictions were intentionally designed to be as ridiculous as possible. It was a test to determine whether fear could be used to manipulate people into complying with overtly nonsensical rules, against their own interests. Most people failed the test.

@9mmsmg The vast majority of "Americans" do not care, COVID proved that

Vehicle kill switches take all the fun out of owning a fast car. You know you're not really going to slam the pedal if a cop pulls you over, but you like knowing that you could if you wanted to. Sitting at a red light next to a cop, you could roll down your window, flip him off, and just take off as he sat there confused in a cloud of smoke from burnt rubber. He's pounding his steering wheel as his coffee spills on his lap, and donut crumbs fly everywhere. These are the fantasies that get men through the day. That fun is gone. What's the point anymore? 100s of thousands on a car just to have a cop turn it off, even in your fantasy? Just say no to kill switches.

Natasha at JPM is publishing some bangers. Good shit Natasha. 👏

@FoxNews Trump will be the only president where oil prices were both negative at one point and infinity at another point

REPORTER: "The average price of a gallon of gas is now $4.30 in this country..." PRESIDENT TRUMP: "And you know what? And we're not going to have a nuclear weapon in the hands of Iran." "The gas will go down. As soon as the war is over, it'll drop like a rock. There's so much of it. It's all over the place, sitting all over the oceans of the world."

@facefuklibtards Tucker's model does not rely on paid subscriptions, the fact it is above zero is the only thing I find surprising

A few days ago hackers breached his website and only found around 7k subscribers to his show. They are posting these metrics because investors are freaking the fuck out. 58 million views across all platforms is dogshit. Tucker is making 0 money x.com/weezerOSINT/st…

@thizzelleX @ChristianHeiens They only need it to work for one election cycle to turn a temporary super majority into a permanent one party rule forever

@ChristianHeiens A major weakness with gerrymandering so aggressively in a 55/45 D type of state is that these would be fragile, brittle districts that any number of factors could swing a few races. Even Chicago moving a few points to the right would inadvertently yield many GOP districts.

Every Democrat-drawn Congressional map is just going to look like this from now on. The urban machine in states like New York and Illinois is going to be dismantled by Democrats themselves because there’s now a far greater crisis for the party to address than continuing to placate inner-city minority grievance politics. Those urban cores now need to be drawn into giant spaghetti noodles reaching down to envelop the countryside. It’s the only way for Democrats to draw unanimous maps in states like California, Illinois, and New York. This is going to have far reaching effects on both the Democratic Party’s internal coalition and our national politics at large.

@TheBTCTherapist Because Trump thinks the US is an economic zone and you are a tax slave

Why is the U.S. exporting record levels of oil if I’m still paying 50% more at the pumps? Make it make sense.

@Pirat_Nation Is MS getting rid of the forced AI integration, spyware, forced updates and inserted ads for MS apps?

Good news for Windows 11 gamers: Microsoft is quietly working on a major internal plan called “K2” to slash bloat, boost performance, and make the OS seriously competitive with SteamOS. >SteamOS is now the official benchmark, Microsoft wants Windows 11 to deliver identical (or better) gaming performance on the exact same hardware >Dramatically lower idle RAM usage and a much lighter overall OS footprint >Heavy cuts to AI clutter and pre-installed junk >Completely rebuilt Start menu, reportedly up to 60% faster >A ton of other under-the-hood tweaks (faster File Explorer, snappier UI, fewer background processes, etc.) The changes are probably due to make Windows look better on Project Helix and future handheld/Xbox PC hardware. It finally feels like Microsoft is listening people, can’t believe it

@ValerieAnne1970 The judge and the doctors who administered this should all be in jail for life

HORRIFYING: 5-year-old develops severe Autism after court-forced vaccines. A Tennessee judge's ultimatum during a custody battle led to a child receiving 18 VACCINES in ONE DAY. After vaccination, Isaac was hospitalized in ICU for 12 days, and later diagnosed with Autism.
