America's factory boom now a bust as China cuts off graphite sales, likely to push tariff repeals
  • That exact type of suicidal calculus is what we're best at. Or at least well practiced at. Just look at how we wield sanctions like a cleaver. We've abused them so much that it wouldn't be a lie to say the US is a major contributor to the success of BRICS. We engineered the conditions that made a financial system outside the realm of the petrodollar not only possible, but necessary.

  • The US Navy’s warship production is in its worst state in 25 years. What’s behind it?
  • We spend a trillion dollars every year which is funneled into giant scam machines that price gouge the hell out of us.

    Fact of the matter is that countries with nationalized military production move faster, advance faster, and they're catching up all the time if not moving past us and our bloated antiquated Military Industrial Complex.

    Eisenhower warned us. And history has proven him right.

  • Is the US finally getting ‘all aboard’ with electric trains?
  • No. We're not even on board with trains as a concept outside of the context of heavy freight shipping. The people are. But big oil spends a lot of bribe money to make sure you can't easily ride a train across the country.

  • If you bought a 3D printer for personal use, was it worth it?
  • Tell me. Can you buy food safe microwave safe plastic to print with?

    If so. Google the "Fasta Pasta" and tell me of you can print one half the size of a normal one.

    I want one. But my microwave is too small. And nobody makes a small one.

    In One Nation, Anger Over U.S.’s Gaza Policy Opens Door Wider for China
  • Not just one. Blind blanket support for this genocide has burned a lot of the political capital the US once had. Maybe not most. But a lot. Even among close allies.

    Everyone except the US seems to understand that we don't live in a unipolar world anymore. While we've let runaway supply side economics destroy this country China has been catching up.

  • Tim Walz’s net worth is less than the average American’s
  • Yeah no man. That isn't basic knowledge. That was never taught to any of us. I'm sure it was if you were born with a silver stick up your ass. Being lazy is what those people do best. Soft hands and all you know. But for the rest of us, the wage slaves. Investing is something boomers like to scream about incoherently. Not a real thing in our world. We're too busy paying bills and eating occasionally.

  • S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl - Developer Deep Dive
  • My strongest memory of this franchise is being young and stupid. My first playthrough ever someone talked me into installing MISERY.

    I was ganked by 2 supermutants as soon as I started. Then died in an Emission as I hid from them in a wreck.

  • (Elden Ring)Black Steel Greathammer is incredible.
  • Did it get nerfed too? Like the other smithscript weapons? I tried the Spear yesterday at the Church of Ella's cuz that one soldier of godrick patrolling nearby. Not only is the damage ass with the charged R1. But it has roughly the same throwing arc as a pot. It's fkin useless.

    I thought it might be good for sniping. Baiting out enemies. Nope.

  • (Elden Ring)Black Steel Greathammer is incredible.

    It's not a Collosal Weapon. But it hits like one. I put Lions Claw on it with Heavy Affinity and it just flattens everything. Just like the Giants Crusher. But a lot faster. Massive poise damage. I love it. !
