Is there a time besides maybe the 2010s where people had more disposable income ?

Yeah, bud.

It was called 1940-2007.

Line go down, rent go up. What do?

This is just not true for many people. A home is an asset. When paying a mortgage, you build equity that can be recouped if you decide to sell, or which can be used as collateral for another loan. When renting, you are still paying a mortgage, except is the landlord’s and you own nothing. Rent prices can also change at any time and by large amounts, forcing renters to move. The cost of owning a home is much more stable and predictable.

Homes are also typically bought with a loan and a relatively small down payment, making them a leveraged asset. Eg, if you put down 30k on a 300k house and prices increase 5%, the value of your home just went up 15k. If you instead just put 30k in stocks, you would need an increase of 50% to get the same result.

Regardless, when it comes to housing, your primary concern should always be stability and not “profitability”.

Faraday cages can attenuate most radio signals, not just WiFi. If you still want “AM radio”, VHF (“FM radio”, OTA TV), and cellular, you would need an external antenna for each of these.

Private money cannot replace public funding of science

Ftfy

Pretty sure China didn’t just glass an entire city, and isn’t currently trying to glass an entire country.

Front page isn’t too bad though, most of the time

Lmao

Yeah, Western broadcasters should instead use Chinese characters and not do any translations when covering China.

I am very smart.

Dozens of countries host US military bases. While currently unlikely, the individual host nations could absolutely forcefully overtake or otherwise expel the bases within their borders while the US flounders about in Iran.

The US has just shown it can’t protect it’s bases, and their presence only invites more conflict.

Their state passed a law last year, but it won’t go into effect until summer because Mills refused to sign (or veto) it.

Also, it’s unlikely that countries would be manufacturing their own renewable infrastructure. You would still need ships to haul solar panels, wind turbines, and batteries from China to destination ports.

The US frequently attends these exercises, and finished with this one around Feb 25, 2026.

They knew, because they were there.

Did someone say Blowback?

Mission accomplished.

I love how you can’t even see the name of the paper, but everyone just instinctually knows it couldn’t be anything other than an American publication.

Believe me folks, America is respected again like it has never been respected before… America is now the hottest country in the world…

Rare earths aren’t just used in batteries, lol

“Dozens”

Yes, it is more so the efficient processing and refining that is rare.

You can make a T-shirt anywhere, but if you have to first build your own cotton farms and factories locally, construction will take years and your shirts will cost 10x more.

I think bombs dropping on heads will still affect daily life.

If it’s any consolation, you already did.
