That’s not what the question was about.

At this point I really don’t know whether to believe that Trump is literally a Russian asset. Maybe he is, maybe he isn’t, we need to wait for actual evidence to know for sure.

But I’m finding it more interesting right now watching how people are reacting to the possibility that Trump is a Russian asset. I’m thinking a lot of people would rather believe that it was true, because that way it would mean America didn’t do this to themselves. Much nicer to believe that some Machiavellian spy plot had been pulled and America had been hoodwinked than to believe that America had simply elected this ridiculous parody of a human being because they wanted to.

Depends which exchange you’re using.

It’s a common misconception that a “cold wallet” is offline. It’s still on the blockchain like any other wallet, it’s just the keys that aren’t on any network-connected computer.

It appears that in this case hackers managed to trick Bybit employees into entering the keys into a fake UI that gave the hackers access to them.

I doubt he’s “giving in.”

What’s happening here is that Trump thinks he’s being a tough negotiator by doing all these supposed “power moves” of offering ridiculous deals and trash-talking his negotiating partner. But the result is ending up being the opposite - the US is throwing away all of the power it thought it had, Ukraine is showing that they don’t need the US. Each threat that Trump makes is a card he’s playing and revealing to actually be useless.

Now that the US has burned through its hand, Zelensky can turn around and tell them “okay, here’s my offer.”

Which, again, is not what you said they were doing this for.

Which is not the goal of terrorists. Terrorists are attempting to cause political change through their actions.

Or do you think that anything that involves murder, cheating, stealing, trafficking, kidnapping, and extortion is terrorism?

Why would a Chinese-made AI have American censorship and propaganda in it?

Not necessarily. There was a large pool of non-voters, if a lot of those were disillusioned leftists who didn’t see anyone worth voting for then appealing to them might have been a winning strategy.

I would imagine it’s not a problem if the betting market is small compared to the things being bet on. In this case you’d have to manipulate the long term outcome of the Ukraine war to win a few tens of millions of dollars, which seems unlikely.

Nice. This implies that these businesses are concluding that Ukraine is going to win - or at least, not lose - and will therefore retain its sovereignty. Their investments wouldn’t be safe otherwise.

This sort of thing is why betting markets are so good at prediction. Experts can pontificate and analyze all they want but at the end of the day a betting market requires people to put their money where their mouth is.

AI can do subtitles too.

You think Obama didn’t accomplish anything? He was some kind of completely helpless nobody in the face of a Republican party that didn’t control anything for two years of his term?

This is exactly the reason the Democratic party is being dumped on so hard these days, and deservedly so. They don’t even do the right thing when they are handed the power to do it on a silver plate. They insist on “compromise” with a party that brooks none.

Shutting down Guantanamo would have been effectively irreversible since it’s Cuban land. Cuba doesn’t recognize the American claim that they have a lease on it, so as soon as it’s shut down it’s never coming back.

During the first two years of Obama’s presidency Congress was also controlled by the Democrats.

If someone breaks into my house and there’s a huge amount of evidence showing who did it, and I present that evidence to the police, and they do nothing and then the thief comes back and breaks in again, I’m going to be super mad at the police. They failed at their job.

Mad at the thief too, of course. But also mad at the police. I can be mad at two different groups.

You realize there’s plenty of blame to go around, that it’s possible for more than one “side” in this to be doing bad things and making mistakes?

I’m not. I’m blaming them for not doing anything to prevent the actions of a republican president.

If only one of the several Democratic presidents that had been in power since Gitmo was established had gone ahead and closed it down like they said they wanted to.

Because a lot of people feel like the world is getting shittier, and so they’re voting for the parties that tell them “the world is shitty and we have the solution. It’s simple and straightforward and someone other than you will bear the brunt of it.”

If the left wants the far-right to stop gaining then it has to defuse this argument. They should be working to make people feel like the world is less shitty, convincing people that they have solutions for the world’s shittyness, and ensuring that those solutions are simple and straightforward and put the brunt of the effort on someone else.

This is the downside of democracy, you have to do what the people want. Sometimes that’s kind of annoying and difficult.

Why do you think he’s American to begin with?
