By tuning the “Gaussian length” of the channel, the team achieved two‑dimensional super‑injection, which is an effectively limitless charge surge into the storage layer that bypasses the classical injection bottleneck.

I have pretty much only black socks to make pairing easy, and if I detect loose strings or it getting thin that sock is gone. Socks are like a dollar and I'm not about to ruin my day with a holey sock.

How else are we supposed to give nearly half of the discretionary spending to defense contractors? We can't just make a big pile of all the bombs, that would be dangerous. Dropping them on poor people ensures they are only dangerous for a brief amount of time, with minimal risk to the ruling class.

I felt dumb using it at a roundabout because nobody does there, then I looked it up and found it's something you're supposed to do. No harm in over communicating when you're in control of a few thousand pounds of metal.

The most insidious part is that these ghouls depend on creating fear and uncertainty to spook people, largely with retirees who will be left to the mercy of Social Security if their investments were to be decimated. It was galling to see Trump bragging about Charles Schwab and some other insider making billions of dollars directly from his market manipulation.

If a Democratic president is able to take office following the fuckery happening to basic voting rights, I fully expect the cycle to continue of the Democratic president being blamed for inflation/recession due to transferring wealth to people who don't need to spend money from those who do (thanks, tariffs) in the first part of their term. Any economic gains at the end of their tenure will be conveniently ignored.

My next vote goes to:

Because the man has no filter, he felt the need to say the quiet part out loud about his buddies profiting from this grift.

I am so goddamned tired of him repeating the lie that foreign countries pay the tariffs. Sure, their citizens pay any additional retaliatory tariffs, with the middle/lower class of each country paying more as a portion of their income. They think they're being sneaky transferring wealth to the top 1% and unfortunately there are not enough people paying any attention to the grift yet.
