Wall Street is fed up with Trump’s tariffs. Stocks are off to their worst start to a year since last time Trump was president

Also, realistically, what the hell can I do about it? I voted. I donate. I even write actual emails and not use form letters. I can’t influence DOGE. I don’t have enough money to bribe Trump or his cabinet. What the actual fuck is expected of an individual?

- Comment on "Americans can't coo-" 1 week ago:
Don’t let Americans cook means you don’t know about actual American food like gumbo, sausage gravy, chili, or tri tip (among dozens of other dishes). It’s a sad, bland world without American food.

- Comment on With clean, stable power, Costa Rica aims to rival Taiwan in chipmaking 4 weeks ago:
This is exactly the right time to start a fab in a new part of the world. Semiconductor fab is very thirsty work and climate change is making traditional locales less viable in the long term. And Costa Rica has the renewable water system for it.

If Vietnam had the PR machine of America, Võ Nguyên Giáp would be heralded as one of the greatest military minds of all time. Instead he is begrudgingly accepted as a good strategist who probably beat 3 of the biggest, most powerful militaries in the world with villagers.
The West doesn’t want to admit that a lawyer who was untrained in military doctrine and strategy beat France then the USA then Cambodia then China in a long 40 year fight. To Americans, the Vietnam was a gruesome 20 years. To Vietnam that was the second chapter of a 50 year period where someone tried to conquer them.

Damn, this video is garbage. Lots of yelling about smudging and “HOW COULD THEY?!” And then complains about how people aren’t implementing any effects like he says. And that part about “I told Epic Unreal 5.5 wasn’t ready!” Like he actually matters to Tim Sweeney.
Avoid the video. Nothing of substance or value is within.

- Comment on North American companies brace for fallout from Trump tariffs 1 month ago:
Remember when Republicans at least tried to look competent at economic issues? What I wouldn’t give for a William F Buckley figure to punch holes in the costumed fascism that is happening now with incisive conservative ideals. The Republicans need someone on the inside to point out how bad for business, people, and the economy as a whole Trump is.

- Comment on Solar panels should not be cleaned with dishwashing detergent, study shows 2 months ago:
The study found that the optical properties of the studied anti-reflective coating on solar panel glass did not deteriorate as a result of chemical cleaning—except when dishwashing detergent was used.
It is unlikely that dishwashing detergent damages the glass. However, rinsing does not seem to be sufficient, as the transmittance of the solar panel glass cleaned with detergent did not return to the pre-cleaning level after the rinsing.
“Even though the glass looks clean when cleaned with detergent, its ability to transmit light is significantly impaired. Therefore, a clean-looking end result does not guarantee optimal performance,” says Research Assistant Julianna Varjopuro.
TL;DR - dish cleaner removes the anti-reflective coating but glass cleaner does not. And once lost, it does not come back.

- Comment on Sony is working on Horizon Zero Dawn and Helldivers 2 movies 2 months ago:
Starship Troopers exists so any video game movie adaptation will be compared to it. Unless Paul Verhoven is directing, it is a big uphill battle to win any comparisons.
And it’s Sony, so, good luck? They can’t seem to understand what makes a movie interesting to want to watch. They can’t cut a good trailer but their actual ability to produce and execute movie production is just bad. They can’t make a comic book movie that isn’t produced by others.
- Comment on Elon Musk wants the U.S. to “Liberate the people Britain from their tyrannical government” 2 months ago:
Fascism cannot exist without capitalism. Capital is what supports and strengthens fascism - the idea that business is more important than the people. This sounds like how the world has always been but it wasn’t until the 60s, at least in the US, when the business leaders wanted to stop unions, make more money, stop the possibilities of environmentalists from hurting profits, etc. The pushback from the people in the 60s spawned the Civil Rights and threatened to derail the business first approach America had gotten used to from after the Depression. The war years gave too much money and power to too few people and things like the Business Plot simmered under the surface of our grandparents’ generation. Two generations of propaganda that made social and community based governing sound villainous has brought us to a full on fascist revolution slow burning through wealthy democracies.

- Comment on Thanks mom, I don't want any 2 months ago:
Lots of American food companies use recipes on the box to give the buyer an idea of what to make. This was a part of American food packaging going back to the Depression; learning to work with what we had was the lesson of the period. It was a time of searching for what was cheap and learning how to make it palatable.
