Even if he were prosecuted, his lawyers could claim he was too senile to know what he was doing, and it's not like he's got enough years left in him to worry about seeing the end of it.

Those are things that are in the interest of the US foreign policy agenda.

Can someone remind me of the last time a U.S. president took a principled stand on some foreign policy issue? Seriously, I'm not just asking this to be a dick. I'm pretty sure things are set up to ensure this does not ever happen.

Assuming they were dropped by whoever installed that plug, 100,000 years, as estimated by the experts cited by the article.

It's like they spent a lot of time and effort thinking about, how many different ways can we make this more terrifying? I'm having trouble coming up with anything else they could do short of anything really blatant like attaching it to a mobile body with flailing meat grinder arms and giving it a blood curdling 100 decibel scream.

I was really hoping to see him almost fall over, but that was really a nothing. I hate him too, but stooping to exaggerations like this is kind of pathetic.

Is that beard to make him look younger? Because it looks like that beard you sometimes see on young guys figuring out that they can't really grow a decent beard...

Um, what's the etiquette around sending unsolicited stick pics?

Of the many Lemmy clients I've tried, Thunder is the one I like the best, but the one place I have nits is the creating a comment experience.

After typing the comment you have close you keyboard, to have any hope of the create button being visible (if your comment is really short) and then scroll all the way back up to the top. Isn't the bottom the obviously better place for this button?

Even worse, if in trying to scroll the screen, you accidentally hit the little horizontal bar at the top, you just lose your comment.

Finally, it seems to always lose my place in the thread and put me back at the top after entering a comment.
