Like anyone believing the lies of their abuser, they’ll just blame the Chinese for hurting them. Just do what the abuser wants, then everything will be ok. Don’t rock the boat.

239 miles / 150 miles for big/small battery in angry eagle units.

Shoulda done that, I dunno…a decade ago?

And so nothing changes and probably continues to get worse.

Also, this is an attempt to block malicious influence, outright lies, and distorted reality. You’re free to access actual reality anytime.

Take what I said in the context it was said.

Yeah, you could power it up (maybe) with some backup batteries and a camping solar charger. Heck, even a cheap HAT screen would allow visual and touch access.

The point is that the knowledge therein is useless unless you are already fully prepared to make use of it. I’ve already covered that.

Note that I already said you’d have to have all the survival and power requirements in place before doomsday. Not waiting until doomsday to use this box as a tool to learn how to survive. IOW if you’re not already a prepped prepper, this box is pointless.

I’m not sure what you’re aiming for when you kinda proved my point.

You cited a youtube video, something that would be inaccessible during doomsday as a source of info, and the whole point is to have all the power supply and survival solutions in place before doomsday and the youtube video would be pointless.

Look, unless it’s a slow decline where you have some access to power and time to develop survival tools and skills to use this box it’s pointless as you’ve already developed the survival tools and skills. As an archive of other skills and knowledge it’s only as useful as the longevity of the storage media and the devices used to access it (monitor, keyboard, pi, etc).

Neat. I get the archived sites and docs as pretty useful and a good way to keep info that might be redacted or manipulated by a fascist government, but I gotta question the use of this technological medium to save information as useful during a “doomsday” situation.

If you’re in an actual doomsday situation, that means odds are utilities like water and power are intermittent or nonexistent, this box will be useless unless you have already spent the time and effort to install and maintain an off-grid power solution to use this device.

So essentially a gimmick. However, I can’t argue with the preservation of knowledge in an effort to reference it when bad actors change what is publicly available.

E: I think people are missing my point. I said you’d need to be prepared to use this device in a doomsday situation, as in, “already spent the time and effort to install and maintain an off-grid power solution…”

But for some reason people are telling me “well if you’ve already got a power setup…” when I stated not having the means to utilize this device it’s pointless. Telling me what I already said? C’mon, people. No need to reiterste my solutions and contradict conditions I stated to make yourself right.

You’d also already have to have all the tools, seeds, plants, material, equipment and supplies to make or farm and a community to implement the knowledge saved on the device. Maintaining the trappings of civilization in a doomsday situation is all but impossible solo, and a shitload of work for a community. You don’t put this box in a closet and when the power goes out permanently and your gas generator kicks on you decide it’s time to learn how to survive. IOW it’s useless unless you’re already prepped.

Which part of the country lost the most % and became poorer? Middle class? The rich?

Because they vote for people like themselves.

Bullshit.

FSD is getting people killed and somehow this same car will get any kind of “ok” to solo drive to someone’s home from the factory?

More promises by Muskrat that aren’t gonna happen.

Probably have a sales rep in the car to monitor the drive.

I don’t understand these tools that think they live on another planet. If they wreck this one with hedonistic malicious disregard, there’s no place to go. They’re kings of a shitpile. Money is meaningless at that point.

Subscription military service. Some really dystopian stuff I’ve only heard of when imagined in some pretty cynical sci-fi books.

They finally picked something from the pile to impeach him over? Not DOGE, not threatening to invade our neighbors, not the whipsawing of the market thanks to his tariff games, or any of the rest?

I think the assumption is you’re not telling anyone you’re landing with whatever you take off the ship.

They just make shit up as they go and expect everyone to obey and call it the truth.

Someone’s been living in a cave.

People here really hate landlords. Doesn’t matter if they’re joking or not.

Plenty of older people have ASD. I know a couple personally. They have childhood stories of being beaten, yelled at, difficulty with teachers and peers. They claim to be fine today, but telling horror stories of your trauma as a kid really says otherwise. If ASD was bad enough to be “retarded”, they were kept from society and/or put in State Homes. RFK is ADHD, and the only thing that kept him out of jails due to the untreated effects when he was younger is hs family name and wealth.

Indirectly, maybe.

I also think it’s mostly just shitty parents, possibly who also had shitty parents, that forced the “hard knock life” on kids to make them “tough” and self reliant. Assuming they weren’t just regular old being abusive in some form. Being poor can also drive people out, if someone isn’t earning money in an already economically tight situation it can create a lot of friction.

Americans have a kinda messed up family life. This “self reliance” that separates the family unit and attempts to make it a standalone entity against everyone else really doesn’t reflect the way a lot of the rest of the world operates with closer family and community ties. Even not too long ago America was a lot different in that fashion. Probably WW2 and the growth that followed were the main shift.
