At the moment China is in a Demographic collapse which makes that extremely unlikely. 

This.  Twenty years from now they'll be non competitive.

They'll be the only country that got old before they got rich.

Starting today my forever stamps with the American flag will be applied upside down until donald JAIL trump is dead or impeached as a sign of the trouble we are in.  His replacement would be no better, just not as adept at the art of the con.

I'm going to do my damnedest to not listen to a single word old fuck-knuckle says during his upcoming reign of terror.

Can't wait until the newly emboldened J6 criminals hit the streets w/ their guns & bravado, feeling bulletproof due to their orange turd being back in the oval office.

What could go wrong when they show up looking for trouble at the next gathering?

I legitimately worry that we're soon going to have para-military death squads running around. For instance, I've dreaded the possibility that we'll have ethnic cleansing somewhere like Springfield, Ohio. Local law enforcement looks the other way. Springfield sheriff on social media: "If you support the Democrat Party I will not help you." I wonder if he'll support those Haitian immigrants or if Trump's new FBI will do anything to hinder right wing domestic terror. No bottom and remember that your worst expectations aren't anywhere near bad enough. We'll still be shocked.

And the media will normalize it by equating the death squads to Obama’s community organizing.

Our only hope, small though it may be, is that he dies before they can cancel the election, and his supporters don’t immediately become cultists for the next guy.

I’m ready for Trump to take his fat ass to the golf course and do nothing for 4 years.  That part probably starts on Friday.

He’s going to get the admin running first this time then vacay like a cartel boss. The golf retreats aren’t going to save us this time

Trumps America. This was issued today as a presolicitation from the US Embassy in Mexico City.

Description

The United States Embassy in Mexico (Embassy) requires a public opinion research company to continue the Embassy’s public opinion program, with quantitative (polling) and qualitative (focus groups, interviews) studies to monitor and track public sentiment trends in Mexico in issues of relevance to the U.S. government for one (1) base year with four (4) option years.

So, there is now a signed executive order that gives Presidential appointees, at the request of White House Counsel, immediate interim top security clearances...even if their background check has not been completed (asking for clarification on those posts that need to be confirmed), but this is a shitshow of epic proportions.

Trump picked them. Why would they need a clearance? I mean that alone should be enough. You think Sta, I mean Putin has his people "checked" by lowly government employees?

My guess is this is to get Elon top secret clearance since he doesn't qualify for it. What a shitshow.

He does not. He does not qualify.  People that work with him have it, but Elon himself does not. It was discussed ad nauseum in the Elon is a Nazi (need a thread title change) thread.

There are many levels of clearances. Google search says he still has a TS.

Musk currently holds a “top-secret” clearance that took years to obtain after he discussed use of marijuana on a 2018 podcast with Joe Rogan, according to the outlet. But that may not be enough to have access to information about US government payloads in his rockets.

Typically, candidates undergoing federal security screenings by the department of defense may not receive clearance if the agency expresses concerns about drug or alcohol use, criminal conduct, psychological conditions, sexual behavior or allegiance to the US.

Bleh.  He shouldn't have it due to his Ketamine use. Full stop.  And the fact that he lied on his citizenship application.  But there are zero consequences for anything anymore.

So he is an illegal who broke the law, deportation number should be 001. And then we nationalize SpaceX (FAA safety concerns), Tesla (Divide it up among the big 3), and Twitter can be given to Bezos. Or let Ivanka have it. Or Melania. All about hats. only thing you can post there are hats.

He has TS clearance without compartmented sensitive information and special access program permissions. There was a write up about this in WSJ a while back. 

Musk’s current top-secret clearance gives him access to some national-security secrets, but he lacks special authorizations that the government requires of most SpaceX employees who work on classified programs, according to the people familiar with the matter. Those employees—more than 400—have permissions for what is known as “sensitive compartmented information,” the government’s term for need-to-know secrets about how intelligence is collected and where it comes from, one of the people said. A smaller number of SpaceX employees have access to secrets the government deems even more sensitive called special access programs.

I understand levels Sir. And I also understand asshole bosses. There tend to be conflicts at times.

Elon is a multi-leveled asshole, who lied, uses controlled substances, and deals openly with foreign governments we tend to not like/trust.

Without and SCI, and these are also compartmentalized, he should not have been listening in on the call with Zelensky. I doubt it dealt with a new Tesla showroom in Kyiv.

Not retroactive. Yet.  But I’m sure she laughed that comment off and forgot about it. No harm done surely.

Depends on how you look at it, I guess.  Not standing up for Navin, BUT:

~152 million people voted, out of a pool of ~245 million eligible voters.  So yes, minors and anyone else not eligible sat out but nearly 2/3 of those that could have voted, did.  

Turnout in non-swing states has a big impact on the overall numbers.  The results, even from a technical minority of people, are a good representation nationally of what people want.

It wasn't even a majority of voters.

I consider all non-voters to be at least a little Trumpish. It's unavoidable to know who he is and what he wants to do. If you don't rouse yourself to merely vote against it then you may as well be for it. There's a vast majority fine with Trump as president.

And since everybody knows everything about Trump, he's a clear reflection of who America really is. We always had and have a shitty side, but it was somewhat balanced by good acts and collaboration. That part is gone now, and people applaud it.

Having a home media server has been one of the best time and effort investments for entertainment. Bluray ripper gets a ton of use, but it's nice knowing things will never disappear and I'm getting a good bitrate for the content.

It's wild how much the little Celeron that could can do in that box. Intel's quicksync acceleration in the integrated GPU is a godsend

The only problem is my appetite. I'm looking for bigger and bigger drives all the time. I remember being content with a few TB about a decade ago and now I'm buying them in 20TB chunks to put shit on there that nobody will ever watch, but hey Down Periscope is there ready to go!

Cool, I have no problems being a subcontractor. Plus we creative pricing can probably get those beers built in as business expenses.

I've got your backup.  6 x 16TB spindles in action hosting a library that's mostly sourced in HEVC.  With football season coming to an end and hockey on a free streaming app, I'm not sure why I have a TV subscription now.

Quote

Adm. Linda Fagan was the first female commandant of the Coast Guard. She assumed duties as commandant on June 1, 2022.

Fox News first reported Fagan’s termination, citing issues with recruitment, operations concerns and a focus on diversity, equity and inclusion as the reasons for her relief. An ALCOAST, which is a message to all members of the Coast Guard, announced the relief.

A… good friend of mine has a dad that was born in the United States to illegal immigrant parents in the 1960s. His mom was born in the US back then to (legal he thinks) Mexican immigrant parents. That friend was then born in the United States some years later of course. Is he still a citizen?

Were it not for the fact that the executive order is prospective only, virtually nobody in America would be able to provide proof of their citizenship under this standard. There are no official documents that answer whether your parents were in America legally when you were born.  

And a bunch of Democrats just signed on to a bill that would empower every cop in the fucking country to indefinitely detain anyone who couldn't prove their citizenship.
