I'm not doomposting, I'm just saying that - if true - Chinese dumping of US debt on the open market will force interest rates higher.

if that happens I agree with you, but I don't think that is what is happening. China has been slowly deleveraging from bonds for over 5 years they have not increased or decreased. I think what is happening is Japan, and hedge funds selling on margin calls. But I am an autistic sticker nigger with out socks on the farms .....

So that's what you're trying to say through donny's cheeto puff? Makes sense. btw you got all quiet after i pointed out your church is not legally obligated to report child sex abuse, what do you think of that?

clergy-penitent privilege is a carve out in 33 US states that allows people to confess their sins without getting gulaged. This is old law. The Catholics do it too. Yet you aren't sperging at them. Edit: final response on the matter, im not slapfighting

>"b-being exempt from reporting child abuse is ok because two other cults are exempt too! i WON'T answer questions about it b-baka! *crosses arms and shits diaper*"
typical response from a cheeto cockslurper. carry on, donny doesn't like to be kept waiting
 
Imagine arguing that anyone on earth should be able to come into your country and be there and just...not document who the fuck they are. Just like, exist here no questions asked. Even citizens have identifying documents.
 
Trump says all good checks on physical, got all the answers right, also has a good soul, kinda like that as a talking point:

like putting cameras on drones, then using the software to detect things.

I mean you could detect things, but I thought I was answering this in relation to detecting an F35 in a better way than radar

Wouldn't that hurt China too, or they'd have done it earlier.

Yes, it’s double edged. They’re devaluing their currency

And whoever was asking about Japan, it was Japan’s initial response to tariffs, but then Trump put the 90 day hold. China is the one actively dumping bonds, but good. After, they’ll have even less leverage

In the past people such as @LiquidKid and others in that generation could attend college and take positions that disagreed with professors - and even be respected for taking that position if you could back up what you said. Now, disagreeing with a professor is akin to wrongthink and can lead to a failing grade or no degree. With cancel culture still being a thing, the best way to express disagreement is often to silently nod one's head and move on.

The only reason I am not a journalist is because the journalism professor was this ancient left bitch who hated me so much that she called me into her office and flat out told me “drop this class or I will instantly flunk you the moment you make even the slightest typo.”

So no, it wasn’t respectable, but I did it anyway. Fuck professors.

I watched this video now and my takeaway is that 100km range defeated/limited by fog, smog or cloud cover could be helpful for the north sentinalese people, but like, how are you supposed to rely on like a hundred cameras being calibrated well enough to give you data to hit something moving at Mach 1.6? A fraction of a second of discrepancy between the angle the system assumes the cameras to be at would fuck it all up. Better to go to a relative, like keep the horizon line in frame for a point of reference and try to be really specific about altitude, longitude and latitude

Maybe on a ship, it could be helpful for anti drone systems? All the camera mounts would be steel and somewhat precisely measurable

This was incredibly dumb. At 20,000 ft, that F-35 is so tiny that no, a cheap camera is not getting you anything close to what you need to target a missile. Then add to it that your ground camera system is defeated by clouds, night time, and debris, and you've got yourself the most worthless defense system at all time.

The F-35 regularly cruises at 50,000 feet, making this even more ridiculous
