[Answer: Apophis is 0 threat to Earth - NASA confirmed - it will pass by close nothing to worry about, just a nice view in the sky! - to post:] ◀ 99942 Apophis near travel on April 13, 2029
[Answer: Correct that Screen Act was stopped in Committee and House will never agree on Senate version of KOSA - Neither of these though would have the scary effects acitivists claim - to post:] ◀ Bad news about recent
[Answer: Nothing to be worried about - AI companies NOT forcing up prices, want them low as well - DRAM manufacturers are especially cautious after glut in 2022 - sure to still be entry level devices - situation should be eased a bit in 2027 as new DRAM factories come on line - memory only part of the cost of a device - and hard to predict long term as AI memory and energy use falls rapidly as it scales up - to post:] ◀ RAM Crisis in 2027
Are we safe in the US?
[Answer: This is the Potsdam Institute - an ADVOCACY organization - the claim of a sudden near doubling in warming rate is not very plausible - based on only 10 years data and only allowing for El Nino / La Nina - didn't allow for any of the longer term warm water movement cycles in the oceans - to post:] ◀ Accelerating of warming
[Answer: Nothing to be scared of - small commercial type FPV drone flown slowly - did have explosives perhaps semtex - but not resembling a military drone - didn't need to detonate it so they can examine it with forensics - to post:] ◀ Drone in Germany
[Answer: Just an introduced bill - most of these go nowhere - anyway child protection bills like this don't pass into law - even if they pass both chambers separately - because the two chambers never agree on whether tech companies should be held liable (duty of care) - this one is modelled on California's Digital Age Assurance Act which comes into force in 2027 - but this likely goes nowhere at Federal level - California bill only asks user to enter a birth date into operating system for more age appropriate experience - birth date is not age verified - but not at all likely to become law - to post:] ◀ Senate Bill Would Put Age Checks in Every US Operating System
[Answer: Just a small minority view religion - CAN'T BECOME LAW IN THE US - 1st amendment prohibits Congress from establishing a religion - to post:] ◀ Noahide Laws
[Answer: Expected as Trump pardoned the remaining prisoners - courts can't override that - he has pardon power for Federal crimes - governors or state boards pardon State crimes - a small number reoffended for other crimes and ended back in prison - to post:] ◀ Judge signs off on closing Jan. 6 court case
[Answer: No this is GARBAGE and the author HAS TO KNOW THAT - You need to look at HOW the Screen act DEFINES "harmful to minors" - only blocks content that is patently offensive with respect to what's suitable to minors - plus two categories of already illegal content - to post:] ◀ Screen Act's danger and threat
[Answer: Not in any way a world conflict - just NK adding another 40 missiles to the 150 it supplied Russia with from 2023 to 2025 - and 90 of their specialists this time to advise probably - like the Iranians did for Shaheds in 2022 - does NOT make NK a target for Ukraine or anyone else - the war is NOT going to expand to NK but remains local to Uraine and Russia - just like the Gulf war didn't expand even to participating countries never mind suppliers - to post:] ◀ North Korean missile units deployed to russia
Annoyed about Conspiracies
[Answer: No NONE OF THIS IS AT RISK - the bill can't pass anyway - House and Congress are as far apart as the North and South poles at present conceptually - and the bills DO NOT SAY WHAT THESE PEOPLE CLAIM THEY SAY - NONE of this is happening in the UK with stronger laws to protect kids - even the under 16 social media ban in 2027 will likely have little effect because most young kids use Whats App for messaging and group chat - to post:] ◀ Digital World at Risk
[Answer: No Congress did NOT vote to integrate US and Israeli military - can't happen - House voted for much more limited technology sharing and integration - Senate opposed that too - also has Iran war funding controversies - so can't pass - shelved until after mid terms - to post:] ◀ Angry Vent and Scared for the future
[Answer: UK gasoline and diesel prices going up but not likely to go higher than previous Iran war PEAK - to post:] ◀ UK Fuel prices keep going up!
[Answer: US is NOT vulnerable to attacks on itself - DID use vast numbers of missiles and interceptors in the Iran war - NOT KNOWN EXACTLY how many it had at the start - likely couldn't continue a war like the Iran war for many more weeks without risk to its own soldiers in the Middle East - different types of missiles needed to protect the US - and generals will make sure they don't go too low - to post:] ◀ missiles
[Answer: Trump has threatened numerous times and does nothing - Nothing Trump can do or he'd have done it already - low on air defence interceptors - wants to unblock the Strait - can't decapitate anyway as they'd just elect another Supreme Leader - and soon after Rubio and Bessent announced progress to a potential deal - to post:] ◀ Last Chance?
[Answer: Thoroughly UNRELIABLE blog post - the author hasn't read the page they link to - example rules require any identifiable material to be immediately deleted or deidentified (i.e. blur out everything identifiable except birth date) - and provide at least one alternative that does NOT require a government ID - post falsely claims it requires government IDs to be kept forever - to post:] ◀ New York Safety Bill
[Answer: No it is NOT a war on NSFW which is protected free speech in the USA - Tumblr ban was to keep Tumblr App compatible with Apple policy for iPhones - nothing to do with FOSTA or any legislation - 7 months after FOSTA - only 2 weeks after it was removed from the app store - and led to it returning to iPhones and other Apple devices - to post:] ◀ War on NSFW
