  • The campaign strategy is a method of using the electoral hubbub for advertising that literally opens doors and gets politically unengaged people to think about politics. It's been pretty successful in peeling potential new members off of electoralism. They've basically doubled their membership as a direct result of the 2024 campaign.

    Knocking a door or handing out a flyer for a campaign with reasonable goals most people support is going to be a much more effective strategy than deploying a pop-up ad on the web or walking up to someone and saying "Do you have a minute to talk about our Lord and Savior, Josef Stalin?" which is the only thing average Americans will hear if you start trying to talk about politics outside of the educationally designated be all and end all of politics that is electoralism.



  • I'm thinking they'll be more like the Puch or Adler of WWIII. Maybe the Kodak or Opel. They're not gonna come out of this being a dominant brand, they lack the affordability and scalability needed to be a major part of the post-war rebuilding, but also lack the ability to make a viable military vehicle. Troubled Wunderwaffen at best.

    I can imagine a Tesla MRAP or Jeep that's constantly used for propaganda, but never actually sees service because it doesn't work. After the war, I see the brand being bought up by another manufacturer or just fading into irrelevance. Supercharger network gets bought out and rebranded, and a handful of cars remain on the streets with the internet-dependent features disabled, sticking around in the used market.






  • Yeah. Genuinely not fun. Apologies if my initial comment came off as glib.

    Some types of testicular cancers produce HCG, which is what most pregnancy tests identify the presence of in urine. HCG could also be used as a treatment method for hypogonadism, but supplementation of exogenous Luteinizing Hormone with LHRH would be a more direct way of both diagnosing and treating hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.

    Anyways, if anyone who reads this ever notices something strange on their testis, talk to a doctor. Peeing on a stick isn't a reliable way of identifying testicular cancer, as many forms won't produce HCG and the negative result on the pregnancy test could lead to a false reassurance.








  • I have yet to find a single compliant CAT 7/a cable anywhere but from industrial suppliers. It's been 15 years, can we get consumer grade 10Gig already? Or even just "multigig" devices below the $200 mark?

    2024 is very silly. Games are now 100 GB, require 12 gigs of VRAM, and you need a $5,000 home network infrastructure unless you wanna be stuck in the world of neo-dialup speeds.
