general election debate details cannot be finalized until Democrats formally decide on their nominee
Presidential debates happen between presidential candidates. Democrats don’t have a presidential candidate yet. But they will by the end of the DNC on August 22nd.

Jesus, 18%.
If you had a $200k mortgage, you would be paying $3,000 in just interest every month. And that’s assuming you get the central bank rate, you don’t. Probably looking more at like 20% for a loan an individual can actually get.
Good luck opening or expanding a business with rates like that too.
I feel like this post belongs on !noncredibledefense@sh.itjust.works with absolutely zero changes. Just…the complete disaster that would occur if the ERA ever actually triggers here…
Agreed. Keep the smelly stuff in your own house or outside. Also, you are at a meeting specifically about people trying to get over a drug addiction. Don’t do drugs there.
This seems like a classic use case for a spreadsheet. A good free one is Libre Office (or if you really want an online one, google sheets).
Put your items/prices into a pair of columns, and put a SUM function in the field below the prices to show the total.
Yep, the vast majority of the games I buy at this point are coming from indies.
The main issue is large studios want to make a safe game that does everything and appeals to everyone. Meanwhile, indies are making games that are fun-first and targeted at specific audiences, rather than just the mean.
Games like Factorio could be made by a big studio, but it wasn’t, because it don’t have mass appeal. Meanwhile, if you are in it’s target audience, it is a 10/10 game. And it isn’t like the studio had to shovel $200m into a pit to make this 10/10 game.
Yep. It leads to a positive feedback loop. They just continue to self-reinforce whatever came out before.
And with increasing amounts of the internet being polluted with AI text output…
You can always add “site:lemmy.world” to your search (remove the quotes). I commonly do that, as well as the same for reddit or stack overflow.
There probably are systems to detect a missile launch of this kind
Some aircraft have missile launch detectors that are based on detecting sudden IR blooms in their vicinity. I don’t think many aircraft have them though.
The Su-25, the aircraft in the video, does have a rear-facing IR dazzler. It basically shines an IR flashlight into the ‘eye’ of any missile following the aircraft. This IR missile, however, hit it from the front/left and not the rear, so that dazzler had no opportunity to attempt to confuse the missile.
On Ukraine, got any non twitter suggestions for perspective?
not familiar with OSINT
Exactly what you said! Open Source INTelegence. Basically people taking publicly available data and using it to confirm attacks. Things like NASA FIRMS data can be used to verify where fires are; and when combined with videos of a fire in the direction of an airfield, for example, can be used to confirm that yes, on this specific date, these parts of an airfield are on fire.
In related news today, Top Russian economist dies after falling out of window.
She must not have said the sweet nothings Putin wanted to hear.
so much room for activities
The new Ford class carriers have a nuclear reactor in them that outputs about 2x as much power as the ship actually needs. If/when these are ready for prime time, prepare or some raves on the flight deck!
give me one good reason you would need a fucking assault rifle
Assault rifles have been banned from manufacture for civilians since 1986. Meaning the only people who can afford the few there are are the rich.
No, Harris is talking about banning arms in common use, which are explicitly protected by the right of the people to keep and bear arms. (Re: Heller) One does not need to justify their use of their rights. They simply have it. Just like every other right.
Harris is attacking rights, is grasping the third rail, as one of the first things she says on her campaign trail.
Considering people of all stripes (including Democrats) own guns and appreciate the right to keep and bear arms, that is a very odd idea.
we will work to pass universal background checks, red flag laws, and an assault weapons ban.
She just cannot avoid the third rail that is gun bans. It’s been about a day and already she is going for it.
The US election cycle is too long anyway. I’m very for this idea.
Biden was even more than the presidential candidate, he is the sitting president. A presidential debate between a president and a presidential candidate makes perfect sense, no?
