They were trying to foment activism among the rank and file and you know it. That is conduct unbecoming of an officer.

And none could give an example of an illegal order.

Probably the same thing Rolls Royce is building. I almost pulled the trigger at $1.25... and thought i was too late at $3 and definitely too late at $7.

re: Trumps message to Canada

Trump negotiated the USMCA during his first term. This is what he said about it.

The USMCA was always meant to be a stepping stone to separate bilateral trade agreements with Mexico and Canada. Unluckily for the Canadians, Trump had a sabbatical and will set up the new agreements. He will not renegotiate the USMCA. He will let it lapse. It's masterful really.

take the time to read this

quote:
Going all the way back to the replacement of NAFTA, with the USMCA, President Trump always said he did not favor multilateral trade deals with multiple countries; instead, he preferred bilateral free trade agreements.

As a result, the USMCA -or CUSMA as said in Canada- is not in alignment with a bilateral free trade agreement, and the conflicted differences between trade with Mexico and trade with Canada are an outcome of this dynamic. The solution is simply to eliminate the multilateral in favor of the bilateral approach. This is the objective of President Trump as expressed.

There is zero leverage on the Canadian side of the trade negotiation, zero.

Why do people hate criticisms of something that is clearly causing an epidemic upon young males in this country?

I think the point he was making is that, yes marijuana use has gone up, but alcohol consumption has gone down. And i would argue the past numbers are BS because more people admit it now that the stigma has loosened.

re: I recently told yall about MS365 and Agents. Claudbot is already taking over

when you get the summarization, summarize that and post it here.

The video introduces Clawbot, an open-source AI agent that runs locally on your computer and acts as a 24/7 autonomous employee. Unlike standard chatbots, this tool has zero guardrails and complete control over your mouse, keyboard, and applications. It features "infinite memory," meaning it retains context from all past interactions and doesn't need to be reminded of previous tasks or preferences.

You interact with the bot entirely through messaging apps like Telegram or iMessage, allowing you to text tasks to your computer from anywhere in the world.

In just 48 hours, the speaker used the agent to proactively scrape news for morning briefings, write code and push it to GitHub, and even build its own Kanban board to track tasks. He emphasizes that it can handle complex workflows, such as "vibe coding" entire applications or organizing files into a structured "second brain" without human intervention.

However, the creator issues a strong warning: because the AI has total system control, running it on your primary computer risks accidental file deletion or mishandling of personal data. He suggests using a dedicated machine, like a Mac Mini or a cheap VPS, to keep it contained. He concludes that while this tech could enable one-person billion-dollar companies, it also poses a significant risk of job displacement.

There's a setting you can change in fidelity that does the math for you I believe. Meaning it will sell the last in first if the tax is less than long term cap gains.
