LOL, do you believe any of that? Government doing it is quite comical too. I say it's "The Dumbocrats"..... They payed the hackers to do it. :stirthepot:

Pretty concerned. States without refineries are gonna run out of gas. Virginia, Georgia, and the Carolinas are already experiencing shortages.

"Roughly 240 gas stations across Georgia, or about 3.8% of the state’s total, had run out of fuel by Tuesday morning, according to GasBuddy, which compiles the data when drivers report such outages. In Virginia, that figure was 7.5%. More than 5% of North Carolina gas stations were out of fuel and about 1.7% of the total in South Carolina."

I heard they did it to accelerate demand for EVs.

As opposed to demand for EWs, which has been, is at, and will remain at zero.

Saw in the news that Robbinsville, NC is out of gas at the Shell station. Don't expect to get any in for 4 to 6 days. I can't go to Zdayz this year. I have to much to do at work. I would be bringing my own fuel though. LOL

the real issue is the idiots thinking there is a real shortage and hoarding just like everything else when things go wrong.

the pipeline said it'll all be back to 100% normal by the weekend.

i question the intelligence of the human race more and more each day :facepalm:

Hey Rusty, ask Chris if her Cryptanthus bromeliads flower for her. One of mine flowered after a couple years.

Just ask Snowden. He was just a tip.

Id love to have been on some of the skunkworks projects. Closest I got was making parts for the prototype helicopter we used in the Bin Laden raid, back in '97.

Bryan with ZDayZ must be eating himself about now. Last year was the virus. This year, a gas shortage. And high rental rates. The Gods are angry at him for moving from The Dragon.

Why would that be your first conclusion? Look, Megan works in cybersecurity and her first comment was that it's amazing this hasn't happened before. The number of cyber attacks occurring on a daily basis is staggering. You can also tell where they originate, in most cases. China and Russia are the #1 and #2 bad actors from a corporate perspective, by far.

Reposted for truth. :tup:

Not everything is a fvcking conspiracy theory. :shakes head:

The world is plenty fvcked up enough all by itself and people are plenty lazy, stupid and selfish enough to explain pretty much every bad going’s on.

(Except aliens, that’s def a coverup). :happydance:

A lot of the technology they pushed aside for now just isn't cost efficient yet. Once they get the cost under control, then we will see it. 10 to 15 yrs later. If NASA ever at their act together like they did for the Apollo missions. You would see an explosion of tech. Funny thing is. NASA can't build the F1 rocket motors for the Saturn booster any more. They don't know how the engineers did it back then. All the notes were lost.

The end for her is near. She won't get reelected. No support for her in her home state.
