Americans probably should start caring when their government kills people. If it isn't your responsibility, then who's responsibility is it going to be???? The iranians school girls? Gazan babies?

And cry me a river, as if the iranians (among so many others that had/have to endure American sanctions) haven't been experiencing significantly worse economic conditions for the last 50 years. All of a sudden, we need to show compassion towards Americans because they may not be able to "make ends meet" or have to cancel their subscriptions; when Americans themselves can't be bothered to even pretend to care about the people their country bombs.

Get over yourselves and be more responsible, no one on the planet cares you people are "struggling". We all are, and we still do our diligence to make sure our countries at least aren't bombing elementary schools and funding genocides.

The Internet was a bubble, the Internet literally revolutionized how we communicate with each other and is far more of groundbreaking and influential invention than AI.

And the dotcom bubble popped. Just because it's a bubble doesn't mean the thing is useless, AI is no different. It will pop, and AI will stay, but the bubble will pop regardless. This is just the nature of shoveling obscene amounts of money into companies promising the next big thing.

When the AI bubble pops RAM prices will fall back, but they'll never be as low as they were before AI. AI is going nowhere, it's not quite like the Internet but it's still got its uses. So I think you'll see RAM prices fluctuate with an overall positive slope after the bubble pops.

The days of cheap RAM are over for the most part.

I'm sorry that you and your family are going through this, this is a genuinely terrifying situation to be in and you're not overreacting by going to the police or taking this guy seriously.

Considering your logistics, you should look into getting a firearm if you don't have one already. It also doesn't hurt to put in a police report like others suggested. One thing I haven't seen suggested itt: if there are people in your family that are too young for school/daycare or SAHW you need to think about having a contingency plan for them in case you're at work. This could be anything from an escape route if someone gets into the house to having neighbors show up at a phone call (or leaving family with them).

I suppose this is off topic but I'll ask anyway:

The article repeatedly states that the Russian liberal opposition operates almost entirely in exile. I am aware that Putin regularly dominates elections, but I am curious of the liberal opposition's popularity. Has it been growing in recent years, or has the war in Ukraine destroyed whatever appeal they had in the eyes of Russians?

Would appreciate a Russian's view of the situation, but happy to hear other's as well.

It literally won't, Americans are cowards. They won't do a thing beyond laying down and dying.

Everyone that's isn't a conservative will just talk about how this will lead to french revolution and shake their fist in the air about how trump and co "better watch it!" Because Americans are gonna take to the streets at some point and it won't be pretty.

Best you'll get is liberals clamoring about how 2026/2028 their gonna show Republicans the door during midterms or some shit.

Why should you look in that envelope? What could they possibly put in that envelope? If it's a serious diagnosis or poor prognosis then they would tell you upfront about it. That's standard practice for all physicians.
