Can we be totally honest here and just state what the fear is?

If slaves could vote they'd vote for freedom.

There's a hole the size of a railroad junction in the 13nd amendment.

It's a service.

It's a service given to you for free by a company with no apparant way of generating income.

Would you think about that, please?

My first thought when I read op was that trousers are a relative new development.

The Romans made fun of the Gauls for wearing them.

So if you decide to wear traditional Roman dress, trousers shouldn't be included.

But it's still designed for men.

I'm just guessing, but if the plane suddenly decided it's parked and shut down while it's actually in the air ...
We might want that recording.

The Romans calling the Gauls primitive is a bit like the British calling the Americans primitive.

True, but for Gods sake don't look in the mirror.

It's German, and you're about as right as anyone trying to say a German word in English can expect to get.

And Krita.
Like David Revoy

Also Blender? I'm mean if they're adding sound effects.
Sofie Jantak does 2D stuff in Blender

Also don't pirate rain and door knocks, just get them from people who freely share that sort of thing.
Like these

Oh, by the way, text-only browsers are still a thing.

You might want to look at links and/or lynx and see if they cover your usecase.

Hopefully they are enough to disperse Russian anti-aircraft defences.

Wait, what? No!

Yeah, well, I'm sorry, but yes viewing the current Merkins as stupidly violent savages is a thing on this side of the Atlantic.

We Europeans on the other hand would never attack someone without reason.

We've always had reasons, usually some variation of wanting their possesion for ourselves.

And warning: This post contains sarcasm.

You know, that's a good idea anyway.

I wonder though what that would mean for the copyright?

"Who goes there", John Campbell, 1938.

(And I seem to recall more movies that are rehashes of that novella.)

In Buddhism, yes.

For Hindus, well, it's complicated.

For other people who happen to believe in reincarnation?
That would be anybodys guess, I guess.

Denmark has 880 Pirates of all kinds and they "reach" 46% of 15-24 year olds?

That's some bloody effective Pirates right there!

I think what's happening in the US today rhymes hard on the fall of the Roman Republic.

And I'm sorry, but I don't think the people won back then.

Surely the only languages that are not weird are those specifically designed to be widely spoken?

And no-one wants to speak those!

I'm pretty sure the idea of just making a tube and wearing that must be pretty universal.

It's really versatile, after all.

Unfortunately for people who want to (or must) present European male our version is the peplos, which is thought of as strictly female.

You make larger districts that elect more than one representative each.

Or at least that was how it was done here in Denmark.

Heh. I used to run leafnode as my own, in house, single person server.

I'm quite surprised to find out it's still alive and maintained.

It keeps the butter hard and useless?

The vast majority of the value of a consumer facing computer system is in the people who help other people.

They know that.

Or Earth.

Pieces of Earth was do doubt also flung about.

Adventurous cooking is such a good suggestion as a time killer.

It can be done for now and later abandoned if you end lacking the time for it.

Only effect that will have is you learned a bit of some important life skills.

Thank you, I was really wondering what "csb" stood for.

That's actually a nice one.

The purpose of copyright in the USA, and as far as I know in Brittain, yes.

But please remember that in much of the rest of the world copyright is a reaction to people, creators, getting in trouble over third party usage of their creations.

Leading to the idea that a creator should have the power to stop people from using their works for whatever the creator deems objectionable.

There are artists who choose to upload their stuff to YouTube.
Pink Floyd has their own YouTube channel.

It is no doubt a calculated business decision.

What do you guess it will cost, and what will you gain.

Another thing is that it's generally not that difficult to get permission to use other peoples music.

There are standard systems and standard rates for that.

So if I want to use Pink Floyds music I can simply check whether they have opened up for that possibility ( and pay), and I'm good to go.

In Denmark the case surrounding "Nøddebo præstegård" caused copyright to be enacted.

I've noticed the theme come up in other countries, amongst these France, but I'll grant that I may have overestimated its importance by overfitting to prior knowledge.

Or maybe your highschool really had that high level equipment?

You're joking, but the first programming "language" I learned was z80 machinecode in hexadecimal.

Someone below mentioned mandrake. I think that was it.

In which case it would have been 5 or 6 years (and a couple of computers) after giving up on yggdrasil.

I never got yggdrasil to work.

Unfortunately that makes me really wonder, what it was that I eventually got to work.

Something on a lot 3½ inch floppies.

Unfortunately there are people who will trust you if you're well meaning.
Whether or not you have any inkling of how to do what they trust you to do.
Or any intention...

The Japanese attitude seems to be that if there's a way to increase the likelihood that the alert will go through, then they will do that too.

"Israel must respond in a severe heavy-handed way if they are to dissuade any further attacks and keep their people safe"

This newer works!

Simple as that. Look at the evidence, please. This always leads to further violence, and ultimately mass slaugther.

Deterrence and prevention are different from post facto responce, and show of force is different from application of force.

Consider what went wrong in Afghanistan, Iraq, Vitenam. Consider how many Indian lives it took to end the Indian wars the hard way. Consider the Black and Tans in Ireland. Consider what happened when the Nazis slaugthered whole villages. Consider the Sovietunion in that war (27 million lost out of a total population of 200 million)

Now find the cases, please, where actually sending the troops in helped in something like this.

And then take note of how limited the deployment were, or how special the circumstances.

"Undocumented"? "health insurance"?

"Undocumented health insurance"!?

"as long as they met eligibility requirements, including income limits and California residency in 2014."
But not documented!?

Are you quite sure you're all right over there?
