Probably the same way we can know things like if you break a glass, it’s gonna stay broken. Or if you cut off a finger that it stays cut off.

Probably seen telomere damage from radiation or some such. Some sort of thing which doesn’t grow back naturally. So sans technology that will change our biology, we know some things are permanent.

Although like 20 years ago I could’ve used a tooth falling off as an example, but I first read about tooth regrowing studies in a science mag in the early 00’s and 20 years later we’re kinda there actually. The researchers hope to have it for general use by 2030. A tooth regrowing drug! Phase-1 human trials already concluded without adverse effects.

Inb4 all staircases look like this

So we could solve all the trillionaires with just one bullet?

Quick, get the gun before they start increasing in numbers!

Banning things online is even less effective than the war on drugs.

Ever heard of this thing called the Streisand-effect?

Lisa would know the only way for her to get braces is for the working class to revolt.

It’s not 1989 anymore, you can’t support a house and a family of five on a single working man’s salary. (Nuclear technician with 35 years experience, maybe…)

I’m very much out of the loop I think.

Define “buttery” pls.

Any market for pale Nordic males?

This is why I stopped playing ARC. Felt like it was just conditioning to prefer shooting-on-sight than being friendly. That or being a sociopath and lying and shooting someone in the back.

Neither of which are properties I like to even play pretend having.

You’re very correct in your comment, btw. Nowadays US uses methods that condition people so well that the shoot-to-kill amount of soldiers is like ~95%. In WWII (and everything preceding it) it was roughly 2% of men who were quite literally psychopaths (not in the criminal sense, but a sense of being able to turn off their empathy, many surgeons and ceos belong to this group of ppl). Only <25% of soldiers in a position to fire at the enemy actually shot at them. About 1% of US fighter pilots accounted for ~50% their kills.

Lindybeige has what I think is a fairly good video on the subject.

Shooting to kill - how many men can do it

Humanitarian law is also designed to protect civilian objects, including those indispensable to the survival of the civilian population. Article 29 of the Convention on the law relating to the non-navigational uses of international watercourses [available on http://www.un.org/], adopted by the General Assembly of the United Nations in 1997, stipulates:

“International watercourses and related installations, facilities and other works shall enjoy the protection accorded by the principles and rules of international law applicable in international and non-international armed conflict and shall not be used in violation of those principles and rules”.

General protection under the law applicable to armed conflicts extends to more than international watercourses, and the four main prohibitions laid down in that law are worth noting:

the ban on employing poison or poisonous weapons; the ban on destroying, confiscating or expropriating enemy property; the ban on destroying objects indispensable to the survival of the civilian population; the ban on attacking works or installations containing dangerous forces.

The four prohibitions, to which should be added the provisions on environmental protection, are expressly mentioned in the instruments relating to international armed conflicts, and the last two are also laid down in the law applicable to non-international armed conflicts. Starvation as a method of warfare is explicitly prohibited regardless of the nature of the conflict, and the concept of objects essential for the survival of the civilian population includes drinking-water installations and supplies and irrigation works. Immunity for indispensable objects is waived only when these are used solely for the armed forces or in direct support of military action. Even then, the adversaries must refrain from any action which could reduce the population to starvation or deprive it of essential water.

No I’m not. I’d hate getting spam calls.

Doesn’t matter where I go to, though. I’ve had this phone number since like 96 and it’s always been non-listed, so commercial services can’t get it unless I give it to them.

I had some calls for a gym membership a few years after I drunkenly put it into some lottery or another but I told them there’s a marketing ban on the number and they gave up.

I literally never get spam calls. NEVER.

How many wealthy dodge taxes?

Ban the rich!

Those two things aren’t mutually exclusive.

One can be a fucking idiot and Putler’s lapdog.

Saying “we don’t know for a fact he’s working for the Russians” is just willful ignorance.

The aforementioned claims by Shvets, which were also a significant basis for Craig Unger’s best-selling book, American Kompromat: How the KGB Cultivated Donald Trump, and Related Tales of Sex, Greed, Power, and Treachery, were also backed by Alnur Mussayev, former head of Kazakhstan’s intelligence service, and Sergei Zhyrnov, an ex-KGB officer living in France.[26] Mussayev also asserted that Trump is compromised:

I have no doubt that Russia has kompromat on the US President, that over the course of many years the Kremlin has been promoting Trump to the post of President of the main world power

What does pitching a zipper even mean?

Yeah no. That’s not good business, for small dealers. Only large ones looking to improve their margins and completely without morals.

Pretty much the only people who do that are actual medical doctors (who’ve gotten convinced into believing some lies by pharma reps who are the lowest of the low) and sample offerers at large grocery stores.

I mean I’ve had free hits from my dealers, and given out free hits. Of weed. While someone is buying weed. So it’s not like I’m pushing it on anyone or anyone is pushing anything on me.

Drug propaganda is mostly lies yeah.

Legalise, educate, tax and regulate.

I’m not British. :)

They were busy hiding in their bunkers while real countries actually fought and died.

The US refused to enter the war for years because it was afraid.

You can’t help but project, can you?

Also, didn’t you guys lose to a bunch of ricefarmers with sticks and muskets?

also “found him annoying” is a weird euphemism for “stalking while committing multiple hate crimes and threatening” but that’s why L

No, it isn’t. Even if the guy was being a racist asshole, of which there’s no evidence, despite him having filmed the interaction, that doesn’t justify murder. Jesus, this is like talking to a toddler. No, you can’t stab a person to death because you didn’t like him when he was walking home from a bar.

What fkin stalking? Why are you making up shit?

And even if he did, that’s still not an immediate threat to his life that wouldn’t even non-lethal force, let alone lethal force, let alone stabbing him all over five fucking times.

You’re just a shitstirrer though. I don’t believe you’re actually that illiterate. Or American, tbh. No wörries, I like writing. Keep stirring.
