"Who goes there", John Campbell, 1938.

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

Yeah , but ...

In Paris we fought and were massacred.
In Korea/Manchuria we fought and were massacred.
In Ukraine we fought and were massacred.
And as you say in Spain we fought, but then we were massacred.

There's more of course, but you get the idea.

Something probably should be done differently in the future.

So, yeah, looking at those examples I'd say we should try to prevent our opponets from going fascist.

If there's anything fascists are good at it's murdering lots and lots of people, so Id say we should stop them from gaining a following or try to remove their following if they already got one.

Easier said then done, but, to steal your words, doesn't mean it's impossible.

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

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

You know, that's a good idea anyway.

I wonder though what that would mean for the copyright?

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 Secret Superpower of Civilization.

"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?

Yeah.

Forgetting while searching for a pen is also a thing. (It'll be in my bloody pocket, the one I always carry a pen in!)

So yeah.

Pen and paper.

Voice recorder.

Court rules automakers can record and intercept owner text messages (therecord.media)

An Annapolis, Maryland-based company, Berla Corporation, provides the technology to some car manufacturers but does not offer it to the general public, the lawsuit said. Once messages are downloaded, Berla’s software makes it impossible for vehicle owners to access their communications and call logs but does provide law...

State law is one thing, but to me it seems obvous that "his or her right to be secure in their papers" has been broken.

Edit: Unfortunately the founders formulated that as a limit on government, again not actually succeding in securing any rights.

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

Depending on what they mean by "private" throwing i2p on there instead of ddns might be just the ticket.

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.

pragmakist,

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?

pragmakist, to AskKbin

So There's This System where you can specify which language you're writing in, and I always write in English.

So why, oh God why, does it keep insisting on changing it to Danish?

I mean, Kbin please, could you ask me?

Or just bloody remember what I always set it to (when I accidentially remember to set it)?

given how little one vote matter, it seems to me that stripping felons of their right to vote is both petty and counterproductive if the point was to reform them into civic minded individuals ?

Also, seems kind of scary that this implies a future where so many people are in prison that their vote could actually tip the balance ?

pragmakist,

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.

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.

pragmakist,

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.

pragmakist,

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.
