Yes, those things can be done, and they’re good ideas. One key difference between the U.S. and North Korea thing is that Russia can, or at least is believed to be able to, use a nuclear response anywhere in the world. North Korea couldn’t threaten the U.S. with nuclear reprisal. But, yes, removing the entrenched and uncompromising leader is the first step, and that is much harder against a nuclear power.
Of course, none of that is possible against a nuclear power, because it first relies on unconditional surrender. I also don’t think any leaders in the world have to political will to do that, either.
On an unrelated topic, I used to work with someone who could type just fine with winter gloves on. She would do this all thentime because the office was so cold.
Still using Nova? I stopped using it when Branch bought it, about a year after I bought the paid version.
Yeah, I don’t see getting worked up about artistic taste. No one is forcing g them to read their stuff, and if someone actually is, their problem should be with whoever is forcing them to.
Let people enjoy their shit and move on.
Interesting. I lean more towards equity rather than equality, and giving options rather than removing them.
I’m not sure I get what you’re saying? You’re a guy and can’t stop yourself from staring at other guys’ chests?
It’s absolutely cultural, like so many sexual taboos, but it is a pretty common cultural norm.
Guys in general like breasts and, until going topless is normalized, those who do will get looks. It’s awkward, I’m sure. Perhaps we need a topless pride parade so no one is singled out and we can jumpstart the change in social norms.
Similar for me. In the moment, talking about dying doesn’t feel like a joke. After you’ve seen enough and come out the other side, death doesn’t feel significant or threatening enough to have to worry about joking about. I feel like those who joke about killing themselves have either never felt like doing it or have confronted it and moved on.
And suicide jokes are probably best kept for groups where you know where people are. A lot of people mask being suicidal by joking around and putting a lot of work into being upbeat, often surprising those who only know them superficially when they commit suicide.
…as long as they aren’t bombing stuff.
Which brings up interesting questions about liberty and if you have a right to help people who can’t ask for help or don’t want it.
I’m not sure how lazy you are, or how much you like to experiment, but someone on Lemmy mentioned Artisan Bread in 5 Minutes a Day. While it isn’t hyperbole, it will be a while before you reach this speed.
The big points for me are that most of the steps are, “do something else while stuff happens.” There is no kneading and no need for special tools, although a big container you can mostly seal and something that can withstand having water poured into it while being at oven temperatures are a big help. A mixer with a dough hook is also helpful if you don’t want to put in the effort to mix by hand, but a bowl, plastic wrap, a wooden spoon, and measuring spoons and cups are all you need.
I liked the results enough to buy their book, and everything I’ve made has turned out at worst alright (which isnt a whole lot because…lazy). Depending on the recipe, you can store the dough in the fridge for a couple weeks (do this regularly), or you can parbake and freeze loaves (never done this). Before doing this, I had only made bread in a bread machine, which never worked out too well for me, or helping my mom with kneading decades ago, which I hated.
It also goes to any TV or radio they’re using! The fools!
The one thing I’m not egalitarian about- straight men need to be taught to pee sitting down, or at least lift the seat, damn. I know it’s not all of you, but there are a couple of animals out there that need help. :p
This isn’t really a gender issue, either, but I acknowledge men tend to be more of a problem here. But the solution is simple and egalitarian (or feminist, if you prefer): If you make a mess, clean it up. It also works in places besides the bathroom.
Well, as long as you’re the only one with a busy life, I suppose that makes sense, but you still haven’t explained why I should put in more effort than you’re willing to.
As for the hole in the top, it doesn’t matter if he makes another hole that doesn’t require the top hole first. So sorry for not reviewing the video to be sure. If only I had cautioned that this specific video may not be relevant, but there were similar ones that would be. If only…
That search was 2 minutes of my time combined with previous knowledge. The information you need is there. If you don’t want to put in the effort to find it, why should I?
Rob Bob’s Aquaponics channel has a lot of DIY stuff, and I’m certain I’ve seen him add spigots at some point or other. Here’s a link that I think has him doing something like what you’re looking for. If it doesn’t, some searching through his decade of videos will get you results.
“Technically, if your computer breaks and you can’t recover those games after Valve decides to close its doors, those games are gone forever.” Yeah, and? Is there a storefront that doesn’t apply to? Just how long do you think CDs and floppy disks (and the hardware to access them) last, if you haven’t lost them already? Is it more or less than Valve’s lifespan so far?
I honestly agree, and said as much shortly after the invasion of Ukraine. Based on the world’s assessment, they should have just steamrolled them, and didn’t. I also said it would behoove the world powers to reassess their nuclear capability and got a lot of downvotes. The facts as they stand now, though, is the NK can’t get a nuke to American territory, not even Alaska (let’s not talk about Guam and Samoa, even America barely acknowledges they’re part of America). Russia, on the other hand, might be able to, and we don’t know for sure they can’t. All they need is one good sub with working missiles. None of this really matters for Europe, and even 10% of their stockpile working would be devastating for the world, or at least the people living on it. I’d like to think that Putin put more effort into maintaining their status as a nuclear world power, but I would have thought the same of being a military world power, too.
