As a responsible gun owner: they can and should take his guns away. There's multiple felonies he can be charged with and he'll almost certainly be convicted of at least one.
It absolutely is and the people who shoot at others for showing up on their property are 100% paranoid assholes watching too much Fox News. Hell, you can even legally camp on private property as long as you're not within view of the house. I don't suggest doing that, on account of the crazies.
I think it's super annoying how cops handle weapons in incredibly irresponsible ways. You shouldn't be be walking around with your pistol drawn, you only pull it out if you're going to immediately use it. The reason why is exactly what happened. Handling your gun unnecessarily will increase the number of negligent discharges, because of course it will. Aside from needless property damage, more negligent discharges mean more innocent people get shot for no reason.
Yeah this kind of casual title is very rare, and it's always just a small addition to an otherwise straightforward title. No one would allow for a purely cheeky title and no author would want one anyway. The first thing people use to judge the relevance of your paper is the title. If it's not immediately obvious what it's about, they're not going to look further. Immediately obvious for someone in a related field, anyway.
Some people think repping their credentials is conceited. Independent of that, I'm on team do-what-you-want-it's-your-title-just-make-sure-it's-descriptive-so-the-reader-still-knows-what-the-article-is-about.
Under Joseph Stalin, the Soviet Union recriminalized homosexuality in a decree signed in 1933. The new Article 121, which punished "muzhelozhstvo" with imprisonment for up to 5 years, saw raids and arrests. Female homosexuals were sent to mental institutions. The decree was part of a broader campaign against "deviant" behavior and "Western degeneracy". Following Stalin's death, there was a liberalisation of attitudes toward sexual issues in the Soviet Union, but homosexual acts remained illegal. Discrimination against LGBT individuals persisted in the Soviet era, and homosexuality was not officially declassified as a mental illness until 1999.

Since 2000, a campaign by Russian president Vladimir Putin and the Russian Orthodox Church to promote "traditional Russian values" and oppose "liberalism" in regards to homosexuality has led to many pieces of anti-LGBT legislation being passed federally, including the banning of distribution of "propaganda of non-traditional sexual relationships to minors" in 2013, an amendment in Russia's constitution banning same-sex marriage passed in 2020, and expansion of the 2013 propaganda law signed in 2022 to apply it to anyone, regardless of age.
Yeah that can be tough, some people view criticism as the same thing as total opposition, especially on the internet where personal history is non-existent and hyperbole is rampant. It can help to couple your criticism with something that lets those people know you're still on their side.
He died from a MRSA infection, which can and does kill people at any stage of life. That shit is everywhere, but whether you get sick or not is kinda a crap shoot.
The most charitable analysis is that they're extremely ignorant. After that, it's they've buried their heads in the sand, which is idiotic. After that, it's that they think things would improve under fascism, which is also idiotic. After that, it's that they somehow think that Trump is actually an intelligent and qualified person, which is also idiotic.
The people targeted by this kind of image in the comments are people who would have voted for Biden and other Democrats. It causes people to either become apathetic and fail to vote (or do any other meaningful action to influence their government) or to become angry and refuse to vote in protest. But, in order to have that effect it most be coupled with some amount of "both sides" rhetoric or "not good enough" rhetoric. Criticism by itself is not enough.
Mint is aimed at normies. The fewer barriers to entry, the better. If you give users the option for a "clean" install there will be people who select it, not knowing what they're doing, and then end up with a borderline non-functional computer as far as they're concerned. To put it another way, they expect it to have stuff pre-installed. Finally, what counts as essentials and what counts as bloat? Text editor? Media player? Photo viewer? Internet browser?
That being said, I understand why you might not like getting extra programs you didn't ask for. Luckily, they're very easy to uninstall and forget about.
Nah, the comment was referencing signal from two layers up in the conversation, when Google messages was only one layer up.
For me, the whole reason I switched to Signal was because it would do both encrypted and SMS. Then they repeatedly made terrible decision after terrible decision and when they dropped SMS I had zero reason to keep using it. I don't like that Google messages is run by Google, but at least I don't have yet another messaging app to deal with.
Do any of these also support SMS? I'll switch back if I can have my encrypted message comingle with my SMS messages. Signal dropping SMS was the primary reason I left.
I actually would like to know the answer. Maybe he's trying to get an easy win over the West? Maybe he's trying to more strongly align with the Muslim world?
