  • Your will will be enforced until such a time comes where nobody really cares anymore and the trust you set up ran out of money. Probably around the time when there's no one alive that met you personally. I'm sure a lot of Romans and Egyptians, emperors, empresses, kings and queens had wills too. Even the pharaos had their graves dug up and put in a museum for everyone to see. Just embrace it, you'll be gone, off to a merry afterlife or the quiet obliviousness of non existence. Why worry so much about bones.

  • At some point someone will stop paying for the cemetery plot and that plot will go to somebody else, usually 50 years after the person is dead and all their direct relatives don't care anymore. The old bones are buried deeper or cremated and the grave stones will be recycled. Corpses don't become permanent owners of cemetery land. Maybe in some honorary great war cemetery as a recognition of the sacrifices, but not as a norm. They're leased for the purposes of decomposition.

    Some families can buy mausoleums, which are like little houses on the cemetery, where they end up keeping all the bones of several people all piled up in jars after the bodies are decomposed, but these mausoleums have to be paid for by someone who is alive and at some point there are no descendants or the descendants are too poor to pay or don't care to pay thousands of euros every so often for the plot and maintenance dues on dead people, so they are torn down and the bones put into the deeper parts of the cemetery with everyone else, where, depending on the soil, it takes between 30-50 years to decompose the bones, provided the cemetery is built on appropriate decomposing ground, but sometimes over 100 if the soil is not appropriate for a cemetery.

  • Any attack or occupation of a country member of the NATO treaty may trigger an article 5 declaration to which all NATO member countries are forced to answer or risk the breakdown of the NATO treaty alliance. Denmark is a NATO country. If Trump decides to pull an Israel, he risks a loss of military, geopolitical and trade allies, as well as a possible war and perhaps even the support of his constituency. If the US tried, it would be like chopping both of its legs and then one of the arms. The downspiral would be catastrophic.

    Fat chance the Trump wranglers would let it get that far. He's a useful idiot but his powers aren't unlimited and i like to believe the people who actually govern the US aren't complete idiots. Greedy, inhumane, arrogant, ignorant, cruel and warmongering monsters, yes, but not complete idiots.

  • Man, it's days like this i feel bad for not paying my taxes in Ireland. What an exemplary attitude. I wish Israel left my country too. Europe should all be making Israel unwelcome, not cozy up to them.

    We've had enough genocidal, ethnic cleansing, mass murder, racist regimes.

  • Honestly, they don't really need to prove malicious intent. The stakeholders of the cable should hold the ship owner liable for the cost of repairs, holding the ship captive as collateral until such a time comes that the amount is paid. If the cost can't be paid, then confiscate the ship and sell it to recoup the cost and as a deterrent measure.

    Whether or not they did it intentionally and why is a matter that should be left to intelligence agencies who will interrogate the crew and collect information about the ship to understand what's going on and act accordingly.

  • How much do you have to suck to run a campaign against Donald Trump and lose twice. Other world leaders outright say he speaks like a child.

    At the end of the day you can blame the electorate all damn day or you can recognize the embarrassment that is the US democratic party and the campaigns they ran, completely missing the mark.

  • Better do it with the army conducting training exercises nearby then. Appeasement doesn't work with these kinds of people. They will strike and if conflict is inevitable, might as well push your enemy to meet you on your terms rather than when they're ready.

    Of course i don't mean striking first, certainly not in this situation. But carrying out defense within one's borders isn't exactly something the international community would see as a valid enough cause of provocation for a preemptive strike. Israel is losing support worldwide and cracks are starting to form in their economy.

    Imagine if Ukraine had properly built defenses when it was clear Russia was about to attack them, instead of starting to build them 6 months after Russia invaded, hoping they wouldn't attack. The amount of manpower they would have saved. How many times must history teach the same lesson over and over again. How come we even have armies like the Lebanese army who wouldn't even defend their own citizens from an invading foreign force just to appease. It just doesn't seem right to me.

  • It's a matter of time until Israel starts taking Jordan land as well. The writing is on the wall. If i was responsible for defense in Jordan, I'd start constructing defensive fortifications, anti air and military communications infrastructure as soon as possible.

    I don't know how much that would help though, the US will actively put down anyone who tries to defend themselves from Israeli expansion.

  • Why rebuild something when you can repurpose it ?

    In many places around the world old structures like warehouses, train stations, churches, convents, fire houses and other things are seen as an architectural opportunity to repurpose as housing, usually due to cost, but that lead to very unique dwellings that end up influencing other houses that are built from the ground up. Architects pounce at opportunities like this. The results are often superior to what a standard house built from the ground up would be.

  • The thing about anonymity that a lot of people don't get is that there is no such thing as 100% anonymous. Vpn makes it more expensive to track you. Tor makes it more expensive to track you. Good opsec makes it more expensive to track you but ultimately, if you've got a target on your back, there is no way to be 100% anonymous.

    The thing you gotta ask yourself is, what is your threat model ? Are you hiding from LEO on account of torrents or just want some privacy from corporations? VPN is fine. Are you buying drugs on the darkweb ? TOR is fine. Are you selling drugs on the darkweb ? You probably need a more sophisticated masking network mesh. Are you involved in CSAM or run a darkweb market ? Nothing you do will help you, you are going to get caught, that is a certainty.

    Don't go wasting your precious brain matter on developing a leak free network. There is no such thing. If someone wants badly to track you down, with enough money, they will. Best you can do is be a little bit more trouble than it's worth to spend on you. For some things, like i mentioned before, there is a cutoff point where you're as anonymous as you'll ever be. For others, there is basically unlimited resources to track you. Even using TOR, they can get you at your entry node, like it has happened before, if no one else in your neighborhood is connected to TOR.

  • I mean, i can see why. What are a few drugs, tax fraud and gun felony next to being cumplicit in the genocide of an entire people.

    I bet Biden is proud of his son, for being a little better than him. Hopefully, Hunter's son will only get speeding tickets.

  • Biden is great at pretending he's doing something. A non functional pier. A ceasefire that lasts 2 days. Convoys of food that never got to Gaza.

    Just the perfect president to put in the middle of a Trump sandwich. Bon appetit, America.

  • I wish i heard less about Elon Musk. I'm so tspped out on this dude. Every time a new article has Elon Musk in the title my eyes involuntarily roll over into the back of my skull as both an expression of annoyance and a self defense mechanism.

  • So yeah, there is no credibility for the ICC. Because of the actions of these countries, the ICC is now a theater court for theater cases. The whole world was watching and it was demonstrated that its use is merely a political tool for countries that aren't part of a specific sphere of influence and not an impartial court of international law.

    What a shame and disgrace. We will ALL suffer the repercussions of the actions taking place today by countries such as France, the US and Germany.
