FTFY

I mean those are two reasons it was kept, but there's also:

• It's based on a historical English law
• Wild predators
• Police back then were sometimes days away (and still hours away today in some cases)
• Hunting for food
• Shooting the French
• Shooting the Spanish
• The revolutionists were tired of raiding garrisons every time they needed armament
• The founding fathers wanted to keep their war ships

Putting antennas and batteries in mines increases production cost.

The mine would broadcast it's signal, effectively telling the opposing army exactly where it is so they can disarm it. Effectively rendering mines useless, more of a speed bump than anything.

The specific mine used is effective against people, but known to sometimes not even pop car tires. Absolutely worst case scenario: farmers can run a tractor plow over the fields a few times.

If Russia upholds their signing of the Geneva convention they're actually responsible for removing all of their mines after the conflict is over.

But we all know they'll say the mines are either Ukraine's or Wagner's and not remove them.

Tbf Russia's PFM-1 is based off the US' BLU-43. The difference is the US went "Oh wow, this is a really bad situation" and stopped using them half a century ago.

Double tbf: Ukraine also has 5.5 million of these mines themselves.

By that loose definition political parties are memes.

I'm about to leave Lemmy too because the main thing that shows up is /c/memes and half the time the posts aren't memes and when they are they're just reposts from 10 years ago.

Owning a personal weapon has been a thing since humans evolved

The "beautiful presentation" in question

Twitter was doing fine financially before Musk bought it.

No it wasn't 😂

He just lit a sinking ship on fire, yes it's worse but it was bad before too.

You say that like x-posting isn't a common term

Actually if he uses a color besides blue/purple it'll make Twitter stand out from the crowd.

I mean... it's not going to go well with Elon at the helm, but it's too early to hate on a rebrand just yet.

Wait what? Oh God that's a horrible way to lay out data

They didn't milk it until later

They cancelled every piece of single player DLC in order to force people online and towards the Shark Cards.

"Lack of moderation/failure to moderate". The admins have banned plenty of subs for it in the past, replacing the mods is actually a measured approach for them.

Rip imgur and their new policy then...
