Yeah the primarchs do it, and it's kinda weird. But they are inhuman monsters that have to serve as generals and politicians, so I forgive them.

When space Marines do it the it's kinda like how priests refer to each other as brother, but also battle brother is a rank.

I think it is also there to make things seem more theatric/dramatic. Like just how many books start with a dramatis personae? We're not reading about people, we're reading about characters in a space opera. No matter how you look at it, it's still pretty silly.

I have a couple of friends in law enforcement (NYPD & state Police). They tend to be best cops around, one of them is being sent to be a trainer so he can get some bigger promotions.

You got to ask yourself and maybe them if they are a good person. All cops are bad because of what the system does to them. But who they are in spite of what that system is doing says more about who they are as a person.

Chances are they'll have edgy jokes, but you've been on the Internet long enough to end up here, so I'm sure you can navigate that.

Remember conservatives hate liberal arts colleges because people who are exposed to diversity are more tolerant of it.

Assuming it's the US

• set up a fund to provide free school lunches until the government provides them
• give grants for people to set up housing co-ops
• hire my own army of Russian trolls (they do not need to be Russian, I am inclusive to all trolls) to fracture conservative unity/support progressive
• buy up some social media companies. (YouTube would be best, but I don't the 300 billion is enough) make the algorithm progressive
• whatever is left over goes to renewables and conservation efforts

A dovetail is a type of joint that doesn't require fasteners and only uses the material (usually glue for wood).

There was a lot more I missed when I switched, can't think of anything now. I was going to joke that I miss being 19. But eh, I'm doing better now than I was then.

It's really annoying actually. Sometimes you're asking something completely benign, and it's likes sorry I'm an AI and I can't do anything.

Example: I asked it what a commonplace book was. Apparently language models don't have the capacity to help with that!

I think they're implying that legitimate things are immediate, sad, and personal. But I think all of these options are legitimate reasons to cry.

What's an illegitimate reason? To manipulate someone

City folks are definitely a thing, and suburban folks ain't much different. The US is big and has a lot of rural communities. Even the most populated states (California, Texas, New York) all have large areas of agriculture or otherwise sparse population

safety meeting over here

I know a few trans or nonbinary folks. They either go by he, she, or they. I have yet to meet someone who doesn't. Then again I live in a weird progressive rural community.

But if someone asks me to refer to them a particular way, sure what not? It means more to them than it means to me.

I wonder if they thought picking Big E to represent trump was ironic or not. Because the emperor made a bunch of mistakes that made everything a whole lot worse for a whole bunch of people. Like this is dystopian fiction we're talking about.

The orks are good, but only from their moral lens. Fighting=good, green=good, gits=bad, krumping gits=good. The only reason we think of them is good is because there's a lot of information on orc psychology, whereas we see the other races as more or less human instead of the aliens that they are.

Fuck i should help make the Warhammer communities here more active

Red flag. Bad opsec. I wouldn't trust someone who trusts me.

The point of social media is to interact with other people, asking questions is a good way to do that. I asked you because you sounded like you knew what you were talking about. I did Google it and there is no good evidence that it causes cancer. But they think it might increase risk. It's very hard to study that.

Not once did I mention eating meat. I was a vegetarian for 20 years, I eat meat very occasionally nowadays.

How much does charred food actually increase risk of cancer? And what type of cancer?

For some reason smokey slightly burnt food tastes really good to me and I'm not going to stop eating it.

This will have impacts, I just don't think it'll be as bad as everyone is thinking. Corporate Japan can be equally hands on and hands off. Fromsoft may be allowed to keep on chugging because they make money.

Undiagnosed gang represent

Sabayon Linux. I'm not sure if it's still releasing updates, the main website is dead. It was based on Gentoo and later funtoo, but had a package manager of precompiled binaries. You could still use emerge if you wanted to. Definitely a weird and interesting distro

Blend OS is trying to do the declarative nixos thing but with an arch base. That's pretty cool.

ClearOS was Intel's attempt at an immutable os. From what I remember it was really fast.

Edit: actually it clear Linux not clearOS. Edit: also clear Linux is stateless. I don't know, there's a lot about it I don't understand

Like king Leopold congo? Like where soldiers would only get more bullets if they could prove that the bullet they used killed a person?

I've heard it called a luxury issue by some. As in an issue that privileged people take up because they already have the privilege of safety and order.

I mean yeah cops disproportionately target certain groups of people. Their training sucks and has the added bonus of making them trigger happy schizos who see crime and offence where it doesn't exist. But also I think it's pretty obvious that there needs to be some sort of law enforcement/peace keeping group.

Police reform? I can get behind that. Abolishing police? Sounds kinda dumb.

Yeah right now I weigh 170, I'm in pretty good shape (would be in better shape if I didn't injure my foot and could start running again). But for me 180 is overweight? Even if that's just fat that means my muscles become less visible. Hell it feels like my thighs are bigger now after getting in shape that when I was 180. And I started to look really skinny when I got down to 165.

I'm sure people would keep calling me skinny at 180. What we need are easier ways to measure body fat percentage. Because it is true that holding onto lots of fat for a long time is what's bad for you.

The easiest way to check on body fat percentage right now is just to take weekly pictures of yourself in your underwear. You can see the muscle vs fat pretty well.
