Yep, the majority of these deaths were pre-trial, not convicted, presumably innocent people. What does it mean to be innocent until proven guilty if they murder you in jail?

I have never understood this attitude in the open source community. You’ll mouth off all day about how profit is bad, but so many projects can only survive with the backing of invested companies. You’re chasing the perfect at the expense of the good. Would Wine even exist today without CrossOver? I think no.

Even that is too strong, imo. The vast majority of empathy lacking conservatives are themselves dirt poor, and on the plate of another.

But it still hurts to think about how bad others might have it, especially when you’re so beat down by life that you are barely making it by yourself, so they buy into an easier answer, “the other”.

I hope empathy has a place in this conversation too!

Or possibly just more drugs

Not the kind of sex I want to have ;)

Hey! I’m not 50 yet!

Oh ok so you never had a point that you were capable of defending, lost the plot a couple posts ago, and have now decided that it’s everyone else’s fault.

Welcome to the internet! First time?

Well, only if you want a mortgage lol.

Ok but that’s not some universally recognized term, and is more ambiguous than what you objected to. Try again?

OK smart guy, which word would have been better?

No, it’s higher than a full squat, and you aren’t really leaning on anything. If you want to be super fucking pedantic you could call it a half stand I guess, but the point is your butt is off the seat.

There’s no good word for that position, and you’re doing your best to point out perceived flaws in wording rather than trying to understand.

And then the tariffs go away and boom! Rug pull!

Dude says he’s seeding ISO files right in the OP. If you can’t be bothered to read it, then you’ll say things that make you look stupid. That’s why I read posts before I respond to them!

Some banks, like HSBC, will allow you to hold foreign currency accounts. There are also things like Wise, but I haven’t looked much in to it.

I don’t see the point of holding EUR though as you can’t spend them here. You’d be better off investing in a currency ETF, or just international stocks/funds if your goal is to diversify from the US.

That was good, thank you!

I read an interesting book based on this premise called The Forever War, it’s been awhile but it was pretty good!

Similar premise but with soldiers sent to fight a war and eventually finding it already over.

It brings fear, it’s terrorism plain and simple. The goal is to demoralize the enemy population in general, not to gain any tactical advantage.
