Read the instructions, but also sometimes windows defender or whatever helpfully deletes suspicious files that you need.

Unrelated program, but cracking solidworks required removing every trace of the student copy I had installed (well, registries and program files at least)

I've had quite a few people say I've been brainwashed by Chinese or soviet propaganda, a thing I do not encounter often, and then slowly explain the most bog standard white Australian nationalist narrative to me. I wish I was better at confrontational social situations

Sure, that is their MO though

My first thought was the They Live aliens

I wish I had more time :(

Rocks are dialectical when they bash against one another, just as I bash my head against every other leftist.

I think like... Rocks aren't political, until communities of humans arrive and start talking about rocks and using language to describe rocks. A rock that humans have never interacted with isn't political, until people start using it as an example of what is and isn't political. Sort of like quantum but for concepts and relationships being perceived by communities of people.

Why did I write this?

I hop on to TOR, but it's pretty much the only thing I go onto TOR for. I got some soviet industrial manuals

Does this box with a sliver of bicycle handlebar count as containing a bicycle?

If I was walking in a desert and saw a tortoise on its back, struggling to get up, and I was not helping it

War isn't political, obviously

Oh, where's that option in VLC? (I'd probably skip if given the choice, I remember wanting to constantly with game of thrones but whoever I was with insisted on watching the entire 5 hours every time)

Yeah, I think that's how it works

I notice it but don't care. Also, is wifi "wire fidelity"? I notice and care when my wifi is crap

Posting this in response to every claim of Havana Syndrome

The text at the bottom suggests that you can also use the trees planting year to determine its age. Which is also true

I feel like people like remembering shenanigans or getting one over a shitty GM, but actually playing it was a slog especially with experienced power gamers at the same as new players. Also apparently enjoy arguing semantics to "win". Bleh

I feel like you're talking about multiple things that are only loosely related, some of which could be called honour. It's varied enough that I wouldn't call it self-explanatory.

Certainly, I could see someone defining honour as, at some point, the respect of military peers. This still exists with honourable or dishonourable discharge, but reaching back in time one could imagine an honourable knight treating his peasants poorly (and certainly less well than how he treats other knights), to say nothing of women specifically.

Likewise, Japanese culture is said to be an "honour culture" but it could be said to be a particular form of Japanese Machismo that has evolved from the Japanese martial classes (an elite) to the modern proletarian salaryman.

But in common modern usage, I see enough "honourable klingon" memes that use honour as a sort of earnestness and respect amongst everyone.

Not saying any of interpretations are correct (or wholly wrong), just that there's enough of them that are plausible that saying any of them is self-explanatory is a bit of a reach.

Erm, I'm a bit high

I assumed it was Albania or something
