  • Much lower and you shouldn't care. As long as you're serving less than one request per second, you will not need to care about performance. If you do, sanic and vibora are drop-in flask replacements and they are both much more performant.

  • I always love Flask for this, it's a super simple python web server that is basically fully batteries included, just write a couple lines of python and throw your html in either /static or /templates, depending on whether it's dynamic or not, and you're live. It's not gonna move mountains but it's not meant to.

  • If you make perfectly good products and then order them trashed when a single human being must go without food, let alone a birken bag, you go to jail. Ez.

  • A huge deal of China's emissions come from it being the workshop of the world, yes. So in a way, a big quantity of China's emissions are western goods to be used and sold in western countries that western companies profit off of, who's production emissions get chalked up to China.

  • Hi! I'm a dirty communist from a dirty communist instance. Consider that these things aren't circlejerks, consider instead that generally we have the opinions that we do for a reason and when we discuss things, it might be a good faith discussion but your guard may (possibly for warranted reasons) be up. Please grant us the faith that it's not a circlejerk. I'm also open to answering any questions that might alleviate your (or anyone else reading's) notions that we are a circlejerk.

  • Money flowing out in the two routes you mentioned is peanuts compared to the money flowing in: finished goods being purchased in bulk at a lower price and then being sold at a higher price. Or alternately for foreign owned businesses, goods being manufactured remotely for very cheap, where Australian corporations can employ near-slave labor and ignore environmental regulations and then said goods are brought home and sold very expensively relative to their production costs. In both cases, the owners of the corporation are able to take a large slice of the finished value of the goods despite them being made by others elsewhere.

  • Yes I can, if the US loses its power to treat the rest of the world like this, things will improve and also the atrocities of its past will remain relevant.

  • "You can't point out any problems unless you have a solution to them" is such a tired thought terminating cliché. I have plenty of ideas about solutions, but my contribution here is meaningful without me having to go to all of the trouble of explaining them all.

  • At what date do you think the United States just stopped doing all that evil bad stuff and got its act together?

  • Many of these things are still ongoing today, and many more (possibly all?) have never been apologized for or have even been denied. Why are you calling that the past?

    If you stick a knife in my back nine inches and pull it out six inches, there's no progress. If you pull it all the way out that's not progress. Progress is healing the wound that the blow made. And they haven't even pulled the knife out much less heal the wound.

    • Malcolm X
  • Isn't that a little bit charitable for the country that blackbagged and drugged criminal and non-criminal civilians with LSD, deliberately circulated drugs both inside and outside our own borders, taught animals with bombs strapped to them to seek out rival personnel and infrastructure, infiltrated and assassinated members of social justice movements, deliberately exported indiscriminate murder to countries that looked like they might be starting to think about not being the right kind of democratic, used guns to back corporations quashing striking workers, poisoned the earth in Vietnam with agent orange, and far, far more, all in violation of our own Democratic process, the trust of our people, or the nations we interact with?

  • If the US actually cared about Ukraine, we wouldn't send cluster munitions. We have deliberately used these things to make farmland and schools into minefields for decades, we know exactly the harm they cause. Ukraine is fighting this war on their home turf, their home turf is where the cluster munitions will remain undetonated until some child steps on them.

    The US wants to see the Russians slaughtered. The PR line is that we want to defend Ukraine, but using cluster munitions is not a thing you do somewhere you're trying to defend. We're perfectly happy to have a bunch of Ukrainians slaughtered if it means we can take down some Russians too.

  • One in six fails to detonate in a cluster munition that has around a hundred grenades? Holy fuck that's fifteen unexploded grenades on a former battlefield every time they fire the weapon, I was previously against cluster munitions and I was just assuming it was like a 1% failure rate.

  • mfs say shit like this and then live their lives not questioning why they spend hours a day stuck in traffic, why their job treats them like shit, and why they're so lonely all the time

  • I don't know, but any amout of nukes that is enough to disrupt a hurricane is way the fuck worse than the hurricane would have been on its own

  • glad to see this post getting absolutely dunked like it should

  • It's probably just the orcas playing piñata

  • I live my life as if I have unlimited free will, and I view the world as if everyone else is fully determined by their circumstances. And then I just ignore the contradiction. Ez pz

  • "characters who are petite/young-looking but not obviously underage"

    yeah of course they're not gonna come out and say "yeah we want to host and share drawn CSAM" and they're going to be weasely and sneaky about it, do you really plan to take pedophiles and pedophile enablers at the honor of their word here

  • Jews were able to make the world remember [the Holocaust], and the whole world bows to them, being afraid of saying one wrong word to them

    ~ Alexander Lukashenko

    The history of Germany is a copy of the history of Belarus. Germany was raised from ruins thanks to firm authority and not everything connected with that well-known figure Hitler was bad. German order evolved over the centuries and attained its peak under Hitler. This corresponds with our understanding of a presidential republic and the role of a president in it

    ~ Also Alexander Lukashenko

    Doesn't really have anything to do with his policies, just make sure you factor in that he's a raging antisemite if you're deciding whether he's "based" or not
