So, is Israel going to stop bombing Lebanon?

For real, though, Rip Graham Greene.

If they can win this, I’ll go back to using Aptoide.

Can F-Droid get in on this too? Like, yes maybe Aptoide isn’t the best ally to have on a good day. But right now there’s a bigger enemy.

I don’t see it as a heist. it’s just an excellent counterfeiting operation.

I don’t care about the minimum. I care about the maximum earnings allowed annually.

Yes, he and others have been encouraging emigration from the USA, same as Ireland, Poland, other nations suggested it a century ago.

To most people, “Real American” doesn’t mean the working man. It means the capitalist behind him.

I don’t entirely disagree. But the thing about tradition is, it’s done the same way every time. I’m more likely to trust the person who has done a thing their whole life and learned from their parents rather than someone who started last week.

But I’d prefer either of them over mass-produced versions.

That tells me there was something wrong with the rosé, honestly.

Not the person you’re replying to, but for me, a burger that’s actually got depth to it and seared properly holds the flavor better than something that’s been crushed and nearly burned.

Only if it’s long-term. The majority of people have introverted phases. We deserve our alone time.

Finally doing what they should have done day one.

The only way to make the capitalists actually expend resources is to make it painful for them not to do so. If they’re taxed highly on gross income and capital gains, they’re more likely to either donate that money (as with the Astors, Roosevelts, Rockefellers, and others), or to expend significant resources to enrich themselves further. The problem is that we need to ensure that the capital class and the politicians are not a single group (which is how this all went bad), and to make sure that political “donations” (bribes) are actually policed.

Of course, that would also mean we’d need to police against monopolies too, and be aggressive about ensuring that companies stay within their charter and remove their license to do business if they exceed it…

When we had leaders who understood and valued soft power, sure. But that isn’t the way the USA is operating at this moment. Those other nations aren’t in the condition they’re in because of their nukes, it’s because it’s more profitable to keep things as they are.

And the moment they have a nuke and show it off, all hell will break loose. So unless they pull back from Hormuz and cede it either to a US-led coalition or somehow draw the USA into a land war, it will happen again and it will happen again soon.

So they started as heroes and they’re still cool.

Maybe the Principality of Sealand.

He’s Jewish. Or at least Jew-ish. This is normal behavior and belief.

No, ternary exists. We could have built computers with triodes.

Courting controversy gets attention, yes. Think about GTA.
