How much money does he have? Confusing how he’s getting any women at all

I remember seeing some of this stuff when it came out and thinking “why are they doing this?” A bunch of it I never heard of, and a handful I wish had seen success (Firefox OS). Not sure how this counts as a hit piece, it didn’t seem mean spirited and definitely didn’t seem to be misrepresenting anything.

The “her back” thing I think is a typo. Unless I misheard I think the embedded video also includes a reporter recapping and saying “he’s got her on her back” too, so maybe the write up is carrying over that reporter misspeaking.

Late one evening a boy and his father were accosted by a mugger. The traumatic moment unlocked some kind of latent power within the boy. Frantically he tried to intervene, skin touched skin, and the assailant’s blood turned to wine, fatal. But not before the cretin dealt a terminal blow to the father. And that night that boy became the hero we all know, Jesus Christ.

Idiots

If you run your own server (like a country would in this case) you’re the one deciding whether things are allowed to be posted. Of course that doesn’t stop other people from blocking you. But the whole idea is as a sovereign country a private corporation shouldn’t have a say over which posts are seen.

I’ve seen a few people shit talk discord without expanding, so I will: it’s a proprietary “public space” that’s not web searchable. I don’t mind something like a community/subreddit oriented around a physical place, but I try to avoid supporting spaces that are owned by private capital. Of course that’s nearly impossible, but there are degrees of enclosure.

Good point you and others make about airtightness.

For the manufacturing, I’m primarily thinking about how assisted suicide is illegal in most countries, so the ability for anyone to make it, and to make something small, may have some value versus a large, hard to transport device.

I hear you expressing a lot of pain and frustration with the way society treats people who are elderly or disabled. And you’re right, the first answer shouldn’t be “kill yourself”. While your comment briefly mentioned the right to die, you called this method as ableist, which I think is probably an extension of that frustration rather than factual. Reading the article it seemed to me this organization is very much interested in people’s well being and reducing their suffering in a holistic way.

I think this is valuable work. I like that the operator can choose a setting and see nature when they go. That said, is there a reason this couldn’t be a mask instead of a chamber? Seems like that sort of separation from location is undesirable, plus it would be much simpler to manufacture.

You’re right that there’s too much unnecessary suffering imposed by our societal system. Still, consider that everyone’s life eventually ends, and for many when that time comes it would be a blessing to choose it on their own terms.

I remember watching them and the conversation about them. But that’s different than proof and admission that sentient alien life exists. It’s one thing to suspect while also having other possible explanations (could be secret tech that we or adversary nations developed, could be sensor errors or optical illusions) and another for the president to be like “I want you to meet ambassador Xlurg”

I’m with you. Yes, people acclimate to all kinds of things, but sentient aliens are going to take more than a few days.

Exciting/inspiring story, thanks for sharing!

But I don’t want my devices to be bombs

I appreciate that this seems to be an actually informed opinion of international law, rather than random internet commenters asserting it is or isn’t a crime.

Right he makes himself more important by attaching himself to powerful people.

I wouldn’t be surprised if there were something about different types of wigs that make them hotter than just having natural hair. That said, I’m not sure we have people with subject matter experience in the thread here.

Like this thread over at the wigs subreddit is already talking about terms I’m not familiar with, so that seems like a promising place to start.

I’m on lemmy because I disagree with the ownership direction at Reddit but they have an enviable user base in terms of size and diversity.

From what I understand, the first assassination it wasn’t clear the shooter particularly hated Trump. Sounded more like a school shooter. If anyone has seen reporting otherwise I’d be interested to read it.

Often in a news article when someone is described as dying “suddenly” without any other explanation it’s understood to be a euphemism for suicide.
