It’s a bit flexible nowadays because a lot of cars will let you leave the a/c on while you walk away with the keys.

I won’t even post to Hexbear without rereading my post and editing spelling/grammar errors, how do people submit research papers that will effect their professional reputation without doing it?

Funny fact: google’s newest feature is also its best, but it’s kinda hidden and might not be available everywhere - it’s “web search”, which cuts out all the awful bullshit

that meddles in and disrupts the entire region

Are you talking about America? Because in every single instance Iran has been the stabilizing force, providing arms and training to local militias in order to defend themselves against America-backed threats including ISIS, the Saudis, and the IOF.

afaik castles have a recurring problem where rich people buy them saying “we’re going to restore this and keep it authentic” but then as soon as they find out the price of doing that they backtrack and usually end up not doing anything. But I would prefer doing nothing to doing this.

False Consciousness. Some people clearly see the problems with capitalism and blame the Jews, some immigrants (and many both), and some people really believe the things they were taught in econ 101 and wind up blaming the problems of capitalism on not enough capitalism.

I think libertarianism as we see it in the US is a uniquely American phenomenon (which occasionally gets exported abroad like in Argentina) that’s born out of our quasi-religious worship of the constitution and the founding fathers. Every US child is taught in school that the founders were all once in a generation geniuses and that the constitution is a masterwork of politics and not a badly outdated document that is only ever invoked by the ruling class to consolidate their own power. The founders believed that capitalist markets were a force for liberation, so we get taught that in high school - although ironically the modern version of that idea of a completely unfettered market is not at all what the American founders had in mind, it’s the extreme that you get to by following their logic.

Can I get some enterprising North Koreans to steal my identity so that I can put their work experience on my CV?

I lived in Japan when streaming was becoming a thing. Everything was region blocked, and DVDs were (and still are) horrendously overpriced for what you get.

I’m sure all of those programs are great, but in the modern world I can’t think of any reason why I wouldn’t ever just use VLC.

uhhhh today I had an adobada burrito and fries uhhhhh idk if I’m gonna eat anything else

We’re leftists and our site culture is pretty aggressive. Liberals are predisposed not to like us because of the first one, and we’re especially prone to arguing with them in the comments of their instances because of the second. This means we’re more well known and more disliked than we would be if we stayed in our corner.

Hopefully they restore the game in all regions where it was disabled. It went from being region free to blocked in 172 countries.

What is this map? “Most recently conquered by”? If so then England should have the Normans (1066), shouldn’t it?

this is the ending to Men in Black (and then they did it again for the ending to Men in Black II because that film was creatively bankrupt).

And the winner of the “right for the wrong reasons” award goes to…

It is 2026, and in a downbeat speech at the Kremlin, Vladimir Putin finally announces a withdrawal from Ukraine. Russian troops have done their best – or worst – but a fresh influx of well-trained Ukrainians have finally prevailed. The Donbas is now in Kyiv’s grip, Crimea’s fall only days away.

lol. lmao.

rather than heading straight to Bakhmut to scrap full-on with the Russians, the Euro-force would stay hundreds of miles back – most likely west of the River Dnipro, the waterway that that divides Ukraine in two.

We can win the war by not fighting it.

Their presence would, though, free up large numbers of Ukrainian troops to join the fray further east.

TO THE LAST UKRAINIAN!!

In the West’s Afghanistan campaign, for example, America, Britain and Canada bore the brunt of the 3,500 casualties, while most European participant nations lost 50 or less.

I see, I see, which side won that war again?

Holy shit this is like the most evil thing I’ve ever read. Not only does Ukraine not get the peace that they’ve needed for nine years now, but Europe is gonna literally stand behind them and drive every single able-bodied Ukrainian directly into the path of Russian artillery.

wow. Imagine burning out your expensive GPU for a fortnite skin.
