Anti-Face Weapon

This book has a chapter on this which is really good!

The whole book is pretty interesting, but that chapter especially is fantastic. A late draft of the book is available for free on that site, if this interests anyone, give it a read!

Things are changing, if slowly. People are paying attention, and they are pissed at Biden.

I’m afraid that in our current political system, voters would get a fresh choice of candidates who would probably still send weapons to Israel. Somehow we need deeper political change.

I guess he litterally sending both drones and bombs, but I meant that Trump would order a direct strike. But you’re right, that’s not much different in the end, is it? The main difference is that Biden maintains some plausible deniability. “WE didn’t kill anyone! We didn’t know they would use these tools for genocide!”. Maybe in some sense that IS worse.

Biden isn’t sending drones to bomb Palestine, to my knowledge. I’m saying that Trump would do that. If Trump were in power, it would probably be worse.

Not to excuse Biden, and his complete apathy for this ongoing genocide. It is unexcusable, and no one who tolerates genocide should be allowed anywhere near politics.

There are a lot of reasons to be suspicious about trump when it comes to colluding with foreign powers, and there is even some evidence. I agree that people often take it too far, into the conspiracy theory territory. But I don’t think it’s quite comparable with QAnon, either in feasibility, or in scope, or in the problematic effects that it may have.

Also, the American system is, at best, only semi-democratic. The politicians are the ones who determine who is in power, much more than the people who actually vote. Are the citizens really responsible for what politicians we have? Am I responsible, as a man who votes conscientiously, who has campaigned during important elections, and yet does not have any real influence in who gets elected? Is the average person, who is just barely getting by, really expected to change the system by themselves?

We need systemic change, but we have no class consciousness, and we are not likely to get there. These facts are manipulated by the people in power.

Trump would probably bomb the shit out of Palestine.

Honestly, most mid range phones are not built to last. When I spend hundreds of dollars on a phone, it needs to last for years and years.

Yeah. It’s stupid and crummy, but it’s a new key to bind. But then again, have you ever really used the context menu key? I have not.

The cost of the sugar is extremely minor compared to the price of bottling, transporting, and vending the tea.

No

That is so true. I never thought about that.

CMUS! I’m surprised more people aren’t using this. It’s very cool, ultra lightweight, and easy to use. Maybe I just like stuff that runs in the console.

They get 100% of the tip, it’s a legal requirement. The scummy part is the company does this to give you the opportunity NOT to tip, and therefore subsidize the food for shitty people.

Just in case, the few times I have ordered food, I put a dollar or two tip in the app, and add a note saying I’ll give them a cash tip. Usually I’ll give them a 2-4 Dollars more depending. If you’re using these services you need to tip, that’s how they make their livelyhood and feed their families.

It’s a scummy business, and you should definitely try to avoid using it unless it’s your only option for some reason. Your order will probably be at least $30, but do you know how much spaghetti you can make with $30??

Anyone know what those figures are on the front? Are they characters or do they depict an animal?

Dota 2. First time I played it it was not for me, I only played it to hang out with my friends. Many years later I had an itch for it, so I started playing again. And I haven’t stopped. It is an excellent game.
