Are we calling Luigi a murderer but not the healthcare CEO, who killed thousands of people for money and would otherwise have gotten away with it scott-free?
Or are we just expected to "trust the process", where republicans prosecuted a man for failing to pay taxes after he backpaid because he was the president's son and they were desperate for dirt on him? The one where the SCOTUS declared that the president was immune from prosecution for "official acts", and testimony on the president's motivation for those acts was not permissible evidence (so Trump could have SEAL team 6 unload a machine gun into the senate while yelling "I AM CORRUPTLY SEIZING POWER" and be unable to be sued for it)? (See, killing senators is legally okay because the senators can impeach him after he shoots them all dead)
Despite what mainstream media pretends, Martin Luther King would not have succeeded without Malcolm X in the background, showing what would happen if the system just refused to ever give an inch. Gandhi succeeded in his protests because Indian citizens outnumbered Britain 10 to 1 and everyone knew it, and they knew if Gandhi were stonewalled forever then the revolutionaries would turn India into the UK's Vietnam at best.
Linux is not on mobile. And before anyone says "Android/LineageOS is Linux", 1) Android is proprietary (and AOSP is not a real substitute for Android), and 2) LineageOS isn't a substitute for Android without microg, and also isn't Linux (last I checked, app development on LineageOS REQUIRED ANDROID STUDIO for the signing bullshit).
Now, if anyone says "Linux is on mobile, I daily-drive my PinePhone!" (and is actually being honest), then congratulations and I respect the hell out of you but you're more of a masochist than Drew Devault and that makes you a unicorn.
If you take venture capital, you sacrifice your ability to not be greedy. Could Facebook have even existed without VC? Facebook didn't have ads during its startup IIRC, which meant they had no revenue.
Valve was the first, their business model was basically removing retail (the actual reason for Steam was to make updates trivial, so a Counterstrike update didn't break half the servers for 2 weeks), for everyone after Steam the business model was removing Steam by replacing it with a Steam clone.
Ukraine has had a "no mercenaries" policy IIRC, if NK troops are seen as mercenaries then maybe it'll legitimize Ukraine shopping for manpower.
Yes I'd like to request we add slrpnk.net's UI to sh.itjust.works
https://www.andrewalexanderprice.com/blog20131204.php is another good post about building better for fun and profit.
Isn't that the same link I posted? Do you mean https://www.andrewalexanderprice.com/blog20130330.php ?
I hate how /e/OS's 'BlissLauncher' doesn't let you leave an empty space between icons on the homescreen. I don't know whether switching to a different launcher will break /e/OS's widgets etc, and it bugs me just little enough to ignore it. The worst thing is that because you can't leave gaps (unless you leave the bottom row partially blank, which is dumb because that's the most important row), moving any app requires swapping it with another, which requires a minimum of three app-drags. In practice four, because draggin one app onto another will turn the icon into a folder with the two apps in them, so you'll have to open the folder and drag em both out.
I hate it so much. Why can't they just make a normal homescreen?
What if they switched to shooting sand? Raining sand isn't too deadly, it's not dense enough right? And if it's not lethal enough to the drones, then they can just up the caliber to shoot more sand.
There's an argument that if the fine is 'too high', then it causes wonky behavior towards liability - facing a $100M fine, Organisations have a massive incentive to deny any knowledge of it and be unwilling to take preventative measures. To be fair, I'm talking about city councils here, who (at least notionally) already have a motivation to treat their locals well. It might not translate well to corporations.
I'm not saying fines should be capped, I'm saying it's a tradeoff that is sometimes not worth it.
Okay then, how does Hungry Jacks fit into that chain of logic?
How much obsolete tech does the WW2 infantry have, is the question - e.g. if it's US troops then they'll have Garands, which are only obsolescent, and they only need to stall until the modern air force can come help.
...actually, no. The modern air force could split up, put 10%ish of its forces into ROFLstomping the WW2 air force and the other 90% into supporting the WW2 infantry. So the WW2 infantry will always have air support from the moment the war starts. If the air force can obliterate a few platoons of modern infantry, then the WW2 infantry can scavenge some of their equipment and level the playing field a bit.
What exactly does "take a city" mean? If you're not too squeamish then you'll find you don't need infantry, just a few MIRVs.
Aren't those planes brought up to the air by actual planes? If modern planes have air dominance, then those plywood planes had better have a functioning plywood engine because there won't be anything else to get them skybound.
Drones are army, they're just a fancy grenade/pair of binoculars, when you think about it. Or maybe a missile.
If the modern air force can take out some modern ground troops, the ww2 ground troops could loot their corpses to be somewhat modern-ish ground troops. The modern air force could use radio to explain how to use the equipment, if they have access to wikipedia.
WW2 forces will get obliterated at nighttime, no night vision. Assuming modern ground forces are still alive by nighttime, that is.
