7. Choosing the distro most aligned with Juche ideology - Red Star OS

My question is if it wasn’t required before and is required now, what changed? It’s not like Google has added a killer feature recently - this is almost certainly related to those shitty AI answers that are forcing your actual search results even further down the page than they were already.

Unless the police are an entirely independent organization, they can still receive orders from the top directing them to seek out fines even if they’re not the ones who directly benefit.

money goes to the government

cops get their money from the government

As far as swords go, the gladius is still the goat.

If you’re buying $1000 worth of lumber $50 to ensure it gets home undamaged (and without damaging your car) is cheap. I’m pretty sure you can also elect to cut the boards in half to better fit them in a smaller vehicle.

The Palworld suit is not an IP suit because whether or not Palworld was “cribbing” from Pokemon they were well within the bounds of the law. They don’t even have to claim parody - their designs are their designs, despite the clear inspiration.

The lawsuit is over software patents, most likely the patents that Nintendo has for throwing a ball in a virtual space to capture a creature and riding on a virtual creature, aka absolute specious bullshit.

Slaves built pyramids

Skilled craftsmen built the pyramids, slaves were mostly relegated to less prestigious work like farming.

That’s cool now could you tell your lawyers to go in a different direction with respect to mods and fan games?

I don’t have a washing machine so I end up using an overpriced laundromat (or visiting my parents lmao), but ever since I saw a tiktok of a tiny Japanese machine that was both a washer and a dryer one of those been at the top of my wish list. I don’t even care if it can only wash one or two sets of clothes at a time, that’s all I need.

ad revenue and shady services

So as long as there is money to be made?

Fair

Shady shit happens specifically because there is money to be made. If everyone around the world stopped paying for porn, full stop, then the only porn that would be made would be passion projects from artists who want to create for the sake of it.

Hezbollah isn’t just a military organization. It’s a political party. The majority of those pagers were in civilian hands when they detonated.

If your country has been under siege for fifteen years and is currently being invaded, I’d say you’re allowed to put booby traps in the places the invaders are likely to go.

kill individual fighters

They killed like 1 fighter in exchange for wounding a thousand civilians, including at least one little girl who died. The pager shit is every bit as indiscriminate as the bombing.

This is true, but it’s not like Bethesda’s past few games inspire a lot of confidence.

Saw similarly strange pizzas when I lived in Japan. I think in Asia generally they just have a different idea of what to do with pizza.

Same here. I’ll drink whatever’s on tap but I don’t like Pepsi as much cuz it’s too sweet.

There are so many regional differences even if the recipe is 99% the same. Denatured coca leaves aren’t a thing outside the Americas, different bottling plants will use different types of sugar, water of differing quality will affect the taste, etc etc.
