I am not sure if the Nazis did but I read the Allied forces tried to conceal the fact that they invented radars by making up a saying that carrots improve your eye sight and that is how they were able to spot the German planes so far away. I am about 90%-ish sure of this fact

It’s still amazing how Ukraine was able to adapt in what I think most of the world thought would be a devastating loss and fought like hell, real David vs Goliath. May Ukraine never lose

Fuck I am so numb to these numbers, only noticed it due to being nice and round. Which is sad, but keep pumping those numbers Ukraine

Sounds like California gave these billionaires financial incentive to leave.

Maybe that will solve the high cost of living issues there

Not defending Israel, just this was about Hamas and the mayor saying he does not support them. I give you my reasoning why I agree with his view. I like how you attack me, the messenger, as if you know anything about me. But this isn’t about me, probably my mistake to try and find comparisons from my own life, but I know better now.

I really do hope the Palestinian people get to have peace and prosper, really hope they can have like what we in SA did and live in harmony together. Thank fuck we had Mandela and de Klerk that was able to negotiate peace and lead us to a constitutional democracy.

But I will not support Hamas personally, nor Netenyau’s government, hopefully both sides(Palestine and Israel) can get leaders such as ours that can work together. I really hope for everyone there they find a way to live together.

Otherwise this is my last comment on this thread, not gonna waste more of my time, I do not want to change your opinion nor would I want you to change your opinion, we both can have our own valid opinions. So cheers and my not a drop of blood be further spilled on either side

Hamas cannot conduct October the 7th and then wash their hands and say some of the chaos and killing was not our doing, it was others, lets make a boogeyman called Israel spies yes that is who, Hamas peacefully entered Israel on Oct 7, how baby got into Gaza and subsequently died was nothing to do with Hamas, it was those Israeli spies

Glad we could justify the killing of a “baby” because America has killed more, at least 20. Nazi’s also killed a couple of Jewish babies, what is just one more, it’s not like Hamas target this specific baby, kidnapped the baby, refused to hand it back if it was really an error, not keep the baby as a hostage until the baby finally died of “natural death”.

People it was a single baby, please support Hamas because not supporting them, even if the justifiably killed one baby (and not 20 if it was the USA), is basically not supporting Palestine and its people whom these acts of Hamas, like killing one tiny baby, are done in the Palestinian people’s name.

This is a false dichotomy, of course you can be pro Palestinian but also reject an organisation that has committed horrendous crimes like Hamas. Hamas may justify their crimes as resistance but does killing babies and other civilians really constitute resistance or terrorism.

My own government, the ANC resisted apartheid by targeting infrastructure not civilians, they targeted the Apartment regime not white people, why the world supported the South African struggle and Nelson Mandela’s ANC.

Once bought a left handed scissor, did not know up until then there was such a thing, as a right handed how the fuck do you cut stuff, it was the crappiest cut ever

In real life, I would have loved dogs tearing up Pavlov after reading what he actually did

Maybe, but if it was a movie who would you cheer for, the massively overpowered enterprise just blowing up a space minivan or the David vs Goliath battle where two friends with a crossbow takes on a US Space ship and triumphantly makes the impossible possible

Not an American, so may be wrong, but isn’t this the subsidies for households earning a couple of times higher than the poverty line. What household income level will this affect. Is this a tax break falling away or a subsidy?

Yeah I will believe this when I see this available for my 3D Printer. There really is a community need for actual biodegradable filament

The trick I use is to look at the allergens.

Yeah not sure what Ukraine is doing there, clearly a troll. But not even the Soviet Union, China, US, UK all the other does not excuse them from their atrocities. They are all bad, it does not matter if a Communist or a Capitalist is oppressing you, oppression is oppression. Trying to excuse your oppression by referring to the other side does it too is not a valid argument. People deserve freedom not subjugation

I am not too clued up to say this or that, but Mental Outlaw on YouTube has been doing very good breakdown on loads of Linux stuff to noobs.

So I will link to this, https://youtu.be/3MwJbRq3-rM

I saw no one mention ZorinOS.

I personally love Mint, tried different distros but I keep crawling back to green Ubuntu

Living in South Africa, I had to reluctantly get a gun, hate it but after they shot my neighbours leg off through her daughter’s window I knew I had no choice because I had 3 other women living with me.

I will call it a successful gun ownership if I never have to use it, I really do not wish to be placed in that situation.

Having seen people be killed by firearms in front of me, the police’s apathy as they were giggling at me when they saw my red eyes and saying it’s what rural poor people do (I think it was their way of comforting me).

Some gun owners are reluctant owners, but really when you have as high a violent crime and murder rate as we do, you have to make a difficult choice.

One of the very few businesses excluded from the municipal licence exemption.

Cannot start a watering hole without the municipality’s blessings (some money needs to grease the wheels).

But basically led to a lot of underground drinking spots. They were a godsend during COVID lockdowns, any sale of alcohol was prohibited, there was some guy that was killed by the military when they found him drinking a beer in his own yard (which technically was legal).

But yeah some stupid alcohol rules here in SA, not all for example drinking and driving, but most

Oh, thank you. Luckily I grow my onions in motorcycle tyres and not car tires (which I now found out is the major contributor), which gives the onions a more unique and bituminous taste.

I feel like Cadillac is the fun team to cheer next year
