That’s just how many middle managers the guy running the wood burning machine had to deal with that week.

The laws banning abortion and porn are directly based on the Christian ideology of these people. It may not be your version and they may be hypocrites, but it’s still theocracy.

The war on drugs is not a war, the war on terror is not a war. And both of those “campaigns” involved repression of concepts.

They may not have called it that but look into the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution. Both governments are bad. But the fact Chinese and us citizens are interacting face to face is a major positive.

Why?

It’s been the term for well over a decade. Which is when I learned about the term in college. First, second, and third world are western centric ways to talk about the alliances of Cold War countries. First world was the US, Western Europe and their allies. Second world was the communist countries, and third world was the rest of them.

Third World is a defunct term. The current nomenclature is “underdeveloped.”

Yes, but no PT.

Where is “here?”

Skyrim for the mods.

That is true for private locations, that is not true for public locations. Most places definition of public intox includes alcohol or any other drugs.

Whatever definition of “liberal democratic system” you are using is very narrow and not the norm. Marijuana is illegal in most of the world especially for non medical uses. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legality_of_cannabis

It may be legal in many places now, but it’s not legal to be intoxicated in public on any substance in most places. If you are going to do that have a sober person with you to monitor. Especially the first time.

Downvote me all you like, I’m trying to keep people out of jail. Cops can arrest you for just looking like you’re intoxicated and that can lead to a whole lot of bull shit. I was a public defender, I’ve seen it happen.

I believe so, but I never used it and didn’t read too much on it at the time. It was designed for the steam machine concept they were trying to push at the time. So it would be weird if it wasn’t.

Or as Rush put it, “If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.”

The law is basically this, it’s why nearly everyone hates the government.

Old steam os was an Ubuntu derived OS. Ubuntu has issues relating to the organization that runs it. New steam os is basically a coat of paint on top of Arch which is community based. The old os is deprecated.

The version on steam deck is fantastic, but they have been polishing it for desktop use for a while now. I can’t wait to have it available.

He isn’t some school shooter. He isn’t a crash out. He deliberately took steps to materially change the balance of power.
