When Kissinger went to Hell I shared a bottle of Samsong Whiskey (Rum) with a friend I worked in Asia with. It was nice to have something local. We celebrated his first anniversary in a similar manner.

It is what it means to you that’s important though.

Maybe Mark Lee and Jan Davis on STS-47 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STS-47

I am not disagreeing about the drugs. My point was their legality. If I am sworn to uphold a set a laws and I do not, then I am a hypocrite. If I swear to abide by a code of ethics and I do not, then I am a hypocrite.

I believe that drugs should be legal and health care should be free.

I also believe that Matt Gaetz is a rapist piece of shit.

I wouldn’t care about the drug use either except that 1) it’s illegal 2) it’s an ethics violation 3) he was going to be attorney general.

If Rapey McHairdo had a (D) after their name they would be in jail

I’m sure their privacy policy will heavily favor the students personal rights and that their backend database will be hackproof…

It keeps forever in the freezer. It’s great for tortillas and pie crust too. I’d take it all.

It’s probably because you are the only person to ban me from a sub, on Lemmy, Reddit, anywhere, and you banned me from 7 different subs I had never even posted in. Then you never replied to my questions about why I was banned. Yepowertrippinbastard.

Just sayin’

I use my tablet for site surveys and leave my phone at home or work. It is light to carry, has great battery life, has a sim card, memory slot, headphone jack. When I’m done work I can watch a film. It’s some shitty Samsung thing work gave me, it’s great. I don’t think I would ever buy a tablet myself though.

I do not have a use for a smart watch.

Thank you for posting the translation.

I was referring to this part, which it think is great.

_The text of the statement, made in front of the Autonomous Administration building in Raqqa, was read in Arabic and Kurdish. _

I meant no offense at all. Thank you for answering.

Your translation said that the announcement was made in Arabic and Kurdish. I found that very interesting and heartening since the Kurds have been marginalized for so long.

Can I ask you questions?

I can’t remember, I actually only use metric now. I think you need to convert asteroids to hogheads first, if they’re tobacco that’s 1000 lbs per hogshead. Frankly it makes my head hurt.

As an American I have no idea why we don’t use metric.

At least they didn’t use metric.

Indeed, quite interesting. I read the OP article and remembered that initially there was more information, it made me think something had changed behind the scenes.

Or just by a Russian captain on a Chinese ship. This is an earlier article later ones omit this. A few different sources say the captain is Russian, but none of the ones in the news today mentioned it. The only information given is that the ship itself is Chinese.

with the evidence so far pointing to a Chinese merchant vessel with a Russian captain.

That archive site gives me a notice of a captcha, but it never completes. This is on mobile.

Well now that you have resorted to ad hominem I certainly believe you are correct.

Anyway, I will wait for the accident report and then your apology.

It didn’t come off the factory floor a month ago.

If I crash my 31 year old Toyota are you to say “well, it was a Toyota”. Or are you going to think driver error, poor conditions, maintenance issue?

It’s 31 years old, being a Boeing has nothing to do with it.

That’s some kind of communist talk. In the Land of the Free you are your own man. No nanny state telling you what to do. You have options. You can be rich, you can put all your money into a scam bank, which is de facto sanctioned, (and die when they do a rug pull because you no longer have money for life saving, much less preventative care), or you can die. But this was your choice, and you can have a huge truck (N.B. the bank actually owns the truck, but in 5 years you’ll have it paid off).

In reality I left the US years ago and don’t miss it, I do fear for friends though.
