but the us only left Afganistan two years ago

for the leaked part yes. But the license can be whatever, even proprietary, if the source is disclosed it is open-source

i need this in my bathroom

This shape seems exceptionally suitable for matching continuous decoration patterns (e.g. knotwork) across tile edges and half edges.

You genuinely don’t know the correct answer to such a facile dilemma?

What about an even simpler one?

Your house is burning down. You can either save your infant child, or your Nintendo Switch, but not both. Which do you choose?

Do you genuinely believe there’s not an obviously correct answer to the above?

it is an obvious answer that a child is more valuable, but we have been told literally just that our whole lives, that children are the most valuable and important.

Cultures have existed (might still exist today) where an expensive property values more than a child.

i always do it with my refrigerator

I don't think the spores that you are cultivating in your fridge would necessarily qualify as native plant species. that's more of a science experiment

More like biological weapon in the making

it could be the next penicillin type of discovery. at least that's how I justify the state my fridge has been in a couple of times in my youth

my laptop is plugged into a docking station at home as well as in the office. i only ever use it bare while in meetings, or travelling. So definitely no need for a mac in my case

curiously, in Russia, Caucasians is the collective term for the nations of the Caucasus, and it is often used to express Chauvinist opinions about them. Russians are usually confused when they are referred to as "Caucasian" in american paperwork

People have downvoted me for saying the same thing. Perhaps they were offended by the term "US Americans"? It is a standard term used here in Germany and is not offensive.

The Romans knew what they were doing :)

Are you able to add a reference? I am curious about the mention of Romans. Thanks!

Decimate was how the romans culled a weak unit. They would kill 1 in 10.

Wow, you're right. It's a decimation to the T. Hmmmm.

There is also "Muskification" as seen at Twitter.

any idea how good the tooling mentioned there is? its the key to successfully applying this strategy, the best way would be to have it as a part of your blogging software/platform of choice and just working. because no one wants to do the monkey work of reposting everywhere

Not sure you need a lot of tooling unless you publish many articles per week. If you're just doing one article per month, linking them (not reposting, but sharing a link: "syndication") on 5-6 platforms would take you a couple of minutes at most.

Automated cross-posting is pretty well-trod territory.

depends on your physical location. and even if it's a rather unfortunate one you might get away with using tor or similar
