Naw broham. I don't post to/. while standing in the sun. When I wrote that I was sitting at an outdoor cafe, under shade, next to an artificial waterfall. Maybe fan maybe not - wasn't obvious. Still pretty comfortable, no AC needed.
But it does take a while to get used to high temperatures. You know you're half way there when you can (willingly) wear long sleeves and an undershirt in >90F.
It's 36C where I'm sitting right now. Most folks here think this is pretty comfortable. But I guess if the temp goes up one degree this afternoon we're all gonna die??
I saw in the news somewhere that CNN had replaced all their on-air reporters with animatronic puppets. So I turned on CNN and watched for a few minutes. It appears to be true!
Are you on crack? In the past, farmers were driven off their ancestral lands by state violence, to enrich the landlords. Today, unless you pay the landlords and bankers far more than any worker can afford, you too will be driven off a subsistence farm by state violence.
I know what the public documents say. But do you actually believe the Japanese have no nukes? I find that implausible.
The Japanese have a huge civilian reactor program; first rate engineering ability; worrisome neighbors; and enough nationalist spirit for some top people to disobey the US-imposed ban. Therefore I believe it likely the Japanese have at least some nuclear retaliatory capability.
Yes! Establishment of a positive right to operate one's own server on one's home internet connection would be a huge win for a free internet and an open society.

Oh look - a capitalist running dog shouting racist insults. How fitting for a story about CNN.

Thank you, Dr Pedant, for your learned and enlightening commentary.
Panoptic surveillance FTW! Go, Stasi, go!
Vandenberg airforce base maybe? I believe that used to be (maybe still is??) home to many nuclear-armed ICBMs.

Why did Apple invent?
Google and Apple sure do fear ordinary people being allowed to speak freely in public.
So you're saying you don't laugh much?
Paper tulips whose value is backed up by a few million soldiers and police. To paraphrase Uncle Joe Stalin - how many armored divisions does ETH have?
The above ground nuclear tests were conducted before the dangers of radiation were well understood.
But muh "facts"!!!!1!1!!!
How's that corporate bootleather taste?

FB exec: "Millions of our countrymen are being literally driven mad by capitalism. How can we profit from this?"
Maybe Facebook is worried that Reddit has the lead in the potentially lucrative Stasi collaboration market.
We have become the Soviet Union.
What makes you think they aren't doing that already?
