Ja!
It remains such a funny story in its stupidity
This one in particular is fucking nuts. A giant military exercise that showed real vulnerabilities that a general named Van Ripper (seriously) exploited and pointed out. And the military said "nuh uh, we refuse to accept that." And then the US invaded Iraq soon after, having learned nothing.
Ik niet, ik heb het sociale contact nodig en verveel me te veel liggend op de bank niets nuttigs kunnend doen

Ughh wat vervelend
Er was heel veel discussie over toen die post uitkwam maar ik kan even goede posts vinden helaas
Chili, Zuid Korea, zuid afrika, Brazilië bijvoorbeeld. Maar dat is ook het punt, je kan "op democratische wijze" op ontzettend veel verschillende manieren interpreteren, dat is niet zo duidelijk. En de auteur is een beetje selectief met zijn definities om zo cases te vinden die hem bevestigen
I could believe declaring robots pedestrians might simplify traffic law, but if care isn't taken to privilege human self transport, that could be exploited worse than people leaving escooters lying around tripping the elderly. The SDGs need walkable cities, not sidewalks converted to conveyor belts.
Is dat voor de werking of voor het nemen van de pil zelf?
NEW: Did you know heatwaves can trigger explosions in ammunition stores?? I spoke to explosives experts to find out why climate change has the power to blow stuff up. www.thereengineer.pro/p/boom-time-...
I read your comments and figured you meant something differently than what i thought , hence why i deleted the comment

Dat artikel is ruim bekritiseerd door mensen die wel expertise in dit onderwerp hebben. Hij laat ontzettend veel regeringen & landen buiten beschouwing en heeft cirkelvormige definities over fascisme en wat ten einde brengen betekent, waardoor hij automatisch uitkomt bij de vooraf besloten conclusie
Wat ontzettend fijn
Ik zal eerlijk zeggen dat ik tot het lezen van dit artikel absoluut geloofde dat hij masturbeerde, maar ben nu helemaal van gedachten veranderd
That will just lead to a messy office, every single incidence of removing waste recepticles has shown that

When Assad’s security state collapsed, locked doors opened, spilling decades of secrets. Among them: 100s of stolen children, hidden in orphanages & used to blackmail parents. We’ve done the deepest dive yet into this cruel system. Here’s what we found 🧵 www.lighthousereports.com/investigatio...
Such horrid ableism They should know better
Ik niet! Zou daar helaas niet eens ruimte voor hebben, i wish
I never had a fountainpen explode in a plane myself! Also traveled with a bottle of ink just fine, just put it in a ziploc in case of emergencies

Gefeliciteerd!
Scientists: We need to reduce meat consumption to keep food production within planetary limits. EU consumers: We like alt protein and know what's meat and what isn't since it's obvious. EU politicians: Let's legislate language to protect the meat industry. www.foodnavigator.com/Article/2025...
Michael Peluso’s team at UCSF is looking for pre-Covid #pwME in the SF Bay Area. I've heard great things about their Long Covid work and suspect this study will be fruitful!
Oh sufkop je vergeet te tobben en te twijfelen
Spain imposed an arms embargo on Israel and unveiled new measures to help halt the Gaza genocide, with PM Pedro Sánchez vowing Spain can’t stop the assault alone but will keep pressing to end it.
That is a throwaway at the end , thats my point
I dont think each coalition makes their own flag, that would be fun
I love this as a goal
I wonder how many Arizonian tourists come to Belgium only to be very confused and insulted by all the anti-Arizona graffiti (The current Belgian govt coalition is called Arizona cause the colours of the parties together are also the colours of the Arizona flag)
Wat een bullshit
That is a relief ! Now time to sleeep
I cannot overstate just how awful this stupid fucking bill proposal is - adding backdoors into encryption on OS level - "sniff" every single message before it gets encrypted AND SAVE IT CENTRALLY - let a goddamn hallucinating "AI" mark people as criminals it needs to be stopped, post haste
Whatever you start with in your statement is th main point you will communicate And thus this is not signalling worker solidarity and support
So often i mistype a word and to me it seems so obvious what the word should be but no, no helpful suggestions On my phone too
Wat super lief
How peaceful
Ik gok dat zij muziek hebben gedeeld waar jij op hebt geklikt?
Shampoo tailed? Idk i feel like we are close but have not reached THE pun yet
Thanks a lot Pavlov
Dont forget helmet hair
A year later and i still do it and i have not even watched Grey's in the year in between Bailey and Meredith still pop up in my head every time i work on an anti-helix
I wanted curly hair all my life! It is so cute. But alas.
People always like to put aspects of the world in neat categories but things never are neat in reality
I have heard that white hairs have quite different texture, but that is so funny! Is it annoying to style?
No it does not dry out quickly, and gets instead less frizzy over time! My hair actually has quite low porosity instead I have been thinking about what you say, whether my hair changed to more "naturally curly" (as it is the base of my post), but when push comes to shove i don't think so
I have heard from many people saying that their hair totally changed after chemo! Same with pregnancy and menopause. So interesting
But which one ? !
No it is more a texture thing, my hair is very light and springy actually after washing, but over time it gets a bit more texture, and since i always braid my hair every day, it starts to hold a bit of the waves of the braids even unbraided
Shows you are pure of heart
I've been pondering this in the shower, cause my hair texture changes from flat as a door hair type 1 to hair type 2b if i do not wash it for a while, getting a little wave and sometimes even 2c. But then what is the "natural state" to judge it by? :D (No it is not serious so hold your horses)
Ontological question for fun: when is your natural hair? Is it how your hair is when dried fresh after washing your hair, no gunk no nothing. Or is it the state of your hair after not washing for 2 weeks? Cause shampoo and conditioner is "unnatural" and hair altering just like hair treatments are
Dat klinkt heel leuk!
Dat heb ik ook, daarom heb ik mijn huissleutel aan een karabijnhaak aan mijn sleutelbos, zodat ik die er makkelijk af kan halen om de deur open te doen, en dan hoef ik niet mijn fiets op slot te doen!
Je hebt zoveel tijd en tegelijkertijd zo weinig tijd
Hoe was het feest dat niet maar stiekem toch een beetje voor je verjaardag was? En wat super naar weer

If you did not know about Lib Gen before, you come from a much much much richer university than the rest of us who have been forced to rely on it
Ah jammer! Hopelijk is het deel te bestellen
Ha
Lmao wtf is dit nou weer
Hopelijk! Of printen?
Het spijt me :(
Haha prachtige meme
Hmmm ik weet wie ik fronzend moet aankijken hierover
I’m sorry, could you run that by me again
I was about to say that this looks complete nonsense
You got this!
Gefeliciteerd!
Haha dat dacht ik ook
Ja mijn buren roken ook 24/7 uit het raam en het boeit ze echt niet dat ze andere mensen (inclusief hun eigen kinderen) gezondheidsproblemen bezorgen
Gefeliciteerd allebei!
Links is een klassieker maar rechts mag er ook zijn
oh god
is there anything worse than the musical episode of a TV show?
Was looking for lodging but this was too cringe: a cryptocurrency themed b&b (called "Bed and Blockchain"), with each room having a different crypto coin as theme
Finally an answer to "what have the romans ever done for us"
Way to go!
Long live the king
And of course there are some exceptions author/pub/article wise, but overall it is even worse than tech journalism and that field sucks too
I just wish science journalism was a little more critical sometimes, and not just translating research findings for a general audience.
Its such a trash field. Both cause of the influence of donors and cause it is methodologically impossible to get truly accurate data even for the most methodologically honest
Ja dat parasolletje is flink gegroeid, goed aangeslagen met deze regen
Ah damn, wat vervelend
Thank you
Oh so only for US books too?
So lovely
