He could have been a great guy, but instead chose violence and oppression while in office. Repeatedly.

How much must one repent to balance out spreading terror across the globe? No matter how committed he is to changing his legacy, he will never be able to take back the suffering he helped cause.

Too bad you didn't tell that to my brain back when I was in peak physical condition from competitive swimming! I'm sure if my brain knew that it was supposed to feel better while eating right, being extremely physically active, and consuming no drugs or alcohol, it wouldn't have subjected me to decades of chronic depression.

Thanks for the thoughtful and well researched advice you ignorant muppet.

Unless they're your manager. Then they stay forever or get promoted.

The loading screen tips also begin to change as you progress, going from normal tips to lines like, "So, you think you're a hero?"

This isn't an attack on your comment, which gave quality information, but I think it's relevant to the conversations linked in your comment.

Their definition of authoritarian is a contradiction to their actions and used subjectively. "I hate authoritarianism, so we should defederate to keep out the authoritarians." This statement is supportive of a fundamentally authoritarian action.

This is also why people who use the term "tankies" seriously are themselves deeply unserious. Their understanding of the topic is superficial at best and colored only by Western biases rooted in anti-communist propaganda. The concept of authoritarianism was itself a product of propaganda.

Saying "no" is authoritarian. Holding elections is authoritarian. Authority itself doesn't matter, what matters is who is in power and how they use their power to influence the world.

Some people recognize and accept this reality and then openly support the power that best aligns with their own benefit.

Anger at tankies is usually just a lack of class consciousness and ignorance based on a term that changes based on who you support and who you do not.

Afaik, all modern browsers can import/export passwords and bookmarks? FF lets you set up an account and sync across devices with a unique PW if you want (not your computer user PW, but it could be).

No idea on touchscreens outside the Android app.

A respirator with an organic vapor trap will work, but an N95 will do essentially nothing for chemical vapors besides give you a false sense of safety.

If you have nothing, do your work outside and don't work with your face directly over areas with the toluene.

Side note: to anyone looking to follow this method, please try to limit the amount of toluene you are exposed to by wearing gloves and working in a well ventilated space. It can do dirty shit to your nervous system and I've seen chemists start to experience symptoms from relatively little exposure to the fumes.

Which you should not feel bad about. Pirates are in the right. IP law is fucked and you are just surviving in this mess.

It's not selfishness and greed so often as it is fear and ignorance. Education remedies the ignorance and steels people against the fear that keeps them from working together against a seemingly more powerful force.

Where was this? The practice described above is common in US universities.
