How the fuck did that happen?

Dear south korean government

please hire me instead. I promise I'm so paranoid, this will never happen.

you're absolutely right. this is a stupid solution for a stupid problem. But you're also right that this is a product for a special subset of people that need this and whom this works for.

Both can be true.

That's the nice thing about capitalism (free market economics actually): You don't have a authority that decides what is useful and useless, what gets produced and what doesn't. Because in the End, everything is useless. I have a robotvac because I'm too lazy to vacuum myself. Stupid and Lazy. I have a Vacuum cleaner because I'm too lazy to use a Broom. Stupid and Lazy.

So yes, it's both. Stupid solution to a stupid problem. But it's also a great product that solves a problem that a subset of our population has and therefore useful.

It's a meat brand.

For those just as confused as I, it's a meat brand.

They're not talking about an actual boar.

That guy has my utmost respect.

To admit he was wrong and change his worldview (quire literally) when confronted with evidence, this is not easy. Mad respect.

I got a Message offering me to buy too. In the Message it says i need to be a permanent Resident of the US.

Buddy, you had me enter my Country when i created the Account. You know full-well I'm from the EU. Why not just sort me out of the Mailing-list?

Hey there. I am looking for a Calendar-Syncing-Solution that can:

  1. Sync CalDav Calendars between Phone, Laptop and Desktop

  2. share certain Calendars with other Users on my Server

  3. subscribe to external Ical Calendars and make them available to (certain) Users

but nothing i looked at seems to support my Point Nr. 3. anyone know a good solution for me?

I mean, the EU has already done this and now Japan is doing the same. So i guess it's very well possible that other countries besides Japan will also follow suit.

they're both absolutely awful pieces of shit.

but here are my thoughts:

  • They're both awful religious theocracies that want to exterminate the other side
  • Israel tends to leave citizens from other countries in peace, whereas Hamas has shown no mercy to germans or british citizens they've captured
  • Israeli soldiers don't rape and parade prisoners
  • Israel has however been brutalizing Palestinians, with evidence of individual soldiers killing Palestinian children at random. It doesn't seem to be Doctrine though. Israel also has Apartheid Structures discriminating against Palestinians
  • The People captured by Hamas mostly were in a Zone that the UN has declared to be illegally occupied by Israel
  • There are Reports of Hamas Fighters going around and rounding up civilians for mass-executions

So yeah, it is a really really complicated Situation with no clear good or bad side. My personal stance on this is:

  1. I hope the Israeli Military can free the hostages taken by Hamas and bring the Perpetrators of the Massacres we hear about to justice (if the Reports of the Massacres are true)
  2. I am afraid that the hard-line anti-Palestinian Government of Israel will use this as an excuse to terrorize Palestinians and make them suffer
  3. I hope that in the End the internationally recognized and agreed-upon borders will be restored. I do hope however, that it will not happen as a Consequence of this military action, as it would embolden the use of Terrorism, Massacres and Hostage-Taking as a negotiation Tactic.
