Yes, main charge and detonators are stored separately.

Where’s Euclides?

Not only they wear Nazi insignia, they are basing their whole national identity on Bandera’s legacy, collaboration with nazi germany and UPA (Ukrainian Insurgent Army) known for their genocide on Poles during WW2. They continue to build statues of their genocidal heroes, regularly creating uproar in Polish media which, surprisingly, has no effect on official diplomatic stance or politics (including extension of social programs to include Ukrainian nationals and their children with no control over their whereabouts). One might wonder what kind of dirt SBU (Security Service of Ukraine) has on Polish politicians from both sides of the scene…

Have you even read the links that you use to build an argument?! The Wikipedia page for The Convention itself says that the kind of people on the border with Belarus ARE NOT refugees, they do not match the definition of refugee as defined by The Convention and this problem is highlighted in the article!

Secret organization of Christians? Christians (at least those from Roman Catholic Church) are banned from being members of any secret groups or organizations under the threat of being excommunicated. So by the definition they are no longer Christians. They are simply wealthy people caring for their own agendas.

The title is bullshit…

I hate this too. But - what if we start using this ability to our advantage, just like these guys did? Corps use it, let’s also abuse it so they can’t destroy us without also waiving their rights. LLCs are the privacy abstraction layer of the real world. I figured that even registering your own personal domain is much safer when done through your own LLC than on your personal name. The examples are many.

Invoice from yesterday for December 2023. I used 201 m3 of gas, calculated by provider as being equal to 2224kWh of power for which I paid 682.81 PLN (157 € to be exact) in total including taxes and surcharges. So 3.397 PLN or around 0.78 EUR per m3.

December was one of the coldest months this season. Last year I used maximum of 250 m3 per month which happened to be January/February. This then exceeded 200€

This includes both warm water and heating using low-temperature floor heating. Current thermostat settings give me 22C on the base floor and 20C on the first floor (where most heat escapes, obviously). I also have mechanical ventilation with recuperation.

Shit’s expensive.

With current prices of electricity, the same heating power with perfect constant COP of 3 (not possible with December temps for air heat pump) would cost me 666 PLN. (Nice). How can I offset the cost of installing it in the first place LOL.

Now, with all that context, that Poles where coexisting peacefully with Jews before the war, that countless of them have sacrificed their own lives and lives of their families to help them during their brutal extermination, even they now get called antisemitic when pointing out Israel’s tactics are no different than what Hitler did to them.

Just wanted to chime in to, first of all, thank you for the fantastic work that you are doing, both here in running the instance and in general for the fediverse. I envy your energy to do all these things and as a person with knowledge and experience in various areas of Computer Science and IT, hats off to you. Where do you get all that motivation from?!

As for the topic on hand, I really really love it here mainly that this instance has so far avoided the defederation wars and I can enjoy all discussions from all other instances, including hexbear. Maybe it’s only me, but I hope there are more like me that want to come to their own conclusions based upon discussions from left, right and centre. But maybe it’s also because I mostly read and not write…

Defederation from my PoV is like censorship. People get more extreme in their views when they are not exposed to other ideas and opinions conflicting with their own beliefs. This kills any kind of civilized discussion in the long term.

Also, many of us forget that, even though we might not be fully anonymous, who we are here is not what defines us in the real life. Someone can come and say whatever, that I am the most miserable human on this planet, but is that who I really am? Would one say the same when met face to face?

Peace out, thank you for what you’ve done. Do or don’t keep it up, do whatever you please, it is all yours and you have already accommodated us not even once.

We don’t have this kind of trucks in the Europe AT ALL and people still go fishing, do home repairs, carry heavy or large loads. This is all American lifestyle.

(What’s with the downvotes?)

Small scale reactors that require almost no maintenance and produce enough power for a single city are the hot topic right now due to what you just mentioned. As a side product, they provide hot water for the city.

It couldn’t be more based to name bomb-dropping drones a Precision Payload Delivery System.
