Oops, sorry. This outlet is worker owned so I wouldn’t want to bypass that.

OT: Slavoj’s shirt is so long he doesn’t need pants. Why he do this??

Ugh you’re right I clearly don’t read enough r/AITA

Ah, I forgot we were talking about vintage furniture. Bad paint sucks but people have got to get over this obsession with looking at wood. Color is fun and not every piece of wood is imbued with sacred beauty.

But unironically I think I agree with Keynes’ idea that once worker productivity gets sufficiently high that the government should start reducing the labor supply by shortening the workweek. I think that would actually get us incrementally closer to communism if capital would ever let it happen. (But it won’t, hence revolution)

My usual tolerably-apolitical sword guy, Scholagladiatoria, has only a short video on the Jambiya and it’s mostly conjecture about usage, which is immediately countered by a few Yemenis in the comments. Not linking because it’s old and not that good, and I don’t want my least terrible sword guy getting dunked on here!

They are typically used by most Yemeni people, except those in the city of Aden where most of them have given up using it because it was banned during the rule of the Marxist government of south Yemen.

Lies and slander! (I actually have no idea)

Also neither a powered parachute or a paramotor are gliding. Sorry, this was the thrust of your comment and I missed it entirely by getting excited about flying machines.

Ah, I think I see the issue: a powered parachute is a light aircraft that you sit on. A paramotor is a propeller mounted to your back. Both use a parafoil as a wing. The Al-Aqsa Flood used powered parachutes, not paramotors.

As a lathe owner I can no longer be silent; the verb for operating a lathe is ‘turn’ not ‘lathe’!
