and for a brief period other Western politicians were imitating the Israeli pronounciation, because they only interact with Israelis, not Palestinians

plagiarism is a capitalist lie, sharing knowledge is good and beneficial

there's a big difference between "sharing knowledge" and presenting other people's work as your own

someone on r/trueanon said this but he really does look like a Nazi. amphetamines and being gay in an evil way does crazy shit to the body

buried AC transmission lines also suffer from capacitive losses to earth which would significantly reduce grid efficiency on the distances being covered in the US. we do have buried lines within cities but outside of them it doesn't really make sense

i'm not 100% of the time but i eat meat very occasionally, don't drink milk and only eat "nice" eggs (probably not much better than factory-farmed but i'm planning on getting chickens within a year). i don't think animal agriculture is fundamentally immoral but the industrialized system we currently have is abhorrent morally and environmentally. growing enough meat for westerners to eat it daily is unsustainable

as an aside in the latest Trillbillies episode Terrence said that we need degrowth communism and it got me wondering what that means to everyone. to hopefully stifle any silly debates i'll clarify that i'm talking about the West, not underdeveloped/overexploited nations in the Global South.

an end to oil drilling, gas extraction, and coal mining will obviously be necessary to stop climate change. how much modern technology can we replicate without relying on those things or other ecologically violent resource extraction? what does an agriculture system that doesn't rely on petrochem-derived fertilizers and herbicides look like? how do we repair the immense damage that's already been done?

i'd really appreciate some book recommendations on this topic as well as everyone's thoughts

it discusses the Synanon cult that was born out of AA, how it related to MKULTRA and 60s psychiatric research, and how it birthed the modern troubled teen industry.

for real though, modern linux distros will rarely require you to enter a command line, and if you do, a quick internet search can usually help you find out what you need to enter
