By the same guys who gave the talk on how common most physical keys were? That one was a blast, too. Wouldn't you know that a key which opens one Kone elevator opens EVERY Kone elevator...

I might add "- the government tries very hard to depict other places as deprived, backward wastelands so nobody wants to leave" and thus nobody wants to work in somewhere more affordable than SF, e.g. Charlotte, where a roving pac

Don't you have to carry the same amount of equipment, and thus equal weight, as a soldier of any gender?

I would think 'primitive + nuclear' the scarier prospect.

While most sites/apps support about 2000 bytes (2KB), some can handle more... Twitter and Slack, for example, allow 4000 bytes in a link. 4000 bytes is enough to apparently encode the full text of Poe's The Raven . https:&#x2F

No I think it's fine. English-speaking people don't go around saying "but I'm from America, not England".

The workers' effort of dismantling the fan promoted the mass line consciousness and building of a vigorous cadre feeling in the whole army.

by lainga 8y ago
Exactly. That's a fantastic tactic. Give out a thousand fans and have only 9 or 10 of them be compromised. A safe fan gets torn down by security researchers and declared vanilla, and those 9 or 10 targets believe their fans are safe to

>explicitly saying they are not communist Just explicitly not Marxist-Leninist. I thought there were plenty of communists who made up with anarchists after balking at Lenin and the Comintern's demands in the 1920s.

Radical anarchism could also cover an anarcho-capitalist with a Recreational McNuke (tm) as well, though.

They are at the very least anti-capitalist. I won't make any assumptions beyond that, but in the West it is not so big a leap of faith from one to the other. https://riseup.net/en/about-us Our purpose is to aid i

It'd be dumb to give out ammo against their case, whether the point is legitimate or not.

The militarization of U.S. police was mostly enabled by the large amount of surplus equipment they had after the invasion of Iraq wound down, which was sold to municipal police at discount. I am sure Germany's collective memory would c

Yes, but it exists alongside other dialects spoken locally which are sort of mutually intelligible, but in some cases only when written (cf. Cantonese). It's analogous to large parts of the US outside the Northeast Corridor using vario

I hear this is a big problem in Brazil, where grains are cheap but everything else is expensive and hard to get. People get the choice between eating a normal amount and being malnourished, or eating a lot of carbs and getting proper nutrie

The article says the lift is only for foreign visitors, and because they plan to turn those parts of Hainan into free-trade zones. Could this be a trial for rolling out the same thing in other places (i.e. SEZs) where foreigners concentrate
