most places in the world require that you have a license for tourist renting. In theory, they inspect each unit before giving the license, to make sure it is safe. And in theory airbnb requires that license before allowing you to list on their site. If you don’t have the license, you get fined, same as if you opened a store without stablishing a formal company

you know this is the internet and you are allowed to type whatever you want, right? let me show you: “retarded”

I always laugh at people that never saw a pacu

hang it over a silo and let the silo fill itself from gravity, as the sand falls and new sand is created. a lot of prfit for a small operation

what happens if I glue pills to the box, are they one item now? and if they are sewn together? if if the box is shredded and reglued, do I gets shreds, shreds + glue or intact box? what If I recycle a new box from the fibers of the original and add the pills in it, can I duplicate the pills now?

didn’t know that, that’s dumb then

the movies never claimed that part was natural, godzilla was changed by atomic bomb tests

by that logic, nobody would have sex while in high school. And japan would have basically no virgins, since they have the love hotels.

btw, america needs those. very covenient, and with the housing prices and everyone living with their parents, very much in demand

aside from the social reasons, there is a general decline in testosterone over time in the population, probably due to estrogen-like compounds from plastic. So yeah, people are less horny. Doesn’t mean they are not horny, just less.

unless the meteor is a rogue moon, the mass gained/lost is negligible compared to other particles interacting with the atmosphere or radiating (in and out), processes which are constantly happening.

for example, just the sun contributes some 200 tons every year (We also radiate out about the same mass that comes in). in 7.5 million years, that equals the asteroid that killed the dinossaurs (an event which happens way less often). So yeah, maybe the mass changes for a while, but even then, the dinossaur-killing asteroid is 0.000000000001% of earth’s mass… If we had one meteor like that everyday for a billion years, we would get some 20% extra mass.

(rough numbers I calculated just know, double check please)

You are missing the point. If somebody is gonna profit in any way from US citizens, the US oligarchs want their cut. If it was about controlling information, it would specifically mention about that and what is to be done about it. Making the company be US controlled increases the reach of government on it, yes, but it doesn’t gaurantee or enforce it in any way. The thing it gaurantees is where the money will end up.

if someone could actually get new information and insight under something like this, why would we use it in a prison instead of putting people to study the whole of human knowledge and create demi-god wizards?

it is not ai generated, that photo is from 2014. it is highly edited by the original photographer

be careful with pc parts, even processors are being faked (they use a lower model and engrave it as if it is the higher model)

it matters because it is a language that few people learn, so the available talent is scarce, increasing the chance something bad happens. Keeping up with an evolving society is essential for the longevity of a service

chrome and edge use chromium, so everything is 1:1 compatible. you can’t do the same with firefox: extensions work differently, several options will be different, any custom layouts will be missing so things look different, etc

The U.N. (as an organization) is always in a weird position, if they take a hard stance on something they risk their own existence. Saying they will investigate the allegations is reasonable, altough immediately firing the people involved is a bit too much.

Exactly, when Russia was being invaded, they lost a ton of people to defend their land. Doesn’t mean they died willingly (people were drafted against their will, in every war in history that happens), but the pressure to surrender didn’t mount up on the government. In a defensive war, people are more willing to die and to let their fellow citizens die. There are always people clamoring for an agreement or a surrender to avoid loss of life, but those voices are few compared to the ones who want to defend their land (or want others to go do it).

In a war of aggression however, every death come with a “why the fuck are we attacking them anyway? why did my son/brother/cousin have to die?”. USA lost in vietnam that way. More kills, more money, won basically every engagement and still lost the war. If the population is against a war of aggression, it will end.

Very few wars end in complete domination of the enemy. Most end in an agreement of some sort or a retreat. I believe that, if Ukraine keeps getting money to stay in the fight, they will outlast Russia in political willingness to fight and will recover their land.

not even if they were facing complete destruction would they conscript even 1% of the population.

Wars end when people get pissed or you run out of money. We are getting closer to that every day for both sides. if ukraine can at least keep getting more money, they eventually win. Ukrainians are the defenders, so their population is willing to fight for longer
