Abortion in the red states, and that was work he did his last term.

Wait till he’s back in office, he’s nothing if not vindictive.

It wasn’t ejected, if left under its own power while under nominal command of the mcrn. The ship was not declared a loss until they… Lossed it.

The fact the mcrn commander died would mean it remained mcrn, but he made authorized the crew, so when he died it became theirs, up to his authority as a commanding officer of the mcrn.

However, he was not a flag officer, so while he could give them the watch, he could not give them permanent command (not his to give), and when a Martian officer showed up, he was authorized to relieve them and take the ship back. Gunny could have asked, but that was fuzzy since that’s technically enlisted and not normally authorized to relieve an officer (not that holden was).

If they resisted (which they did in the ring, even though it was in legal dispute at the time), that was an act of piracy.

So they’re space pirates.

This wasn’t a state/local issue, and IIRC the state said they wouldn’t help hand the kid back.

This was a case where the federal government was enforcing federal law, and the state stepped aside, who do you think the feds send when they have to enforce federal law, andy griffith?

They weren’t surrendering the kid, what exactly did you expect?

There were people screaming that they wouldn’t give him back and would fight anyone who came to take him.

It’s the south Florida Cuban community, surprised you have this position.

Yeah but we’re paying for most of it…

They should build a wall and make fox news pay for it.

Damn, I’m 1 degree south of y’all, just missed the party!

Yes, but I’m just waking up, it was a florid way of explaining a subtle point, and it made sense.

I don’t know why we don’t have an actual term for that, it seems more meaningful than being within the arctic circle.

“Hey Linus, why haven’t you rewritten the kernel in rust yet, you idiot?!?! Don’t you realize you’re missing the future, old man!?!?”

Actually it’s both, there’s polling with a timeout interrupt if an incoming urb hasn’t been processed quickly.

This way you can take them in batches at regular intervals.

Thinking about zig for some stuff.

Mostly because those rusticles are pissing me off.

They are greedy, but oil isn’t really found in Europe proper so they have to get it from other countries, which means transport, tariffs, losing money to that country via trade deficit, etc.

That’s not why.

They are taught that education is bad because the Bible teaches them everything they really need to know, and focusing on their weird version of ‘Christianity’^tm makes them better than all those academic eggheads in their luxurious ivory towers while the people who actually run things make sure no help ever actually gets to them.

Thank God they didn’t, it’s my default toolkit for gui hacks, I don’t want to have to make quick gui apps where everything is named uwu.

Stalin had a saying about that.

The modern trend of people from the former East Germany supporting AfD probably has more to do with the interceding decades of liberal rule,

Which West Germany didn’t face?

combined with the region’s historic relative poverty (which preceded even the Nazis).

Western Germany was more industrialized, because of 2 reasons: 1: access to coal and metal in the Ruhr, 2: Access to trade with Europe.

The former is just natural, the latter is more of that “librul witchcraft” of globalization.

The only difference between the two otherwise is that the Soviets brutalized the East, and that left a legacy of uneducated poverty.

Basically the Soviets took an impoverished land and squeezed as hard as they could.

Oh, and you’re right there were no camps in East Germany, those camps were in the USSR: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forced_labor_of_Germans_in_the_Soviet_Union

It really is, except for East Germany, which got rid of their Nazi trash and replaced them with Soviet trash, which, just like Russia has, swerved them hard nazi again.

They lived in the entire US, particularly the south, as did millions of slaves who suffered centuries of genocidal brutality and worse.

And as a non-white American , you are infinitely full of shit.

I’ve lived in most of the country, I have NEVER experienced such utter and brutal racism as in the vile, depraved south.

This is because after the civil war we let the slaver class live in the south, and they just took over as soon as our back was turned.

Worst decision in this country’s history, we would be so much greater of a nation if we’d simply dealt with the problem then instead of letting their filth fester and spread. Notice how Germany is a good country nowadays while the south is still as worthless as ever.

Indiana had racism, but comparing it to the south is like comparing a sneeze and ebola.

I lived in the Midwest, it’s nothing like that.

That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard.

The south literally fought a war (Texas fought 2) to preserve their practices of slavery and genocide.

The Midwest fought, killed, and died to stop them.

Illiterate too, Hitler wrote of Jim Crow as a model for Germany in Mein Kampf.

Hitler spoke about the American south and Jim Crow with reverence, he thought it should be a model for German racist policies.

This was something he wrote about in Mein Kampf.
