Why would you not bullet the first word in that bulleted list?

Yeah exact same opinion. I’ve trained myself to use them by default. Not having one when necessary is a lot worse than having them where it’s not absolutely needed. Just totally cuts out any chance of ambiguity.

Yeah this is just childish bullshit journalism. Orban is for sure a piece of shit but like… who wrote this trash?

That’s how you know everything’s going great

The Russian monarchy ended about 39 years prior to the Hungarian Revolution in '56. The whole Russian Revolution thing and the murdering of the Romanovs and all that.

Well I sure have. Especially before multiple servers defederated with Lemmygrad and Hexbear.

As if tankies aren’t constantly simping for both Russia and China on here.

A little history refresher on the origin of the term

The term “tankie” was originally used by dissident Marxist–Leninists to describe members of the Communist Party of Great Britain (CPGB) who followed the party line of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU). Specifically, it was used to distinguish party members who spoke out in defense of the Soviet use of tanks to crush the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 and the 1968 Prague Spring uprising, or who more broadly adhered to pro-Soviet positions.

So specifically being a tankie and supporting fascist bullshit go hand in hand and always have.

Being that the exterior is some sort of stucco/earthen kind of material, it would have been refinished on the outside multiple times in 600 years. There’s buildings around 800 years old where I live that are in great condition because they’ve been well maintained. Also it’s pretty typical for old religious buildings to have been added onto and modified in phases. Quite a lot of the big old churches in Europe changed in design and grew in size over 100s of years, for example.

I feel like this isn’t surprising information. Quite a lot of the rhetoric and behavior coming out of China has signaled as much pretty openly for a while now.

Lol you’re not joking. TIL

Alright… yeah, fair

Where all the tankies at? Lets hear why this is totally cool and ok.

Definitely true, but it doesn’t account for everyone under 40 who doesn’t make it out to the polls. A lot of that is apathy or laziness.

Looking at a demographic table, it’s overwhelmingly obvious that most Americans are boomers

Not true. Boomers are on the decline now and it’s a steep cliff from here out.

Definitely correct about them voting more than other groups, cannot argue with that at all. Young people need to get off their ass and actually vote.

Yep they also bribed him to the tune of millions of dollars while he was in office. He’s just way easier to influence and is a lot stupider and surrounded by likewise stupid, conniving people.

The real problem here is that companies can hoard and sell said data. The NSA part in essence is a red herring.

They have an expiration date of 4-5 years, so not really an issue. I just think it’s a waste of my time to go to the store to get a 10-20 pack and also a waste of space and a waste of packaging.

Small annoyance overall I know, but it’s one of my gripes about over the counter medicine here.

Edit: more annoying is that more hardcore cold medicine is not sold over the counter here at all. Anything with pseudoephedrine is prescription only. Also the sort of actually effective decongestants and antihistimes are all prescription only if they’re even legal at all here.

But what’s funny is despite that, I can literally walk into the grocery store and buy codeine cough syrup right off the shelf without asking anybody or showing ID. It seems ridiculous to me.

In the US you can get a bottle of 500 ibuprofen 200mg pills for about $10.

So for your case that’s 8000mg for 3 euros or .0375 cents a mg

In the US that would be 100,000mg for $10 or .01 cents a mg.

So 3.75x more expensive not factoring in the Euro being higher on the dollar.

But it’s not even about the price, it’s the fact that it’s just hard to find a large bottle of it here in the EU at all (at least the Netherlands where I am now). I’ve never really seen it in stores. I much prefer buying a bulk bottle that lasts a year or two easily.
