Every accusations is admission when it comes to pro-fascist conservatives.

An indication that Taiwan would probably also be put through this sinicisation process Islamic Chinese cultures on the mainland are.

Sounds like if would be a good indie film if the right tensions were played right.

Rishi Sunak is the name of a skunk in a Disney movie… And if it’s not, it should be.

I just assumed that train on an answer sheet could probably get you past most tests.

Why not buy some under water drills and an underwater propulsion device then go down to the marina and sink some expensive yatchs? How about slashing some police tires?

Why not study an industry you wanna take down and figure out how? Or gather an online flash mob and invade a conservative website or institution. How about running for office at your local council? Or sending letters to good and bad politicians saying what you think. Contact the media about something you believe but make sure it’s the right level for what you’re saying.

Or go read some leftwing theory.

As a rule, files never get deleted… They get over written. So it depends on whether that process has happened to any loose images.

Going after that big dinosaur cash $$$

In a lost in the wilderness survival situation you probably want to scout the lay of the land from where you are, then follow the valleys to the nearest water source, or coast, as settlements are usually by the water.

It’s great that the two characters discuss this topic, I think it’s in the multi-part TNG episode where Ambassador Spock is creating a dissident movement on Romulus.

I say yes, she can be black. It doesn’t really matter as long as we’re all human.

The Official title of Taiwan is The Republic of China.

They still allowed the KMT (aka The Chinese Nationalist Party), to participate in their Democracy even though it ran the country as an anti-democracy Authoritarian state for 40 years.

Taiwan and China do a lot of trade together, a war would be difficult for both of them.

Yeah, but Data is actually intelligent and brilliant. ChatGPT is often just giving best averaged answers based on what’s most likely - and still hallucinates even in the latest version.

I haven’t used it, but it happens even in the demo they showed.

Technically he’s a Spock stand in: hyper logical but not quite getting humanity.

This characteristic… In fact lots of characteristics get shared and mix and matched across DS9, TNG, and Voyager.

In Voyager Seven of Nine and The Doctor are the “not quite understanding humanity” characters. In DS9, it’s Odo.

Ideally newer Trek would do this too, but it might also want to have:

A quirky or modded engineer: LaForge, O’Brien, Scotty, Be’lana.

A superior strength character: Spock, Data, Odo, Worf, Seven of Nine, Tuvok.

…and maybe a couple of psychic characters, Spock, Kes, Tuvok, Seven of Nine, Benjamin.

You’ll probably also need some mentally brilliant characters, a Klingon, and someone who doesn’t fit in due to a negative background and is jaded about it.

…a brilliant doctor helps too.

These characteristics are needed so you can write certain storyline types and stand alone episodes.

It’s a certain mentally that sometimes makes that change. Lyndon Larouche made the change and became a conspiracy theorist, as did Jordan Peterson.

It’s an interesting path, but sometimes it’s expressive of someone who feels betrayed by Western Democratic Liberalism as a whole (aka society). That kind of person is often an outsider, and outsiders can do some strange and sometimes even dangerous things.

Honestly, you don’t have to do much to villainize some aspects of industrial farming. It’s mostly only possible due to the haber-bosch nitrogenation process, which was invented by the same guy who invented chemical warfare, and the process itself uses lots of petrochemicals and dumps a lot of nitrogen into the natural environment. That’s not even getting into the use of migrant workers, or the patenting of dna over some crops, and the food monopolies that exist in some countries.

I also don’t think it’s a case of “there can be only one system”… And I don’t run into a lot of people saying that.

For myself, this isn’t one of the more pressing issues in the world. I don’t really think people have enough land to be able to be self-sufficient, but gardening is a nice hobby.

Food markets vary from nation to nation, and have political aspects I’m fairly disinterested in, so can’t really comment on that.

Bye!

Assuming it used all the same tools and techniques, making only minor replacements of tractors for voluntary domestic labor … I don’t see why it couldn’t reach averages in a similar magnitude. Given them larger plots where they could use industrial tools and they should produce about the same on average.

Eother way there attempts more self sufficiency are to be commended… So the I’m not sure of the point of the post really.

If we had a socialist style of market economy like Vietnam we’d produce more crops.

Also in a correctly valued economy we wouldn’t have to subsidize farming.

Yeah, fair enough.
