Does this count as actual fascism yet?

Who wants to have personal effects in their grave anyway? When I’m dead, I want to become soil as quickly and cheaply as possible.

A scientist might think that the historical/scientific value is more important than the personal rights of people who died millenia ago.

The people who dug up graves in the early 20th century just didn’t see the locals as people, though, which is also why most of those museums were in Europe, not anywhere near where the artifacts were found (if the artifacts were given to museums at all, instead of being sold to private collectors).

If you ask me personally: A pharaoh is a king, and fuck the king.

AFAIK cameras can be identified by the dust/grain patterns on their lenses. Probably no risk of random users doxxing you through that, but I don’t feel comfortable opening myself up to mass surveillance like that.

Neat, maybe they’ll extend it to other groups in the future once the infrastructure exists - many illnesses aren’t “terminal” but untreatable and extremely limiting and/or painful.

At 13, they are both basically and literally teenagers, which comes with the legal consequence of being liable for criminal actions.

Good find! And yeah, the referral order sentence seems to be rather obviously aimed at rehabilitation instead of punishing, would be weird if that was combined with a lifelong criminal record that is visible to potential employers and the like.

Teenagers are minors, but not children, my guy.

“child, 13” - a 13yo is a teenager, not a child.

That article was a pain in the ass to read, horribly structured.

What she did: “The court heard the girl was taken to the protest outside the Potters International Hotel, which houses asylum seekers, by a parent of a friend. Police body-worn video showed the teenager briefly bang and kick at a door of the hotel while voices could be heard telling her to stop.”

Her sentence, a “12-month referral order”: “A referral order means you are required to attend a youth offender panel. The panel, you, your parents/carers and the victim (where appropriate) agree a contract aimed at repairing the harm that has been caused and addressing the causes of the offending behaviours.” (https://unlock.org.uk/advice/referral-order-18/)

The conviction seems to be on permanent record, though, which does seem a bit much for this considering her age.

I made a shell script titled “update”, it updates system packages, flatpaks and python packages. Too many lines for an alias for my tastes.

The only thing that’s stupid about this IMO is that Skywalker is supposed to be a last name, not a first/given name.

He says his son was eventually issued the passport and the family’s vacation is still on.

He [the father] says his son was eventually issued the passport and the family’s vacation is still on.

Sounds like that office doesn’t know how their own rules work.

I mean, give me a knife or screwdriver and it’s equal, but anything that requires extensive practice for basic competence is naturally going to be become focused on one hand (e.g. handwriting) or a specific combination of hands (e.g. you need two hands to play guitar, but people will generally learn to play it either righthanded or lefthanded and suck at the other one regardless of how ambidexterous they are).

I remember frequently telling my mother to stop smoking, hiding her cigarettes and the like (that was in elementary school). She still smokes, I never started.

I wonder where I got that from. I don’t think we talked about that in school so early, and I didn’t have like The Talk about drugs at home.

Yay. Chili flakes are great, too.

BTW, the worst pizza I ever had was served in Italy. Absolutely drowned in oil.

Unfortunately, the tankies are also impeding the change we actually need (e.g. expansion of workers rights). It’s harder to get involved in leftism when such a large part of vocal leftists are tankies.
