Droechai

Oh, Im in northern europe and made in Japan / Taiwan / Korea / China (except lately for the last one) never had any such connotations. I remember Japan and West Germany/Germany as high standard. Still got some West Germany workshop tools I inherited from grandpa, and those might be made to US standards due to US influence in the german reconstruction effort.

Made in the US items was uncommon as I grew up, only item I remember being made there was a frustrating us clock radio as a child due to it never keeping time right (possible by using the mains frequency as time keeper rather than a crystal). I am born late 80s.

What about horrible computers is rooted in xenophobia (and racism which is a form of xenophobia)?

And even if you did go on the internet, there wouldnt be any answer to the prompt “does chewing salad risk splitting atoms” on yahoo or altavista. The search engines where not “smart” enough to parse deeper in the question nor where there enough “random trivia” answers online

The wifi hotspot uses mobile data and requires an active wifi reciever on the computer while the usb tether can use mobile or wifi data and only requires a working usb on the computer.

You basically only plug a usb data cord between the computer and phone, and then activate usb tether in the phones connection settings

“From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of steel. I aspired to the purity of the Blessed Machine.” is meant as dystopia, not something to aspire towards

“In kommer Gösta” is my favourite proto-progg track!

A sterling engine are awesome so thats a big plus!

Im thinking of powering the wave generators with wood gas power, since Im already heating my house with wood fire I just need to starve the furnace of oxygen to make the gas appear. Mimor inconvenience with the added carbon monoxide and tar, but Im sure ill work it out

I got the same issue, but I solved it by building a desalination system at home. After the water is cleansed by the oyster, the water gets extracted leaving the salt behind which can be added to a new batch of fresh water. Saves me a few salt trips to the store.

The elctricity bill is a tad bit higher, but I plan to add wave generators to the oyster aquarium so I can extract power from there just by lowering and raising an inflated ball through the water line. Should also help disturbing any deposits in the tank

Lol, yeah I really should choose my battles of technicalities better. According to another user he seems to have been properly and lawfully declared a war criminal so my point was moot :)

Edit: oh, that user was you!

Did he get convicted or does the ICC or ICJ need to do a court process? If any state can just allege someone being a criminal to exhume and extract dna without judicial oversight we open a door quite wide for abuse.

Edit: “Everyone knows he did it so no court is necessary” havent given humanity perfect scores in human rights before

Hmm, if you store the zombies in differen environs maybe they will “poke-evolve” into new forms? A zombie in ordinary conditions turn into a skeleton and if its stored in salt or a smoke hut it becomes a mummy (smoke house can also add extra abilites, add liquid smoke for STR bonus, juniper for that wild +DEX or sandalwood for a bit of CHA). Store it as a medical school teaching aid and it will develop an INT score, and if its an exhibition in the museum or library it can be WIS

Then again, why bother being a powerful wizard if you still need to work raising undead on weekends and bank holidays?

Oh, thats a heavy accusation. Makes the responses and tone in the text more coherent! If Id understood that I wouldnt have kept responding.

Thank you

Im not sick, I have a neuropsychiatric issue that puts me on the autism spectrum and I am already in treatment for that. I understand that my autism can make me a bit rigid when it comes to classification and use of psychiatric terms but I am a bit confused why that would harm if its put into action. I am putting my thoughts into action right now typing this response.

I am not trying to play semantic games, words have meaning and weights, so calling a duck a duck, ie a rapist a rapist is important to me rather than minimizing that persons crimes by using a psychiatric term that can explain the impulse but not reasoning behind acting the crime. It confuses me that I agreed with you from the beginning and then I started reading more and more hostility the more you responded nd I tried to expand and explain my reasoning. Even calling to nuking my account because I believe the act of raping children is worse than ideation of raping children doesnt make sense to me.

Of course I have to keep explaining since you refer to my condition as an illness, which is also not at all how the words illness is supposed to be used.

Im heading to bed, this conversation doesnt work out and I dont know if its because I cant explain to you that action comes after thought, if we are talking about different things, if its my english as second language blocks mutual understanding or whatever.

It irritates me when people keep calling a rapist a pedophile, since one tells you that the person did a crime and the other did not. I refuse to call a murderer “person with violent tendencies” since its the murder thats the issue, not why the person commited it

Of course pedophilia is problematic and dangerous

I was agreeing with you and your use of the word rape resonated with an irritation I have of people discussing pedophilia (a potentially dangerous paraphilia which isnt illegal by itself) rather than the sexual crimes the victims where put through by the rapists or that the perpetrators are rapists

English is not my first language so might express myself with clumsy wordings

Edit: I believe a person can be a pedophile and a victim due to it, because the persons brain wiring is fucked up. That person deserves compassion, dignity, help and treatment, just as we help other people suffering. The moment a person hurts another sexually, especially a child, (with or without intent) that changes everything, and should be forcefully treated as an immediate and urgent threat to society and the persons around the individual.

Id love if the criticism would focus on the rape, forced actions and the heinous power situation of being a child or young teen stuck on an island rather than focusing on calling it “pedophiles” since that both draws focus away from justice for victims toward the perpetrators as well as putting focus on a “title” rather than an act.

Raping people are bad. Being a pedophile/hebephile is a horrible mental issue that needs to be handled before any act can happen, and so we should remove the stigma so the sufferers that hasnt commited acts can get help. These two things are not the same.

When I was 16 I had a relationship with a 42 year old, it lasted a few months. People where expressing concern due to the age difference but not much more.

Also in Sweden
