Hey look, there’s a MGTOW instance. And now it’s blocked.

I mean, it’s the mgtow instance…

The problem is that women already have a function that makes them nonfertile. Its MUCH easier to simulate that function, and at the end stop simulating it, than to create a completely novel mechanism to make a man nonfertile for a certain amount of time.

Granted, the pill isn’t exactly great, but there are quite a few options for women, and they all revolve around roughly the same mechanism. The alternative is shoving a mechanical device inside, and getting to the uterus (while exceptionally unfun) is still easier than getting to the testes.

There’s also a big problem with RISUG like vasalgel (slight conspiracy theory alert here). If you sell a guy vasalgel, it’s a one-time thing. If instead you sell his partner the pill, you get to keep doing that every single day for potentially decades.

I’m hoping it’s not RAW sewage

A truly Impressive warmachine that knows no equal, could best anything else in the world and has but a single tiny weakness.

Unfortunately that weakness is that it doesn’t exist. An issue found in several other amazing pieces Russian military equipment.

According to Wikipedia, yes, on the back

Just… Zoom in on the picture.

Edit: ok this version is kinda low-res. You can see her name in the second plate

It even has her name on it… It’s just pathetic

Yes, one of the rules is to never confuse Cyberpunk with Cybergoth. It’s mildly acceptable to conflate it with gravers (Goth Ravers), but not if you want to make friends.

We live in society. There are rules.

Nobody has more rules than hyper niche cliques. If your locks had foam, you were very clearly deeply wrong about the actual deep meaning of whatever we imagined ourselves to be about and you’re doing everything wrong.

You might be hard pressed to find any cybergoths in the wild, though looking at current fashion, maybe I should dig up some stuff.

Let’s not discard my Cybergoth phase. I had plenty of colours, as long as they were neon

Oh I’m sorry. I didn’t mean it was enlightening as to how things are in reality. It’s enlightening as to your position. You’re literally repeating Russian propaganda talking points that couldn’t be further from the truth.

On the remote chance that you’re not doing that on purpose, you should stop reading RT, as all Russian media is state media from an authoritarian regime.

time is the one resource Big Tech steals that we can’t ever get back.

That’s an odd argument, since DIY takes significantly more time than just buying a solution.

Just preserving your reply here. It’s very enlightening.

Far as I’ve been able to discern (I’m still learning geo stuff) it appears to be a patsy war between NATO and Russia. The more I see outside of US media about it, the more it’s coming across as setting up Ukraine as the eastern European Israel (with even Zelenski talking about wanting to model after Israel).

This would mirror a similar situation with the US holding on to Taiwan so severely to maintain a hold in East Asia. 💀

That said, this is all just my conjecture off of the media I come across. I’m not an expert, just a loud douche.

By… Stepping outside and talking to people? I think all neighborhoods have that ability, even if we don’t really use it much.

Because you, and everyone, is in a huge bubble.

Normal people don’t give a shit where stuff is hosted, or if it’s hosted at all. The vast majority of people couldn’t care less what happens to their catpics if their phone gets crushed and they don’t want to use a separate messaging platform just to talk to you.

The things you think are important absolutely don’t matter to them. Most people don’t give a single second of thought to where their documents should live, and will just download it again on a second device instead of synchronizing anything.

It’s really nice that these things exist, but why would someone do anything with them if they literally don’t have a purpose for it?

Hey OP, quick vibecheck.

Why is there currently a war in Ukraine?

Also, you know what DOES neighbor the US? Fucking Russia.

Also, those are wait times counting from when you call. It doesn’t take into account the issue of many Americans waiting for years and years because they can’t afford it.

Anyone able to fill me in on what the sort of “steelman” argument would be for such a punishment?

I’m having a hard time understanding the expected outcome - I guess just hoping he leaves the country, without actually kicking him out? Why not just kick him out?

These are two entirely different cases. One is a private company not wishing to deal with a private group due to fundraising for Cuba. While that’s a legal thing to do, it’s also perfectly legal for a bank not to want you as a customer. If the DKP thinks they’re being discriminated against, they should sue the bank. The government is totally not involved here.

The second example is a dude who is literally a paid Russian propagandist. Putting them on the sanctions list is much more effective, since they’re not actually in Germany most of the time, but base a lot of their work out of Turkey. Kicking them out would do nothing.

Dogru (…) was previously a key part of Red Fish, a platform financed by Ruptly, a Germany-based outlet partially funded by the Russian state-controlled network, RT. After the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022, Dogru closed Red Fish and started his own independent outlet (red. media)

Quite a few Russian propagandists are using the antifa label and Palestine support to get away with their propaganda work. In the case of Dogru is not even well hidden, he went straight from openly paid Russian propagandist to barely-covered propagandist without even bothering to change the name much, or the media channels at all.

The last few times, at least the corporations showed a real interest. This time, the US government just kind of assumed.
