The root of evil is state power. Limiting supply by regulation, dumbing down people, and most importantly protecting the individuals doing this from personal consequences and the whole "shareholder protection" thingy.

Policing is just giving the State more power and reducing our freedoms a little bit more.

People want Protection and Safety above all. We will all soon live in a open-air prison. I'd rather live dangerously and free, than safe and "protected".

Don't feel bad. A friend of mine studied the T&C and guidelines closely and noticed that it said that nudity depicted in classical art was exempt from the "no nudity" rules.

So, he posted a image of a really old painting, can't remember which one, but in excess of 200 years old.

Temporarily banned for a month!

Appealed by pointing to the clause stating the exemption; Banned upheld after human review.

@freemo

Possibly!

I haven't seen any westerner refer to mangosteen at all. And considering its origin in Malaysia/Indonesia (+PH and I guess TH) with their largely Muslim populations and fondness of the fruit (my 2nd most favorite, after mango) the term is guaranteed not present there.

Quick search on the net leads to a joke; "What do you call a Jewish mango? Mangostein"

@freemo

Your pettiness has reached new levels ;-)

When there are "side effects", then clearly not good for the body.

Personally, unless I think I am about to die (once), I have kept my body free of medication.

@AmpBenzScientist

@freemo

Yes, true. I was thinking of many medications and many food additives.

@AmpBenzScientist

@freemo

And then come to the same conclusion about chemicals people put INTO their bodies.

"IP6 is still a fuck. we ran out of IP4."

It is hard to imagine that I took an IPv6 course in 2001, because "it will soon take over, and I need to understand it".

And almost 20 years later (~2019), my ISP at the time provided "dynamic IPv6 addresses", and I went "WTF?! Every device has a reserved IPv6 address on every network!"

@sergeant

Why the pool? There should be some awesome dive spots not too far away. (Haven't been to Thailand for decades, but the whole region is full of them...)

@freemo @mjambon

@freemo

I agree with that definition, but when you combine it with State powers/violence, the crapitalism that we have today rears its ugly head. And even that is better than Socialistic Totalitarianism that arises from the mainstream "alternative". Again, State power is the root of the problems no matter how we organize the economics.

@freemo
I am jealous!

OTOH, I did it more or less for 30 years, between 1986 and 2020.

(-86 to -95 meant "TravelNet" to deliver software on the other side of the planet. Internet was such a liberation.)

@freemo If you ever have chance, try out Virgin's Upper Class. Like First class at Business class prices.

@freemo

I am not sure about it, but my simple conclusion from watching my gay brother's friends.

@freemo
My amateur take; I don't think it is to signal that they are gay, but to make themselves more attractive to some other types or gay men. Speech, mannerism, grooming and fashion in a complete package.

Some women are doing the same thing to attract straight men that appreciate such.

@freemo
The "Doomsdayers" (End of the world on 8 April 2024, for instance) are worse. Flat-Earthers can easily disregard evidence, but "I am alive" on the day after doomsday, should be pretty compelling evidence and hard to dismiss.

@Vincarsi

Difficult to discuss solutions, if the problem can't be properly defined.

@freemo @aeleoglyphic @Radical_EgoCom

@freemo

We on the capitalism side agree on this, but my point was that when socialists talk about capitalism, they mean the crony-crapitalism we have today (where billions of loot...I mean taxes...are handed out to BigCorps), and therefore the subject can't even be discussed in a honest manner.

@aeleoglyphic @Radical_EgoCom @Vincarsi

@freemo

To clarify; "healthy capitalism" is not what the socialist/communists calls "capitalism". We have today a state-induced power structure that breeds off capitalism (unhealthy) for power and control.

What is sickening to me is that said socialists/communists in practice want to get rid of the "good part" (capitalism) from what we have today and keep the "power and control" to micromanage the population to starvation, when the capital runs out.
