Oh no! I can’t unsee it now!

I’ve been pirating since Napster, never have hidden shit. It’s usually not a crime, except in America it seems, to download content, or even share it freely. What is a crime is to make a business distributing pirated content.

I’m not sure it’s possible to bankrupt a city like LA, they can go into massive debt and you and your children will end up paying it. They can also take the money from elsewhere in the budget: a shepherd will stop feeding the sheep but not the dogs.

Thank you!

Do you have a bit of info on these Linux mobile OSs? The FP5 didn’t convince me as a main phone when I needed a new one last year, but if it can take a real Linux distro it could be a cool toy.

What mistakes? Everything’s come out perfectly according to their plan.

No amount of primaries can solve it either, imo. The problem is parties. One party, two parties, many parties… they all end corrupt. A politician loyalty is not to the voters, or the people, or country. It is first and most to the party, because the party put them in that place, and it can take them away if they don’t stay on their lane. Parties can be, and so most have been, easily infiltrated and corrupted since money is what wins elections.

It is not a matter of more or less aggressive, some materials dissolve more easily in one type of solvent than in others. You can try, dissolving a teaspoon of salt in water is much easier than in oil. Have you ever eaten chocolate or drunk water while chewing bubblegum? Here the opposite happens, the fats in the chocolate dissolve the bubblegum rubber and make it softer while water doesn’t, it just chills it which makes it firmer.

Now plastic, rubber, or paints, finishings… can be many different things. IPA is safe to use on natural rubber while oils will make it swell and degrade, or even melt it. But most rubbers are synthetic, basically rubbery plastic. These plastics and other engineered materials can have all kind of different properties, while looking exactly the same. So the only thing you can do, other than research on that particular material and solvent, is trying it on a safer or hidden part of the thing.

In my experience: oil isn’t good on most rubbers, IPA is ok. For metals (iron, steel, mechanical parts…), contrary to you I usually advise to clean them with oil/grease, alcohol is appropriate if you don’t want it to be oily, only in rust resistant metals. Consumer/industrial products paints and finishings are usually fine with both ipa and oil if applied swiftly and dried quickly– acetone, kerosene, toluene… will strip them away probably. For wood, almost everything will fuck it up.

money, the copyright and the politics

Of course, the things that haven’t affected the internet or haven’t been affected by it at all.

Had to take a look at it and… nope. It seems clearOS is a linux (or you know gnu plus linux) distro, but clearOS mobile is android.

I see people all the time who seem to go overboard

I don’t have an answer to the question, but wanting to point out that ‘overboard’ here is highly subjective. For example, from my (poor person’s) point of view, I would consider five plastic surgeries for a young lad like yourself way overboard.

I think op doesn’t mean ‘first wive’ as in ex-wife.

No thanks, I’m still full from lunch.

That rouge one droid: ‘You’re being appreciated. Please, do not resist.’

The other commenter gave you the right answer already. But I meant ‘in practice’ literally, as in, if the sexuality of someone matters to decide your course of action, like flirting with them or introducing a friend, they basically mean the same.

Now if you wanted to get technical, pansexual people are technically bisexual (?). Pansexuality would be a special case of bisexuality in which the attraction is equal across the entire gender spectrum.

But as rarWars said it’s hard to put identity into strict rigid definitions. If you think it too hard this model means that every sexuality is just a special case of bisexuality as well, ace is a special case of pan…

‘Destroying’ money, either physically burning banknotes or just setting some numbers to a lower value in a digital ledger, does not remove value from the economy. When you create money, usually through debt, it takes its value from the currency that already exists. Money is also destroyed all the time through the payment of debt but not as fast as it’s created, that’s why its value mostly goes down (prices mostly go up): Money printer goes BRRRRRRRRR, money burner goes brrr.

What matters for an economy, and therefore the value of its currency, is the value they create–simply put, how much resources they exploit and how efficiently. The most important resource (in my opinion at least) is people.

So if you want to remove value from an economy you have to take those resources away, or make them hard or impossible to exploit efficiently by them, or make them obsolete…
