Oh but we are here to answer your stupid questions?
Yes… that’s the entire point of this community.
why the fuck are you interested in the stupid rules of a barbaric uncivilized psychopathic society?
Because knowledge and curiosity leads to personal development. You should try it.
It is a bit funny though that you hate the US this much but still use their spelling of words. 👌
That’s pretty neat. Thanks
And i assume pulling the sword out would be “brandishing a weapon”
I do find it hilarious that you might be allowed to openly carry a firearm, but a bow with arrows, that’s where we draw the line!
Perhaps in the context of that bow and arrow is silent? Where as you cannot discharge a firearm without anyone knowing.
Because i specifically asked about open carry states. And you start talking about the “rest of the world”.
We’re not here to debate or discuss your personal opinions.
What part of “open carry states” confused you? I don’t live in the US, not that it matters. I was curious about it.
Interesting. Because i was just thinking, an arrow knocked but undrawn, how is that any different from having a gun in your holster, bullet in the chamber.
Knives i get, because of the concealment issue. But an actual sword worn on the hip in a scabard. It’s not concealed. And I’d argue far less dangerous than a gun.
Not that rules or laws are under obligation to make sense, unfortunately.
There is no need for an excuse. Article 5 dictates members must help. But it does not dictate how. And members have a fair bit of discretion when it comes to how they assist.
Trump is upset that NATO didn’t help with Iran. And will “help” NATO the same way NATO “helped” him. He’ll be open about that without shame.
Intellectuals are always the first people to be targeted. An educated population is a dangerous population. They might have their own thoughts and ideas. Can’t have that
In this case, it’s just a filter of trigger words and phrases that flag certain messages.
Something we’ve been able to do since at least 1971 if someone wanted to. So it’s not that new either.
We’ve “always” been capable of it. But yes. It is sobering to see that a company now actively does it.
WW2 started over 80 years ago. And they had the technology to spy on electronic communication then.
You don’t know they spied on electronic communication during WW2? That’s why it’s called wire-tap… you’d literally tap into the wire and read the signal
It’s been technologically possible for well over 80 years…
I’m gonna take a shot at what’s going on. They get a list of people whose visa has expired. That list doesn’t state if it has been renewed or if the holder have another type of visa.
It’s gross incompetence or malice, or both. All they care about is filling their quota.
The words you need to “know” to code, compared to what you need to know to communicate effectively, are but a promille.
He also specifically said “learn to code”. Beginners often struggle with the concept of a loop, let alone trying to import a bunch of libraries
Coding is all done in the language of the code… if, and, or, for, include, except, etc. It’s not exactly a vast array of words you need to know to be able to code.
Also, I can only speak for Sweden, but I started learning english in third grade. These days they start in kindergarten. Basic stuff, days of the week, 1 through 10. But still.
Funny thing about that. Someone here in Sweden emailed the police if it was legal to own a trebuchet or if you needed a weapons liscense for it. (The police issue weapon licenses)
The response was that of course no one has ever tried, so there is no formal ruling. But crossbows require a weapons license while bows do not. Because the crossbow can store the energy. So leaning on that reasoning. It would probably require a license.
But I love that the question was asked to our police, and that they gave a serious and thorough answer.
So, technically. As long as you’re not breaking any traffic related laws. It is not illegal to mount a trebuchet on a roadworthy wagon and tow it behind your car.
