But they’re fucking good quality. Anyone can see that. So what’s the problem?

I like Android 'cos I like dicking about with it. Some people don’t want to dick about with their phones, they want to do other stuff that could be more interesting.

How would you deal with armed settlers kicking your family out of your home at gunpoint?

Not by saying “What Hitler did to you will be like a picnic”.

Daft cow

58 Gen X Brit here. Even I know the correct response. It was a popular tune.

Came here to write exactly that! .

One exception would be the “MOAB”, which officially stands for “Massive Ordnance Air Blast”, but is surely unofficially the “Mother Of All Bombs” - a poker at Saddam Hussein’s statement that he would unleash the “Mother of All Wars”.

I’m not a physicist (read "couldn’t do the maths“) but MOND feels closer to an natural, organic explanation than Dark Matter. Are there planets formed from Dark Matter? Are there elements and dark molecular structures?

Please can I have a motorcycle made of it?

What a fucking disgraceful mess.

Your point is a valid one, so I’ll answer it. Initially I did use Google. I was overloaded with a mash-up of sites from which it would have been difficult to resolve right from wrong. As this doesn’t relate to my country I’d have simply moved on.

Instead, I feel much more informed from all the considered, well-written responses which people were kind enough to write here.

This makes sense, thank you for taking the time to explain.

I see, thank you (and to everyone else who responded).

I agree with this. I used nicotine lozenges to wean myself off cigarettes and this was successful.

However, I did notice as a side effect that they helped me concentrate on complex tasks.

So, although I don’t use them daily, I leave a pack lying around just to suck on in the same way I might use a cup of coffee to sharpen up in the morning.

I genuinely believe this does me no harm. I think the debates started to get heated when inhalation is involved.

Thank you. But I’m still not sure I get it. Could you maybe give an example of what kind of lie or fear mongering would make people want to say:

“No, I don’t want the constitution to recognise that there were an indigenous people here before us.”

That seems like an unarguable fact, isn’t it?

I’m sorry, I don’t mean to put you on the spot but since you were kind enough to take the time to give an overview, it makes me hungry for more detail!

I’m sorry, I’m stupid and not up-to-date with this.

Taken at face value, Constitutional Recognition for the indigenous population sounds correct.

So what was wrong with it?

Only the real-life version

I mean, you couldn’t be more right. This is aid-point zero.

This conflict couldn’t be more zany if it tried. Russia will be asking the moon for aid next. At least India have got something up there which Russia could steal, melt down and make into an Arquebus or something.

Ditto. Both my wife and I were heavy smokers and moved to vapes. As soon as I used a vape I thought “this is the solution!” after trying to quit smoking many times for decades.

They really provide 80 to 90% of the satisfaction of a cigarette and take the edge off those moments when you damn well need a ciggie.

After a couple of years of vaping I find it now much easier to do without them for a few days, although I do like one with a beer.

You have to have been on that 10 or 20 year journey of smoking cigarettes to understand how hard they are to put down, and vaping was the tool that got me away from burning the evil tobacco leaf.

I do this and you are completely correct.

How would that work? Nuclear reactors are, AFAIK, not capable of very much beyond getting extremely hot.

Would that heat be used to cause rapid expansion of, for example, a lightweight solid into its gaseous form for propulsion?

Or is there something new up Putin’s short sleeves.

I’m aware that the US proposed (and perhaps tested) the use of continuous, rhythmic nuclear bombs as a method of propulsion for space flight, but abandoned it as too erratic.

Thank you. Your comment/advice has completely validated my switch over to Lemmy.
