Delivery people here don't wait for you to answer the door. They set it on your doorstep, knock, and are gone before you even open the door. I lost track of the number of times I've left for work having to step over hours-old delivery I wasn't even awake for, to the point I put a sign on my door to recheck the address before delivery.

Easier said than done, considering they can track anything we put up as well as we track what they put up, and they can move their satellites to deny the soft docking that would require.

what if we just "accidentally" destroy a few of Russia's satellites they are using in their unjust war with Ukraine? then just blame it on the space force being new and working out all the details
Again, Kessler syndrome. The debris from taking out one satellite is almost certain to take out others that weren't intended as targets - possibly months or years after the first satellite was destroyed.

About 60% of the satellites in orbit are ours, so most of the collateral damage would likely be to our satellites.

I can't remember the exact details but, I posted the meme saying: 'Well I'm eleven so stfu'. I got a mod saying no underage persons were allowed in the site. It was an obvious joke and I appealed. I didn't know it was that easy to get modded. I always wondered if anyone posted one of those 'This person got suspended' topics for me. It was probably four years ago.
The problem there is that the site can get in serious legal trouble for knowingly allowing a child under the age of 13 to have an account.

I dunno what else to say, it was deleted for offensive content and it was me saying "bro, you said this *QUE DIRECT QUOTE OF OFFENSIVE CONTENT*, don't be sanctimonious on me", doubt calling people sanctimonious is grounds for suspension or even offensive.
Depends on how offensive it actually was, and if your post acknowledged how offensive it was. Even more so if you were the one that marked the content you quoted, although I don't know if mods can see who marked a post any more. There are certain things that, yes, even if you quoted it you should be at least warned.

Got slapped with a suspension nearly a year ago in a post where I went wtf and expressed disbelief at some moddable stuff said by some schmuck, but I made the mistake of direct quoting instead of making it a blank quote or going

Therefore expunging all offensive material in the process. So as a result my post was deemed offensive, and I went to the gulag for a bit.
I thought they stopped moderating for that sort of thing. I mean, there's at least two topics today that have people quoting the post someone got suspended for posting.

ScazarMeltex posted...
Russia a perfect example here. The October Revolution happened and ended the Tsar's reign. The civil war came later, after the different factions couldn't agree on what to replace the monarchy with.
The February Revolution ended the Tsar's reign; the October Revolution ousted the interim Provisional Government which had taken over after the Tsar, and that kicked off the civil war.

On topic: in terms of violent revolutions as opposed to cultural or industrial revolutions, I'd say the difference is the time scale. A revolution that succeeds (or fails) quickly doesn't get called a civil war unless it's particularly bloody; a revolution that drags on and involves the entire country is called a civil war.

I'm pretty sure that Sydney one is a shoop, a boat that size going under the bridge would be front page news, extremely out of the ordinary as it's a very busy waterway and it would've stopped the ferries (and maybe the trains, but in saying that even a light breeze stops sydney trains from operating), and it only has a 49m clearance (and lower depending on the time of day and weather)
Considering the boat in the picture hasn't even been completed yet, it's probably an "artist's rendition" for publicity.

Please don't project your feelings onto me. If I were arguing on my own behalf I'd be content to say "it looks better and women prefer it," and that alone is enough for me to be happy. I'm arguing in favor of all children being circumcised for medical reasons, because there's a substantial case to be made there as well.
I'm not projecting shit, your motivation for sticking with such ridiculous arguments against all evidence is obvious. The best way to sum this up is:

No national or international medical organization recommends routine circumcision.

Your dogmatic approach and reliance on deflection do not disguise the fact that you have nothing but a personal and emotional preference for circumcision, and that is no justification for advocating the practice on those who cannot yet choose for themselves.
It's literally all cope. If he admits defeat he'll have to consider that he was subjected to an unnecessary and mildly dangerous surgery without his consent as an infant, and cognitive dissonance won't let him do that.

The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) first acknowledged that there was no medical justification for routine circumcision in 1971. Last year, the AAP reaffirmed that it does not recommend routine circumcision. The American Medical Association concurred this year, calling routine circumcision non-therapeutic. No national or international medical organization recommends routine circumcision.

My issue is that I don't know how hamas can sabotage anything if it doesn't have the political wherewithal or backing to sabotage anything.

Under a free Palestine, a two-state solution, hamas ceases to exist as any kind of legit (or even pretending to legitimacy) political authority, and will only be a fractured terrorist cell. A shadow of its former self. It's raison d'etre, to free Palestine from Israeli oppression and be sovereign, ceases to exist, and, as a result, so does hamas.

I don't know man. I think a free Palestine is a Palestine that doesn't need, and won't tolerate anymore, hamas.
They're still going to be funded and supplied by Iran. Palestinians aren't going to get rid of them any more than the Israelis are, all it will do is widen their target selection.
