Enjoy watching the genocide of your people, you'll be next, so instead of crying crocodile tears why don't you do something PROACTIVE about it.

All the information is on the task card, you have two months, your time starts now.

America: where young people are coddled until they're 18 then it's either sell your body, sell your soul, or both multiple times over just to survive.

That moment when you take a drag of your Blue Raspberry vape and the dosimeter next to you maxes out.

Taste: slightly metallic, not great, not terrible.

So a nucler reactor is just a kettle with an extra spicy heating element?

The number of soldiers isn't the issue. The two issues are the civilian casualties would be unacceptable for SK and the NK civilians would halt progress as they'd need support from the SK army.

The other one is that China would almost certainly invade from the north because NK is a buffer state between it and SK, a US ally.

Well they did say "Your body, my choice". I wonder how they'd react if it was their body and someone else's choice?

Agreed, it comes off as petulant and is really grating when fellow supporters get all smarmy when said individual/group doesn't immediately adopt the next thing in progressive politics the nanosecond it enters public discussion.

So about €3.50?

Oi! Get out of my headspace, I'm already trying to build confidence without overinflating my Ego and he doesn't need your enabling.

(I should stress, this is joke, good meme OP)

Yep. Ghosts in Machines are real.

I have witnessed it first hand multiple times.

At university there was an old 1st gen Makerbot 3D printer and if you took away one of it's prints that were displayed around it, all of your prints would fail, even if you replaced it the printer held a grudge. And never EVER say a 100% certainty statement that the print would succeed like "it is printing ok, it will be finished in an hour". Only say things like "the print is doing ok so far".

The electronics lab was throwing out five old Cathode Ray Oscilloscopes so our little maker group took them in and two were working fine. The other three weren't displaying the trace on the screen. One of our members, a chap from Romania who in his youth spent his time fixing old TVs in his home country, said to let him have a look. I swear down he plugged them in, leant his ear against it, said to the scopes "shh it's ok, we'll look after you", and gave them gentle taps on top just behind the screen, and all three jumped back into life in perfect calibration.

And finally, my girlfriend at the time had a 1st gen iPod that would, at the most inopportune moments randomly wake itself up, play a few seconds of a random song, then shut itself down.
