I guess the idea is that humanoid robots ideally require no adjustment to the factory, they can just use the tools made for human workers.

I’m feeling we’ll end up going over it whether we row or not.

When the USSR came to Hungary, they literally exhausted the syphilis medicine supply of the country for two years with the amount of rape, and the country has had collective PTSD from it for generations.

I’m sure others can bring up other countries, I’m more familiar and am more in touch with the culture of specifically Hungary. It is widely researched and not debated actually that it was so bad, suicides and misogyny spiked in the aftermath, as the people who couldn’t defend their loved ones from often repeated often gang rape either committed suicide, or just internalised that “rape is not so bad” to cope.

600 thousand people were also kidnapped (from a country of less than 10 million) and forced into labour camps for decades, with a third never coming home. This also specifically targeted the local German-Hungarian population (which had nothing to do with Germany, it was a diaspora dating back long into medieval times), so it can also qualify as genocide.

There were also examples of brutal torture, keeping people in cells small enough they couldn’t even sit down, and so on. Had nothing to do with communism, some of the direst things were actually done against communists who wanted to be free from Soviet occupation. It was pure Russian imperialism.

And truth be told, we got off easy compared to some other countries.

And finally, colonialism being “western” in an inherently racist way to view the world. East Asian empires also had colonies, so did most empires around the world.

In case it’s not just a joke, basically if you press the entire pedal, that’s rudder, and if you push with your toes and “rotate” the pedal forwards, that’s the wheel brake. If you apply the wheel brake, your ankle stays in the same spot, but your foot tilts forward.

At least that’s how it is in most planes, I’ve never flown a 737, only small ones and an A321 simulator.

In Hungarian, to pull a woman is in fact slang meaning to have sex with her.

Simple words are usually those that stayed with a language the longest.

Hungarian also has a very high percentage of loanwords, and a lot of those very old ancient non-compound non-calque non-loanwords are single syllable.

Like:

Horse = Ló
Road = Út
Bridge = Híd
Army = Had
Herd of horses = Mén

We took that into Hungarian

Fog = Tooth
Kerék = Wheel
Fogaskerék = Toothywheel = Cog

(at foot pedals) “Push both to brake (after you land), push one or the other to turn”

Doesn’t the 737 have toe brakes?

I mean in the current dictatorships, where it’s a dictatorship of the bourgeoisie by Marxist terms, it is usually one dictator and the setup is fairly hierarchical.

Why is it called a dictatorship then?

without ever having colonies or engaging in imperialism

That’s only because the USSR lobbied hard in the UN so that colonialism is defined as having overseas colonies. The “near abroad” is/was a colonial empire.

The USSR was definitely imperialistic, see Hungary 1956, where it crushed a revolution which was not against communism, the revolutionaries were in fact communists, they just wanted to be free of Soviet occupation.

Not debating the accomplishments of the USSR though, it was definitely and improvement on the Russian Empire.

Well, in the USSR it was Ukrainians. Every authoritarian system find its outgroups.

US style open corruption is illegal in the UK and the EU isn’t it?

That said I don’t trust them, I’m just saying if we want to rail against the thing, we should know exactly what the thing is.

Anecdotally, ProtonVPN’s servers have had a jump in usage percentage since this shit started, particularly in the Netherlands.

I guess the trusted processor would be the state authority that already has all your data.

That said, I think it’s a solution looking for a problem. IDC if 14 year olds jack off to Pornhub, I rather care about 54 year olds being swindled by Meta to destroy our democracy. What did we do after Cambridge Analytica?

Protestors stealing a tank and driving it out of a museum into the crowd (nobody got hurt) during the 2006 protests that were the foundation to the Orbán regime.

I got sucked into the two Pathfinder games they made, I want to wait out Rogue Trader’s last DLC before playing it

nerdy space games

What nerdy space games?

Or start stealing more expensive shit.

An open mind is like a fortress with its gates unbarred and unguarded.

Read the whole comment, it’s sarcasm
