Integrated 3rd generation hardware:

When the PS5 finally contains (integrated) a tiny chip (hardware) which allows you to play PS2 (maybe 3rd gen?) games.

You dont take the water from one place. Take 1/3 from desalination in California, 1/3 from the Mississippi, 1/3 from the great lakes, and some to spare from somewhere else. And punch whoever opposes you with money.

You have nation-spanning networks for things like gas, so why not water? Because the pipes are bigger?

Maybe the real solution is for humans to get out of dodge and wherever else they are not meant to live.

I dont quite remember exactly but Gordon always uses a big one, a pairing knife and a flexible one for fish and filet. ( ah I found something, different from memory but what does that count? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-av6cz9upO0 he uses: carving, chopping and a large serated knife)

Metal is just metal if its shaped right and sharpened it will do its job. The only reason for a modern person to get those expensive katakana folded steel knives is to look cool.

The only reason the tradition even exists in the first place is that the ore and smelting techniques of the japanese islands made them try to purify the metal through repeated folding and heating.

Meanwhile in european Forgecraft the temperatures got higher so that even low-quality ore could be fully smelted, drastically improving metal quality, allowing for faster forging.

The faster forging has another benefit, the hot metal is in contact with air for a shorter time, so it oxidizes less and looses less carbon, and it needs to spend less time being re-heated in the forge (potentially re-introducin unwanted carbon), both contribute to the final steel being of a better quality. Because its just easier to get the carbon distribution right.

Hard, nearly brittle high-carbon steel on the cutting edge(s), low carbon, flexible steel on the spine of the sword/knife. Where is that with folded steel? That nearly impossible to do! While you could just put two blocks of the right steels together and hammer into shape and then sharpen.

So many people do these bogus "experiences" with these beautiful japanese knive sets, where the only feature for cooking is that it has been adequately sharpened.

A good chef need only 3 knives. ~ Gordon Ramsey

A knife is only a sharp, flat piece of metal. ~ me

You dont need knive-sets, no need for japanese foulded metal. ~ Huggbees

Just sharpen your knife and get rid of it if it aint good. ~ me

The thing is for a long time TV stuff used to be produced, aired and then it was gone.

Some things also were saved, onto the video rolls of the time, which at some point randomly begins to deteriorate into Vinegar and other stuff, the vinegar stinks and breaks apart the remaining parts of the roll.

Also some poeple saved the episodes on their VHS at home, however the next week it would just overwritten again with new content.

So basically it is a wonder that there even are that many episodes and it was a giant community effort mostly to gather those we have.

Or maybe I'm just speaking out of my ass, but this is the internet, how would you know?

on Home Ownership · c/politicalmemes · 0 pts · 215d

In China, the government leases land to people for up to 99 years (it must be paid for), after that they get it back for free. It can also be reclaimed by various other, often forceful means. This does not classify as ownership.

At least one stat on this infographic is wrong. But this is the internet, I shouldnt expect anything.

Which hose "on the right"? The one furthes away from the camera?

I cannot see there, because it is hidden by shadows and leaves, but I'm sure the locals havent figured out how to build and maintain a house on a cliff.

Currently, as it stand the only greater cultural relevance for the word Malarchy is that it Rhymes with and sounds like a worse version of anarchism. Which is a good start. Now people need to use it instead of some other words that are forgotten in a week.

I think I wrote my comment before you edited your post, but still i do not quite understand what malarchy means.

Etymology says: "bad" & "rule", so is it bad to rule, bad rulings, bad rulers...

You also hinted on deception by the rulers being a core point of this thing you are trying to establish.

"My 10000 quotes but no explanation" is perhaps a bit mean. Im not gonna sugarcoat it and just say it straight: Part 1) i dont like you using big words and not defining big words clearly. That is the essence of any thinker establishing a new idea, they are able to provide a new interpretation, a new concept with wings to fly. You however have taken malarky as a metaphorical chicklet (concept) and set it before the metaphorical wolf (collective consiousness / public / critics & importantly people who have never heard of or even thought of what you mean with malarchy.)

Part 2) some big-dicked philosopher has said a sentence once. Now what? You know the sentence? "A good quote can speak a thousand words, when embedded in a thousand words saying the same thing" - me

You need to embed quotes in context, who was the speaker? Marx, no need to define it, Kropotkin maybe a bit. Errico Malatesta? David Graebor? Sorry to show off my unknowing, but i have no-idea who these people are or could be, i dont know what they stand for, what or who they are relevant to...

For all i know they could be a monkey in a trenchcoat with a Hakenkreuz typing random wordstrings on a typewriter. Yes i presume it falls upon me to need to do work and learn about these people... But its much easier to not do this, to not spend the effort to just forget about this whole thing, delete my phone and go into the cold night all alone.

Back to my quote, you need to make a quote and the text live together, to say the same thing, even when you are actually disproving it or going on about something different. Show how a principal established by a great big-dicjed philosopher applies to this or that case, or where they fail. Establish connection. Make it make sense. What am I talking about?

You posted a webcomic about someone uncovering the truth that someone was hiding "Malarchy" underneath Anarchy. (Like a drug den underneath a laundry washing place. -> metaphors, i forced myself to use them, until they come naturally) then you appended a bunch of quotes, because you thought they fit. But you didnt expand upon that or them. You just planted them there, and frankly i must admit, i havent even read them, i just got upset.

But on the other hand I was already confused trying to read the comic, then understanding the text, questioning whether what was said had any coherence in and of itself... But first of i had to comprehend the symbol, when I try to picture it in my mind, i see the Purple W standing for Wario with a few purple Lines thrown in. Not very memorable, but confusing.


But something scratches at the back of my brain, now after spending too much time than simple mindless scrolling would allow, i must say, there is some kind of series or other visual media where this concept was explored before. I however do not remember yet where... (Tributes of Bread maybe?)

Malarchy: An interpretation of governance where a governing bodies corruption leads it to invite harm upon its subjects, incite violence amongst them, in order to strengthen its own legitimacy or power.

Hows that for a working definition?

But a sticker over another sticker in the real world is sort of like a grafitti over another. The second person disagrees with the first person and wants their own message to superimpose and drown out whatever was originally there.

You can post 10000 quotes but not just tell us what you mean with "Malarchy"?

Torrenting has inherent dangers, downloading something and executing it on your Computer can place any number or variation of viruses on your system.

It is nice to have an uploader you trust, as once a torrent is out and proven safe, it remains safe. But you could also just fake being any uploader and nobody could prove otherwise, until no one seeds the infected torrent anymore.
