What a cutie :)

I certainly agree this does not address the root issue, and it does normalize this technology for adresssing social issues and can then be applied to places where its more harmful like crime- And also I think taken on its own merits this is a good intervention to exist for suicide prevention specifically (though I think its valid to not take it purely on its own merits if one is concerned about the adoption of surveillance tech)

I do want structural solutions though. But that requires rebuilding society in the image of treating humans better, better work and environmental conditions, rethinking healthcare (at least here in the US, no idea how things are in Korea), and about a million other things

And I do think the normalization of surveillance infrastructure should be taken seriously. Especially with the present global rise of authoritarianism

Thank you for explaining. This is a good post

What does manumitted mean?

What an absolutely goofy word. Thanks for teaching me something!

My understanding is that the restriction comes from the great depression, when the government was worried about people poaching deer and decimating the population by hunting more than was allowed

And then we just never got rid of the exception.

Similar to how short rifles were restricted to create additional charges for bootleggers transporting alcohol during the prohibition, since being in a vehicle really benefits from having a shorter gun so bootleggers would cut length off their barrels so they could more easily handle their guns in the vehicle

How is that not assault with a deadly weapon?

Is this actually shitpost? (I dont know anything about curling or what’s happening in the Olympics 😅 did Canada actually cheat or is it a joke?)

Knockoff toys specifically is such a fun premise for a wiki

Is it a known thing that they were dishonest about speaking to a lawyer with that situation?

I’ve been meaning to change instances and find a new home, if it’s known that they lied or mislead their users thats something I’d love to know more about

I mean, I’m not a big fan of the carsal justice system, I don’t think sending this 80 year old woman to die in prison will somehow bring back the dead, but not taking away her license is kinda unreal

A no contest rather than guilty pleas and moving assets feel like they may be things she was advised to do by her lawyer but do feel additionally gross.

The culmination of it all definitely does not feel like justice. Though people in the comments here calling for her to die in prison probably ought to do some self reflection on how much they’ve bought into the notion that harming those who have done wrong somehow makes society or victims better off. Our criminal justice system sucks ass, institutional retribution has never been “justice” either.

What a fucking depressing story and miscarriage of justice.

While it is good to have empathy and understanding for less technical folks, OP may be in a better position to know what is realistic for their family and level of support they can provide

I am both horrorfied and delighted by this, thank you

Interesting little piece of history, thanks for sharing

Thanks for posting this :)

I can’t get to the store very often for medical reasons so I’d been looking for ways to eat more fresh veg that dont go bad immediately. I’ll have to check out some of the recipes mentioned

I do like their idea of salads that dont just use delicate leafy stuff. Does feel like an odd subject to write a whole article about though, but no reason not to of you’re an article writer I suppose lol

I have limited ability to get to the store regularly so more salads with ingredients that dont go bad immediately would be really nice, I’ll have to check out some of the recipes they mention

This is cool as fuck, thanks for sharing! I neither code nor am learning mandarin, but I hope you get some more folks involved who can contribute too :)

It might require posting places other than the fediverse though, I’m not sure this is a wide enough net to find folks who can get involved

Anyone know if there are any good places online to share foss projects you’re hoping to build with more people?

they ask their daughters to pretend to pray so that the men in the family, especially the husband or the brothers of that child, won’t know that she is of fertile age now. Because as soon as they know that the girl has started menstruating, they’re going to pull her out of the school, if she goes there, and they’re going to marry her off to a man double or thrice her age. And that is something we have seen so often. It just breaks my heart. Mothers are usually very helpless in these situations. The link to child marriage contributes to the secrecy around periods and makes it an extremely isolating experience.

As a guy I hadn’t really made that connection to how menstruation would become so stigmatized. Thats gutwrenching…

Yeah, I have a circadian rhythm disorder and my first thought was “oh, somrthing I might actually be able to do!”. But then again I also have ADHD and no internal sense of time so it’d be hard to show up at the right time 😅

Glad you got it working!
