I don't really like this take. The death penalty isn't cultural and people who oppose it are free to vocalise it. Singaporean culture is great because it is a unique melting pot of many different cultures, the death penalty is a legal matter and isn't drawn from the composite cultures of the people that live there.

you can't disagree with the results

It's the third hanging this week for drugs offenses so it would seem that the policy isn't completely effective

the people there feel it is a tradeoff they are willing to live with.

They may be willing to live with it, but i wouldn't presume that they are in favour of the policy. Singapore is a one party state and rated a 'flawed democracy' in The Economist democracy index. Frankly, Singaporeans aren't consulted on the matter.

who the fuck are you to tell those people how they should rule their own country?

On a micro level, who the fuck are the authorities of Singapore to take another person's life.

Have been using the Sync reddit app daily for years after paying a couple of quid to remove ads whenever I did that. Felt like a steal then and expensive now so, on balance, I'm comfortable having paid the ad randsome. I feel better knowing it all goes to the developer for his personal efforts.

Just because you are told something it doesn't mean you can rely on it.

It's clear that leaving the EU would mean new treaties between the UK and EU and it is obvious that immigration rules would change. There were many people saying many different things about how they would change, but if he had just tried to apply some logic he should have come to the conclusion that, at best, his right to live in the EU was at risk.

Severance is the show I will always recommend to anyone else that will listen. It's fantastic.

And the UK, anywhere else?

What do I know better?

Haven't they been providing protection services to gold mines in Africa in exchange for mining concessions? I think that it how they are primarily funded now as opposed to being funded only by Russian intelligence agencies.

I'm just regurgitating what I heard on the radio this morning but sounds mercenary like to me.

Everywhere is farther west than England if you start there and keep going west.

Hopefully they develop a way for you to post by voice to Lemmy. It's great to have you on board!

I eat it.. honestly, it is delicious. Slightly bitter and sour whilst adding some nice texture.

The past couple of days was Black Mirror for me. The shift from sci-fi to horror a bit dissappinting for me but still worth the watch.

King Kruel was in live session for 6 music and covered Dean Martin's My Rifle, My Pony and Me which was pretty great and has stuck in my mind.

Good lad

That resonates so much with me at this exact moment!

Does anybody know the reason to move away from technology based storylines and have more paranormal stuff?

It must be hard to come up with the calibre of idea they normally do, and it's their show to run with how they like, but as a Sci fi fan I was a little dissapointed with the move.

Not a major issue as each episode was a good stand alone production.

My sisters one would steal balls from other dogs and spend hours evading you in the park to avoid giving it back. He grew out of it eventually and is generally a lovely boy.

I enjoyed this comment too much to not post my appreciation.

Don't forget prelude!

This could be a slippery slope for me ... I don't even use a torch

Even the best-equipped, best-trained armies expect to lose as much as half of the assault force during a successful breach.>

From the article. Seems like this level of loss is expected?

It might be out of the way for most people but Norwood Park next to Crystal Palace is a gem. Big park with amazing views of Central (think Primrose Hill but southern aspect) and ridiculously quiet, even on a lovely day.
