What even is this face? I agree that this is the face they make but what emotion is this suggesting?

Vapes have cotton inside them, used to wick the vape fluid into the heating coil. The heating coil surrounds the cotton. Ripping a fat bong hit then gets transformed into ripping fat cotton. I guess.

They are playing Civilization with spy units. All the direct armies in the world don't matter if the damage is being done by like 50 people and a bunch of bot accounts.

The soundtrack to Donkey Kong Country is influenced by jungle music. It was a type of club music related to electronic and house music in Britain.

He was the best
I know he is a gamer and played The Witcher 3 extensively. I think he must have played that game in full costume at least once, like some kind of video game / tv / book / real life inception.

This could be a long ride
The utilitarian framework of ethics provides an answer in this specific case, if you make an assumption about the level of suffering the people will endure while being run over by the train. If the suffering of the one man when he gets hit by the train is equal to the suffering to any one of the five men when they get hit by the train, then is makes no difference that the one man will not die. Utilitarianism states that the greatest good is human pleasure, and the greatest bad is human suffering. In this case, the one man being immortal increases his capacity to suffer, while the five men can only experience the suffering once. This means that the one man will experience human suffering equal to the five men after five cycles of the tram, which will take 50 seconds. If I wasn't sure that I could break the chain and free the one man within 50 seconds, then the correct course of action is to let the five men die because human suffering will be greater overall for this system after 50 seconds, at the cost of one unit every ten seconds. If the one man could be sedated and experience no pain until the chains could be cut, then we are effectively performing a kind of surgery on the one man, and long periods of sedation would be justified while his chains are being cut.

At first I thought this was a 3d printer with layer lines based on the colors. I was having a real, "Jesus on a piece of toast," moment before seeing which community this was. Nice art, I like it.

You must tell me, please!
The Epstein island was financed by Russia through Israel. The whole thing serves the dual purpose of blackmailing people who did not want the files released and damaging non-Russian nations when it got released. Trump is a Russian asset. Tulsi Gabbard, the Director of National Intelligence, is a Russian asset. Russia wants more authoritarian states and less liberally democratic states in the world. I assume that Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, and anyone else that were in the files are also either direct assets or pawns for Russia. This wasn't a weird cult that sprang up from nowhere. This was a concerted politically motivated honeypot. The irony to me is that the red scare of the cold war resulted in anti-communist thought in America, and now that very same anti-communist thought is being used to help Russia! We should be having another red scare now about Russia.

"FOSS" and "GNU Linux" do *not* automatically mean "for the community" or "for human rights"
I think that you may enjoy learning about free software. It is the F in FOSS. Free software means that the users have the freedom to run, edit, contribute to, and share the software. The FSF version of free software is more based on liberty instead of the open source version which is more based on efficiency and commercial use. The FSF is ahead of the curve when it comes to respecting users of software. Some links to help differentiate free software from open source software: https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-software-even-more-important.html We will always be having these types of conversations while we subscribe to the open source view. Another link: https://www.goodwinlaw.com/en/insights/publications/2024/09/insights-practices-moving-away-from-open-source-trends-in-licensing Thanks to the software being on the GPL, any software that is GPL including Linux will be able to be remodified by downstream contributors to remove the area age verification requirement. Keep in mind that large distribution maintainers have a large target painted on their back and they might not be able to legally have the resources to contend with their operating system being used without age verification. I understand the urge to feel frustrated at free software and open source software but keep in mind that proprietary software already has these types of controls built in. We have to make sure that we compare open source software to its alternative, not to perfection, the alternative being proprietary software. Microsoft does not care at all and already has age verification built into all their stuff. This is going to be a long slow slide into totalitarian fascism and resistance might not look as rigid as we would all like, but I am certain that everyone is doing what they can within their power. There will always be hackers and people who want freedom for the people who use software or any other product. No one wants to be owned by those that own the means of production, period.
