I’m sorry.

cluster munitions are illegal

Well, depends on the country. For example, if you are in Ukraine or russia (and surprisingly, Finland) they are legal.

Phew, luckily I’m not being abused by the US!

I dunno about yours but mine isnt. Its not perfect but its not too bad at all.

You are? Thats cool. I’m a top.

My country is picking nobody though

I’m smoking weed and not killing people in other countries.

I must have missed the call up for service. Along with the rest of the country.

Sure, but I wouldnt think it will dominate the news for that long. But like I said, I know nothing.

Really? A extremely old and frail man dies and it will dominate the news for a week? I predict 0.5-1 days of full headlines about it, the next day some memorials and tributes, third day maybe some deep dive analysis of his work and then not much until the funeral.

I’m, of course, talking out of ignorance. I’m not american and dont know much about Carter but based on how stuff went in my country when a old and beloved ex-president died, there was a few days of tributes etc. Then the funeral and thats it.

I didnt have to sign up since its automatic and required for all males where I am from. But still, my country hasnt and will not ask me to go kill hels angles in other countries.

They havent done that either. And at the moment it looks quite improbable for them to do so.

I dunno about you but the state that I live in has never asked me to go kill hells angels because they gave me some social care money at one point.

Ehh, maybe readjust a bit. Do you really think that the prosecutors are even aware of your comment, this thread, or even lemmy? They probably have more important stuff to do than downvote a comment in a 12 comment thread in a small social media platform.

They’ll read this as 25% less arrests = 25% more people not arrested and are able to make it trough.

Yeah no mosquitoes in the winter.

We have a bit over hundred thousand lakes, a ton of ponds and swamps everywhere. So once the weather is warm enough, basically the whole country becomes a breeding pool for those little bastards.

No jep. Taitaa jäädä vaeltelut aika vähälle. Noh, aina sitä voi syssyllä mennä

In essence, this situation leaves the USA as the sole gas supplier.

No it doesnt. Norway, middle east etc exsist.

I’d prefer to buy affordable gas from Russia.

And I prefer buying gas from anywhere else than russia, regardless of the price.

But anyway, since you made that pretty little list, can you explain to me how the korean war, bay of pigs and kosovo were a “war for oil”?

I have started many cars that have sat multiple years. It depends how they were stored. Outside with no maintanence? Yeah good luck with that. Inside with regural turn overs and other maintanence? No problems.

This is anecdotal, hearsay and probably not true, but a digger driver once told me that the reason theres so many chinese diggers and other heavy equipment over here these days is that if you are a chinese company and want to buy 1 western machine, you need to buy 10 locally manufactured ones and keep them for x amount of years.

So according to this dude the chinese companies would buy like a 100 local diggers and 10 western ones, park the locally produced ones in a storage until the x amount of years have passed and then sell them to the west.

Again, this was according to just some dude who digs holes in the ground. No idea if its actually true, if anyone knows I’d be interested to hear whats the reality.

Well maybe a bit. But it also does other things. Like sanction russia.

I dont care if the US gets richer if the reason is russia getting poorer. But you care. So, why do you imply its bad that US economy might grow a bit?
