This... Feels worse.

Much worse.

Iraq and Afghanistan were not, at the time, nuclear powers.

Iraq had no real allies in the region.

Afghanistan was also relatively isolated.

That's not the case with Lebanon. As proxy for Iran. A friend of Russia. A friend of north Korea. A friend of China.

Iran won't just shoot some rockets.

As a one time noob I may have done this once or more.

To get one thing working I borked everything.

Understanding permissions is pretty basic. But understanding permission requirements for system and user apps and their config and dirs can be a bit overwhelming at first.

Thinking a little change to make your life simpler will break something else doesn't always register immediately.

Shit, even recently, wondering why my SSH keys were being refused and realising that somehow i set my private keys world readable.

Thank god SSH checks file and dir permission.

Looks like a drafting square to be more specific.

For the old school draftsman working with pencil on a table.

As someone who has experienced a lifetime of back issues, absolutely.

Your pain will cause you to find a posture which doesn't hurt. That's probably not the best posture. That will lead to more pain to worse posture to worse pain.etc.

I did some physiotherapy somewhat recently. Traction was the best thing ever. Combined with exercise/physio routine and an awareness of posture, I felt better than I ever had.

It can be very challenging after a life of bad posture. Your body won't like it at first. But keeping at it will produce wonderful results.

Assuming the pain is musculoskeletal and not something more serious.

Paging Pepperridge ~~mint~~ Farms.

Remember when trump said if he won they'd never have to vote again?

The Purge has been central to Q Anon.

It was supposed to happen 4 years ago but trump lost.

Had he won, the trucker convoy would have been a part of it.

(I was witness to some chatter and had this directly communicated to me.)

Also, see: the turner diaries a book. A horrible violent racist book. There's a theme throughout.

"The day of the gun and rope"

One of the organisers of the convoy in Canada loved using the phrase, "day of the rope" in reference to hanging our prime minister. (Also see "diagolon")

The threepers/ 3 percenters ara group that believe it would take 3% of the population to bring about an ethno state.

They operate in Canada and the us and were VERY visible in Ottawa.

Thanks.

I use it mainly for DNS and blocking ip's, ipv6, and hosts. Only a few apps are routed through tor.

Hey, you may not know this, but the massive swing worldwide towards these ultra right governments is because one of our former prime ministers is responsible.

Canada's Stephen Harper was integral in getting orban elected.

Harper operates a group called the IDU. Idu.org

Here's Harper (to the left of orban ~~'s left~~ ) and orban (center).
