Yeah -okay. Bye.

What a pointless question. They haven’t even been in the war long enough that a tour of duty would end so I wouldn’t expect them to be returning yet. But that doesn’t mean nobody will ever return.

I believe you answered your own question.

Neither you nor I have any idea what the accurate casualty rates and combat stats for NK are. But any army that heads to war comes back with some experience in waging war.

Probably is. I was thinking that with laws they have to be “more general” and that maybe there would be something similar that applied to government employment requirements… I’m starting to think that there probably isn’t.

You’re so right.

I didn’t make a point. I asked a question…

GRRR ANGRY RESPONSE MISREADING THE ORIGINAL MESSAGE GRRRR!

Buddy - I’m just wondering if it will hold up to challenges. Back the fuck off.

It feels dangerously like it’s targeting specific people though. Like “all felons” vs. “all felons named Dave”. I don’t know what the exact order is or what the laws say though.

Right energy, but I’d like to hear legal analysis of this. I’m not sure this is legal.

We laugh, but North Korea is getting itself combat experienced soldiers.

You can see why they paid out $56,000,000,000 to musk. Worth every penny.

Your entire tone indicates you’re more interested in “blasting” my response than reading it. Have a nice day.

We’re in a period of politics where popularism is expanding. Everyone wants a “trump” - even the leftists, they just want a “trump” who aligns with their ideology.

The problem is the “trump” figure everyone wants is one who doesn’t care about the framework of government. The rules, norms, laws, etc. In the same way that religions are much more than their holy book our country is much more than our founding document. Most of the behavior of our government, and the executive branch in particular, is not defined in the constitution - it was created by laws and norms established over time. Often that is just “the executive does ‘war things’” without getting into details.

A “trump” doesn’t give a shit about those norms, ideals, or rules. They don’t care if they’re “breaking with tradition” or “trashing long-standing norms”. A “trump” is an ends-justifies-the-means monster.

You want a “leftist trump” - somebody who will trash the same institutions to get your way. Because your way is the right way and Trump is already destroying things so lets just aim the wreaking ball in a different direction.

But - in a representative democracy there needs to be compromise and debate. The parties should work together to find paths forward. Grandstanding on appointees isn’t really “a thing” you do because the president gets to choose his cabinet officers. Congress was never really supposed to block them on ideological grounds - it’s not really their role. And if you do it, then they might do it. It’s a bit of a “mutually assured destruction” scenario that keeps both sides willing to work together.

These norms are important though. They have traditionally kept the government more stable through transitions so that we don’t radically switch from left to right each election cycle.

You can, and will, say that “nothing at all matters anymore because Trump doesn’t care” and I hear you. But I caution about seeking your own “trump” because the framework of our government is more important than the policies its passing over the long run. The framework limits Trump to 4 years, for example. He was chosen by the people, we just need to hope that we can limit his damage in that time. God willing he’ll serve less given his advanced age.

So that’s why I think democrats are voting for his nominees. They’re upholding the norms and traditions as they have.

FWIW SELinux is a standard Linux feature - mostly used by RedHat distros.

The difference is the approach to how much a system should be locked down. Desktop systems are traditionally more flexible, probably more for historic reasons, partly due to being used by more technically sophisticated users (or at least assuming users would be more sophisticated). Smart phones, however, were marketed towards the lowest-common denominator users running on a device with many limitations as well. I’m not disparaging these users mind - just stating a fact. So things need to be locked down more. And since these platforms had no legacy expectations on them they could do it however they like (e.g. they can dictate which directories are used for what purposes).

The desktop is sorta moving in this direction as well. Flatpaks and snaps run applications in containers which can be restricted and isolated from each other as well as from the rest of the system. It takes time for applications to catch up to being sandboxed though so it is happening slowly.

You’re sure? Why wouldn’t they? Jumping to these types of conclusions is bad.

You can choose to blame the people who sat out this election

I do.

It’s amazing how many people ignore the reality of “bigger army diplomacy”.

I fucking projectile vomited! This cult needs to be stopped.
