…because based on the facts it is homicide.
For Australians: they mean American opossums, not Australian possums. Our cute little marsupial friends have appropriately wrinkly brains, thank goodness.
…is the second largest city in Australia. But also has an inflated sense of self-importance.

A lot of plastics have PFAS in them and I don’t think it’s likely they’ll be rushing to remove them. I wonder how this is going to play out.
In my country that means you wouldn’t respect (for instance) ordinary people who’ve paid off a house. 1 million isn’t as much money as it used to be.
You appear to be arguing that even if microplastics are present in the environment it’s not a problem. That’s a brave stance to take given the wealth of information to the contrary.
Even if they did break down it’s bad. Plastics have additives in them which are used to improve their material properties. These additives include BPA and PFAS (and similar). We know that these compounds cause problems in humans and the environment. So if they were “easily digestible by the body” that would absolutely be a big problem.
There’s no world in which “nothing will be harmed” by plastic decaying. Some people even argue that conventional plastics are less dangerous in landfill than bioplastics because at least they don’t release dangerous by-products like microplastics or “forever chemicals”.
They don’t break down completely in landfill. They just turn into microplastics.
Despite claims to the contrary, PLA does usually break down into microplastics. It’s possible that under certain conditions (such as those found in industrial composters) those microplastics might be broken down into starches and consumed by bacteria, but most teabags will just end up in landfill and won’t break down beyond microplastics.
ISO uses a weird separator ‘T’ between the time and the date. eg. 2018-04-01T15:20:15.000-0700
RFC3339 can have a space instead which is a bit more readable: eg. 2020-12-09 16:09:53+00:00
Also, humiliating someone in front of the whole LKML list by calling their code garbage isn’t constructive. It’s the reason why a lot of people take one look at that toxic cesspit and walk the other way.
I found one from the early 2000s: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LOxSWzi9G_g
I don’t think it was specifically DARE here but I do remember some super cringe anti-drug ads in the late 80s or maybe early 90s.
Democracies usually have laws and some kind of government. There are no laws in Freetown Christiania and there’s no individual who has direct power over another.
I think this is a common misconception about anarchies - that there’s no social control of any kind. If you look at actual real world anarchies like Freetown Christiania in Copenhagen they don’t believe in a complete absence of organisation. Far from it - they develop community-based committees which have no actual power in themselves but are used to develop concensus on issues that affect the whole community. So rather than abolishing all rules they’re all about human collaboration and concensus.
For instance when hard drugs became a problem in Christiana the residents got together and banned hard drugs. It’s not a law as such but everyone’s in agreement that if you try to sell hard drugs you’ll be ejected.
It’s not a perfect place and it’s hard to say that their brand of anarchy works well as a system of government. It seems to have been a mixed experience for many people who’ve lived there. But it’s definitely been an interesting social experiment.
There are plenty of documentaries on youtube if you’re interested.
It’s not uncommon among high level classical musicians apparently.
Personally, I prefer Spotify.
All the rubbish they quote about collaboration is based on no real evidence either, or at best “studies” by corporate linked institutes with an agenda.
They make up all sorts of reasons why they want us back in the office but the reality is pretty obvious - it’s simply not necessary for many employees to be in the office at all.
They recently passed a law which said you could install picture hooks “within reason” without being penalised by your landlord. Prior to that if you installed a picture hook you’d likely be charged for the cost of re-plastering the wall when you left. Although they wouldn’t actually re-plaster it, they’d just charge you as if they had and then the next renter would have a picture hook so lucky them.
But major mods like installing a TV mount are totally out unless you can negotiate it with the landlord somehow. If you did it without permission it’s grounds for eviction and a loss of your bond.
Pretty much none allow it in my country.
Remember the time - two days ago - when Trump said he was going to ban all electric cars? I wonder how Elon feels about that.
