They definitely did it before all the other nations pledging they're gonna do so.

That's due to the limitation at the time.

At some point, you'll have to decide what you're doing all this for, and if it's worth all the trouble.

Going by that logic, it would be safer to not go to these meetups, or any meetup at all. After all, every contact you have is a form of exposure.

If we're to take this to the extreme, you could live in the woods, with no human contact at all.

However, is this really what you want? You do have a lifestyle to sustain. Odds are, you've lived in the society your whole life. You'd need a decent paying job, as even having this very post would cost you something more than just your time.

The next question: what's at stake for you here? Would having your face caught at the security camera jeopardize you? Are you a world class criminal, or a retired one with your employer seeking your head to put on a pole? Are you running away from an abusive spouse? Are you running for office against certain tyrant? If you answer yes to any of these questions, then yes, you'd have to inspect every interaction you have and weight the risk against the potential gain.

Otherwise, odds are you're doing this out of curiosity and, to some extent, pleasure. To which I would ask: would limitting your social interaction 'please' you?

What are you talking about? I don't see cities becoming smaller due to cars. Not NYC, Beijing, Jakarta, Bangkok, Dubai, Doha.

Tell me which city? And no, I'm not trying to support cars here, just facts.

I thought it's a RHEL distro.

I've been liking KDE Plasma a bit too much. Currently using it for everything.

I swear I thought you just made that name up

I can't shoot the next guy when I feel like it, so not really.

 

Hi all, I noticed this community hasn't been active for a while. Might be a good time to bring it back.

Chances are, you already know what I'm talking about. For those who don't: the moderators and admins on feddit.org, especially !europe@feddit.org, have been removing comments and banning the users that are pro-Palestine, most of the time without even directly addressing them, just straight to banning.

Check out this pinned post. While a some were legit insults and calls to violence, most were just expressing dissatisfaction and questioning the policy.

While not all of us would always agree on things, we've been trying to engage in meaningful discussion even if we'd sometimes end up agreeing to disagree. The same cannot be said on the above community. At this rate, it would become an echo chamber for pro-Israel who'd say anyone disagreeing with them is antisemitic.

Not strictly EU, but I'm rather annoyed that this archaic feature has to be included in virtually every model of suitcase in the market.

Alternatively, anyone know how to remove it without destroying the suitcase?
