Well, I wouldn’t mind if then you didn’t criticize my take on a situation you didn’t even try to comprehend.


So you are commenting on a post about a post you didn’t even read?


Well, everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Whether they are grounded in reality is another matter. Every case of “Zionist censorship” listed in the dbzer0 post boils down to one of their members calling to kill the other side or calling someone Zionist because they don’t support killing the other side.


And what does that have to do with people removing peoples posts calling for more violence?


THC is AFAIK the component that produces the high and CBD its counterpart that soothes.


The type of flail seen in your picture wasn’t used by the peasantry but nobility. Some crafty blacksmith probably saw drafted farmers take their threshing flail into battle as improvised weapon and thought about how to properly weaponize the concept. Also we are not talking about two flimsy sticks here. Flails used for threshing had to be sturdy as they needed to last the whole harvest season. They were made from hardwood and I can personally attest, that they are heavy indeed. The things one finds when clearing the grandparents barn …
As for the practicality of the weaponized flail: it was indeed of dubious use and it is questionable whether it saw widespread military adoption or whether it was the equivalent of “tacticool” gear of the middle ages. An iron club is indeed a more effective weapon and is commenly referred to as mace and if you take a look at a specific type of mace you can probably guess where the idea of the spiky ball came from.


Flails are used for threshing.


Not that I am aware of atm, but I am very certain that people are working on them.


Well, there can be FOSS LLMs so why not support them?


Ask the overwhelming majority of people who think using a browser by the same manufacturer is the way to go.


Don’t click on print on the page but use your browsers print dialog (usually CTRL + P).


I am not sure if I understand the attitude of your comment.
“Vindicated by history” to me suggest that given the current situation, you think Machado has done the right thing back in 2002 when she supported a coup against Chavez, a democratically elected leader. However, the question “how far can you go” implies to me that you question whether what she did was worth it or ethical? So it’s not clear to me what your stance is.


I upvoted. May I have my paycheck now, please?
Well, I guess compared to the average world leader who sits comfy behind their desk all day, it might seem somewhat strange to see a leader out in the field. (Pun intended)
