Windows is dead to me. Arm Linux would be a wet dream

Why?

For real?

Good

The whole movie is pretty ‘trek’ and a great watch

I offer you brownies and ask you to tell me what a substantial skill is and you insult me? Why? Reads like you might be bad company.

…

I thought ‘smoking weed’ to be an obvious pars pro toto for ‘consuming marihuana’ so if we want to return to the original topic: smoking weed for a long time gives you substantial knowledge about smoking weed. When to do it, what to mix, how to roll a blunt, operate a bong or vaporiser, just how to roll a spliff in your hand on a windy beach or how to decarboxylate your shot properly. Now are these ubiquitously useful skill? Not really. Are they very useful in terms of getting very high? Absolutely.

I find the original question to be kind of silly. Of course smoking weed can be a hobby. If whisky is a hobby, weed is, too.

Please try some of my brownies and tell me about substantial skill

The consensus leans to it being not that great.

This true but also irrelevant to the point that technological supremacy doesn’t equal a guaranteed win.

You got that checked out?

Every place mostly populated by people is bound have a lot of idiots.

It’s corroding you from within.

Especially when there’s potential for outrage

Thank you. Did not know about that. I still don’t get why they’re not yellow anymore but nevermind.

You’re not wrong. This is one of the ‘other things’ I mentioned. A shortage of natural resources is another. Winter, too.

But it is not a myth that Germany had many high quality, but incompatible weapons systems from different manufacturers (handguns and rifles) and that e.g. the tiger was impressive but unreliable.

The best example might be the Wunderwaffen they shot London with. Useless in the grand scheme of things, yet technologically impressive.

My point is that technological supremacy isn’t automatically going to secure the victory.

It is the explanation. I thought the premise of the Simpsons as Asian would be a big enough sign that this is a question (why aren’t they yellow?) packaged as a ludicrous joke. I was wrong, apparently.

Let me rephrase that:

Why aren’t they yellow?

Keep in mind that the Nazis back in the day had sophisticated weaponry and a lot of high quality stuff, but they were beaten by cheap, mass produced, easy to use weapons and armor. Among other things - but the point still stands.

Is this Asian heritage removal?
