    Oh, im aware. Lots of stuff we thought was limited to American colonization, education that has since been whitewashed to make it sound not as bad as it was, and general comments that miss most of the story. Even at the high school level.

    You are not responsible for the actions of your ancestors, regardless of how direct or indirect it was. The flip side is that I did not suffer that treatment, and therefore can no blame my life and actions on it. Very different viewpoint to a number of my iwi, who are still stuck in the take take take and I'm owed mindset. Screwing over the next generation with their excuses.

    All good - I actually wish some of us would stop using the last 150 years as an excuse. Did we have to deal with alot of shit - absolutely, and a not 0 ammout is still ongoing. But FFS, the opportunities are there if you stop using it as an excuse to not do better.

    That's a very weak arguement - you're communicating with the embassy and ambassador of a recognized country.

    Pagers are one directional, and cant be traced.

    To view a different way, why do they have a pager, rather than just calling an embassy, "state department" or cell phone?

    Thats ok, us Maori spend our whole time hating normal kiwis, who then hate nazis. They just need to slot in and direct theirs in the right direction (/s).

    I mean, what are they really going to do - deport us back home? Actually don't answer that, they may try it.

    How did something that only killed 10 targets injure thousands, especially when you are considering explosives.

    I don't think I could injure 1000s of civilians with only 10 targets killed with an explosive hidden on their person if I tried.

    Close - you're looking at letter, not action and intentions.

    Booby traps are banned for use in ways that are likely to be used by civilians and remove protections on the civilian population. Things like placing explosives on public transport, the side of the road, in marketplaces or protected places. Targeted strikes, like on a piece of civilian equipment that is likely to only be used by the target (cellphone, personal vehicle, laptop) are permitted as they are unlikely to be set off by a random civilian.

    What is a question, however, is if the targets were actually combatants.

    Correct.

    Killing civilians isn't a war crime. Deliberately killing civilians, or not taking reasonable steps to minimize civilian casualties is a war crime.

    "Small" explosive that is embedded in something passed to and likely worn by the target is unlikely to be a war crime. If they somehow snuck a 1000lb bomb into one it absolutely would be however.

    Fat electrician had a great video on this.

    Soo accurate that if the target is in a car you need to know what seat.

    There was arguement and reviews that COD 2 had overdone the first person shooter, and we were exhausted of the WW2 repeats.

    Whats modern warfare, modern warfare (deliberately repeated), battlefield and Black ops variations up too?

    Care to elaborate? Because what I'm seeing is that you want those imprisoned, who are deliberately separated from society and deprived them of rights like personal freedom, to have the same rights and access to advancement?

    Make no mistake, im not saying deprive them of basic human right - the prison system is bad enough. But they are meant to be deprived of freedom.

    I mean, sure? If someone goes to prison you probably don't want them making a full time wage, while having everything else paid for. Its meant to be worse than living out.

    Different discussions can and should be held if they are being forced to work, for profit prisons, or options to work and gain skills or experience in trades, or to fund study. But at a surface level it sounds fair.

    Oh crap, you're right. Effective range 140 yard.

    .270 or 30-06 it is then.

    Thats a 300-500m shot. You could hit him with an off the shelf scoped .22 (effective range140 yd). I'd personally go for a .270 but wonder if he's worth the extra cost... imagine the headline, killed by one of the smallest calibers in common use.

    And why the fuck would you stick the barrel through the fence??

    You and I? Very little.

    And yes, changing multipolar world, rising states, shift of world power eastward, then throw in a healthy dose of climate change and resource shortages. The tension is absolutely there.

    You're dragging my memory back something like 20 years, but I feel like there was one he decided to get naked in summer and just stop for a few minutes. Nothing life threatening at that moment.

    Could have been one of the 3 times he was warned winter was coming, but he was too distracted.

    opinion: The NZ dream and culture has made us fall behind as a country.

    Don't know the best way to put this but ill try. As much as I love this country, we have fallen soo far behind. I don't want to get to political, but I think Labour tried to fix it in one way, now Nat will try the other. Neither will work in the time they have. We always prided ourselves on our past accomplishments- women vote, Hillary, Rutherford, Nuclear Free, Maori Batallion - and what we are as a country - massive dairy producers, amazing tourist destination, friendly people. But we have dwelled on it too long and got complacent. Our desire to repeat our past success has made us miss opportunities that require years of investment, and meant we are now in a cultural and economic hole that will be increasingly difficult, expensive and time consuming to get ourselves out from. We have a tiny population and limited housing in an empty country where people have limited desire and finances for kids. Massive farms that produce income for a few overseas investors or historic families. Massively increasing inflation and cost of living due to our long supply chains and small industry base, especially compared to overseas. Falling education at a time we needs teachers, medical persons, engineers and tradies... unis are slashing courses, councils are running out of money, and overseas investors will funnel more out of the country. I just want others thoughts around this - I have multiple ideas and theories, but I want to hear from you all.

    cross posting from reddit - any coders happy to put in some leg work?

    Hi all, Reddit refugee here. I've been following hfy for a number of years and am invested quite heavily in a number of stories. I usually read on mobile on my lunch break, but with rif going and the shocking app it's replaced with I can no longer do so - just log in via computer every week or so to catch up. What I am interested in is seeing if any coders here are able to make a bot that pulls ongoing stories from r/hfy when they are updated (first contact, TFTR.etc) and ask the authors if they are ok with it being automatically posted to lemmy as well?
