One way to do that, and no joke, is to start up and participate in local barter economies.

A bunch of places I’ve lived in, especially with a large student population, would have communities where people who have surpluses of something, extra food, old furniture, can give it to people who need them.

Ask yourself the question, what can you do to fulfill a need while preempting consumption, and you have an answer.

Can you put a source to that? All I could find is the US allowing Iran to start selling oil without restrictions. It looks unclear at this point.

But did they stop? It looks like the US military was defeated

Did it stop though? Why can’t they use RMB, what changed?

Would have been mighty useful tho

Imagine them nuking a US carrier group

You can use commit hashes as pages in a choose your own adventure game

Git is an insult

Yes, and we ousted out kleptocrat. Have you?

Are not all ORMs like that? I only used ActiveRecord before fucking off from backend 10 years ago

Yeah my source is a Lemmy comment so take that as you will

IIRC they sold it in situ and bought gold at home from the proceeds, so that they didn’t have to call the US bluff.

I guess this will also get overturned after six months.

Election will not get redone, but everyone will be very sorry and promise not to do it again.

Great read, I rarely find an opinion article that has substance and is not just random drivel and ragebait.

Thanks for sharing

At least that only hurts its users. IDC about people doing shit to their own bodies

This is unrelated to Hormuz

Did they ban nicotine or smoking? Won’t nicotine in other forms that are legal outcompete illegal cigarettes?

I also think it’s overblown though, bans in public spaces should be enough.

Dude’s not perfect, and I won’t vote for him next election most likely even if he is, even if I think he’s perfect as well. One party having 70% of seats is not natural.

But just let me be happy that some dude ran on “let’s jail the 3000 most wealthy thieves in the country”, won overwhelmingly and didn’t yet roll back on it, in fact he doubled down.

So in the meantime he clarified that while he invited everyone and their cats to the anniversary of the revolution against the Soviets, he kinda made a mistake, and he won’t block sanctions against Israel and will rejoin the ICC and prosecute Netanyahu.

It was more of a gaffe than an actual policy position.

Iran let a lot of non-US ships, like ships from China or Spain through as long as they paid with RMB or EUR instead of USD.

The US wanted to stop that because it could collapse the petrodollar and they’d have to start paying for their own debt spending. So basically the US lets shipping through that supports the petrodollar, Iran lets shipping through that undermines it.

It’s my take on it though, everything is likely much more fuzzy.

Yeah, that’s a major WTF, especially since he wants to rejoin the ICC (or rather cancel the process of leaving).

My guess would be that he is doing all the shit he thinks is the default.

Good question how that turns out. Especially with the current state of international relations.
