I am pretty sure that wiring your house is (rightly) illegal in many countries unless you are a licensed electrician, because of the fire Hazard and all.

Wow, Its fascinating, the mental gymnastics people perform to rationalise the atrocities their side perpetrates while in the same breath deploring the atrocities committed by the other side.
Got it.
Europe and America invaded iraq.
Europe killed Gaddafi and then abandoned Libya to the vacuum.
On Syria, i guess Europe and america and share blame with their middle eastern allies. But again Europe was willing and eager participant.
Its called blowback. You reap what you sow.
Its also quite important to many parts of Asia.
Edit: the impact of the columbian exchange on the world doesnt get enough attention.

Right now it seems that every measure seems to be to increase governments control over the masses and to reduce their corruption, without any measure to increase governments transparency or reduce government's corruption. Trickle down economics and trickle up anti-corruption measures.
Why couldn't it be practical at the scale of a home? Say if you have a large backyard?
i try to split different fields of interest into separate windows. Then i save that window as a suitably titled session and close the window. If i need to add a new tab to a session, i use the "append to session" feature. That way i dont clutter up my bookmarks or my primary firefox session.
The Rwandan genocide was in many ways a grass roots movement - Most of the killing was perpetrated by normal everyday people using farm implements and the like. It was also incredibly efficient. 800,000 people killed in just 6 weeks - more efficient than the Nazi Holocaust. A big reason for that was the unfiltered radio, spouting hate speech and misinformation, rousing ordinary people and priming them to commit extraordinary, unspeakable acts.
If you look at evolution, it is just a fight over whose genes get passed over to the next generation. Genes are just biological encoding of information. Viruses are almost entirely strands of DNA, that is until they find a host cell to infect their information with. In a way it is all just information warfare.
So political satire shows like Jon Stewart and the Late show? Can't happen in UK. Guess thats why John Oliver, an englishman, is doing his show in the US.

It is strange but i never really thought of Russia as neighbours with China or Korea with a shared history.
Agree grandparent comment truly made me understand the woman's side of thing. It's easy for men to dismiss them as being irrational.
I am glad that diamond engagements aren't a thing in India. (Although in place of it we have a ton of other retarded customs). Gold is pretty much the standard here - which is actually quite practical. It makes a good liquid asset, holds its value, stays as an insurance and safety during hard times.

Quite clever and counter-intuitive really.
Why not expose wrong-doings of leaders whose people actually have an ability to right the wrong?
So those politicians speaking to old people in steel towns are misleading them and giving them false hope. Bringing manufacturing back isn't going to do much to reduce unemployment . That seems to be the point of the article.
