Can I assume you were a teenager/early 20s in the 90s?

Well, it was fun while the fediverse was not just a cesspit of US politics

a whole lotta worse than regular executions

Only to the people justifying state murder. To the person involved, they are still dead either way,

To me the Saudi.Taliban methods are more honest, though just as mortally reprehensible as the USA's. The Saudi's are proud that they murder their citizens and are not afraid to show it.

After reading the title I thought of that person in seemingly every office'workplace who fucks shit up on purpose so it gets assigned to someone else.

The big thing people over look when considering the we are broadcasting thousands od watts into space, they might hear use is SNR

Signal to noise ratio. (the more random stuff on a frequency the harder it is to read the signal)

Yes, humans are pumping out a huge amount of radio (etc) signals into space. it is not coherent or directed.

Thousands of antennae all over the world pumping different signals but from far away, they are all noise interfering with each other.

IIRC: Even if there was a radio telescope only a few light years away, all they would see pointing directly at earth would be static.

Centrists: It’s the same thing!1!!

Response from a country that does not ahve the death penalty.

Well, they are...

It is not how the state does it that is the problem but that the state does it.

There is no way to humanely kill someone who does not want to die.

The author, James Clavell wrote 6 novels set in Asia that span 400-ish years. Shogun - 1600 to the last set in the 1990s.

Shogun is one of the best but they are all worth a read.

My rating of the Series.

Shogun & Noble House tied for first. (both were made into mini-series in the 80s)

Tai-Pan

Gai-Jin

King Rat (his first novel, based on personal experence in WW2)

Whirlwind

If you are going all the way back, movie wise, you can start at Star Trek 2: The Wrath of Khan as the first one is not the strongest.

2, 3 and 4 make a good trilogy.

Made mid '80's.

Want to replicate the fast food taste?

Add shit loads of sugar, salt and butter/oil when you cook.

Like add three times more than you normally would, then add some more.
