Seriously pal, read up on what happened in the US when we tried prohibition. Read up on prison economics. Alcohol is severely restricted in prisons all over he world, and most prisoners have no problems getting alcohol. The only thing that happened when we tried it nationally was we created massive crime rings, and the more of those that shut down, the more popped up.
How much can I make? I can get 55 gallon drums on Amazon. So 55 gallons, at least. I can fit probably 15 of those in my basement. So that's 725 gallons at one time. Read up on bathtub gin. I've got two bathtubs. They're probably around 20 gallons each.
If I was an addict? You literally cannot limit alcohol from people who want it, because it's very easy to produce in very large quantities with very simple equipment. See also the wAr oN dRuGs and how well that limited access to pretty much every narcotic they attempted to control.
e: > If you are a addict you cannot go to the bar for drink.
Lol. Go look up what a speakeasy is. "Illegal" and "unavailable" are two entirely separate and unrelated concepts.
The word should is doing a lot of heavy lifting there. Where's the data? Right. There's isn't any. Revisit this 5 years after it's implemented.
You should read your links.
The tl;Dr on that article is that the government is enacting a ban of some specific packaging under a lot of speculation that it'll reduce kids access to alcohol and reduce underage drinking.
- This ban is targeted at a specific target, focused on a specific demographic.
- This ban hasn't even been implemented, there's no evidence of it being effective. Just "the government says it'll work"
- We have similar bans and controls on vaping and tobacco in the U.S. and it barely dents underage vaping and smoking. That's pretty good evidence that this is gonna fail for the same reasons.
That's literally what happened throughout the US in the 1920s.
I can make alcohol in a bowl on my counter with sugar, yeast, water, potatoes, and a couple weeks waiting. I can do it much faster and more effectively with a little copper tubing and some heat.
lol, yeah that went reeeeally well. "Banning" anything is the stupidest, least effective way of stopping a thing from happening.

It just seems like cross-posting with more confusing terms for normal people.
What I'd really like is one single sign-on for everything that was federated to my original Fediverse service instance. I should be able to just go to some Pixelfed/Mastodon/Lemmy/etc instance, log in with @[email protected] and I'm just magically makes me a user there. (Assuming instance permissions and federation settings and such, of course.)
I get it, account management and implied trust is hard to do. But that's what this feature should be.
Yup. Treating VMs similar to containers. The alternative, older-school method is cold snapshots of the VM, apply patches/updates (after pre-prod testing & validation), usually in an A/B or red/green phased rollout, and roll back snaps when things go tits up.
Or how about, rather than your narrow, specific 3 definitions, a fourth thing, such as how it's phrased in the wiki:
The emphasis there is why you're being called names on the internet. If you're advocating systems or societal norms of gender oppression, you're being misogynist. This remains true even if you're not doing it intentionally.
The world we live in is deeply patriarchal, so it can be hard to see these problems, because the views and opinions you've got are just "normal". Something being the norm doesn't mean it isn't oppressive, and having an opinion doesn't mean you shouldn't consider the impacts of that opinion.
Generally, if someone calls you a misogynist, and you go "bUt I rEsPeCt wOmEn", you might want to take a little time to figure out where it's coming from. It can certainly be real without fitting in your 3 tidy little self-serving definitions.
I'll also point out that you can replace nearly every instance of misogyny in this thread with racism, and replace women with black, and it would be the same discussion. Or you could swap misogyny/women with misandry/men. Oppression is oppression, no matter who holds the power.
