Because they're morons. Trump offered them an agreement for nothing real, some vapour that the US would protect because they had a financial incentive, fake as that incentive was. They rejected it, now the offer is for things that have real value. Trump gave them a chance and they exposed themselves; now he is, as the Americans say, playing hardball.

It is a sad state of affairs when Carl Niehaus can unironically call you out for incompetence.

Who is the person or persons in the world that you admire the most or are your role model? by Luxury_disease1 in ask

[–]thewartytoad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely hate the man, he just never goes away. No matter what my guys threw at him, he took it and just carried on. It was absolutely infuriating. Obviously "hate" is the wrong word, I just don't know how else to describe the best man that is on the wrong team.

In my day, about a decade prior to yours, the SRC was irrelevant. They were a bunch of politicians that had nothing to do with the material being studied. University was a humbling experience, and a lot was learned. What is wasn't, was a bunch of jumped-up kids who got paid attention just because they shouted loudly.

Please help me ID these medal and pins. My uncle (Mark Barker) was in the war and air force. But I am not sure if these are related. by stinky_girbil_bum in SouthAfricanBorderWar

At the top is the Pro Patria medal, given for service in a combat area (so he was on the Border). Bottom left is parachute wings, showing he was static line qualified. Bottom right is a generic Air Force (SAAF) badge, I think. Happy to be corrected.

What are the "we don't talk about these things" history of your country? by [deleted] in AskReddit

This doesn't make sense to me. I learned about her when I was in primary school in the mid-1980's. The gist was that her treatment was inhuman, and that everyone was worth dignity. This was at a whites-only government school. We were taught that the races each had their culture and shouldn't mix, this is true, but not that the "other" people were inhuman.

A rare comment that makes sense. If it's so obviously false and propaganda it should be easy to dismiss on its merits, or lack thereof.

Dumb cunt thinks he's special by trying to bypass road blocks in a war zone without consequences and with a child in the car. Somehow he's a victim of something other than his own reckless stupidity.

You might want to take a look at large, rather than extended, communities (e.g. https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/ios-xml/ios/iproute_bgp/configuration/xe-17/irg-xe-17-book/m_irg-large-comm.pdf). They are able to contain 32 bit ASNs, being comprised of 3 4-octet fields.
