Disposable extinguishers have to be replaced every 10 years or so. Used or not.
Rechargeable ones need internal service every 5 or 6 years depending on model, but with proper maintenance they can last indefinitely, but doing that costs money.
The picture really allows for some quite astute plausible deniability regarding his dry testicles for sale.
Okay, but the current Merz cabinet pushing for the first picture comes from a grand coalition composed of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU), the Christian Social Union (CSU), and the Social Democratic Party (SPD). It officially took office on 6 May 2025 after Friedrich Merz was elected Chancellor by the Bundestag.
So in part it is the Socialists who are pushing this, along with the CDU and CSU and the AfD are not even in power.
Although I do agree that Germany is in a messed up state. Especially economically. So the push for extra military spending is their attempt at being like the USA and try to pump up their economy that way. Bad idea IMO. The year really does make it, though.

I am of the habit that I block it globally on the browser. Until perhaps a website that I have to use needs it.
Yeah, it seems like a totally unnecessary move.
There is video of him being removed/taken away by others. He certainly was not crushed.
You know there are photos of the dead people right? And videos?
Canadian Seltler shitllib? Hahaha. Cute, friend. You know nothing about me.
Nice that you went and checked my history as to come up with something to side track my points. I am not sure if you are a CCP shill or just brainwashed in propaganda.
Also, you are moving the goal post, friend. You told the guy you responded to that the Tiananmen Square masacre was not censored. It is. That is my point and provided proof that it is and I can do that without lowering to your level of insults. Clearly, I hit a nerve, it is okay Comrade. Be happy.
There is a reason why put a link in Chinese in an English speaking forum without translaltion.
Removed by mod
In that link, they refer to it as:
“The 1989 political turmoil and subsidence.”
That is a really weird way to call a massacre, don’t you think?
Please we all know that the Government hides the search results in China if you look for it. Or are you going to deny that?
Like, why lie?

Also, you are quite correct.
I go out of my way to not use any MS product. Thank god for Linux and Foss apps.
Again, what National Socialist policies does he push?
You really do not know the whole picture in South Africa, eh? And what is happening there.
If you are American, I do not blame you. It does not get enough coverage there.
Allow me to help:

So they aren’t National Socialists. I doubt t most people actually even know want a National Socialists actually even follows in policy outside memes.
Just a label that gets throw around just to antagonize anyone who disagrees with them. No wonder the term seems to be getting watered down. I see people calling everyone right of them a Nazi, these days.
Nationalism on its own is not a Nazi only trait. Everyone who knows history know that is vague. North Korea, China and The Soviet Union/Russia today are highly and extremely Nationalistic, are they National Socialists? In top of this, I do not know if you have travelled but Chinese people are among the most racist people I ever met. Remember when Disney has to hide Flynn’s picture from the Star Wars posters or when they covered the face of Black Panther from their posters too?
Facism comes straight out of Marxism. Literally the father of Facism Giovanni Gentile defined it as Marxism + Nationalism. Where people are white canvases and the State gets to turn them into National Socialists via school and indoctrination. The only differences between National Socialists and “International Socialists” aka: Socialists, is that regard ks the Socialists/Comminists in practice want to seize the means of production while the NS want to not own it, but to dominate it via policy to the point that they’re essentially one and the same. There is a lot of other overlaping things too.
If we were to take that last point then the USA has been slowly leaning into Facism for the last quarter of acentury at least, moving forth regardless if the president was on the Left or the Right. So both sides are ever closer to Facism. If we are objective.
Been a Liberal my whole life. Just not a member of the cult mentality that some in the left seem to be part of, these days. We do exist.
For the most part, Canadian Liberals ≠ USA Progressives. For the crazy ones, you have to look at the recent convention of the NDP.
This is such absolute cope that lacks real world nuance… The problem with social media is the nature of social media in the aggregate. Specially for younger minds. That is not to say that it will not affect adults as well.
Social media is addictive period, and how some of them interact against the human condition. Making it not privately owned would not fix this. Say the government owning it, or having extreme control over it, mostly devolves into a tool of control and surveillance. As it can be demonstrated in some countries.
it is true that social media is made way more addictive due to incentiviing profit, you are correct there. But for example, studies show that despite the addictive nature of platforms like Instagram, girls self’s worth gets utterly destroyed by merely using the app, over time. Addiction not required.
A little bit of column A and a little bit of column B.
It has been proven that social media damages teeneagers’s development and self-worth. Or anyone here is going to attempt to deny this?
Either parents get way, way, way better at managing this or someone else has to do it.
I make as much of my own food as possible. So I mostly buy basic ingredients.
Mayo, ketchup, BBQ sauce, ramen broth, grow my own yeast, bake breads all types, pizza dough for home made pizza, kimchi, grow some herbs and other plants when possible. You eat healthier, and tastes way, way better. Some planning required since you make things in bulk but since there are no preservatives, food will not last months, unless you also make your own preserves, but it gets easier with practice. Pickled stuff is delicious.
Also, will buy meat with bone in, use the bones to make broth and sauces for better for flavour.
You are referring to unarmed protestors against fully armed military, with tanks? LOL, aha. Damn those rioters attacking the military with their own blood, splattered on the square. Those demons!
Not white. You know nothing about me. Keep Shilling, Comrade. Oh, we talked before? Is that so? Oh, fair, but I do not remember you, nor care to know you. It is true that I am a Liberal and I will give you the decency of not being as petty as you, since I do not have to rely on insults when I have facts and sources.
Again, all you have proven is that I hit a nerve. Can’t even take the slightest of critism.
So, here is the difference of the searches that people did even back in the day, noticed the difference between the searches in Chinese VS the ones outside of China. Thus proving OPs and my point.
For anyone to look, like this is nothing new. This is how China would change results on actual internet searches. https://imgur.com/a/vbkFA
The university course on your link is reframed, obviously. That is the whole point on censorship. I can tell by the other curses and the content that a lot of things are reframed as well. Again, there is reason why you posted a Chinese link in an English focused site. We all know how idealogues think.
Anyway, stop lying. That point remains.
Lastly, on this segment of this documentary, Tank Man, these Asian students claim to not even recognize the famous “Tank Man” when asked.
So, either they do not know, which I fully doubt, if you hear what she says, or they do know, which is the case,but do not want to publicly discuss it on camera and risk getting any type of trouble. Take your pick.

Rely in common sense comrade. Have a great one, Cheers.
