@markusl You're right, it can always go wrong. Even if it doesn't, that stuff being really strong is no joke — this comes from a person who can alone drink a bottle of vodka or whiskey and still solve differential equations… well, sort of 🤭
Even if it's properly refined, the alcohol poisoning is still dangerous.
The fact that you have A LOT of this stuff and you don't have to leave the comfort of your home to get more, makes it dangerous for most.

@thor In Russia it's not a matter of taxes. Although the taxes are pretty high, the government somehow made people think that if they don't do the papers themselves, it's some evil capitalist who pays those taxes — not them, who get paid less for their job and pays more for goods. Doesn't matter. A lot of people are piss-poor, so no one minds saving on alcohol.
Another factor is soviet-era tradition of home distilling from the times when Gorbachev banned alcohol.

@thor Princess 🍑!
Thank you, Mario, but our princess is in another castle 🤣

@splitshockvirus It was useful for bruteforcing Wakaba tripcodes though as it had really fast DES_crypt() function 🤭

@fcktheworld587 The reality turned out even funnier! Everyone still got owned by "lighter version" of the exploit. Despite the patches 🤣

@thor If you are into strong alcohol, it's not that hard and definitely worth it!
My mother has a friend whose husband is into this and they've invited us over before the COVID hell broke loose. He had it in all shapes, sizes and colours: this one's based on some berries, this is just plain alcohol like vodka, etc.
It was dirt-cheap to make, but really good unlike cheap stuff you can get from the store. So strong though — I barely remember how I got home 🥴

@thatoneperkele I used to be like Shiva or something… with more hands. Grabbing all those beers!
But it got old real fast during COVID lockdowns 😅@thor

Это какое-то безобразие! Я буду жаловаться… Я напишу в Спортлото! 🤬

@neural_meduza Давно пора! Совсем плохие фейковые новости пошли, никуда не годятся.

@vriska Yeah, I got it, just joking around 😅

@vriska
> won't end up like sting
As an Englishman in New York? 🤔

@thor Looks badass!
I'm a knob-person myself. Faders… who needs those, right? But it depends what your crew is into, there are people like that 🤣

@fcktheworld587 Bu-u-t… How do we do signal processing without complex numbers? Stuff we can do using these delay network sound really nice!
But yeah, on paper it looks like absolute rubbish 🤣

@thor Don't get me wrong, the problem is not Trump being rich, the problem is people believing that one person is going to fix all their problems. This conservative-progressive game just looks so stupid from the sidelines. People don't even realize they do precisely what they accuse their opponents of.

@thor Oh, yes! It's just a good example of what all this ends with.
US is hardly a poor country, but the problems are all the same. People just point fingers at each other instead of looking for the actual problem:
— You're a Nazi!
— And you want to turn our kids transgender!
It's so stupid! You guys are the same, you just wear caps of different colour. And Donald Trump is not like you, he's a rich guy. The guy who you point your finger at, who also can't afford a house, is like you.

@safiuddinkhan@fosstodon.org Too bad for the ones who live on plains — they are sad because they can't have caves and have to resort to living in mud huts 😅

@thor They can't see who their real enemies are and just go with what government tells them. There is no one to control the government and it keeps brewing until it turns into a full-blown disaster like the one we have today 😭

@thor As a Russian, I can confirm, it's 100% true. Some people here say that they need comrade Stalin to fix all this, and you are always like: "No, guys, you don't! It doesn't work like that!"
But it's not like they get what they deserve per se. It's a self-sustaining system: poverty → bad food, bad jobs → they don't feel well most of the time, they just follow their routine and can't take a step back and realize what their problem is.

@nerdtronics@mstdn.starnix.network Everyone knows you need at least a wand of fire to defeat the shopkeeper! Or teach your cat do the shoplifting for you. Definitely not that! Ma-an, what a couple of losers 🤦🏿

@aster You can't have winter in a slice of life anime without kotatsu! 😆@potzerus @mametsuko
