No, they don't. They have no idea what the actual costs of the product is, nor are they aware that it'll break in two weeks ... or two days.

They did study the Napoleonic invasion of Russia. They just thought they were better.
I've had members of the Métis community tell me to use "indigenous" with a mixed group because in Canada the Métis and the Inuit don't fall under the Indian Act.
I believe that "Indian Giving" is sourced in a cultural misunderstanding between Indigenous and European societies. Indigenous societies were reciprocity based, so giving gifts should be reciprocated with a gift of like value to strengthen relationships, or increase honour (social standing). The Europeans were working in a patron-client system so a gift was seen as a way of purchasing access to power through a patron. The Europeans thought the Indigenous people were paying for access to power (like a tributary), so there's no expectation of returning a like gift. The indigenous people thought they were entering into a mutual relationship, and when a like gift wasn't returned that was seen as reneging, so they took back their 'offer'.
Glad to have an anthropologist kick my ass.
Ahhh ... Clever lawyers. Put in a clause to prevent an Aussie from using rhyming slang.

That's not too fair. Poor guy. Someone has to fight back. Are we sure it wasn't self-defense? Maybe they were trying to sink his yacht?
That was the first word in my head: nope. There's a whole lot of nope in this photo.

I'd be freaking out every time a kid jumped off a chair, or came down the stairs too fast. Strictly love -making. No fucking allowed.
Darjeeling had this feeling in lots of places, but not this extreme.

First time I've seen the word 'cryptofascist' outside of Red Dwarf.
This is an ancient, but relatively unheard of Japanese dueling style called 'tugoware', where the duelists fight left handed, whilst trying to yank a double-handled katana out of each other's hands.
Fuck, AI really doesn't get weapons, does it? Amazing it can put together reasonable looking armour, but just can't figure out a sword.
... we should probably keep it that way. It's going to be stunned when it tries fighting us.

Did anyone who was actually curious. The beach pictured is almost certainly not on this "subantarctic" island. Not enough albatrii or fur seals, and too many palm trees.
