The difference between National law and International law is as such

National law is like a binding contract
International law is like an agreement between frenemies with nukes

[Baffler]

The difference between National law and International law is as such

National law is like a binding contract
International law is like an agreement between suburban homeowners' associations with nukes

...so eventually, they just stopped thinking.

[Sheb]

Yeah, although in this case it's specifically about refusing to enforce rulings of the European Court of Human Right. (Or is the the European Court of Justice? Whichever belong to the Council of Europe). There is a big one coming about the Yukos case soon, which could end up costing Russia a lot.

[sluissa]

The difference between National law and International law is as such

National law is like a binding contract
International law is like 6 year olds playing imaginary battles in the grass and yelling "I hit you! Fall over!" "Nuh uh, you didn't! *runs away*"

So we are doing quote pramids now?
Shame on all of you.

[Helgoland]

It's more like a quote stonehenge: The various parts are altered, added to or subtracted from, but it never really grows beyond level one.

We're reverting to your regularly scheduled Democratic People's Republic of Korea activities in light of severe attempts to unmask the convenient lies that keep us from collectively witnessing the cold alien specter of true reality beyond the collective veil of ignorance that is shitposting, the last protection of the human race.
 
Please limit further discussions of the ontological separation "Europe" to topical analysis of North Korea's negotiation process to meet the community acquis.

Not entirely true. You do have NK scientists etc going abroad for conferences, and business travellers going to NK. Until recently, almost all French cartoons were partially made in NK.

I'm surprised there are NK scientists at all tbh 

BTW and for the record: resistances are also a problem with viruses. To cite a few examples, there are strains of HSV and CMV resistant to acyclovir.

Also: HIV patients have to take a cocktail of drugs to prevent the rise of HIV strains resistant to antirretrovirals. This is why I am concerned about people afflicted with HIV that take their medication in an irregular manner: it's not just that they're harming themselves; they're also more infectious, and are likely carrying particularily nasty strains of HIV.

YOU DARE DISCUSS YEAR OLD NORK NEWS WITHOUT ME!?

The technological ease in which information spreads (in part due to China's fuckhueg phone and black market phone manufacturing industries being right next door to North Korea) is forcing Kim to adapt and allow more information to North Korea, more in line with China
So before their scientists could make two potato and can now make three potato
Inb4 North Korea thread invades

LIKE A PHOENIX WHO ALWAYS KNOWS, I ARRIVE AS DECLARED IN THE WORDS OF THE PROPHET JOHN LENIN

And not finishing courses / doctors giving out unnecessary medication / livestock medication

The livestock thing is pretty well slanted towards bacterial diseases, I think. And that's all my seriousness for the day used up.

Reverse smallpox revenge. RIP in peace.

So this is how it ends

Look at the bright side of life, at least when it inevitably jumps to France after David "Absolutely Haram" Cameron opens the borders completely about 90% of Cheeki Breeki will be removed world wide. Also, 6/7ths of humanity.

But eyes on the prize here.

I'm detecting high levels of North Korea in this thread. New North Korea thread?

NONE WILL USURP DPRK THREAD TITULAR TITLE, 100% OF DUCHIES OWNED, ABSOLUTE CROWN AUTHORITY, ULTIMOGENITURE MASTER RACE

SITHRACK'S GONNA HAVE TO GET IN FUCKING LINE NOW!

METALSLIMEHUNT HAS JOINED THE COALITION AGAINST YOU

-THIS MESSAGE HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE IRRESISTIBLE COMRADERY OF THE BAY 12 LEGION OF THE PEOPLE'S LIBERATION-

[martinuzz]

Today, the Polish president put his signature under a law that cripples the Constitutional Court.
Henceforth, descisions can only be made by the Constitutional Court with a 2/3ds majority, instead of what used to be standard 50%+ majority.

Also, 13 out of 15 judges will henceforth need to be present to make valid descisions, instead of what used to be nine.

Combine this with the fact that two weeks ago, 5 judges that served during the previous government have been fired, and replaced with 5 judges who are loyal to the new government's party, and you can see this will cripple the proper functioning of the controlling task that the constitutional court should have in accordance with the Trias Politica. The five new judges will almost always be able to block any controversial descision that the court wants to make. Either by vote, or by abscence.

To top things off, a new term has been added to the law, for passing a verdict. Henceforth, there need to be minimally three months in between a filed request, and a verdict in the matter. This prohibits the Court's judges from acting quickly if needed.

On the bright side, a lot of Polish people are outraged at this course of events, and it is not expected that this sway from the path of the constitutional state will last very long.

Sultan Erdogan: Let's be more like Hitler's Germany

[Egan_BW]

who thought this was a good idea.

[IronyOwl]

To be fair, Hitler's Germany did work really well at first. Then it fell prey to the same issues as everything run by somebody who figures the solution to all problems is for them to be in charge of everything forever.
