In physics lab we had 2 linear polarizers and by varying their relative angle, could polarize or block all light.
I also used a circular polarizer, but that didn’t feel as polarizing to me.
I get that you’re trying to be snarky, but it doesn’t even make sense to me.
Are you trying to say soviet citizens were starving? Or that they had lots of meat fat and sugar?
First one isn’t a flex for anyone. Second is propaganda far beyond what even OP was suggesting.

I used to pirate games because there was no legal digital distribution. The pirate version I could get faster and wouldn’t hassle me to put the right disk in the drive before I could play.
Then digital distribution got good, DRM got less obnoxious, and malware got meaner.
I used to pirate music for similar reasons.
I didn’t pirate video because the files were too large, and around the time bandwidth caught up, Netflix got good. Now digital video distribution is awful so I pirate video until they solve the fractured storefront problem.
Power seats and mirrors with multiple memory is still a luxury car feature and not mainstream like power windows.
Easy work for a digital archivist.
Music studios didn’t have those in the 1990’s.
The clavinet caused a brief resurgence of interest in the clavichord because it solves the “too quiet” problem of the original.
Just following longstanding studio practice of putting the masters in a vault so you can forget about them.
They’re not used to the risks of bit rot.
Lemmy is too small to need this solution in search of a problem.
I’m laughing at your little meltdown.
Don’t post about crypto if you can’t tolerate mild mockery.
LOL cry harder
