I was gonna joke that you could show up as a raging trigger-happy and bloodthirsty gun-fanatic. But in the current climate, that is probably a rather qualifying factor.
In all seriousness, if this is important to you there is no way around doing your own research. There are always ways.

Germany has quite the culture of draft dodging.
I remember all kinds of stories. Smoking like a chimney and getting drunk as fuck before and dressing like a tourist with a camera as you enter the mandatory meeting thing.
Of course the criteria to get drafted are different through places and time, but try to figure out the process, and what would eliminate you from getting drafted.
Also, it’s literally in one of those declassified CIA handbooks, that one of the ways to hijack an organisation from the inside is to be incompetent as fuck. Eager, but incompetent. Report any meaningless thing that technically is report worthy, to clog up the pipelines, make meetings way too long and talk about meaningless details.

Yes, please! Wired headphones also really don’t last long if used daily as a built-in mic replacement.
- Comment on pwned: do you pronounce it as "pohned" "pawned" or "owned" 1 week ago:
Yup, I also think of chess when I read it, so pawned - turned into a pawn, demoted to the weakest piece, etc.
If I read owned, then it’s owned.shocking content
Pineapple on pizza is correct
vim is better than emacs
debian is the best linux distro

I don’t think domination is actually intelligent or smart.
- Comment on Are Memoirs and Autobiographies partly fictional? How the f do people remember so much detail? 1 week ago:
On a related not, I don’t remember the best resources I’ve come across, but here’s something for a bit of an idea:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_errorLegally, there is the concept of contemporaneous notes in many countries. Meaning if you write something down shortly after the event occured it can have legal validity.
There is also hypnotherapy, EMDR, and other forms of therapy, where many people can access memories that they couldn’t. I was surprised myself how many memories I could access with EMDR.
I find the concept appears to be similar to meditation and lots of sensory information + association. How stuff felt, sounded, smelled, where you felt in your body etc.
Less related, but there’s also Method of Loci etc. to remember lots of very specific things
- Comment on We always hear/read about Goverments cencoring the internet. What is something that the US is not knowing is being censored? 2 weeks ago:
LOL
pretty much went the same path as you. Tried some other search engines (don’t have a searxng one though). And it’s only that IRC log. So, personally couldn’t find any evidence. But also doesn’t seem that important, since the concept appears to be the most important part. - Comment on We always hear/read about Goverments cencoring the internet.

I hesitate to post both of these, because I don’t wanna get into conspiracy stuff. But both are not well known, and I hear a lot it keeps getting deleted.
Many questions about the case of: Gabriela Rico Jiménez
Warning: pretty dark rabbit hole
And quite a lot of stuff pointing towards Ghislaine Maxwell having been a reddit supermod: https://www.reddit.com/r/conspiracy/comments/r45a5n/here_is_the_evidence_that_reddit_user_maxwellhill/
- Comment on What's the best way to ease getting back in shape after years of little to no exercise? 2 weeks ago:
I think walking once a day, even if it’s just for 15 minutes is one of the most essential things that most people can do.
Just bear in mind, you probably need it all: mobility, stretches, strengthening. I’d guess especially your core muscles and harmstrings are short and weak and gonna need some attention.
Yoga is incredible for me. And I find it easier to follow-through if I do it in a small group or 1-on-1 to just listen to whatever the person in front says and follow.
- Comment on Sometimes I feel nothing will change for the better and I feel frustrated about it. 2 weeks ago:
The way I see it, no matter how bad things are, it won’t distract me from the fact that every good thing matters. If not for me, if not for other people, then people who will come after. I’m only one person, but at least trying to do my part and being grateful for the things I have and receive, be it friends, a bed, food, a roof, a fun moment. And I can still accept the terrible state of so many things also.
Or in the words of David Graeber: “The ultimate hidden truth of the world is that it is something that we make, and could just as easily make differently.”

Definitely up there. I didn’t include it because others mentioned it already when I wrote this.
- Comment on Germany urges Israel to show 'restraint' in Gaza 3 weeks ago:
This is as meaningless as gently blowing smoke away with your mouth when your house is on fire.
Where are the sanctions? Where is the dispelling of diplomats? Where is the ending of Trade and military support? Where is the independent verification of genocidal Israeli narratives?

There is so much material out there from people in the CIA itself telling how the cannon of all this stuff is them making people believe that shit, e.g. area 51 to distract from actual weapon testing.
