$8 for a McFlurry sounds absurd

There are some things that do change. In my case, it says my window manager is sway when it is actually river. So certain things will stop working as expected if it is not maintained. This is different from a game, because as systems change, it doesn’t affect how the game works if the platform it runs on can be emulated. In a sense, the game is still being updated because the emulators required to use it are being updated.

Might as well block me too while you’re at it

Russia can then ingest Ukraine, continue to seed political distrust in Western countries and then potentially start another war in Europe a few years later.

Holy shit this is the most mapgame-brained comment of all time. You mean Russia will get enough war score to annex Ukrainian territories, wait a few years for aggressive expansion to die down, spend some admin points to press the “sow discontent” button, then war when the casus belli is ready? Like a classic EU4 blob?

Stop gaming and read some books.

I’m not against bloat, I just want it to be MY bloat

The Luke Skywalker one? Yes. Notorious shitlib

At that point, we may as well just return to monke and speak in grunts and ooks.

Russia is the biggest reason the baltics joined.

The Baltic states joined in 2004. Long before Putin was made into a pariah, and Russia was still seen as part of the West and publicly aspiring to join NATO

I wish I could upvote something twice

57th and 1/2th street

But it excludes asexual people /s

This is making me reassess Russia’s prospects in an all out war with NATO. If they can’t supply Ukraine alone as it is, how will they supply a war machine for an entire continent when trade is even more limited?

How else can it be interpreted?

Exponential increase that has been slow for decades, but is just now starting to ramp up?

“Fuck it, we ball”

Walmart frozen burritos. They are incredibly cheap, by weight almost comparable to cheap staples like pasta or rice. I can toast them on the pan and add some fire hot sauce. Tastes good. Easy to make. Inexpensive. Only downside is that there’s no way it’s good for you.

What are the odds Elon would bring it back if pressed?

That is… Mind blowing

How many boosters did you get?

Because history is never the result of good or bad intentions, as much as propaganda would try and convince you otherwise

It’s hardly a whataboutism if I’m simply pointing out the selective outrage that give people a skewed and one-sided view of reality. I wouldn’t have to bring up Assange if people gave him half as much attention, something that could actually help lead to his freedom and do something instead of demonizing happenings you have no control over aside from starting WW3.
