    I agree, this is probably the best approach. Stop, breathe, apply critical thinking and give it some time to process the information and see how it fits into the big picture. You n…

    Let the politicians play politics. It's bad for business when companies decide to do that. Namecheap might have only a handful of Russian customers to afford to do that, but this w…

    It's more likely that you are being naive, to be politically correct. There hasn't been a single time of crisis in the recorded history where donations hadn't been stolen (and some…

    I don't see a problem with Finland joining NATO on a reciprocal basis; as long as Russia can set up a military base on Cuba. Of course the United States will start a world war befo…

    If you want a short summary of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, I suggest this presentation/speech by John Mearsheimer - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrMiSQAGOS4 - he explains it re…

    I would be very surprised if this happened. This would mean that European economies won't get their invested money back and also won't be able to pay for services. Extremely highly…

    That is exactly my point; you don't dig your own grave. Sanctions are only affective when it hurts someone else, not you. That however proves to be a difficult task in a globalised…

    Probably for the same reason they didn't exclude Five Eyes from SWIFT when they invaded Yugoslavia, Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria and killed over 1,500,000 people in just over…

    The only reason why there isn't a NATO base in Ukraine is because Russia has taken measures to make sure that doesn't happen. NATO pushed you into a war by installing a puppet regi…

    Yes the "rest" of the world knows the "truth". It's just a matter of defining what "the rest" and "truth" mean. In the context of the modern Axis of Evil also known as Five Eyes th…

    How do you comment your NATO countries invading half of Middle East and killing 1.5mil people in just 20 years so that your economy could prosper? Did you consider sanctions then?

    There's being professional and unprofessional in a business environment. Those are the only two choices you have.

    This might come as a shock to a lot of people, but not everyone's goal in life is to be rich.

    I think that's fairly normal. When you learn a concept in a language it's difficult to convey it in a foreign language if you don't have the vocabulary, even if you're a native spe…

    I had to manage email infrastructure for years as part of my job and I really don't see how running your own email server can be a good idea for anyone. Setting it up superficially…

    Ah yes, "self-improvement": - watching videos as 2x the speed - speedreading - listening to audiobook while doing chores I'm sure there's plenty more I'm forgetting here.

    People spend their lives in misery and then go out of their way to try and artificially prolong it. :)
