    Noticing on my monitor that it's more blue if I tiptoe and look down, and it's obviously green when looking at below. I think a better way to standardize this without too much vari…

    Why would one of the most popular languages in the world not have a word for "bribe"? Seems a bit condescending, implying Russians can't tell the difference between a "bribe" and c…

    You're comparing apples to oranges here. The USA is supposed to be capitalistic, free market, yada yada. China doesn't make that claim. The main point the comment you replied to is…
