Well, true, Russia has a long history so I was overly broad. Aggressor in almost all conflicts is more accurate. In WW2 it was the second major aggressor of course. WW1 Germany dec…

> I wonder what you mean I thought I was clear? I mean the western corruption isn't in any shape or form comparable to Russian corruption, and how it pervaded all the Eastern Bloc.…

Yes, but he has access to free information, so can easily check what is the current and historical Russian contribution to the world. At that point, siding with Russia is of course…

All countries distancing themselves from Russia and aligning with the EU have managed to reduce corruption. It's a winning formula, so will very likely happen with Ukraine too afte…

He's spreading overtly obvious Russian propaganda, he's clearly very aware of it and just prefers to take the side of evil.

I've been in quite many Telegram chats, none of which has enabled it. For most practical purposes you can just consider Telegram not to have e2e since it's no good if it's not used…

> With amount of oil tankers just burning out in the open the "carbon emission" goals seem like a joke If you refer to the burning Russian tankers in the Azov, that should reduce e…

Please don't just provide LLM answers in human discussions. It's rude.

> Yes. Beyond that, if they didn't work they wouldn't be used. My usual experience from London was extremely leaky single pane sliding windows, that's why the question. To be fair,…

Can sliding windows be properly insulated? In general cold is a bigger deal in Europe than warmth, and will continue to be so. German style tilting windows close as tightly as the …

What nonsense. QR codes exist but seem quite rare around here, it's definitely almost all proper menus.

Would they be given their own credit card, or would it be under the parents? Over here minors can't enter into debt contracts like credit cards, so it'd be a direct debit until the…

All businesses based in Russia should be boycotted, also second-hand (so businesses that deal with other businesses based in Russia). If I knew someone was sending money to Russia,…

I can't allow LLMs write my messages in any language I'm fluent in. They just don't sound like me at all. It would feel dirty and dishonest to send that slop out. They can be good …

There are very good map alternatives, like Organic Maps and HERE WeGo. But Google's place data is such a good moat that I'm also still using it.

I disagree. Their spam filtering has been top notch for me. Sometimes spam does get through, but marking that as spam has made sure the next ones of the same are flagged correctly.…
