Well, he doesn’t need a many as he used to…

No pity. If they don’t go, that means some one else has to do it. It’s the ultimate in selfishness.

This is not Viet Nam. They are being invaded. If they don’t believe in their country they should give up their citizenship.

My Gen Z son says these are Alphas and he doesn’t want to be associated with them.

At the point, pretty much all of the Black Sea Fleet is “submarines”.

I suppose that depends on your point of view.

I think it’s important to understand that, no matter how big these numbers get, Russia will not stop. Putin will sacrifice every man, woman, and child in both counties to maintain his fantasy of “winning” this war. The only thing that will stop him will be the inability to continue.

Turning office space into living space is often mentioned in discussions like this. It should be noted that converting the space is not as easy as it seems. In particular, moving the plumbing infrastructure to support individual bathrooms and kitchens is extremely challenging and it makes some projects impracticable.

You don’t think that Lemmy and Reddit can both fail to meet expectations?

This is clearly by design.

Yeah, that’s the official name, but I’ll stick to the APC designation. It carries troops. It’s armored. It does not have a tank-level main gun. It’s an armored personnel carrier. A good one, but an APC, none the less.

For anyone who doesn’t get the significance, these crazy cats took out a modern main battle tank with an armored personnel carrier. That’s like if the Bismark was sunk by the Titanic.

As an ethnic Pole, I feel like it’s important for me to call this a jerk move. Like the ukrainians have it too easy?

That does not look like it’ll pop right out with a little bondo.

I mean, if you’re being invaded, doesn’t anything you do to fight back count as “defense”?

I know how everyone just wants to pipe up and say, “well it didn’t crush me hur hur”, but I actually watched the video. It’s a good record of what went down. I wish it would’ve mentioned Reddit alternatives, but it’s still solid work.

And to anyone who still maintains that the protest has fatally wounded Reddit, look, I’m on your side but Reddit is still the 800 lb gorilla of link aggregation, and most folks still don’t get why they should care about API pricing.

I mean, yeah?

Its especially innocuous if you choose the pronoun on the character screen that you’re are used to using. Or just leave it at default, which is cis gendered. You have to really go out of your way to make this weird.

But Ukraine has its own challenges. Not only is its industrial sector being regularly bombed, but it has to depend upon the West not losing interest. It’s a race to see which happens first: Russian collapse or Western disengagement.

I doubt it’ll turn S. Dakota purple.

Of course, he may not realize that this dries up one of the largest sources of the Unity developers the clients he does care about uses.
