Fiber is dirty cheap, just saying. If you consider externalities, much cheaper than starlink. You just want us to subsidise your lifestyle.

Releasing a new full price sandbox game instead of keeping supporting the old one (even if it's mostly in the form of DLCs) is not good for the gamers.

Considering the observed behaviour of the self designated militias in the US, the army would only need to say that there's a gathering of whatever group the militia opposes on main street and then gun down anyone that shows up in tactical gear. Even without the hyperbole, 2A people are too damaged by their desire to be in their personal action movie to be effective in any kind of war.

Ireland systematically trying to make the EU a race to the bottom is hilarious /s

They won't even return the occupied part of Cyprus. Honestly I'm surprised that Russia still didn't try to use that one for propaganda, since the Turkish claims are very similar to Russian ones and it's a wedge between two NATO members.

You are supposed to get a credit so the bank can effectively own you.

Unlike Mongolia, most of other ICC members have working courts and can't claim they are a Russian vassal and not a sovereign country.

The initial phase of colonisation in Africa (until the 17th century) involved mostly religious propaganda, unequal trade and miltary alliances with existing political powers in Africa. Look, for example, how Portugal, and later the Netherlands, slowly eroded the sovereignty of the Kindgom of Kongo and compare it to what China is doing today.

TLDR: African leaders are making the exact same mistakes with China as their predecessors did with the European powers.

It was a joke to make the point that vim can be the easiest tool to use if you are trying to do a complex task.

He wasn't legally allowed to buy the plane because of the sanctions, so it wasn't technically his plane.

 

An unspecified technical problem forced the Rio-bound Boeing aircraft to turn back shortly after takeoff from Amsterdam. A spokesperson for Dutch air traffic control said the plane requested to land as a precaution and turned around over Belgium some 40 minutes after takeoff.

 

A new study published in the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics suggests the satellites are emitting "unintended" radiation from the electronics onboard the satellites.

These low-frequency radio waves, are being picked up by telescopes designed to scan that frequency range. That's because this range also happens to be instrumental to deep space observations.

 

A Harvard behavioral scientist, who has extensively studied honest behavior, has been accused of fabricating study results — and yes, the jokes write themselves.
