I am ukrainian and I confirm.

There are brotherly ties, relatives, but it's not a healthy family, russians always thought they are the only ones that matter, the rest is deviation.

Now it's so much more clear, ukrainians who were russian speaking and mildly russian friendly now hate russia more than anyone, being bombarded does that, they feel betrayed.

They are saying that they only destroy westernised deviations, liberating true pure Great Russia. Some Russians really believe that. Turns out this "deviation" is the entire Ukrainian nation, tens of millions of humans.

Software which may be made illegal.

Plenty of ukrainians speak russian at least sometimes. Even now. Freely. It is possible to speak russian in Ukraine more freely than to speak russian in totalitarian Russia.

Some ukrainians liked russia, most of them stopped. Some might still do, but out of hundreds I know, from east and west, north and south, not a single one does.

Inertial systems are all equal in a certain relevant here sense, if there is no need for account for your movement relative to Sun, Galaxy, CMB, or anything else. Yes, in this sense, Sun also rotates around Earth.

It was just the peak of the US, in some aspects anyway. With all my appreciation to all the good things that the US still does.

Strangely, in chess, there is almost never a man category. There is everybody and there is women. wikipedia . See also motivations why and arguments against. It's tricky.

You still, presumably, use HTTP for your internet needs, even though facebook totally works over it.

What's the problem with a protocol for chat?

As of now, accounts of their instance have thousands of followers.

Yes, and they also affectionate and care about their group in some weird way. I wish people would learn from cats!

Good question, every war ends in some kind of negotiation, even for surrender. I think when Russia loses, Putin is unlikely to keep power, and some sort of agreement will happen without him.

Very interesting. How likely is it to be approved though, given the opposition? Alao, what about the rest of the EU countries?

Could you explain in what way these societies had communist governments? I am not saying you are wrong, just that it's good to have it spelled out.

Actually I like the very fact that it is paid. Supporting the developer, and some sort of accountability.

Also, after trying connect, liftoff, jerboa (all perfectly good apps), etc I find that sync is most smooth and customizable.

Freedom of information should be a human right, it allows to build consensus crucial for social cohesion. A bit like open access in academia, which is getting more traction recently. But unless this right is guaranteed stealing from authors destroys knowledge industry as such. Except that maybe it helps to transform predatory business models.

crucially, debugging allows you to learn so much more. And reading documentation after the problem is solved by debugging is so much more interesting!

I find that anti-comunist sentiments in Poland, Ukraine, and some other formerly soviet countries usually refer to the soviet state, not communism as such. It is actually anti-soviet and anti-tankie.

Soviet occupation left very bitter memories, and poisoned any potential for communist progressivism in this part of the world.

This should be considered while criticising anti-communism.

So I have a cat chipped 15 years ago, and she can still operate modern devices with it - open doors, get food from a robot.

Not all tech goes obsolete fast, there are legacy compatibility layers!

While it is true, there are also some factors which make people converge on some platforms. Factors beyond simply presence of other people. Like technical features.

Glaciers are just flowing and retreating in summer. That is the major reason some stuff reappears this time of year. Also there is slower process due to climate change of course.
