You probably got it but "came second" might sound like he came second to the other person in the picture. The couple who got the gold isn't in this comparison image.
I don't know. The article quotes the Russian ambassador saying it needs to integrate with the banks and whatever systems are in place currently for each country, but that doesn't necessarily mean SWIFT as well. But even if it's a direct competitor, the possibility of future SWIFT integration has to be considered. I'd be surprised if they blanket never wanted it to happen.
Sure, so swap it out with something that costs more than 3K.
What if you want to buy a A100, it's a graphics card for doing maths on your computer, it costs 5000 euro. Maybe I'm using it for my AI boyfriend and I think it's embarrassing and don't want anyone to know, or I'm making political cartoons with 3D software and need a lot of VRAM.
Maybe I'm buying very many hijabs. Maybe I'm buying solar panels and don't want to randomly selected to be bothered by the cannabis inspector or I bought a new projector explicitly to give to someone else, but I don't want to be bothered by the telly license inspector -- who at least in Ireland is allowed to invade your privacy and inspect your home looking for projectors. It's not illegal to own a projector and not pay the license, it's only illegal to connect and use a projector without paying the license. If you buy it as a gift for someone who already has some sort of screen and is paying the license, you haven't done anything wrong and don't deserve the scrutiny.
Maybe I bought a statue and I don't want the government to know who I idolise.
Maybe I bought furniture and I don't want the government to know in case the person who made the furniture turns out to be the wrong ethnicity or religion or political affiliation in the future.
Maybe I bought a auto or bike to mod for use on my own property and don't want the government to notify all the relevant patent holders "just in case".
It stops you from spending your money anonymously. Why is it the state's business if you want to buy a hijab? Fine, they're illegal to wear outside, but if it's legal to wear inside I should be allowed to own one without scrutiny. But I also don't trust the regime that outlawed them in the first place to let me do that.
Okay so you created a meme where you made someone say a popular opinion you disagree with. Then you made someone rebuttal with "You aren't human" and the subject replying with "You got me". What is the joke exactly? How should that be interpreted? Because I interpret it as "People who disagree with me aren't humans". Do you not see how that is both unfunny and offensive?
No, Iran probably wouldn't believe them, but if they get some money or something else from it that they can eat until the USA reneges then that's good enough. And probably whatever penalty will actually be enforced, the USA likes some decorum. If it isn't enforced then it's a good PR for Iran and anyone who didn't act as a guarantor for USA.
I'm arguing against the user saying Biden was left with no choice. I think Biden's regime had a good route towards fixing the mistake, and chose not to take it. I'm trying to say 'Trump' isn't to blame, but the USA, including the USA of today.
Runke is the verb form. Runk is the noun form. You can say "en runk".
