What's so difficult to believe about this? Why would it be fake?

There are people who have seen Russia collapse twice, and if we're lucky, there will be people who see it three times.

Smartphones are basically magic at this point, especially the system on chip type devices.

Computers had, and mostly still have, a bunch of discrete components you could identify, smartphones are a tiny magic box on a board, with everything else connected to it. The photos they take are amazing, too.

It's weird reading work by authors like Asimov, where people travel between planets as a matter of routine, and we have sentient robots, but not mobile phones.

Savage.

They did say "official" though.

Except precedented is definitely a word that is used, particularly in the legal field, so the dictionary would definitely win that argument.

Dude's arguing with the dictionary.

I wonder what the long term plan here was? Seize a patch of land through violent means, then what? Just assume the government will let you keep it?

I feel a lot has been lost in translation there.

I'm not sure I would have been the same.

You just copied the original headline, this isn't on you.

I really want to know the actual story here.

Fucking legendary.

What was the insult, watermelon seller?

One issue with the holiday home thing, they tend to be in quite remote places where there are very few job opportunities, because that's where people go on holiday.

Suicide, or spend the rest of your life in a Russian prison?

Yeah, entirely possible this was a genuine suicide.

How would they even have that ability?

Yeah, I'd have thought there would be a lot more unions.

I've used firearms before, including doing smallbore shooting, it can be a lot of fun.

But they're also a massive responsibility, and I don't plan to actually own one.

Phobias are, by definition, irrational.
