  • To be fair, the very same thing happens with Linux, when you install updates but don't restart services (or, god forbid, the whole system). Really weird tiny issues accumulate until I am fed up and hit reboot.

  • Imperialism is good if the other team does it? Come on.

    Besides, nobody was going to attack Russia. 1. they have nukes, 2. everyone who tried in the past has lost due to geographic and military realities, 3. they were supplying (and still are!) lots of fossil fuels to Europe, and 4. they have nukes.

    All other recent conflicts near european Russia like Georgia, Moldova (both Russian imperialist aggressions) and Yugoslavia (it's complicated) were limited, minor skirmishes on more or less neutral territory. Hardly a threat to Russia as a nation or even its role in Europe.

  • I think the key word is "practical". Both the mainland and Taiwanese governments are not stupid, they know they have to acknowledge the status quo for day to day business like customs and immigration.

  • Mine is a small mokka/Turkish coffee pot with a removable handle. On a recent trip, someone bought a portable espresso thingy and it was a really nice alternative to the bottom-of-the-shelf cheap instant coffee we had otherwise. But to be honest, non-terrible instant coffee is fine for me, just don't get the ultra cheap crap.

    At the end (or rather beginning) of the day I settle for "hot, caffeinated, does not make me want to spit it out". I'd rather drink the shitty cheapest possible instant coffee on a cool trip with nice people than the other way round.

  • Coffee. If you are a coffee drinker, get a way to make half-decent coffee.

    Or tea, or hot chocolate if you hate caffeine. Nothing beats the feeling of a hot cup of something after a short, noisy, miserable night.

  • This. You need high conectration deet or icardin, and you need to basically rub it all over your exposed skin and clothes. Then it works quite ok.

    The best method is to apply bug spray and make sure someone else in your camp does not use bug spray. I swear the fuckers take the path of least resistance.

  • Oh wow. Yeah, that is on another level. I remember a court case that basically ruled " you cannot really get rid of the fuckers, having a few of them in an old building is not considered damage ". But 50, holy fuck.
