The communist party of Russia is a minority party in opposition, it's not governing at all. That's United Russia, which holds over 70% of the seats of parliament. United Russia is not communist. You're very confidently incorrect here.
Well, it's not like you're willing to cut ties with the West and align yourself with Russia either. Instead you're trying to thread the middle ground by keeping your head down and keeping up trade with both. You're not taking a stance, which is exactly why you're not a political world leader.
Wouldn't consider it a world leader, to me it often seems more like they refuse to take a clear stance in world affairs, so they can continue positive relations with authoritarian countries like Russia
Rapid development, but still a lot of extreme poverty and inequality
PCs. Gaming laptops kinda suck IMO, especially their cooling. They also can't really be upgraded and are much more expensive for the performance. For mobile PC gaming I much prefer a Steam Deck.
There have been many times in history when things have been far worse, so no, it's not the worst. But many things are in decline right now. Democracy, digital privacy, trustworthiness of information, global peace, climate, the environment... humanity has to get back on track soon or the future looks pretty grim.
Was pretty much the other way round for me, realized around age 25 or so that I'd spend the later part of my life feeling like shit with constant back problems if I didn't get out more. So these days I make a point of getting out on my bike or going on longer walks at least a couple times a week. Not for looks or women, but for myself.
Aren't Trump's lawyers currently arguing in front of the supreme court that it would have been perfectly legal for Biden to do so, him being immune from all criminal prosecution while president?
If you have a short-ish email address, someone might have just set it as their recovery address by mistake. I also have a pretty old, short gmail address and people have registered it as their recovery address before, so I would get mails whenever they logged in on a new device etc. Don't think those were phishing attempts, just people being technologically inept.
I've read that according to polls, it might sway about 6% of Trump voters. If that actually happens then yes, it would matter a lot for the outcome of the election. That's a big if though, so I guess we'll see.
Anything is theoretically possible on a closed source operating system. But it's not likely. First of all, this "feature" is only compatible with "Copilot+" PCs, so your system probably won't even get it. It also would run foul of privacy laws in in many places. Especially if they did that while claiming the screenshots only stay local. That'd be a huge lawsuit waiting to happen.
There was some issue with the picture database causing the frontend to break. The admin has been absent since then, apparently prioritizing some personal issues. There is an effort to create a replacement for the instance, in cooperation with a group called the fediverse foundation. It's currently unclear if the admin will give over the instance or whether an entirely new one will have to be created.
Some of the first swine flu cases in humans in the US were in Michigan, so Biden being "sent to Detroit" makes sense. Way more than it would for Covid.
