telegram. I subscribed to the popular channels of both sides. can get faster news than the mainstream medias.

Dude, if you don't agree with me, at least you can attack my arguments by stating your counterarguments. I believe that's much more useful.

Anyway, I am part of the quite early Internet Netscape, geocities, excite, Hotmail, Google etc generation, if you understand what I mean. Quite possible, I've lived through the whatever 4 generations you're talking about. But it's not useful for me to talk about that. So I stop at that.

they did. But there're at least 2 footages showing them literally 0 distance from tanks, placing the ammos. There's another crazy footage of a guy climbing up an embankment and shot at a tank within maybe like less than 5m head-on.

I am going to get downvoted for this but yeah, this is kind of expected. We think that they will lose customers. Yeah they will lose us but they don't care. We're not part of the market that they're building on. Their markets are those who depends on them, those that can't live without them. And they don't care about about our generation that much because we are part of the experimental generations when they tested the market. The new generation are their targets because that's are what they're exposed to when they grow up.

Google is a good example as a case study. They took really long time to figure out how to make money. Instead of using ads banners like its counterparts during its time, it stayed on providing free services, Gmail, maps etc, so that we'll get hooked to them. It's only once we're hooked to them that they start changing things leaving the next gen with no much choice.

I see Russia's s need for survival the same way when Japan was sanctioned during WW2. Japan didn't survive simply because they can't sustain a long war, where they can't replenish their resources fast enough.

For Russia to even survive, they need to find allies quickly so they can sustain in the long run. I think they see that in China. However Russia will need to stay dormant for quite sometimes, because they won't be able to fight head-on against the backer of Europe, the US. Russia will simply lose. They need to passively maintaining their power while piggyback on China for support.

And rubble is worthless, no doubt about that. What they'll do now is to rebuilt their East-based economy, by piling up large amount of reserve currency, such as Yuan. They have been trying to persuade other countries to do the same by reducing their dependency on the US Dollar. They others need to do that for their plan to work. It doesnt seem to work, at least for now.

Anyway what I found interesting is not about Russia but the emergence of India. India's boldness to defy the call for Russia's sanction and to take advantage of Russia's desperation to sell their resources is simply brazen and unheard of. I think the Ukraine conflict has incidentally propel India as a serious emerging country, announcing that they have their own projected goals instead of being forced to choose side.

The EU will think now Russia is their enemy. But Russia is not even that powerful if we pull nuclear capability out of the equation. But their alliance with the East will be the real problem as it may accelerate the creation of a more powerful China and ironically revitalise the dying Russia, which in the end will actually strengthen them.

This is why The US/EU was not able to crumble Russian economy and stop their advance in Ukraine after the sanctions took place. The didn't expect that China and surprisingly India, and Turkey (to some extent) will come to the rescue. Although Russia was definitely hit hard by the sanction, they manage to reverse the damages by redirecting their resources to the East instead. They have now formally change their policy to Looking/dealing East.

If Hamas is advocating for that, why haven't they held a single election since 2006

You have to ask Palestinian Authority (PA) for that, not Hamas. Hamas has won both Gaza and the West Bank, but PA refuse to relinquish it's power and forcefully remain to govern the West Bank.

It was Abu Mazen (Mahmoud Abbas) that delayed and then cancel the election since that. Most probably because of his internal political struggle within Fatah itself, and he's afraid that Hamas will win again and prove the irrelevance of Fatah amongst the Palestinians.

Anyway, the Israel is happy that Abu Mazen stay because they need a weak leader as puppet that govern the brittle West Bank. As long as the weak Fatah remains, Hamas will also remain to be (designated as) a terrorist org, so they won't be able to bring about the cause of Palestinian people to the negotiation table.

With a population 1/7 of Ukraine, the GDP is 1/3 of Ukraine - not bad at all.

I don't agree with you. But damn. you're downvoted for doing what you like.

Open source can be sold/commercialised. I think you're confusing between FOSS and open source.

The camera are already there. They use AI as a mechanism to of auto-detecting the act.

The cameras would be able to automatically send the images to enforcers, meaning officers would no longer have to look through hours of CCTV footage, the publication added.

yep. Banana pi also use Windows-only Flashing Software. but that depends on the chip used, if I am not mistaken.

Not to be pedantic but I'd to clarify one aspect that not many people know.

He was right, except for one. At least from the perspective of those Muslim Arab leaders:

Our God is not theirs.

Islam is an Abrahamic religion, regarded by the Muslim as a continuation of the Abrahamic religions before it. So the muslim regard themselves as having the same god as the Jews and the Christians. Thus, the prophets of the Jewish religion (and even the prophets of the Christianity, Jesus) are also regarded as prophets in Islam. Many of them are mentioned in Quran in good faith. The main difference is the jewish doesn't recognize Muhammad as their prophet while the Muslim regards Muhammad as the last prophet in addition to those before him.

I'd recommend Orange Pi 5 plus. It's much more expandable than OP 5.

She's married to a British. Provided that she's still married, she can apply for spouse visa, no?

it is a statement of individual humanity.

it matters that then.

After a two and a half hours, the standoff came to an end when a bin was pulled up beside the carriage, giving the animal a platform on which to disembark.

The feline appeared unbothered as it alighted the train, according to station staff, who described it as “swaggering off” into the night as though it had other places to be.

Do you really know what you are talking about? I think you're bullshitting. We are talking about propriety client which doesnt modified the source codes of the server.

You're brainwashed

I suspect they are part of a team, coming here to brainwash us.

In my country we have an old proverb which can be directly translated to: You can't straighten up a wet (cloth) thread no matter how hard you try. I don't know how scientific that is, but the message it implies: When thing is wrong, whatever rhetorical bullahit you throw in to justify your wrongdoings, it will still be wrong.
