Not American but from EU, have a 3 day survival box with water and food.

There is a real chance Russia at some point attacks, I don't think they will drop a nuke any time. But they might try to sabotage the electricity network or financial system. So if a large (cyber) attack happens my family has enough for 3 days, a week if we have to.

Off course I knew this, but it still blew my mind a little.

There was a time before Windows where a lot of people used MS-DOS and it was all terminal. Maybe computers where less popular back in those days because of the learning curve, but still many people used a PC with just the terminal.

Even with millennials (1981 to 1996) there is a big difference when you where born.

If you are an early millennial you grew up with MS-DOS, so you had to learn the terminal to get anything done. You probably had your first smartphone after you where 25.

If you are a late millennial you grew up with Windows XP and probably had a smartphone as a teen.

Would you really want to bet the future of your country on Boeing making something? They dropped the ball on passenger airplanes and a spacecraft

Hijacking your commet to add this

I don't know much about this stuff, but I have been listening to a ton of podcasts about the war, geopoliticks etc.

From what I learned, France and the UK have nukes, but not the type you can launch from a submarine. (Unfortunately)

In these crazy times we need to stick together and make sure they can't break us. 🇳🇱

It's the same with other EU countries, NATO article 5 has been triggered once, after 911. We came to help and lost many soldiers in Afghanistan etc. Now Russia is a major thread to Europe and the US is actively helping Russia.

Tesla probably pays a lot more for insurance these days. Insurance companies are pretty evil, that works against Tesla in this case.

I'm getting pretty old so I have experienced multiple waterfall projects. The comic should be

You want to go to mars You spend 3 months designing a rocket You spend 6 months building a rocket You spend a month testing the rocket and notice there is a critical desing flaw.

You start over again with a new design and work on it for 2 months You spend another 6 months building it You spend 2 months testing

Rocket works fine now, but multiple other companies already have been to Mars, so no need to even go anymore.

Hungary is definitely not going to be part of NATO2

To add to this, Putin can recruit from the poorest regions for a while, but at some point he needs to get men from the larger cities. The last thing he wants is protests from Moskou etc. The average person from Moskou hadn't had that much negative effects from the war yet. But if you, your son or father is forced to the battlefield it's a different story.

Pretty easy to find on YouTube, but to me (non native speaker) the audio is not good enough to really hear it. https://youtu.be/OjMFTagD7k0

I'm 40+ and hope it will not happen to me any time soon.

I'm probably the only one but I think it looks pretty cool.

I said it before and I'll say it again, Linux mint is the work horse of all the distros! Its easy, it usually just works, it's the distro you pick when you want to get work done.

I have been using Linux for 2 decade's now and have tried all the major distros. Somehow I keep getting back to mint because I don't spend too much time to get it just right, and I actually spend time on my work.

Didn't know that type, now I might have to get one

Let me give you some real advice, buy a Casio G-SHOCK, pick a version with tiny solar panels. Seriously, they will last a very long time, no need to change a battery or synch it. Strapped my watch on like a decade ago, still works without any maintenance or anything.

Lemmy kind of sucks, that's why I like it. Reddit to me was like beer and Lemmy is like non alcoholic beer. If stop drinking a non alcoholic beer is fine, but I don't really need one every day.

That is actually not relevant, it's whataboutism. The fact that someone does something bad doesn't give you any right to just make your own rules.

Otherwise you could also say I should kill that friend that drove home after one beer too many, because he could have potentially killed someone.
