"China's" vaccine was stolen from Canada.

It outright wasn't as effective since Canada hadnt finished working on it.

The only previous thing I saw was a scammy financial, WSB youtuber who hit top views 3 days ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yolCkHT1S_o

Putin is said to have commented, before the invasion, that Russia has a population of conscription aged men of 25 million, this seems to have been their design philosophy of just grinding Ukraine into dust, even if it took millions of Russian lives to do it.

However, that theyre already pulling women prisoners into the meat grinder suggests that number may have been wrong.

Finding an urn with cocoa in it in a sealed egyptian tomb would be among the greatest archeological discoveries.

There is a reason she forged the Green Party into a federal Party. She's an actual leader. Unlike all of the other clowns and the nazi on the federal leadership stage.

Of course, the subsequent leader then used the party as her own damn piggy bank and had the balls to hide behind "discrimination" when caught.

Simple, the original team that made DA:O went off to do other things or was promoted into management where they did well, but couldn't replicate the magic of their OG team.

While thats technically allowed in Canada. When the Conservative party tried to do it under Harper and then-minister Poilievre to start stacking the court system with cronies, every part of the system raised hell enough for evem those religious nutters to back off.

MBAs who contract dev work out to India to make a quick buck without realizing how bad the code they're going to get back usually is.

Shoutout to Raj the QA lead I worked with in India though. That dude's team was thorough.

That's what you think of as him being weird and awkward?

He enslaved his own kids.

To the point that when he was ambassador to France, they noted down that one of his servants (no slavery in France at the time) was obviously related to him and how that was really weird.

Particularly given that the design quality houses a whole slew of critically bad design choices.

Like shock absorber brackets and axel mounts that can't handle simple offroad loads.

Yes. Absolutely.

However, no one has taken the companies that started doing that to task, and now even companies like John Deer have been pulling that shit.

Hell, Monsanto actually took farmers to court on that principle for growing crops that had been naturally cross pollinated with "their" GMO crops using that principle.

I am not disagreeing with you. I am stating what we have allowed the rich fucks to get away with.

Its in the standard terms of service now for the big AAA publishers.

As far as I am aware, most of the game and sofrware companies get around it by stating you're no longer buying a thing, but buying a non-transferrable licence to use the thing but you never actually own anything.

The best way to increase birth rates in advanced countries is: Work life balance. Restore the traditional tax rates on the rich.

In windows 10 you can reenable it, but you have dig a bit in the power management control panel to do so.

Its unfortunate that this thinking has bled over to Linux.

Yup. Its more that she just doesn't like movies in general, and our leisure time is not spent in front of the TV.

Although we(our dnd groups) are working on her since roughly 50% of ttrpgs is references to those two or trek.

Gf is nerdy and loves ttrpgs.

Hasn't seen star wars or lotr.

When they did a deal before, China was getting the gas below cost to Russia. ( https://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/may/21/russia-30-year-400bn-gas-deal-china )

Putin is finding out that China doesn't have allies, it has victims.

Its apparently not that uncommon a move, as according to what I've watched about it, it allows the company using the trick to go public without going through the checks and balances that the FTC usually does.

What is uncommon is that they fucked it up at least twice that I can recall. They were supposed to go public summer 2023.

You're looking at it from the wrong angle.

He wants a tough sentence with jail time.

1. As a technically "first offender" they can argue that it shows obvious bias and get a favourable appeal result.
2. It plays to Putin and other autocrat propaganda. "See how the US actually is, we have the same democracy here" sort of thing.
3. Most importantly, it plays to his cult and to his ego, he gets to stoke dangerous things which very nearly almost worked last time (only thanks to Pence and the few cops who stood up to the mob.) and he gets a ton of attention from his cult for it.
