Some of the Portland parking garages downtown have them as well.

Yeah, then some of the wrong people might vote. /s

It should be noted that the evidence there is that a helicopter involved in the raid took off from a beach near the pier. So slim to none. And it doesn't even make sense, how would the pier be useful for a military operation?

It's worth looking at the timeline here. The Trump Administration had no problem doing something that was obviously immoral. It got canceled by the Biden Administration and an investigation started. Just noting the timeline because I still see people saying there's no difference between the two politicians.

Wall Street Journal: Mueller Doesn’t Find Trump Campaign Conspired With Russia

That was Bill Barr's summary of the Mueller Report. The news article you posted was written with zero knowledge of the actual report. When the actual report was released later, the summary was criticized as trying to form a false narrative that intentionally omitted important pieces of the report. He was spinning it to provide cover for his boss, in effect. Much of this rested on Mueller not declaring Trump guilty of a crime, but as was described in the report, this was always considered to be outside of the scope of Mueller's appointment.

Badly mauled is a weird way to say 15% larger than before the war started

Larger in soldiers, not in weaponry. And that was achieved through conscription, which means pulling young people in a rapidly aging society away from some of the most productive years of their lives. And of course many of those young people will sadly return to civilian life injured or not at all.

We'll see where things go now that Republicans have stopped blocking aid to Ukraine. Having the main supplier of military aid blocked blocked by legislative constipation does tend to make the front lines harder for Ukraine, yes.

Those are the 2022 estimates, before they were knee deep in a war. More up-to-date estimates from the IMF put them at #6. And that #6 is quite distant from the US.

Russian position says that foreign interference from the US contributed to Euromaidan (not respecting sovereignty and independence), thus, the Budapest Memorandum is null and void.

Nah, this was just a reconned excuse. Russia invaded Crimea just a week after the 2014 revolution. The moment a hostile government was in Kyiv, Russia was intent on ripping up the Budapest Memorandum.

Russia is more like 8th, and Ukraine is backed by multiple countries that outrank Russia.

And Russia will call damn near anyone a Nazi if it's in their interest.

Yeah, I've been learning some nushell. If you're dealing with data, it's just a great tool. So many sharp edges in the POSIX shell come from it being stringly typed, so having a strongly typed shell is extremely helpful.

If you want to skip having a big ass bag full of liquids, many products are available in solid form. Toothpaste comes in tablets, shampoo comes in bars, and shave lotion also is available in bars. Then you can save your liquid quota for what really matters, like a wide assortment of personal lubricants.

I mean, I feel like I'm probably not going to be shot or macheted while in flight, so that's nice. But yeah, I know it's not great.

Tertiary education: IT (software developer)

Same theme for my LPT, different area. Are you having a problem? Housing? Tuition? Health issue? Ask about it! Likely you're one of many and we (support staff) have systems in place to point you in the right direction. If you're the first to run into a problem, we need to know so we can fix it. Don't worry about bothering us, that's what we're there for. Many students wait until they have no other choice but to get in contact when it would have been easier for everyone if they had brought it up sooner. I totally understand the impulse, I've been that kid.

We have a bidet on every toilet, but not a squatty potty. We tried one at our last place, but it quickly got really gross.

Three bathrooms, three plungers. Never be caught without one.

That's a plungin'
