Blaming a user for falling for malicious practices designed by multibillion dollars companies is like blaming the victim of a hit and run. "It was their fault for using the crosswalk, but the driver was also wrong for not stopping."
If the practices are predatory, blaming the user is excusing the predatory practices. Bragging about how you use something else in that context is doubling down on blaming the user instead of the practices.
So no, I am not illiterate. You ahould have just left off the sentence blaming the victim.
It is a complete crapshoot because it all fepends on whether thechain of people between Putin and the missles are more interested in going out with him.
What I expect to happen with an invasion:
NATO invades and quickly disables a ton of Russian military objectives. This is because Russia is already flailling with Ukraine due to lack of discipline and outdated tech that theybhave mostly lost already. Plus they can't do waves of conscript tactics at a moment's notice.
Putin loses it and tries to launch the missiles knowing it is the end of hos time in power. His military advisors refuse the order and stage a coup, killing Putin and blaming NATO, then fight a half hearted conventional defense for show before negotiating a ceasefire.
But that is just my thought and the risk of a nuclear launch makes it a terrible idea to launch a surprise invasion as some nuclear sub might respond tonthe invasion if their cummunication is cut off.
I either go for about half and call it good or just round it up to the full amount when counting and then not worry too much if some other things are 5-10% higher than they should be.
It isn't like the menu calories are precise. Heck, for a blizzard it could be up to 15% more when served if it is above the cup line.
The important thing is paying more attention to what we are eating, how high in calories things are, and whether we actually know what a portion size is.
I don't think it is controversial, except when it is an all or nothing thing just like the zero carbs crap. A balanced diet will keep you full and includes proteins, fats, carbs, and everything else as long as they are in the right balance.
Crappy diets like the one based on the food pyramid, which had way to many carbs, are the main problem.
I’ve made little to no effort to eat healthier - just less. I can have a blizzard from Dairy Queen if I want, but that’s 1100 calories and then I’ve only got 400 left for something else.
In addition to choosing not to have something in the first place, choosing not to finish something is another great skill. Lowest calorie blizzard is still hundreds of calories, but choosing to eat only half of the smallest size can work.
Definitely a harder habit to change compared to not ordering in the first place when raised to always clean the plate.
Keep in mind that the US's population is comparable to all of Europe and we are bickering over one shared election while also being a bunch of loud jackasses. We don't even think about the rest of the internet while drowning it out.
Actually following up on major efforts like universal healthcare would go a long way to ensuring the Democrats continue to win at the ballot box., since their odds of winning are based entirely on turnout and people are sick of campaign promises being ignored.
