His death was the moment when Russian state dropped any pretense of being civilized.

It’s also roughly the time when Russia has pivoted from “let’s trade” narrative towards “don’t encroach on our turf” threats. Prior to that there was at least an effort to put on makeup on the Europe facing ass cheek.

You spelled November 16, 2009 wrong.

Heracleum sosnowskyi in Ukraine. Fucking commies decided to start seeding it en-masse for cow feed without even checking whether it would work.

It bitters the milk, making it unusable as feed. It is poisonous and hybridizes with native edible species. Skin contact results in horrible blisters that tend to not heal cleanly. Its juice is toxic and mutagenic.

A war crime in plant wrapping.

Soviet development that was driven purely by economic considerations tends to have all the issues of modern development. Well, except car centric planning, but we know why that wasn’t a consideration ever.

Apartment complexes that didn’t focus just on economy, tended to be way better. And that is missing from modern considerations almost always.

Still, there’s a reason pre-Soviet areas to this day remain some of the most sought out ones.

How exactly does discussion of failures of a society help those who struggle right here right now?

When you see a burning building, it’s not a good time to start a discussion on merits of various building materials. Here’s a bucket, start hauling.

Oh the fucking irony!

Did you lose track of the written words after the first question mark perchance?

Not voting is a vote for the winner by default. I highly doubt that every single person that didn’t vote did so due to being unable to.

No.

If you tar the contents of the two, you’d be unable to attribute the archives to any specific one.

Every bit of code a maintainer accepts becomes their responsibility to maintain. Considering that half the time „improvements” don’t even have tests to help maintaining them, feel free to maintain your own fork.

„How do you know” is such a powerful question.

I especially like the Electrolux one. It’s simple, memorable, and once you see a butt and bikini, you can’t unsee it.

Thanks, I hate it!

I’ve been hoping for it to become widely available since first reading about it somewhere south of 2010. But I guess it would need to become easily manufacturable in local pharmacies for procedure to become widespread.

A naive answer:

Replace “Lemmy” with a “Nazi manufactured gun”.

A less naive answer:

Consider various meanings “use” takes in your question and decide accordingly.
