If enough protest there won't be jail time...

If enough protest they won't go to jail... And all those who have will be released. And I might if Russia wasn't literally bombing apartments without even attempting to fight the Ukrainian military... They should think about what

I literally live in 2 countries and my family is spread across 5 or so. I've been to a dozen or so countries. Speak 2.5 languages (2 fluent, 1 poorly). My kid will have 2 nationalities when they're born and hopefully speak 3+ la

That was 60 years ago... Also still not an invasion but yes, was shitty of the US. I'm not pro-US by any stretch, but I'm in support of anything they do to help Ukraine, where civilians are being directly targeted... We can talk

It's truly amazing how much whataboutism and Russian propaganda there is in the US.

Of course it's not a real car so will crumble in an accident and probably have terrible handling.

> invades Iran The difference between Ukraine and all the other countries invaded in the last 50 or so years is that Ukraine is a real democracy and liberal, modern society. Iran, Syria, Iraq, etc... are not the same as Ukraine.

Sounds like a pain. I have a regular Hyundai Elantra and get significantly more than 300 miles of range on a tank, winter or not. And I live in the mountains in Canada, where there's some roads that don't have a gas station for

Yup. Grammar is the same just with some different vocabulary (mainly because of loanwords from other languages that got inserted because of history).

From Ukrainian it gets turned into "shch". Which IMO sounds about right. Mainly because sh and ch are shorter sounds in English (ch can also be a little hard), but shch gets the point across.

>I didn't know that. But if that is the case, the company could have offered them money and support to relocate somewhere out of the war zone? They were literally surrounded and being bombed in Kharkiv. Hard to get out in those cir

Maybe but it seems more like they're embarrassed by their lack of progress so are just shelling civilian areas to try force a surrender...

Nah should let them stay connected to the internet so they can see news from outside Russia. Should completely isolate them economically too. Not a single Russian should be able to receive a single dollar from anywhere outside the country

I don't see why there's a need for this explanation. If your end goal is to sell the software you make you shouldn't open source it. The main use case for open source is software you USE, you release it into the wild so othe

It's pointless. You need to check your luggage and verify your documents anyway, electronic check-in is a waste of time... I used to do it, now I don't.
