Any forum on old.reddit.com has links to threads that go to new pages, supremely annoying (I am sure there is some plugin or workaround for that but why the heck should I battle the site just to use it)

Well that heat does a lot of damage too, on top of other damaging radiation, blast wave, irradiating everything etc. which is proportional to bomb yield. Sure the biggest ones are comparatively ineffective, thats why the focus on manufactur

Not true, just some cheap internet meme for people too lazy to bother understanding economics and different principles US and European societies and markets work on. And the claim of parent that income from sales would go to EU, which is no

I would not. I would focus on family and friends, leaving as little mess to work through for them after my passing and making the best out of remaining days. Quality > quantity for me, always.

This is not practical for common folks. I wouldn't be able to get into ebanking, buy anything in eshops, probably most stuff I use daily would be at least half-broken. Imagine this for my elderly parents, just endless desperation and f

If you look at history at large enough scale, concepts of patriotism or keeping one's culture are completely meaningless. Or to phrase it better - there is as much meaning as you give it to, can be from 0 to extreme and only you decide
