For us Ukrainians, capitulation is not an option because Putin wants to do a "denazification". Under this word he means purging (killing or sending to a gulag) every Ukrainian who is known to be openly pro-Ukrainian (which used to

Voice sounds even more unrealistic than the video (source: I'm Ukrainian). No one in Ukraine would believe the audio part of this fake, even if video was perfect. This is a pathetic attempt. Also, the script (the text that is being rea

This "Hey, you are from Ukraine, let us switch you to the Russian language" behavior I see in some places literally causes me PTSD. I got pissed off this way by Adobe just yesterday. Please don't do it people. I don't ha

I bet such a job exists somewhere, because someone has to watch each episode of the soap opera as a QA check before it gets aired.

IEC 60906-1 is great, obviously the best of them all (considering all the legacy). I see that India uses a similar standard as the old South Africa plug. Why doesn't India do the same and migrate to IEC 60906-1? If I were Indian, I

Same thing with my Sennheiser bluetooth headphones. It may seem like no one will want to use them while connected to a wire, but sometimes having awkwardly-wired headphones is better than having no working headphones at all.

I've been thinking of it the same way since I learned that helium is a non-renewable fossil resource. Once it's gone, it's gone.

I renamed it into {not-keygen}.{not-exe} instead. I didn't investigate the issue in details, but I think that Microsoft expects a more enterprisey file name for a legitimate keygen. I should have called it something along the lines of

I anticipated this question :) No, it was just a plain Windows form, built from scratch using a then-popular Windows IDE. I think it was mostly triggered by the file name, maybe in combination with some crypto code inside.

In my experience, the problem with unofficial place names is that the same name gets assigned to different places by different people because there is no "single source of truth". And as soon as there is a single source of truth,

What happened in Ukraine in mid-2014 was not a civil war at all. One side poorly pretended to be a militia, while the other side were regular military forces of Ukraine. It's not a civil war when one country attacks another country.

Bitcoins are not really fungible. There are already services that provide "fresh, minted straight to your wallet with no history" bitcoins, which cost more than normal "used" bitcoins.
