Of course, but they very clearly support Russia, so that does not apply here. They explicitly state that Ukraine should stop fighting, i.e., let Russia win. They state The Independent and Russia Today are two equally trustworthy news source

Nothing necessarily antidemocratic about conscription. Finland is a democracy and has conscription. You need to focus your outrage on Russia for invading Ukraine instead of Ukraine for defending itself.

Seems like a good deal to me if you're worried about money rather than lives: give money to Ukraine, keep Russian dictatorship at bay, before it invades other parts of Europe. So cheer up, your taxes are not being wasted, they are savi

Yeah that's why war sucks bro. People end up getting conscripted when the war is for the very existence of the country itself. It sucks. So Russia should withdraw. Anyway seethe more. And keep acting all shocked and outraged that co

Ukraine seems pretty intent on continuing to fight, I'm not forcing them to do anything, indeed I have no power over Ukrainian policy whatsoever. If Ukraine wants to fight then I believe we should support them. Hope that helps. >

I don't think that "putin has 3 days of supplies left" propaganda is just as bad as the kind of genocidal propaganda pumped out by the Russian media, no, sorry. Not all propaganda is born equal. Antisemitic propaganda pumped

Yes: A lie to boost the morale of a country fighting a defensive war against a genocidal dictatorship is unambiguously a better lie than the lies of the genocidal dictatorship to rile up its populace to more effectively execute the genocida

It's arguably not propaganda to publish an article quoting a member of the Ukrainian military. It's even in the headline right there: "Ukraine military claims". If you think the output of RT and the Independent are indi

A country at war has no moral or legal obligation to publish its enemy’s propaganda. This should be very obvious. And yes RT was always complete shite for gullible morons, though it is rather beside the point in this case actually. The Br

by twixfel 2y ago
RT is not truth though. When a country is fighting for its very survival against a genocidal foe, I'm not about to start clutching my pearls that they've banned their genocidal foe's propaganda. Seems reasonable to me.

So I guess it's not a great idea to make broad sweeping claims based off your own personal experience.

OK but by that point it is too late, you need to be informed before you purchase the game, not after. > Not to mention it's mentioned on the Steam store page. On the sony online store it's stated that it is not necessary.

How is it irrelevant if it's coming from Sony itself?

Haven’t you inverted it rather flagrantly? In this scenario it is Russia that attached the Czech Republic. > Wars are never waged as responses to attacks or insults, they are waged when the rulers have determined that they will be profi

That's fine, I understand that a lot of my criticisms are arguably actually advantages, but after doing the MOOC about 8 years ago I just couldn't stick with it. Fun though, and a great way to really learn OOP at the time when I

Yes last time I checked they had their own versioning system as well... it's one thing to learn a language but having to learn a whole new set of tools put me off in the end. I guess I can see the argument that the Smalltalk files ar

The school system seems completely antiquated. I was driving back from Switzerland to the Ruhrgebiet with some Germans and we drove past a Hauptschule in their home town and they pointed at it and said to me “if you go to this sort of scho

Actually if FGM is torture and intentionally drowning your child just to see what it looks like is surely also torture then I’d argue they really aren’t so different, no, although one may be worse than the other.

by twixfel 2y ago
It’s not misplaced. Putting your kid in danger without their consent just to “see what it looks like” is completely insane and a huge betrayal.

by twixfel 2y ago
Rather than being a father who is not abusing his child, better to abuse the child to teach a valuable lesson that family cannot be trusted? Great lesson. How about being a father who can be trusted?
323.
by twixfel 2y ago
Yes the world is a little bit more dangerous for that kid at least. At any moment his father might throw him in a lake with neither consent nor warning. I never had to worry about my parents experimenting on me and I simply learned to swi

by twixfel 3y ago
But not his own father! Running dangerous experiments on your child without their consent is surely at best extremely unethical. To me it sounds positively sick, or in layman terms, psychopathic.

Indeed at first glance it looks odd, but the alternative is that multiplying a sequence always does a deep copy. Actually what is "strange" is the behaviour in combination with the syntax of a nested list. The behaviour itself i

The discussions is not about setting up an LLC in the EU, but specifically in Germany. Subsequent to that we are comparing this with other developed countries in the world, not all of which are in the EU, which is fine, and does not underm

Europe is a continent. They're not in the EU. If being in the EU is a requirement to be in Europe: that means Switzerland is not in Europe?

I mean he established a GmbH in Germany so it sounds very much like they do know what they're talking about.

OK but how is it that other countries get by without them for founding LLCs? Are there countless scams going on in the UK surrounding limited company for example since you don't need a notary there? There's often lots of post hoc
