The experience for this last year was that once the US stopped supporting Ukraine, the rest of the west folded as well, which let them regain the initiative.
I know nothing about anything but it seems like they’ve learned that with enough patience the US and most NATO allies support will wane with time.

Which is 5TB of movies I think I should watch, 1.5TB of stuff I already watched and think I would watch again and the rest of stuff I actually want to watch.
At this point Rudy looks like a Simpsons’ character.
Jellfyfin is the reason why I do this. I went from spending 30 minutes dumpster diving through terrible movies in one of the streaming platforms to now spending 30 minutes trying to choose from a selection of movies that I actually want to watch.
One of the things that irated me most from Reddit was the fact that if someone’s response came quickly enough, upvotes will ensure everyone believe it and downvoting it was like peeing on a wildfire.
I like that kbin shows both upvotes and downvotes which tells me when something is controversial enough to give it some thought rather than believe it blindly.
Would somebody think of the regimes!
Telegram’s that kid in school that often says “hey you can tell me anything, c’mon trust me with your secret”. An hour later, everyone knows it.

"Even by 19th-century standards, James Harlan was a prude. As Secretary of the Interior, he searched the desks of his clerks at night, looking for signs of inappropriate behavior. One night he found a book of poetry. Harlan flipped through it, shocked by the poems and by what the clerk had written in the margins. Harlan fired the clerk the next day, declaring such “filth” had no place in government.
The clerk was Walt Whitman. The book was Leaves of Grass, which Whitman was revising. Whitman got another job, Harlan became a footnote in literary history."
Fantastic read.
Be careful when asking for financial advice on the internet. A lot of people treat investing like it’s a casino.

What makes me really mad is this new drug called ecstasy, it makes me mad!
Have you seen their video where they call Larry Ellison a modern samurai?
It looks like something out of The Office.
Nestlé is the answer to those with evil aspirations but that also want job security.
Em… they are using a Personal Digital Assistant? Sorry I’m a time traveler.
Oblivion on the left, Skyrim on the right.
What about the boner population eh?
I blame my career choices to that game and the 90s movie “Hackers”.
Dungeon Keeper, Diablo II, StarCraft maybe, Morrowind, Uplink, Civilization II, Sim City 2000 or 3000 (depends on what will run), quake.
Wow, I definitely didn’t expect that “Factual Reporting” would be “Mixed”, however going through the list, it shows several instances where they misunderstood either a scientific paper or misrepresented some fact.
That said, I had before in some cases seen articles about AI being either false, misunderstanding the facts, or just parroting some CEO. I attributed it to AI being something relatively “new” to mainstream media, but this is pretty much eye opening.
I like their “long read” articles though, but I guess it’s time to find a new main everyday paper for me…
