They sort-of are. I heard from a czech guy that his family back there are complaining about refugee crime.

It was weird hearing it because usually you’d expect that sort of rhetoric to follow

Idk if his relatives listen to Czech version of fox News or what but it was surprising.

This is probably good justice, but idk if it’s going to reduce drunk driving.

It’s crazy to me that in America drunk driving (with no victims) isn’t a felony on its own. In Canada it’s their version of a felony and generally a way bigger deal. In America you seem to only have consequences when someone’s hurt.

Crazy that MADD was able to lobby to get all states to have 21 as the legal drinking age but not able to lobby to make drunk driving a felony because it’s too ingrained into America since people like going to bars but don’t wanna pay for cabs and have no other transit options.

I got back into running lately, hurt my knee and had to take a break, using the very cushioned Hoka Clifton 8.

I think I increased mileage too quickly, but this video makes me think it might be the shoes since before my running hiatus, I used to cover more ground with very flexible Nike Freeruns and was fine although my feet hurt more. Probably only 10k/week back then though.

Right now taking a break because the outside of one of my knees clicks when I bend it.

Any specific vibram model recommendation for sidewalk/hard surfaces?

I have narrow feet at the middle, idk what shoe I’m supposed to buy because anything that’s wide at the toe is usually too wide midfoot and results in feeling like my shoes are going to role around my feet no matter how I tie them.

Also what shoe are you supposed to buy if you’re running on road or sidewalk? Those barefoot shoes are too thin soled IMO, unless you run on dirt paths

I guess my feet aren’t in too bad of shape since I can wiggle my toes sideway and grab stuff with my bigtoe and middle toe

flashgames mostly, idk if the ones i played on miniclip are even still playable.

On PC, Lego star wars, Simpson’s hit and run, NFS Underground.

My cousin had a SNES and N64 and we used to play smash bros 64, mariokart 64, and take turns on Super Mario World.

My Brother laser printer/fax that looks like it came from the 90s is amazing and works with everything on default drivers. Mac, PC, Linux, Android, all of these work fine for me. The brother driver gives you more options if you care to install it, but you don’t have to.

Inkjet is a different beast. Especially the ones that don’t let you print B&W if you run out of colour ink, or that check for “legit” ink refills.

He’s also the guy who invented bacon and eggs for breakfast, and was behind the advertising campaign that ingrained diamonds as a part of the go-to engagement/wedding ring.

Interesting historical figure.

Used to be that way in English.

Edward Bernays, the original corporate propagandist/father of modern PR, used to work with companies when they were still called “propaganda departments” instead of “PR Departments”. His book is even called “Propaganda”

Defence contractor vs weapons manufacturer

Used depending on who’s buying weapons from whom

In Canada sim card unlimited internet for the house is like 150 CAD lmao. Not even 5g because we don’t really have that widespread everywhere yet.

What does the lower exchange between the ruble and the dollar mean then? The ruble is worth less dollars than before.

UBS (a Swiss bank) doesn’t really have reason to lie about the wealth increase. Is the exchange rate thing just because rubles are less useful internationally because sanctions?

The US has inflation, and if the ruble is worth less dollars then that means Russia has even more inflation.

Obviously all our media wants to paint a picture of Russia doing terribly, but I wonder what the actual picture is. All the companies that left Russia left behind all their shit for Russia to use which if anything helps them keep more production in their own borders.

Cathode Ray Dude and Techmoan if you want to see retro tech.

It’s crazy how much artistry went into mechanical engineering of tape decks and stuff like that before circuit boards and components were small enough that everything is uncreative.

seconded, it’s great for resuming learning sessions and stuff like that.

Being able to jump back into all the troubleshooting and stack overflow tabs whenever a problem reappears is great.

kulaks

Wrong country lol.

Considering this mod grew up Estonian, gotta credit them with backing down on the hammer and sickle thing.

In an economy as tightly controlled as China, how much does deflation even matter?

Also I wonder how everywhere else having inflation will interact with this. Is China just getting affected because the rest of the world can’t afford basic necessities anymore? The article kinda touches on reduced demand from countries with inflation abroad causing this, but also doesn’t really explain anything other than going “lower number is uh bad”
