So it is a conflict and not a “special military operation”?

I’m pretty sure it has been proved that the weapons supplied by the US dismisses the importance of Putin.

While high speed trains reach speeds up to around 350kmh ordinary trains reach speeds up to around 250kmh.

So while high speed trains can go about 50% faster than ordinary trains the price tag for building and maintaining is many times more expensive compared to ordinary railway.

So let’s start maintaining the railways we have and build more. Making sure that it’s possible to go from point A to point B safely and in time

Then we start building high speed railways, connecting major cities.

Slovakia will ending their support for Ukraine isn’t a problem as to what will happen when the US and EU stops supporting Slovakia.

The amount of money the US and EU has poured into Slovakia the last ten twenty years is far from insignificant.

If Slovakia decides to stop believing in Europe then Europe will stop believing in Slovakia.

Filmtipset

I second this. Here in Sweden we used to have a movie site where they applied some magic to the calculation and presented how you would rate a movie on a scale 1-5 and they were always correct within ±1 point. So fx a 3 could be either 2, 3 or 4 etc etc. While the site still exists it has seen better days so RT had been my go-to site for movie scores and reviews.

Wikipedia:

I got curious about the last statement in the article about war crimes and wanted to find information on what war crimes the division was responsible for.

According to Wikipedia there has been numerous investigations which all (as I understood it) has been unsuccessful in finding hard evidence.

Now, I’m not defending Nazis and I’m not saying this division was nice in any way or not guilty of war crimes. I’m just concluding that most things in life are not just black or white.

Isn’t “anyone can fork if a project doesn’t really fit their taste” sort of the curse of open source?

Swallowing your pride, merging into another project and taking a less glamorous role in that project is not as easy as it was to fork when steering your project.

This is generally speaking. I’m definitively not saying any of this is that case with the XFS project.

Ps. Murdering your wife is also something that seems to be bad for filesystems…

It seems that you think something can’t be bad if there’s something else that’s worse.

You bringing up things that doesn’t even share a similar context is either plain stupid or very deliberate.

I’m voting for the latter.

By the way… You do agree that the Russian aggression against Ukraine is caused by Russia attacking Ukraine and that Russia have a deliberate strategy of killing civilians in Ukraine, right?

What statement do you mean is untrue?

Old timer here.

In the old days Microsoft essentially conquered the web by creating specialized features only available for their web browser.

This is the reason why we still suffer with IE compatibility mode in Edge. A lot of corporations still have systems that rely on clients being IE compatible.

Google essentially does the same with their services and Chrome.

There is a risk I’m wrong but… I’m pretty sure that if something is released into the Japanese part of the Pacific ocean it’s not contained within the Japanese borders…

What do you propose the government should limit/stop spending on to reach over 0.5% of the real yearly earnings of Gates, Musk, Bezos, the Waltons and all their billionaire friends?

(Note that I’m not even asking about if the actual real yearly earnings of millionaires.)

This.

And to add to it. If you were making 10 million dollar and someone approached and said that they could make it so that you keep 1 million in taxes if you pay them 100 thousand you would most likely be one of the ones doing it.

If you make enough money you can afford hiring people to find new ways to keep your expenses down. Tax is an expense as any other to many rich people.

“After all, you made your fortune without getting any help so why should your earnings go to p1eople who use the system”

She obviously wants me behind bars

That’s because you have been doing some criminal shit and I promise you that she’s not the only one who wants you behind bars.

So you’re not fine with Tesla’s even?

Since there is no such testing you’re talking about.

It seems you are trying to prove that “random software” is unsafe compared to Tesla’s when you actually have no idea how safe Tesla’s is.

There are multiple companies and universities developing software for self driving cars.

What if the “random software” was developed and maintained by Volvo, would you still call it “random software”? Would you still claim that Tesla’s software is more safe to use?

I did read it. They opened an investigation like 5 years after The Model S was released and people have died. Now, 6 years after that, something actually happens. 6 years of more accidents.

The same could be done with 3rd party software so there’s no difference and it’s not the same as the car system being regularly inspected.

So you’re claiming the software in Teslas have been tested and approved by the authorities?

So it doesn’t matter whatever you’re using Teslas or a 3rd party software since you, as the driver, are responsible for the outcome.
