No, no, no. They are full in control, instead.

Well, contemporary world is full of examples of people being a far right dickbag, even though they declare the exact opposite (as a fine fascist would do), that are"histories of success"

So, it’s not just me… I feel really relieved

In general I’d agree… In this specific occasion, dunno… The article talks about zero weapons, instead of several hundreds (if I got it correct). How could nobody in the command chain noticed this? Nobody had a conversation like

hey how’s it going in bakmut?

eh, they got literally zero artillery

wha? We spent more than $30m… Let me call…

? Then again, I’m getting old AND grumpy

I don’t understand how, during a war, people in apical roles steal money, and don’t flee with the money ($35m, even $1m… And you still “go to work” everyday?) to avoid getting executed under martial law. All the more as the theft is plain clear to see to anybody informed about the operations - no ammunition? And why? How’s this possible?

that’s why europe should wait for the right moment to cut the sweet €€

not saying anything, but Orban ain’t immortal… sooner or later he’s going to leave the govt. europe should cut money just at the perfect time, so that people would blame following shitty scenario on this white, old style, European man.

oh, in Italy he’s highly regarded inside lega nord (Extreme far right, xenophobic, nationalist party now part of the government) and widely estimated, although not always explicitly, by fratelli d’Italia (far right, xenophobic, nationalist party now part of the government)

good vs bad narrative works exceedingly well. they ain’t saying they know it’s Iran. They saying Iran it’s the bad guy. and in USA this is much more than sufficient.

there have been scandals about road cameras (speed, red light, etc.) in the past, because you are right, they’re essentially just tax collection tools. in tens of cities, about 15 years ago, yellow lights were on for less than 3 seconds, even about just one second in a few places. now here they’re talking about how 30 km/h should be the fastest you could go in cities. the alternative is often awful public transportation, either because vehicles catch fire, are late or dirty, they break, or simply don’t show up. public service could also be inefficient or de facto inexistent in a few cities.

what a shameful mess.

i, well , i was trying to exert some emotional experience.

these are machines, nonetheless they are an expression of human existence; they are human, in such a remarkable scenario. they cannot come back; home is lost forever to them, for the very same transience experienced by humans. this page explains it all, btw.

what is it that pale blue dot?

no, we were excited we could have arcade 3d at home. but it’s 25 years ago, or some such… honestly I care more about “sweet memories” than historical correctness. nonetheless your memory, and will to share it, is more than appreciable, in fact I thank you for sharing.

ok my bad. legend in town was that inside coin ops there was saturn hw. but who knows… this is maybe true for me, and not for you.

you were disappointed and mildly concerned at the sight of the very first 3d fighting game? wow…

wish you to feel like the first time you played it

we sure they ain’t desecrating Palestinian cemeteries? naaaah… Netanyahu and the israelian median, far and extreme far right parties would never do that. such good, human people

the users are holding their wallet the wrong way, probably

ok, I get your point. thank you

there were no israeli zionists at the time, I’d say just zionists. please correct me if I’m wrong
