Not sure if it’s just the Tass being Tass - but somehow her statements are totally missing the debt crisis.

Total corporate debt has reached RUB 86.2 trillion (about US$1.1 trillion), up 65% compared to the start of the full-scale war. Nearly half of this debt is owed by Russia’s 78 largest companies. One in six of them spends over a third of profits on interest payments, while 8% of the total debt is owed by companies that cannot even cover their loan servicing costs.

Even though she claims inflation is falling (to 3-4% nonetheless) The Bank of Russia interest rate is still breathtaking 20% tradingeconomics

You have a really good spelling for an American.

A bit misleding:

• there is no doubt Russia tried to influence US elections in 2016
• the uncertainty is about whether Trump actively cooperated with them - which he didn’t have to - and very likely didn’t.

I love this part (end of the article):

As the Iranian Armed Forces pounded Israel and its military and industrial infrastructure, using many new-generation missiles that precisely hit the designated targets, the embattled regime was forced to unilaterally declare a truce deal on June 24.

Nazi proxies led by jewish president. You are really smart and definitely not a looser.

I wasn’t paying that much attention, I hope I am not badmouthing mozilla, but I believe I had the same experience with snap install of Firefox on current xbuntu. Maybee a month ago? I am using DDG by default and always remove Google from the search engine list. The thing updates, I do a random search and get the google screen asking me all the questions about cookies and privacy I simply don’t know how to answer. I go into settings and find google set as default search engine. What is even stranger, I can no longer remove google from the list! This seems to me so ridiculous I decide it has to be a bug I am happy to report that when I’ve noticed next update (becase those annoying tabs informing about new features) - I was again able to remove google from the search engine list.

Mozilla acts pretty scary nowadays - maybe naively - I am pinning my hopes on Ladybird.

They are operating exclusively Boeing 737 variants ( afaik 600+ planes) to save money by symplifying maintenance and pilot training. Adding another new completely different plane into the mix (one noone outside china knows how to maintain or fly) would add lots of costly complexity and overhead they can do without. They would have to fully switch only to single COMAC plane variant for all future purchases to make it make sense and imo they are nowhere near beaing ready fot that kind of commitment.

That is all true. I’d still prefer it to an unarmored donkey

To be fair: I didn’t know either, until I had a long discussion on the topic with my colleagues wife - who is an Italian.

“Al dente” essentially means “cook your pasta as long as you like”

Doesn’t it say:

Although the fabricated passport likely would not withstand scrutiny due to the absence of an embedded chip, it proved sufficient to bypass the most basic KYC procedures employed by some fintech services.

From what i gather about these “Know Your Customer” systems, they take the photo of your ID, check if it is realistic enough and then check the picture on your ID (bad as it is) against your authentic photo made through the app. Verification against 3rd party API confirming existence of such ID while welcome / preferred seems to be optional (doesn’t work for all IDs - there may be technical/ legal barriers).

So the vulnerability has probably always been there, still is (?!?), for a sweet moment in time it was just more easy to exploit?

I’d say comparing caddy to nginx is like comparing bicycle to a diesel locomotive. Technically they are doing same thing. One is easy to deal with the other one is designed to do things at scale.

I am not a crypto nerd but in my childish mind I imagine that if a policeman wants to unlock my phone I’ll just tell hin the “duress pin” and let him wipe the device himself … (GrapheneOS)

There were times when Israel was at least trying to be ambiguous about their possession of nuclear weapons. The famous

“not to be the first to introduce nuclear weapons into the area.”

Now we get junior ministers, half of the media and all the facebook discussing who should be nuked first. Mordechai Vanunu spent 2 decades in prison because of this crap.
