For the general population of mice, yes.

Wait when it becomes reality in some societies. You may not want to be part of it.

Ehm, cough, cough, …, this is the sign of the 3rd SS Panzer Division. So, yep, it is related to the Third Reich and hence to the Nazi regime.

Patience! They have recently rewritten a part in Rust. See the news.

Where is the widow?

Great cartoon and so much what is sometimes going on in the job world. In my case:

Chef: You cannot work alone on problems. If you have one, don’t wait, but approach us.

Chef after evaluation of work: You showed little autonomy (without mentioning that it has to do with approaching them when problems).

The language of parentheses is raising its „hand“.

Collecting downvotes?

I worry you won’t see this journalist again. ICE … something something … ICE.

Ok, but what happens now? Are these people arrested? Are they removed from their positions? Any actions are taken by you or somebody else? Any protests? No? So, why they need to sweat?

As long as these criminals are staying in high power, they do not need to worry. And honestly, you are a fool to think that many of them don’t have connections high up that will protect them or sufficient money to pay people.

Or perhaps the other side wearing a t-shirt with „I cheated on my boyfriend, so be warned, I may cheat on you“, right?

The father of a classmate supposedly did business in Russia during the 1990s and, according to my classmate, witnessed an execution beneath a bridge somewhere in Moscow late in the evening. I don’t remember a name of the bridge, and I can’t verify whether the story was true. However, he was completely serious when telling it, and I do remember hearing media reports about organized crime killings and similar incidents in Russia during the chaotic post-Soviet years. So while I can’t confirm this particular story, it doesn’t sound impossible for that period.

Actually, Russia has vast natural resources, but much of the wealth is concentrated in the hands of oligarchs. The post-communist period in Russia was marked by violent power struggles between oligarchs, often involving private militias or hired hitmen targeting rival businessmen. Perhaps it just wasn’t as visible in the US.

BTW, do not forget that most rich men in the US (Elon, Mark, Jeff) are rich on paper (stock market, company shares), while Russian millionaires have real physical control over resources or industries (eg Vladimir Potanin - rare earth elements, Vagit Alekperov - oil, Leonid Mikhelson - gas).

You can well imagine that this reaction will fall on fruitful ground that some security experts will think twice about sending it to M$ or better selling it on the dark web, especially zero day exploits! Hell, boy, Microsoft does not seem to know with whom they are messing with.

AFAIK on Reddit you get BANNED right away. If you are lucky for few days, otherwise eternally.

Finns are like „hold my beer”: Neighbours stand at the same bus stop for years on the way to work without exchanging a single word.

I remember also being in Tromsø and getting a little book about the do’s and don’ts in Norway. One piece of advice in it stuck with me: only speak when you actually have something worth saying.

Love the North and the Nordics.

May be something like Russia after the fall of communism or like Mexico with all its cartels and private armies?

LibreWolf is really great and something I use myself, but AFAIK it is a browser, not a search engine.

Jump Style.

I have not large doubts that he and even some people in his position elsewhere can be replaced by AI. We could save a hell lot of money and be even more productive!
