As I recall: Mitt Romney was the first public person who really came out and called Russia a threat in the US in the 2011/2012 election cycle. Which at the time he was laughed at because Russia was still seen as an ally and the major threat was China.

Now they are both openly hostile and Germany is cozying up to fucking China.

Germany: just do what the rest of the west (and China) does and bribe the Canadian government to hand over raw resources to you.

Winnie the Pooh and his favourite sub: Putin.

Better to analyze for vulnerabilities. Particularly with a number of governments using open source software hosted on github.

It could be that its success was internally attributed to a different team someone in the hierarchy favoured.

Yeah, but my point is, even if it is a finger, and thats a pretty massive if. And if its a soft tissue fossil from 3MYA.

So what?

It fits the overall shape of the end of a finger of any great ape. Sure, it would be a stupendous scientific find, but it couldn’t disprove evolution.

Its amusing how the creationists have mostly stopped trying to attack “deep time” and instead really misuse science.

Like that “finger”. Do they think early hominids didnt have fucking hands and fingers or something? That we were all snakes or clawed devils?

Okay yeah.
For everyone else, what we’re talking about is a theory that the Black Sea has a few points in history where the regions monumental earthquakes caused landslides that blocked(and maybe later cleared, or it cleared naturally) the Bosporus. When it was blocked, the sea swelled and flooded.

As I understood that one, it was localized to the Black Sea or Mediterranean and based on blockages to their connecting channels to larger bodies of water. But last I heard of that was a long time ago.

Mentions UBlock seems.to be fast and safe, but that the API used lets extensions look at everything you do amd can dramatically affect browser speed. Implying that UBlock Origin is responsible for Chrome being such a memory Hog and that they, not Google, are the ones after your data.

What a garbage article. Chock full of google propaganda and fear mongering.

My Oma was in the Netherlands in the 1930s. Her family sheltered part of a jewish family(the elderly mother who was too sick to escape to North America, and one of her sons, a lawyer, who stayed behind to care for her.) This was before the invasion and the start of the war.

At the time, late 1930s, she said that everyone knew something bad was happening to the Jewish people the Nazis rounded up, but not what.

After more than a year of occupation, they were turned in by a neighbor for extra rations because none of her family needed daily visits from a doctor. The Nazis took the two Jewish people and her Dad into a camp.

A local factory owner, some months on, tried to have everyone from the area released in return for his compliance in letting them use his factory output. Her dad was among those released, but they refused to release any Jewish prisoners. Her parents then immediately joined the resistance and helped it out until the end of the war. The factory owner allegedly ensured that the output to the Nazis was changed to be only subtly defective units, pipe walls too thin, cooled too quickly etc.

(I was making a joke by describing Skyrim. The college is Winterhold.)

It would have to be more melee based, maybe in a northern area of Europe with a heavy scandanavian focus.

Maybe the radiation gave them magical abilities. Have a sorry redneck excuse for a magical college up in the north east of the map in the remnants of a ruined city.

Putin is said to have commented, before the invasion, that Russia has a population of conscription aged men of 25 million, this seems to have been their design philosophy of just grinding Ukraine into dust, even if it took millions of Russian lives to do it.

However, that theyre already pulling women prisoners into the meat grinder suggests that number may have been wrong.

Say we want the mantle of most boring cuisine from the English without saying it.

Simple, the original team that made DA:O went off to do other things or was promoted into management where they did well, but couldn’t replicate the magic of their OG team.

Yes. Absolutely.

However, no one has taken the companies that started doing that to task, and now even companies like John Deer have been pulling that shit.

Hell, Monsanto actually took farmers to court on that principle for growing crops that had been naturally cross pollinated with “their” GMO crops using that principle.

I am not disagreeing with you. I am stating what we have allowed the rich fucks to get away with.

Its in the standard terms of service now for the big AAA publishers.

As far as I am aware, most of the game and sofrware companies get around it by stating you’re no longer buying a thing, but buying a non-transferrable licence to use the thing but you never actually own anything.

The best way to increase birth rates in advanced countries is: Work life balance. Restore the traditional tax rates on the rich.
