Sorry, in case that was unclear: These are predictions, not opinions.

Ukraine 💀 Middle East 💥 China 1️⃣

It is what it is.

But you can’t kiss a duck on the lips from the word go. Just ask Neil Degrasse Tyson.

That’s what happens when you forget but keep trying and then make a new post about it.

Doesn’t exist in German? What about “Frohes Schaffen”?

You know what doesn’t take effort? Writing stupid lists like that for other people to follow.

Boss is a lazy SOB.

Wrong.

The pane was moor than he could bare so he gave himself a route canal.

Yep, you found it.

Reminds me of 🤣

Sorry if I was wrong about the prevalence of such protections. My perception may be biased because the notebooks used by our company are all equipped with a switch or shutter of some sort. (HP brand, IIRC) Regarding your second point, however: surely a shutter physically obscuring the camera lens is just as effective as disconnecting the camera when it comes to protecting the user’s privacy?

They often come equipped with a privacy slider to cover the lens. Or you can just put a sticker on them.

I wouldn’t mind my tax money paying for their one-way tickets. Especially if they leave their passport at the gate.

But if the help had come from North Korea or China, Vlad would have been fine with it.

Doesn’t Storm Shadow require Western operators to program targets? I want Ukraine to win this war of national survival (unlike the US administration) but Western operators programming missiles to hit targets in Russia does sound escalatory to me. I’d rather see Ukraine receive a decent number of F16s (i.e. much more than currently pledged) with corresponding munitions. There’s a lot of really useful stuff in the Western arsenal that would otherwise remain unused forever, including older-gen glide bombs & standoff weapons. It’s not going to be the Wunderwaffen winning this war, anyway. But an ample supply of decent weapons could work wonders. Just look at the success of Russia’s cheap glide bomb upgrades. (Sorry for the wall of text, by the way, but I can’t get Connect for Android to retain line breaks)

That’s cool. Means Ukraine doesn’t have to burden itself with housing and feeding them when they surrender.

Take my upvote for the unexpected Magritte quote.

Well, Evil Bert is American, so you’re not far off.
