amazon’s probably boosting any product with “white power” in it, that’s why you’re seeing this now

russia definitely isnt getting everything they want out of this, since the US will still be a country afterwards.

but tell me, how do you imagine these peace talks to go? do you really think there’s a chance russia just goes home after spending years taking eastern ukraine? do you think the US can make russia do this? how? with more sanctions? by putting boots on the ground and getting us into a nuclear exchange? by sending even more badly trained, badly equipped ukrainians to die on the front?

the one thing NATO hasnt tried is actually ramping up production of basic war materiel so they can at least keep pace with the russian war industry. but at this point, even that’s too little too late, since they’re running out of ukrainian soldiers to give the weapons to.

that’s how i know it’s time to go to bed

qatar is a US ally…

according to allies of saudi arabia, yes. according to facts on the ground, eeeeeh.

or if you consider that the majority of the population of yemen lives in ansar allah controlled territory. the saudi (US) aligned compradors control the oil fields…

ah, i guess this tracks, since according to western ideology, land (and especially oil) has more votes than mere people.

isnt ansar allah the yemeni government though?

blink

it’s definitely not from the office, lol. it’s an old old joke that probably predates television.

linux must go
who must go?
…

ah, but only some of it was good. i disliked the czech ones or the ones by chuck jones.

oh yeah, mine expects me to fix the weather too. or to open the window to the other outside, the one that doesnt have rain.

she once caught a mouse without hurting it (much), brought it inside and then sat on it. just sat on the mouse. and the mouse just cowered there, sunk in her chest fur.

is this about the copper again?

i dont think it’s entirely arbitrary. it’s probably mostly rabid classism.

the party that won doesnt want georgia to (try to) join nato. that’s enough to make them illegitimate nowadays.

eeeeh, it can go the other way. i dont think i would’ve ever had mice in this flat without the cat. but she likes to catch mice, bring them inside totally unharmed and let them go. and then watch them. chase them. sit on top of them. she doesnt eat them because i guess she never had to eat them.

and then i end up catching the mouse since i dont want it loose in the flat at night, and i dont want to find a rotting mouse corpse 2 weeks later (this has happened at least twice).

in that case, i’d prefer a ~/bin/zcat with the contents

#!/bin/sh
exec gzip -cdf "$@"

this way, it’s exec’able, unlike an alias or shell function.

zgrep . * should do the trick

oh, there’s also zcat -f *

my whole elementary school class visited my dad’s workplace once, cos it was cool. it had a huge anechoic chamber.

and the cantine had canada dry.

no, there’s also documentation that is 10 years old, entirely out of date and very incomplete.
