Exactly. ACF has published a list of every single person responsible for the war. Most of them are not sanctioned because they are filthy rich and have already bought themselves passports in various EU countries. Targeting Russian passports does absolutely nothing to them as they can just use another.
If they don't want to get sanctioned and they've long migrated from Russia they should apply for citizenship elsewhere
Have you ever thought about doing this yourself? Don't have to go far to figure that it takes at least 5 years of hard work in most cases, if possible at all. Citizenship unfortunately isn't something you can acquire or renounce at will. Not without being obscenely rich, that is.
As a Russian, I have nothing against this. Actually, screw it, just send all of them. Russian MoD's probably going to put bounties on them, like they did with Leopards. This way, the US finally get to decommission that meme of an aircraft, some AA crew is going to get an easy payday of like $10k each, and the MoD gets to report that they've inflicted $20mil worth of damage for only pennies, while in reality only lifting the burden of maintenance of those planes from the US budget. Sounds like win-win-win to me. The only losers here are those few poor Ukrainians who will have to pilot the damn thing.
Not if you leave it at default, which is cloudflare, and is the only option. Fuckers MITM-ed half the internet, and now they're after DNS. I'd rather trust my ISP and NSA more than them.
This is absolutely bizarre and a disgrace to the Russian military that this was even a thing. Like, Russia has complete in-house comm systems, all the way down to the silicon. They're as elegant as charcoal clothing iron, but at least they're secure. In fact, they're so paranoid about NSA plants that they even force businesses to use in-house encryption to submit accounting reports. And then the same idiots allow risking lives of officers by using random software in a command center...
Though I feel like the response is also far from best. There are numerous alternatives they can switch to, so the ban is mostly going to only hit innocent gamers. It'd be much more impactful if they just silently handed access to those channels over to Ukrainians.
with no modern appurtenances like internet service and smoke detectors. One electrical outlet per room, small windows, no irrigation in the yard, just a hose. Plain telephone service to one jack. Rabbit ears for TV only. No microwave or dishwasher and only clotheslines for drying laundry
Bruh. All that is like pennies, comparatively speaking.
Also, pretty sure you've described is like every other property on sale right now, so no need for calculations - just check the local zillow or something.
That's the face I've made just yesterday when my friend told me she's now eligible for a subsidized IT mortgage. That thing was one of Russia's last ditch attempts at stopping skilled workers from fucking off to different countries. The problem is, she's a web designer. I guess that counts as IT nowadays, so good for her. But it's bitter to hear as sr. backend tech who never hit the criteria...
From what I gather, he didn't. He joined a bunch of dipshits the so-called DNR's militia. It's still a quesion how he got there in the first place, as it would require him to transit through Russia, which in turn would require a Russian visa, which isn't that easy to get and immigration is one of few things that Russia actually cares and is very strict about. And after all that, hesomehow had to illegally cross the Ukrainian border... Some hefty bribes took place, no doubt about it.
By the way, a thing to note is that Russian police is infamous for making up cases, and also for beating and torturing out testimonies for something that people didn't do. The convicts and their families now deny allegations and claim the case was fabricated. But, at the same time, it is extremely rare for an entire group of closely connected people to be arrested under such false premises. Just wanted to point that out so there is no double standard of accusing Russia of lying about everything, but then just taking some random statement at face value.
I really don’t understand people that prefer Google over Mozilla. Firefox works like a charm and Google already knows enough about us IMHO.
Firefox objectively has poor responsiveness in some apps, hence why some "works only in chrome" banners are justified. Can't quite put my finger of it, but it got a lot worse somewhere between quantum and heartbleed(but not because of it, I checked), and it never recovered. In my own projects that were time-sensitive, like 3d games and music apps, I couldn't find the source of it, but found that while some approaches led to major performance hit on firefox, others majorly hit chromium, and vice versa, and it was all about juggling to finding an approach that doesn't hit either as hard. But in some cases there were none and so I had to choose. Obviously the browser engine with a higher market share wins. And because of that, to be on par with Chrome, Firefox not only has to be better, it has to be not worse in all cases, which is a rather tough challenge.
A military parade is a formation of soldiers whose movement is restricted by close-order manoeuvering known as drilling or marching [...] parades may also hold a role for propaganda purposes, being used to exhibit the apparent military strength of a country.
The United States Marine Corps Silent Drill Platoon is a 24-man rifle platoon led by a Captain and Platoon Sergeant of the United States Marine Corps (USMC). Often referred to as The Marching Twenty-Four, the unit performs a unique silent precision exhibition drill. The purpose of the platoon is to exemplify the discipline and professionalism of the Marine Corps
This is definitely a parade. Don't think I need to argue that synchronously throwing rifles at each other counts as pass juggling.
It’s called tradition, you silly bitch, and you are correct to laugh at it because it indeed looks stupid as fuck
I think this applies to all ceremonial military stuff: The queen's guard, the India-Pakistani border guards (at least they own it), the french foreign legionnaires who go out with a fucking axe and an apron, the US also has a tendency to flash ancient rifles on parades and then... juggle them? And so does Russia, aside from whatever that shit in the OP-post is, always brings out an old WW2-era tank on parades, alongside with the only available prototype sample of a new one, which then proceeds to stall in the middle of it and has to be towed out with said WW2-era tank.
On gigabyte boards, red ports were/are signifying their "ON/OFF charge" and "3x power" gimmicks. Basically means that it's a usb 2.0, with 1.5A limit over normal 500mA, and remains powered when the PC is turned off.
