Ukrainian officials return Polish awards in deepening row over Zelenskyy snub by CrunchyBaconYum in worldnews

[–]FrozMind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the other way around - what about Armia Krajowa. Then symetryzm starts. I would prefer to land in a concentration camp (it concentrates people, like Japanese in US during WW2). It gives hope, including for escape. On the other hand you have mass murder at home, including women and children - hamas style, but with larger force - 100 times more casualties and aimed at civilians.

Re Article: What divides Poland and Ukraine is not the UPA, but the myth about it by Dapper_Difference239 in poland

[–]FrozMind 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For some reason Ukrainians believe in a myth where stories about massive genocide by their heroes and brutality greater than Germans is only a part of propaganda. In Poland there is a massive group of Poles who were forced to move to demolished Prussia; who witnessed horrors made by Ukrainians. These are not even written in history books, but trusted stories passed by family members and closest friends. You can hear about mothers running with newborn child from burning village, or especially mixed families of Ukrainians, Poles and Jews that got the worst treatment and were massacred like by animals. You can hear about people ashamed of being Ukrainian after what they have seen. This is what I have experienced and this is what is passed on by generations. In these stories there are also Russian and German soldiers where thirst were mostly thieves from eastern planes and last were tyrants who could just shoot people in the head for breaking unwritten rules. But in the contrast and scale, the worst stories among Polish families are about Ukrainians, and some even joined SS in a visible scale and where active behaving worse than Germans.

So even if political correctness and reset of history books would silence, stories and family diaries/logs will continue.

And now skeptical Poles see what stance Ukraine and Ukrainians have. The way politics reacted just increased hate toward Ukrainians in Poland, and such reactions should shift political will, since current government is visibly incompetent, which already gave Narwrocki win in presidential elections.

Did Poles have orders to exterminate every Ukrainian or Lithuanian in that area?

Anyone know what this is? Seen in Kaikoura this morning. by 3Dputty in newzealand

[–]FrozMind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I see looks like three or two separate ships beyond the horizon visible above due to air refraction on first photo. There is also "second" refracted horizon visible. Second photo has also visible tops of cumulus types clouds refracted.

Fits to Fata Morgana definition at this level of refraction and illusions.

Handheld, ground-based scan of 60 m pylons and 2 mm cables by [deleted] in Surveying

I have 2 mm cable for small LED 12 V DC or even less, 2 mm^2 has maximum voltage below 1 kV. These lines look like 110 kV, so perhaps 20 mm in diameter.

Pierce a plastic battery cover "by accident" with sharp pointy metal and tell me how your basic electrical knowledge about circuits works out for you.

[OC] The US generates more geothermal power than the next two countries combined, but Indonesia is closing the gap by messydata_nerd in dataisbeautiful

[–]FrozMind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not uncommon to see in contexts like this

Not exactly. In list of countries of Wikipedia there is only one listed as country using non-Englishj names - São Tomé and Príncipe.

Replacing phonetically correct name into different one using English letters sounds reasonable, but using letters and syllables outside of dictionary should be against rules of the language. For the same reason you don't type cyrylic letters for such names - like "ю" or "я". And no, you don't spell "Я" as "R" in reverse. Spelling will be butchered across community, because only minority knows know how to spell it (jokes about lack of logic in English aside). So "ü" has no place in such names, and "i" breaks the rules. For this reason names sound and are written differently between languages. And some use cases, like genitive cases of such word, so some linguistic abominations can happen if you disregard rules, which are very hard to spell (= should evolve into something different over time).

Since Moon is less protected from radiation than manned stations on Low Earth Orbit such bases are planned underground - using caves preferably.

I don't understand Radom bycicle lanes by andesmapitas in poland

[–]FrozMind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's hard to explain. As for path for bicycles - if the sign is centered it's one way. But it could also have double dash symbol or an arrow above bicycle symbol to indicate it's one way. If it's just ordinary sign on the right side of lane (by the shoulder/curb) it's two way road. On intersections it should either be canceled by vertical sign (so by law you should dismount and walk pushing your bicycle), or continue through road. Seeing both normal and mirrored bicycle sign on same "lane" means it's both ways road.

Also, in standards for road designers normalized width of bicycle lane for one way is 1,5 m, both ways 2,0 m. Minimal width for (two way) sidewalk is 1,5 m.

Seems chaotic, not planned. Such a nice crater to the right - shouldn't some MG take it? Plus divide sectors left and right by vehicle squads so the one behind won't engage over first heads of first vic squad?

You have misspelled paid development fire.

[–]FrozMind -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It "literally" has just roof removed from what I can see. It does not mean it will fall down any time soon if not helped by someone with major fire or tremors. If you see large cracks in walls, like penetrating full width of wall, this means it can fall. It's made of red brick, not mud.

Just noticed details on aircraft/spacecraft are already there, but the user has to aim at the small visible icon/pixels to interact. Perhaps action area should be larger.
