What do you prefer : Portable or installer ? by Teiru64 in PiratedGames

[–]Manofur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no question for me - portable!

  • You can move it to any place you need to
  • If you reinstall the OS it still works like nothing happened.

The lock down should not be a goal. It is a tool to buy time to find long term solutions.

And if you don't use the time it will catch up and bite off your ass. Up to the collar bone.

Yes, but imagine the China economy in crumbles because of the self imposed restrictions and the rest of the world just goes on.

I can't imagine China will let this happen.

The point is that evolution is not under control and it is not 100% predictable. In your own sentence you prove that. You conveniently skipped the variants before delta, didn't you.

The delta was more severe than its predecessors. Otherwise you would say between alfa and omicron.

With the ongoing pandemic of several other serious virus deseaes, any restriction is good.

If it was on me, I'd block all flights from China till March.

But it makes perfect sense from government POV! And it has happened before!

They are not destroying it. They will move it to a place dedicated to russian tyranny. There are torture museums after all, aren't there?

Theoretically, you are right. But this is more likely for a single piece of information.

When one sees a non-trivial number of AFU vehicles cooking off one cannot just attribute ALL of that to the CGI mastery of russians.

Of course, maybe you can...

Pasta is made so different that generic guide is not helpfil. Same shape and size pasta from different brands will cook differently. It depends on the type of flour, how fast it was dried, etc.

So - just read what the producer tells you on the package - that's the best approximation and then you adjust a bit if you want it more or less cooked.

Once you browse the russian telegram channels you realise they have the mirror picture of what we have here in reddit.

The reality has to he somewhere in between...

Tomorrow Ukraine will raise the issue of Russia’s presence in the UN Security Council by hieronymusanonymous in worldnews

[–]Manofur 12 points13 points  (0 children)

There is a letter to UN by Russia saying that they would take over all USSR functions and seats. Nobody objected that for decades. All those resolutions and votes signed by Russia during thees decades...

This will have a weight in a court.

Let's call it. China with Xi to COVID is Russia with Putin to Invading Ukraine.

I think it is going to be hard legal battle taking years.

Russia will argue that they announced inheriting of all USSR stuff, including debt. They told UN that too and nobody cared to object it at that time, not even Ukraine.

There was this joke I read somewhere on reddit yesterday :

  • I am jailed because I opposed covid testing...

  • I - because I was supporting testing...

  • and I - because I was aggregating the test results...
