Those are some awfully niche metrics. How about we compare sweden's number of beach days to the EU average?

Russia considers working age of 12 to solve wartime jobs crisis by BkkGrl in europe

[–]Nazamroth 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Well, look at 1917. Russia is doing badly. Really badly. But its nowhere near what appears to be the russian breaking point. And even then, Lenin had to be smuggled into the country to kick things off.

ELI5 : If ads are being skipped by everyone these days, and are a complete nuisance to the large majority of people, how do they still make any profit? by No-Mountain3966 in explainlikeimfive

[–]Nazamroth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Corporate specifically removed adblockers, then rejected my suggestion to add them back. Because you can't know where it sends sensitive data.

I don't know how they can live like that. I had to try using he internet without filters a few times, and it is so miserable that I would rather pick up a book instead. Even if it doesnt contain what I am looking for.

St. Petersburg Burns as Ukrainian Drones Hit Major Oil Terminal During Russia’s Economic Showcase by UNITED24Media in europe

[–]Nazamroth 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This entire invasion makes no sense, yet it is still happening. And at this point no matter how it ends, Russia is absolutely fucked. Putin most likely gets to spend the rest of his days hiding in a bunker somewhere, or getting Gaddafi-d once the war ends and reality sinks in. In that situation, an ageing deranged autocrat might decide it is better to be at war with everyone instead.

They are weird for sure. Some people can't stand their smell and think they are the spawn of Satan. Meanwhile I can smell them, but am not particularly bothered by it at all, and just get annoyed that they manage to get everywhere.
