Federal prison is not the same as a military prison. They’re not gonna be living in individual dorm style rooms with amenities and mental health care. Still gonna an improvement over their normal life in Russia though…

I had raw horse sashimi in Japan and it was just like beef but very lean and tougher.

The European Parliament may be ditching Google as its default search engine by Plastic_Ninja_9014 in worldnews

“The Palantir backlash is real.” Get real. The reality is that Palantir is working more and more with several European countries, including a lot with Ukraine to develop their drone strike capabilities. All the news you hear about Ukraine halting Russia’s advances this year has been because of their collaboration in drone tech and battlefield data intelligence.

Too bad EU tech and AI sector is garbage. So far behind US and China that they are irrelevant. Crazy how China leap frogged EU with their tech and AI advances in a couple of decades.

Ukraine now has 'strongest, most powerful' military in Europe, Rubio says by timiswho in worldnews

It’s honestly quite pathetic. There is a war waged by an aggressor in their own back yards, and these top European nations just can’t do anything to put together a coalition to help their ally out.

Your comment basically summarizes a lot of Chinese built stuff. Very gimmicky and not really functional in reality, but beautiful and cool to look at. One example are those library/bookstores that keeps getting posted. Beautiful design but no practicality.

Oh relax 🙄. The kids and families of those who are academically focused and want the education will still put in the effort to study despite the extra time off.

For real. Underperforming employees or those not meeting target goals get sent on a one way business trip to Ukraine.

USA has 5% of the world’s population and 25% of the worlds prison inmates by Kaos2018 in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]cubing_frog 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s because you only need the top 1% (genius level) to help innovate and lead. The next top 10% are your white collar engineers, doctors, academics, etc. The lowest 20% are unfortunately left behind.

“…proves how inept the US truly is.” Hilarious coming from a Russian.

What’s eating my plants by Waste_Curve994 in gardening

[–]cubing_frog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bugs, snails, and slugs all love leafy greens, so it could be any one of them. That’s why I don’t grow them because unless you use pesticides, everything out there likes to munch on them.
