  • Doesn’t look that sovereign to me, if the US can dictate their foreign policy, funded 9/10 of its media outlets and they pay for their entire military apparatus (with LOANS, no less). That sounds like a satellite state to me.

    Anyway, you can keep plugging your ears and covering your eyes and pretending it hasn’t been explained to you a hundred times that Russia doesn’t need minerals, nor land, nor resources, but an assurance that nuclear capabilities aren’t being deployed along its border. I don’t mind deluded libs, y’all the ones burying the empire after all.

    Opensuse is absolutely not a set it and forget it distro. I get recommending your favorite distro to other users, but telling them it’s an easy to use distro is absolutely false and sets them up for disappointment. You have to download the codecs yourself if you want to do so much as watch a video on firefox, for which you have to add a new repo. I’ve tried it for two days and I’ve already spent half of them fixing bugs or snapping back to a version that worked because it froze after sleeping before I even did anything with it other than log in.





  • There would have been a war because the DNR and LNR seceded, and Ukraine refused to negotiate in good faith, choosing to bomb civilians into an unconditional surrender.

    We will all win! Because we will have a job — they don’t have one. We will have pensions — they don’t have them. We will have the support of people — children and pensioners — but they do not have it. Our children will go to schools and kindergartens, and they will have them sitting in basements. Because they don’t know how to do anything! That’s how, that’s how we’re going to win this war.

    Poroshenko said this in 2014.
