That toaster looks older than the one I got during the soviet occupation and everything from then looks 30 years older.

No idea if I got ADHD or not but these memes are very relatable...

I do both: I worry about every detail and try to account and plan for everything which all usually falls apart because it feels like too many things and then I'm left with improvising everything on the last moment.

Even if you got money for jewelry why pick the boring pointy piece of glass? There are gems and materials so much cooler than diamonds. My personal favourite is jade.

Google still works in languages other than English, like my workaround has been to just search in Estonian and I'll usually actually get better results and like zero AI content (AI sucks at Estonian, can't even get grammar right). So if you wanna use Google learn an obscure language.

Stop subsidising air travel and people are gonna prefer trains and boats real fast.

Been to Russia and live on the border of it. Basically if you have a chance of beating Putin you aren't going to be an option to vote for. The part of the government who decides who will be the options is controlled by Putin. The approval is pretty much bullshit, I haven't asked everyone in Russia but I have yet to meet someone who supports Putin, especially after he invaded Ukraine.

How are contracts like this enforceable in the US? Like here you could have a clause like that but the moment you try to sue someone for working at a competitor the judge would just laugh at you and throw your ass out of court. You can't have just anything in a contract, just like if a contract breaks employment laws then it's not valid.

It depends on a lot of things. Something self-hosted would just cost the power and Internet you are already paying for but if you're renting the hosting and maybe even get development for your site it could cost a ton.

Honestly superhero movies are so overdone and samey that watching any of Marvel ones is like watching all of them, just radomized by an AI and DC movies have just been even worse. The best current superhero media I can think of is the Hartley Quinn animated one, Invincible and The Boys. The big studios should really move away from the formulaic writing and take some risks.

Countries really shouldn't have extradition treaties with the US considering the US refuses to work with the international criminal court and they'll have like the worst anti whistle-blower laws combined with some of the worst prisons.

Assange should be charged with whatever crimes he committed in his country not in the US.

I guess the US has more luck running a case where they have access to one side at least but it's not like this does anything as the US has no power to charge Russian citizens not in the US. Like this would sound more meaningful if the US worked with international institutions for this like the International Criminal Court in Hague for example.
