While the conditions are terrible and it's obviously a made up charge, her governement is pretty much China.

She was born in China and lived in Australia from she was 10 until she was 20-21 and then she moved to China, where she has lived for the last 27 years. So ~37 of her 47 years was spent in China, and over a decade of that was spent working for a governement owned propaganda outlet.

She is technically an Australian citizen, which she became in 2003, after she had already moved to China.

They don't face any consequences, so why would they stop increasing it? They don't care about people, they just care aboout themselves and their money. So as long as nothing happens, they'll keep going.

To be fair, it's at least Rasberry PI microprocessor on a custom PCB inside the keycap, and not an off the shelf operational Rasberry PI with a fancy keyboard.

I'm guessing they're the ones who keep pushing the "europe abusing africa" memes recently as well, since they're the ones doing it now.

They're basically the PETA of climate change. Where they often harm their own cause because they operate by the creed that more people would be on their side "if they only knew", so most of what they do is designed mainly to get attention from the public.

A great example being the video of a medical professional yelling a bunch of them. Because they glued themselves to the main road ambulances used to get to the ER.

Stupid article aside, a large filling breakfast being good for you and the whole "breakfast is the most important meal of the day" is a complete and utter lie invented for advertisement.

It's a custom protocol that uses SSL/TLS for key exchange and such, so it can be detected. It's actually causing huge problems for many large Russian companies, as it's common to use those protocols for remote access, work, etc.

As mentioned in the article you need something like "Shadowsocks" to avoid protocl blocking, since it fully disguises the traffic as standard SSL/TLS. Which was created for, and is still used to circumvent this type of blocking in "the great firewall of china".

You'd recommened AC: Origins for a five year old?

I don't think the special scenes when you kill important targets would sit well with me. In one you smash someones face in repeatedly. You also play at least half the game as a male character.

Let's not skip over the fact that he probably got the dynamite from an abandonded house, so it's most likely pretty old.

And there were detonators there as well.

Then later they almost shut down their entire consumer film production because of digital cameras. So they were right in thinking it would massively impact them, but made some very wrong choices because of it.

Baths salts and a brick is a enough that the cryptid should be afraid.

I’ve read these stories multiple times now and I still don’t quite understand what’s happening.

That's because it's mostly lies and propaganda not aimed at you, but the Russian people.

Russians have been burning those offices for over a year, with it ramping up after people started getting forcefully recruited. Russia as always is trying to say it's not "real russians" doing it, but people influenced by "the evil west". It's their standard strategy when it comes to pretty much any set back, ever. In this case it's mostly blamed on "evil ukranian scammers", so they can keep justifying the invasion and occupation.
