You are discussing on a platform created by a man who praises people like Lenin & Castro. Richard Stallman resigned over some comments on Epstein victims. Free software is like that sometimes.

Yes, but there USA were fighting the locals. Here it’s moskals who is fighting the locals.

And funny you bring up Afghanistan, USSR went down also because of invading it.

Moskals can’t afford to wage the war for three more years.

Less than how many would die by the rampaging horde if Ukraine gave up. Judging by what happend in Bucha, Irpin, Mariupol or elsewhere.

I mean, it’s commendable they are still making updates. But there is a lot of stuff thats still not OK after all those years and probably won’t ever be. The cars require low server load and OK connection, otherwise you can still get the Laika experience. Also no helicopters apart from some mods. But the zombies were mostly OK last time I played.

I take it you haven’t bought DayZ in early access.

Israel has something like 35000 people in it’s air force. That’s a tiny air force.

That’s very relative. While it may seem tiny from US or Chinese POV it’s more than the whole militaries of many European nations even twice as big as Israel.

They have brown bears, but they have been eating their faces already before the elections - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3YveLCOhQ8

The difference between drug and poison is dosage.

Taliban is obviously OD.

Perhaps look into Space Engineers in creative mode? Although you can’t “build” the terrain and it does have it’s own sci-fi art style.

Compare that to the turbine in a coal or gas plant, which can archive up to 90% efficiency.

Nope, you might have seen 90+% efficiency when talking about steam power plants, but that’s the efficiency of the generator(converting the mechanical energy of the the rotating turbogenerator to electricity). You have to multiply with the efficiency of the turbine(converting the energy of the heated gases into the mechanical energy) and there the efficiency is much lower, ~40% for a coal fired and maybe <60% for a gas combined cycle.

The same as putin.

Passenger information systems in public transport. Some might run some kind of embedded windows, but most run on Linux. Certainly here in Czechia, but I believe it’s common at east throughout the Central Europe.

You know which russian neighbour also didn’t have any problems? Norway. And you know what? They have been a NATO founding member. Coincidence? I don’t think so. The only one who is going to have a problem is vova.

I understand this is a near impossible task, but sports (particularly the athletes) and politics should stay separate.

That ship has sailed in the 1936 at the latest. Every authoritative regime will sooner or later try to use successes of their athletes for propaganda(the “neutral flag” sham notwithstanding). There is no reason to give them the opportunity.

And that it affects the careers of the athletes? Maybe, but let me remind you that Ukrainians are still dying, probably by hundreds a day. And so do their athletes.

It’s a 2 years old car, if you suggest that the range falls down to 50% in just a two years that’s probably even worse news than the marketing lies.

Followed by Propaganda accounts having shower thoughts not about Tiannamen Square.

Lemmygrad seems to be full of tankies and has been here for a long time…

It has an option to use Open RC init system instead of systemd. Systemd probably isn’t as annoying anymore but I can’t be arsed to make the switch.

You suggesting that Romanian authorities rely on tweets of some social media celebrity to arrest another one is not that different from Top scumbag himself suggesting he can bribe his way to stay away from prison in Romania. Both are pretty insulting to Romania.

Granted, yours isn’t as bad, yet you should still reconsider your position.

Czechia has a racism problem sure, but that map has no data on actual Eastern European countries so there is no comparison possible. Also you can’t reduce the question of being Eastern European on one metric. Was Belgium under Leopold II. Eastern European? Nazi Germany? USA before 1863?
