If you look at "traditional" attempts at color revolution, most have failed miserably and the sponsors usually resorts to sending money and weapons by the shipload to the first wannabe dictator that showed up. To me, these gen-z revolutions and protests looks more like corrupt regimes struggling as russian, american and other foreign money dries up. Sort of like a lite version of Syria some time ago.

Of course! What would be the use for a machine that could only work when I am also in the office?

I honestly think British food is some of the most underrated in Europe. It is unfortunately a few years between each time I visit, but I am always blown away by the tea houses and pub food over there. Of course there is a lot of bad fastfood over there, but pointing to that alone would be like judging Norwegian food by our frozen pizza.

Depending on how you define tortilla, this is the default way in Norway. At least when I was a kid we grilled and ate them like this with ketchup, mustard and crispy onions, can recommend.

While I agree that would solve much of the motivation behind rewriting in rust, I don't think it would bring many of the rust-enthusiasts over to C. For me at least, the killer feature of rust is having a modern tooling and language with proper library management, functional stuff in the language and one language standard everyone agrees upon.

It is ca. 1 pm here, and I am amused. Thank you for your funny picture random person on the internet :)

I would recommend looking at the Norwegian system, where each region elects multiple candidates proportionately to the local votes, and all parties above a certain percentage nationwide shares a pool proportionally as well. It's not perfect, but it gives a sane amount of different parties without the inevitable deadlocks of 100-party systems. The national pool limit can tune the approximate number of viable parties.

I had a look at some of the recordings, and the whole thing was just poorly executed. Surely the us military can march better? I have seen kids in school wind orchestras get drilled to a much higher standard in a few evenings, some of the soldiers were walking completely out of beat with the rest.

I would have agreed with you if I thought such a war could have been fought conventionally, but a single nuclear missile slipping through the air defenses would be too high a cost to pay for anything outside NATO.

And how could we do that without Eastern Europe, London and Paris being turned into self illuminating parking lots?
