  • If dissenting online makes them feel like they are doing enough to not act IRL, yes.

  • The American people's passiveness with regard to "red lines" is about on par with Putin's overuse of the term. I expect a bit of whining online for 24-48 hours but no meaningful actions.

  • For now, as long as we all vote ABC...

  • Oh, and I use an 8bitdo controller with it and a Rii wireless keyboard and both work fine!

  • If you read the source you'll notice that year was an enormous outlier and their industry has been in decline for some time. Ukraine was an arms (and shipbuilding) powerhouse under the USSR but has been struggling to regain that prominence.

  • I don't know, I never really thought about that. I had my previous mobo for about 10 years and at that point it was becoming a problem, but for the first 7 years or so it worked fine. After 7 years there would be a new CPU socket anyway, so it would be a good time to upgrade.

    This is my build:

    • AMD Ryzen 7 7700X 4.5 GHz 8-Core Processor
    • Thermalright Frost Commander 140 BLACK 95.5 CFM CPU Cooler
    • Asus TUF GAMING B650M-PLUS WIFI Micro ATX AM5 Motherboard
    • TEAMGROUP T-Force Vulcan 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR5-6000 CL30 Memory
    • Silicon Power A60 2 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 3.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive
    • XFX Speedster QICK 319 Core Radeon RX 7800 XT 16 GB Video Card
    • Lian Li O11 Air Mini ATX Mid Tower Case
    • Corsair RM850x (2021) 850 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply
  • Hardware is very similar to my own build from last fall, except I went with a 7800XT. it's been running CachyOS since then and works superbly.

  • In the sense that they supplied the rest of the former USSR, yes, absolutely — but they didn't have much in the way of international exports.

  • And lots of Italians.

  • This is good because it helps them right now but can also be a pillar on which to rebuild their economy once this is over. Ukraine could find itself being a major arms exporter, like the South Korea of Europe.

  • I run it in a VM on my daily driver Linux machine and it works fine so far (after about a year)

  • Carney is a Keynesian.

  • Oh, so the two largest line items among Chinese imports.

  • Their idea of the rightful role of the state in everyday affairs was rather different though, wasn't it? If support of free trade were all that's needed to be a neoliberal, anarchists would be neoliberals too.

  • I’m an atheist, but I don’t think we should hate on other people based on their religion, tbh. The problem is the institutions and persons that take advantage of people’s faith.

    I'm not particularly anti-religious, but this is essentially the "not all men" argument in clerical robes.

  • It has been the sole economic theory in power in the US since the 1970s

    I'm not American so I may be missing something, but I find it hard to say that, for example, Carter and Reagan shared the same economic policy, or Obama and Trump. Only by flattening away any nuance whatsoever would those be called identical.

  • He is, actually! They're called Republicans.

  • Can someone who identifies as a leftist explain to me what "neoliberal" means? I have no fucking clue at this point.

  • Mistow Twump is fixting the stownks, down't stop buying owkay?
