dust off? I use par2 every day.

And duct tape is silver

Yes

Correct. They are ubiquitous in US airports.

Planting seeds.

Materials handler at a chemical plant.

Any outfit is pajamas if you wear it to sleep in.

Intersection of CMP and Backwoods people. Yeah, that tracks.

Okay, thank goodness. I can give you their number, maybe you should let them know they can work on my bikes.

I would take it a step further. Unless you are ready to do all your own repairs, buy from a company with a dealer network and a location near you.

edit: I hear you thinking “but for that same price I could buy two cheap Chinese import ebikes.” Yes, and they will both be collecting dust inside a year unless you fix them yourself.

Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.

Most websites used to have way fewer ads and we blocked them anyway because of the ads with malware and them being annoying when they did show up.

So then people without ad blockers are shown even more ads. So then more people start to use more and more aggressive adblockers to deal with i truaivw ads, so corpos display more ads…and so on and so on.

My point is that we have tried your suggestion. The Internet in 1998 was very different.

Different countries have different providers, use different radio frequencies, etc and thus have different hardware and so on. Phones made for a particular market might not function well (or at all) in another market. This has historically been a barrier to cross-border adoption, though it has gotten a bit better in recent years.

Okay, we are talking past each other and I am done with you. Bye forever.

The drug war is and has always been primarily a class war.

The US has honored both the spirit and letter of this commitment and to date has provided over half of aid Ukraine has received, with it largely uninterrupted even under Trump. At worst, the US is an unreliable partner to Ukraine who should do more. Since the War began, Ukraine has been the US’s largest foreign aid recipient. In absolute terms, the US is still the largest single donor (iirc it was nearly matched by the EU, so maybe is matched by now.)

No reasonable person could claim the country who provided half of Ukrainian aid isn’t helping.

Horseshit. GTFO with this vatniki talking point.

The phrase “security guarantees” was specifically excluded. The phrase “security assurance” was a distinction made by the US State Dept lawyers for this exact reason; it makes clear the US is not a guarantor. This has been well known since the signing so no misunderstanding here is reasonable. That is just your distortion of the facts.

Go read the full text of the Budapest Memorandum and then come back and provide a specific citation. I’ll be here waiting.

Yes, I’m aware. FYI, the phrase is a common slogan in Ukrainian, since 2014.

Crimea is Ukraine.

Indeed.
