I think you're putting words in my mouth, never did I imply or think that Ukraine is responsible for what is happening, or that Ukraine is not right in wanting all their territory back. However, it is factual that if Ukraine wants to secure its territory, which is entirely justified, it will not be by means that are describable as "peace" or "peaceful", because russia is not backing down like complete idiots(a common theme).
Is what I am saying false?
Fair enough. I guess I've spent too much time seeing disingenuous calls for "peace" on the internet, mostly by pro-russia shills, with the intent of painting the western support of Ukraine as evil warmongering or something.
We do wish for peace ultimately, but there's a whole lot of violence to happen if it is going to be on Ukrainian terms, because russia does not look like it wants to back down.
Considering the Ukrainian position is basically "any loss of territory is unacceptable", there is little room for both peace negotiation AND support for Ukraine simultaneously. Tough position.
but working in tech I just know there's no such thing as "online gambling".
I wouldn't call pseudorandomess(if that's what you're implying) as disqualifying something from being gambling - it only needs to be random enough with an even distribution.
If instead you're talking about odds being slightly in favor of the house then... that's literally no different than gambling irl either. At which point, I have to question what you even define as "gambling".
That's the charm! Make one big goal, and it shatters into a hundred small, achievable ones.
The most impactful single decision one can make in terms of not making things even worse is not reproducing. It is the single most sustainable decision in terms of resource use, pollution and climate change.
The fact that people are voluntarily doing this is good, the presupposed "dangers" of population decline are dangers to the systems that demand infinite endless growth, which I would argue are dangers to people in the first place. Fuck 'em.
Mileage will vary depending on the type of games you enjoy. In particular, the worst group of games are multiplayer competitive with invasive anti-cheats - those tend just not work at all.
Otherwise, gaming in general has gotten very viable(especially easy on Steam), they run anywhere from okay to great from my experience.
I wouldn't trust anything involving fucking Kim Dotcom lmao
Maybe you're right. Best we can do is be active here.
speaking of leap days, I also considered using a quad-year as a unit, integrating the leap day as a standard day. 365.25x4=1461. But that only divides by 3 and 481, even worse!
Having a "remainder day" is weird, but it's hard to avoid. It really sucks that 365 doesn't divide nicely into much at all. 5 and 73 are the only non-trivial answers. five 73 day months? Can't even call it a month at that point.
I guess 13x28 + 1 does indeed make most sense...
What has me perpelexed is the fact that the USSR also did this, just to a slightly less genocidal degree - all the other SSRs largely served to supply the RSFSR, but some people do not consider it to be imperialist.
The greed for power and resources can stem from capitalism, but it really isn't the only possible cause.
