Ah, well it was surprising you mention that other part in your comparison so vividly. And I'm not sure where I stated anything at all, aside from the fallacy of what-about-ism in regards to NATO and Russia. The rest you interpreted yourself.

What I don't understand is why "leftists" like you feel the need to vocally support an oligarch and dictator, instead of being able to say that the war in Ukraine is a pointless waste of human lives for which Putin is directly responsible as the aggressor.

So you are saying that Russia recognized separatist regions in Ukraine as a front to ultimately destroy Ukraine? And it is ok because NATO does the same?

That is a nice big quote you got there. But it doesn't say anything about right-wing governments, coups or anything the like. And I said, for the sake of the argument I'll pretend with you it is true.

Of course, surrendering is a great defensive strategy. I'm sure WW2 would have been a whole lot shorter if Stalin just capitulated right away. But I've got another brain tickler for you. The aggressor can end a war immediately, by not even starting it :)

Even if that were true (and I don't think even Putin is still pretending that this is what his special operation is about), you think the right recourse is to invade that country and attempt to annex it into your empire? Killing hundreds of thousands in a war of attrition? Really amazing peaceful moves from the certainly democratically elected leftist Russian president, bravo.

Ah, yes of course. How could I miss how supplying the people of a sovereign nation with weapons and intelligence in a defensive ground war against a foreign invader is building an empire. Thank you for pointing out the obvious.

That is just what-about-ism. The US doing bad things is no reason to allow other nations to fight imperialistic wars.

Unless I'm missing something, the post is plain wrong in some parts. You can't POST to a Cross-Site API because the browser will send a CORS preflight first before sending the real request. The only way around that are iirc form submits, for that you need csrf protection.

Also the CORS proxy statement is wrong if I don't misunderstand their point. They don't break security because they are obviously not the cookie domain. They're the proxy domain so the browser will never send cookies to it.

Anyways, don't trust the post or me. Just read https://owasp.org/ for web security advice.

It literally says in the post that his net worth is roughly equal to the median.

Wasn't there always a pay-walled subreddit, made by the community? I think you had to have had gold/premium to get invited.

Unciv is pretty cool, it is Civ 5 but you can play on mobile as well. It was great to have the "One more turn" feel while stuck on a train.

It is literally just Nvidia Encoder. So hardware encoding on Nvidia GPUs. What codes are supported depends on the GPU
