No, I only know and searched in english. I assume its a combinaton of not responding to take down requests and more crawling of illegal sites to begin with. But yeah you could find a pdf or stream of anything on yandex.
I had a C64, and couldn't type terribly well, so typing in those programs listings from magazines without a typo was a frustrating cycle that made the end result more satisfying when it finally ran. I have to imagine that was more intense with the shite keyboard on these things.
The reports make it seem like that.

There is a public source that lists all publicly available sourced vehicles destroyed (i.e. images via Twitter) and it's very lopsided, that said, we are aware the Russian may not be posting vids of of their wins.

Specifically, the Russians need and want propaganda badly, and what they are showing in their own propaganda is minimal.

It's the 'fog of war' surely, and it's possible Ukranian losses are worse than we think ... but not matter what the reality is, Ukranian 'wins' are unprecedented. We know for sure what the 'minimum' looks like and even that is bad for Russia.
> Ukraine doesn't prefer the Russian model to keep people poor and stupid, so they wouldn't protest.

The recent western model is one of the most debilitating model mankind has ever known.
> and (from Putin's POV) justifying the invasion.

Or more importantly perhaps: the big supporters like China and India that might otherwise have been able to get a word in edgewise and seen sanctions as justified to some degree.

(Edit to clarify: "big" here refers to the countries' size/population/power, not that their support is as "big" as Syria's or North Korea's.)
This article makes two important errors, unless I am much mistaken. [0]

First: the ZX81 was not a "Timex Sinclair" product on the day of its launch because Timex didn't get a licence to manufacture it in the USA until the following year.

Second: Sinclair Research was never (again, unless someone can correct me) a "Timex Corporation"!

If it had been, it wouldn't have gone conclusively bust and been given a new life by Grumpy St Alan of Sugar, the brave champion of British national technology pride.

"Timex Sinclair" was the US licensing venture (not the maker).

Timex pulling out of that deal (because the Spectrum was understandably too British in spirit to easily flog to a market that had birthed the Apple II and where the C64 was cheaper) is arguably the start of Sinclair's slow-building battle against the tide.

--

[0] Important in the sense that I, as a Brit of a certain age, must correct them in the interests of a kind of battered and timeworn national pride.

I would put these corrections in comments on the original article, but that would mean having a Disqus account, and in my experience that ultimately means encounters with trolls.
Do you honestly believe that elections in Russia (if they were elections, and not just a show with predetermined outcome) were decided by NATO expansion? (which never happened without being signed off by Russian governments anyways)

Yes, NATO expansion has been used as an excuse by hawks/imperialists. But given recent experience there is absolutely no base for assuming that they would have had any trouble making up others.
> I think I enjoy the game less now that I've improved, as overall the game seems more predictable, it seems more like chess as there are certain openings and 'life and death' scenarios that you will see again and again. Before, I loved throwing stones down, wondering 'what will happen if I do do this?'

How strong are you? I can imagine your description. Thinking about it, the game (seems to) become more narrow around 10k up to mid dan level. After that, it opened up again.
I wished they'd only filter by exit nodes but they grab everything including the relay nodes. That's annoying, otherwise I'd run a relay node at home.
I don't know much about politics or care even, but I did always assume that Russia has the capability to wipe out Ukraine if it wanted to? Maybe someone who is educated in this can give me a clear answer.

(I don't mean nuclear wipeout, I mean in general based on army strength and weaponry.)
It would be easier for the TOR project if there did scripts and distro's for different devices. What surprises me the most, is this would seem ideal for the raspberrypi and other SBC because one could be setup and then just left to run.
Thank you for this comment, you shed some light on something I considered too opaque to dig into and made it clear why this would be useful.
You didn't even mention the name of one european country outside Ukraine and Russia. Your vision is US centric.
List of the tech companies taking action against Russia
I don't think dropping nukes on Ukraine is something Russia would even consider. It makes absolutely no sense from their perspective.

What I fear is a Cuba crisis style standoff where Russia sets an ultimatum demanding the West stop all arms deliveries to Ukrainian forces, threatening any transit countries (such as Poland) with nukes.

China, Russia, and US are involved in frequent cyberattacks against each other without leading to physical escalation. Plus, NATO CCDCOE accepting Ukraine into the fold appears to be a knowledge sharing relationship to enhance cyber security and resilience without an offensive orientation.
All those people grew up in a time where the US had the rights to own the west and the Soviets the east and all their beliefs are forged to not trigger a direct war. Everything they say has the undertone of “don’t make the Russians mad” so I would acknowledge that put don’t put them in a pedestal, also since many of these “great minds” are among the worst death salesmen of the 20th century.

Putin has been playing this game since day one, he belongs to the group that wants Russia to be imperial again, ie. Right before the bolcheviques. The only “innovation” is he doesn’t see full on invasions alone as a viable option to accomplish that.
Why is this true?
Sometimes, deescalation is through escalation. 20/20 hindsight, but Europe should have never allowed Georgia and Crimea to happen with the responses they did.

I won't posture as an international policy expert, but I cannot believe there were no "stronger" responses to the initial seizures that would have prevented Russia from launching the Ukrainian invasion.

Sanctions are a least-politically-risky option for a democracy, from a popular perspective. Putin's takeaway was that he could invade sovereign territory with only an economic response from the west.

If you're going to pursue a course of action that Russia sees as endangering its strategic interests (promoting democracy and NATO membership in states that border Russia), then you need an equally strong threat (from Russia's perspective) to restrain their response.
I assume you've joined the foreigner legion and are posting these dumb takes from the front lines yeah?

Not wanting to die over someone else's war isn't cowardice, its sanity.
Yes I had exactly this issue— I had to keep straining my neck so I can see the monitor through the “sweet spot” at the bottom of my reading glasses. So I read somewhere that computer glasses are a thing, but didn’t want to pay LensCrafters another ~$300+ for glasses. So I went online to Zenni Optical , and entered my normal prescription, plus the all-important PD (self measured Pupillary Distance, which your optometrist will NOT tell you), and specified “computer glasses” and got a pair delivered for around $60. I don’t recall if I measured the distance to the computer… but that’s a good point obviously, maybe I will get another pair and do it right.

If anyone has recommendations for glasses online I’d appreciate hearing those. Warby Parker seems good, haven’t tried them. Zenni wasn’t bad, the glasses seem slightly off, it could be due to my self measurements.
War being threatened by a nuclear power like Russia carries with it the “catastrophic risk” of the end of the world, with billions of people dead. Even if one were to wholeheartedly believe that the hyperbole in your comment was an entirely plausible outcome of January 6, the Russian tweet is far more dangerous than anything related to the Capital riot.

It’s outrageously hypocritical that the Russian official’s account is alive today. They didn’t even slap a warning label on his tweet.
Yes but walking is rarely the cause that issue.

'Walking is not for everyone' and 'Exercise is not for everyone' is technically true since it is going to do more harm than good for a small subsection of society.

It is even more true that some people should not run marathons or ultra marathons, but it would be odd to notice that then write an article based on that evidence that 'walking is not for everyone' rather than 'marathons are not for every one'. And when I have read of serious consequences of meditation it is from doing the equivalent, or more than, an ultra marathon, but then the conclusion is the equivalent of 'walking is not for everyone'.
Some sort of a web of trust based on fingerprinting has been discussed, but it's an abstract idea still. Currently I don't think a blockchain would bring any added advantage- in my mind there is no need for unobserved codes that are older than a few hours unless someone emerges from a jungle or similar place with zero internet coverage to distribute the photography. The whole idea is that outside observation needs to happen rapidly for social proof to emerge, based on which journalistic organisations could make editorial decisions.

Brandon is a great writer, who created his own multifaceted universe through a large volume of interconnected fantasy novels. His world building is excellent and his work rarely disappoints. He practically saved the Wheel of Time, that had become a slog until he took over.

Other authors can be envious, but being vocal about that jealousy feels petty. It's a free market, the customer decides where the money goes.

Abstinence-only sex education pushed by religious fundamentalists. Prophylactics are widely available (often free from any Planned Parenthood), but demonized.

"The United States ranks first among developed nations in rates of both teenage pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases. In an effort to reduce these rates, the U.S. government has funded abstinence-only sex education programs for more than a decade. However, a public controversy remains over whether this investment has been successful and whether these programs should be continued. Using the most recent national data (2005) from all U.S. states with information on sex education laws or policies (N = 48), we show that increasing emphasis on abstinence education is positively correlated with teenage pregnancy and birth rates."

> I am from the UK and if my government were doing this I would gladly welcome sanctions and be outside daily protesting regardless of the consequences

Selective memory, eh. Iraq and Afghanistan like to have word with you about you going outside daily protesting against your country.

Edit: To add, consider the brutal history of British empire and how they invaded, occupied, and looted a large part of the world.
Maybe a code formatter should be just brutally simple and predictable. Fearing the look of long, complicated statements, coders will shorten their statements and just do one thing per statement.

Yes, and the contents of those discussions have been released under FOIA.

>This was such a minor topic that Gorbachev didn't even recall it ever having been on agenda.

I have no idea why Gorbachev's memory failed but it's clearly there in the minutes. In many discussions.

Pretending that it never happened is a lie.

>The Soviet Union doesn't exist anymore

Russia is the successor state.
This is repulsive.

There is a 'Hitler supporter' in every random group of 300 people you can assemble on the planet.

Those 'Angry Nationalists' would not have existed were it not for Putins constant interventions with Yanukovich and then the 2014 invasion.

No Putin intervention -> no Nazis.

FYI Zelenky was is joke, a turd, totally 'the wrong person' - his heroism is due to what he is doing, not what he was. Whatever kind of 'quesitonable leader' he was before, he is now 'Churchill'. He's a figure of history now.

This sounds like you where runnig a relay and not a bridge. Bridges are not public so your bank had to actively harvest them to block you which seems unlikely.
Sure, but that ignores the elephant in the room: if not de-escalation then what?
>> It's a horrible situation! Where is our humanity?

Our humanity is and must be placed squarely on the task of stopping the aggressor.

Authoritarians, dictators and despots do not stop by themselves. They stop only when they are stopped by external forces. They will ALWAYS try the next available outrage and takeover.

Appeasement and de-escalation has been tried, and the only result was yet another nation laid to rubble by Putin. He did not stop after Chechnya. He did not stop after Georgia. He did not stop after Syria. He did not stop after Crimea. He will not stop after Ukraine.

When would you have us stop him? When he is bombing Warsaw? Or should we wait for Paris? How about London? Or should we wait until the rockets are falling in Washington DC? When?

Nuclear blackmail is still blackmail, and it is a fools game to pay the blackmailer.

Moreover, all other authoritarians are watching. If Putin is allowed to succeed in Ukraine, we can be very sure that Xi will go after Taiwan next.

This is literally the fight for the free world. If we do not oppose it and stop it cold, it will continue.

It is better to die standing than live on your knees (but if you want to live on your knees, I'm sure you'll be welcomed).

So wise to share the failures and pitfalls, along with the successes.
How are western countries escalating the conflict? It was Putin who started massing his military at Ukraine's borders in autumn last year.

The west was ready to talk but Putin's demands to return NATO to what was before 1997 were insane and impossible. It's the same when I say "I want your wife, 50% of your monthly salary and your house. See - I'm ready to negotiate, but these are my demands, if you do don't agree I will take your house by force anyway"

How do you suggest to de-escalate? Putin has attacked another country, what else should we do? Ignore what they are doing and wait until he attacks another one of his neighbours?

You just sound like one of the 'concerned' people who are Putin's trolls or apologists.

Unfortunately there are many of you here in the comments.
Imagine doing if(x) ..., where x can be NaN. Shouldn't that throw an exception in most cases? Why are our compilers not doing it that way?
It's sad to see incompetent IT block random bridges and relays. I would be stubborn and switch banks, to be honest.

Your power company story is even worse, because the people who supposedly know how computers work couldn't be bothered to find out how running a bridge does has nothing to do with requests coming in.

I wonder if these companies are so aggressive against things like cheap VPNs and Apple's private relays as they are against TOR.
Also in 1918 the US, UK, France, Italy, Czechoslovakia, Estonia, Romania etc. invaded Russia.
I would not say that I think that the virus came out of the laboratory but I don't see how the published research here proves that.

It only shows that things started to spread from the market. And as there are animals susceptible to host mutation of the virus that 'could' come from there.

But this analysis does not rules out the fact that the virus leaked of the lab with someone that went first to the market once contagious to spread it accidentally.
I don't know about Mexico or Canada, but Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland are all both Russia's neighbours and NATO members.

Either Russia is not a superpower or it's not that relevant.
Thank you! I haven't used Lightsail yet, so in addition to doing something meaningful with the credit, it could also be a good learning experience.
Are they common? I think they’re high profile, but what makes you think they’re more common than any country where they’re more available?
I would do that. What's the alternative endgame? Ukraine is a country begging for help from the west and specifically a no-fly zone while Russia is shelling them not caring if it hits civilians. Surely at some point you need to stand up for what you believe in.
I mean, from the look of it, most of them are stood in queues doing nothing.
Ah yes, the RAM pack wobble. Was common as heck upon the original Sinclair expansion. There was however 3rd party RAM upgrades and those in comparision proved less prone to such wobble and with that regard, I was pretty alright with the one I setteled upon. But such PCB edge connectors were common then, less so these days.
Thanks for your point of view. I agree that we should pay more attention to motives of aggressor. That helps us understand beyond.

Still I'm very sceptical about sanctions that affects mostly innocent and poorest people and destabilise overal economy that is already very fragile. Just look at the history, what happened after Spanish influenza and escalated in 1928. Today, with technology all this could happen again but much more quickly.

Even more I'm worried about censorship. What make our values differnet if we implement exactly same politic that we fight against?
> I feel like a lot of the sanctions are targeting the Russian people as a whole, and because I do know some Russians I can see how tough the situation is turning on them... even though they are as innocent as any other civilian in this war.

This is an important observation, the point of the wider sanctions is to pressure the Russian people to push back at their own leaders rather than the West/Europe.

It’s a very tight and difficult line to follow, the ideal outcome is to apply just enough pressure on the citizens of Russia to effect regime change. Starting at the top with applying that pressure to a small number of influential people and moving down to effect more of the population without the push back in the wrong direction.

I hope it works and they don’t go too far.

I feel for all ordinary citizen everywhere effected by this. It’s not their fight they have been drawn into.
It's cheap.

It's costs nearly a million dollars to train, prepare and support a lowly US soldier. Then multiply that by the fact every fighter has 5 admins somewhere in the chain backing him up i.e. commanders, support, communications, intelligence etc..

Especially given that it is basically 'riskless' i.e. no US soldiers will die.

$4B to wipe out the Russian Army? Deal of the Century.
In what circles is it socially unacceptable to not have a job? I know of no systematic studies of who does this kind of thing and who does not and what the relative prevalence is, but of my entire extended family on both my side and my wife's side, other than my wife, I can't think of a single wife that has a job, and none of them pretend to have jobs, either.

If we're talking solely of the class of people who own horses kept in upscale stables and have the leisure time to ride them daily, then perhaps for them simply maintaining a household and raising children isn't enough and they feel idle if they don't pretend to have jobs because they can pay full time maids and nannies and maintaining a household and raising children really isn't time consuming and leaves them too much idle time. That is hardly a common position to be in, though.
> Now let me dose it with gasoline: Not many hardcore “feminists” around.. where did they go?

I would guess many are fighting or supporting the war effort and their country in other ways. Also leaving with your kids doesn't mean one is less feminist, just that you want less of your family to die. Compliance doesn't equal agreement.

"And finally, if you're interested in supporting this kind of thing financially, I did set up a Patreon account with the goal of trying to turn this into a potential career of an independent researcher, not tied to any institution necessarily, but just being able to continue doing the research and the teaching the work that I do, perhaps writing books, and the second edition of my current book is potentially in the works."
"Second, they employed photographic evidence posted on Weibo, a Chinese social-media website, as well as contemporary accounts, to show that the market, which vends other goods besides seafood, was selling animals susceptible to the virus."
I just did a quick DuckDuckGo to find some stats, but according to the first page I found, the US is not even in the top ten (the top one being Russia according to the site). The US seems roughly on par with other developed countries.
It might be that it seems more common, as it seems to be a more contentious issue in the US than among its peers.

Have you not heard that Putin lamented the end of the Soviet union and his goal has been building Russia into an empire again?

You are assuming that Russia will stop conquering it's neighbours. Or that it would be a good neighbour if "it was left alone by the west" - what ever that means?
Does any of this matter as long as Russia is able to sell oil?
