I’ve been pretty happy with my Apple AirPods Pro

I like the one when he had a single ass hair transplanted on to the top of his head.

Love your sense of humour. :-)

Being nice to people makes them happy to be around you.

Who’s that?

Do you have any references for this?

In Perun’s latest vid, he mentions that SK have a publicly stated plan to take out NK ‘top leadership’ in the event of war.

Ooh, look! The FSB is on Lemmy.

Let’s start with the second part of your question? How do you make someone understand that invading another country is not a good thing?

I actually like it. Thanks.

By the sounds of it, they had a lot of miles under their belt.

You have to wonder how they ended up dead? What happened to the EPIRB? Did they not have a PLB? GPS and Portable Radio?

I don’t know for sure, but I suspect there aren’t many pirates in the middle of the Atlantic.

I gather that many larger ships often either have malfunctioning AIS or don’t have it turned on.

AIS is a system that pings identity and location to other ships, and can set off alarms to warn of impending collisions at sea.

Petty much the view that Russia’s neighbours see when looking across the border. And the Russians wonder why nobody wants be friends…

Are you sure you are on the right server? I think Lemmy.ml is probably more your bubble.

The Eastern Bloc suffered an enormous drop in living quality following the dissolution of the USSR. Far from reaping a bounty via free market liberty, the people in these countries found themselves the subject of a historic privatization and looting of national treasuries and resources.

This is a black and white perspective. You have to keep in mind that citizens of these countries were significantly worse off as (involuntarily) being part of the USSR than the countries that were not in the Eastern Bloc, and most of them are now significantly better off as part of the EU. Most citizens remember the repression, shortages, and russification all too well.

Firefighter here. Brush and gently vacuum your smoke detector. Insects are attracted to the LED and can set off the alarm. They may be very small. Dust can also set it off.

Thanks tankie operative.
