Not everything: if I buy your domain after it expires, I certainly cannot read your email!

What about sending sms to other countries though? I have free domestic sms but pay like 0.20€ for international (within EU).

… London?

It’s simple. Ukraine is fighting to get their home land back. They are smart and will not destroy the power plant. This is undeniable fact.

On the other hand, Russia is driven by a power hungry maniac, and they have shelled the plant before. They also had their troops dig trenches in the irradiated soil - poor sods will all die from cancer, if not from acute lead poisoning. This is also undeniable fact.

If we agree on this, let’s have a discussion. If not, I will consider you an unusually eloquent but still Russian troll and block you for wasting my time.

Because Russia deliberately attack the power plant, that is an attack on the world. It seems to me that you read it as if Ukraine did this attack?

I think you read that the wrong way 'round. It makes sense to me, in the context of being against the stupid Russians.

If they keep shelling a nuclear power plant, then it damn well won’t be a nuclear ACCIDENT.

Vimes’ theory of boots!

The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money. Take boots, for example. … A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. … But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that’d still be keeping his feet dry in ten years’ time, while a poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet.

Arguably, the time from when a girl is born until she becomes a mother herself is rising significantly.

That time might have been 20 years a century ago but is closer to 25-30 years in western countries now.

It’s clearly working very well for itself, but it’s doing it for the benefit of the stock holders, not for the community, not for the employees, and certainly not for the environment - those are all just annoying cost factors that must be minimized to maximise profits.

I am saying this is not sustainable, and we have now reached that point. People have several jobs and still can’t pay their bills - that’s new, and a sign that we’ve reached the limit.

Capitalism has eroded society to the edge of what is tolerable. The push for infinite growth has pushed the world to the extreme, with 0.001% of human holding 99.999% of the riches.

We are now at a point where growth cannot continue because the customers are too poor and the thumbscrews are all the way in. And yet, corpos want more. It will break - very soon. Then what happens?

I was thinking of paperclips.

USA was never a democracy, though. It’s a republic, and recent decades have shown it to become more and more the banana variant.

Wikipedia:

The United States is a federal republic of 50 states

It’s nearly 500 000 now. Insane.

How can a country as large as Russia be dependent on a tiny and thoroughly sanctioned country as North Korea? How can NK possibly have anything better than Russia?

Just a sentence, please kind sir, not a video?

Russian something goes boom but it’s not their economy… unless that’s also what an implosion sounds like.
