@slashdot It's a shame they didn't remove "real" Telegram app. Probably didn't want to piss of FSB too much.

@slashdot It is also leaking everything to FSB, but that's a feature, not a bug.

@Radical_EgoCom You can replace capitalism with socialism (and replace "profit" with "personal needs of elites") and it will still be true.

@Radical_EgoCom Your use of a word "certain" implies that there are implementations of socialism which have not fallen into this trap, do you have any examples?

@Radical_EgoCom I'd like to see any examples of the opposite. Implementations where there's no concentration of power in one hands and where the power is not handed over from one to the next generation in the same family.

@Radical_EgoCom No, these are not instances. None of these examples are states. And the same things were emphasized when the Soviet Union was created and look where it ended up.

@Radical_EgoCom None of these examples has anything to do with anarchy (or communism of any degree). Failed attempts to achieve some declared targets do not count either.Everything that is wrong with capitalism is very well known but every attempted solution ends up even worse in reality so far.

@BenareshGood example of what is possible in a capitalist country. Not an example I was asking about though.@Radical_EgoCom

@8petrosWe must have quite different definitions of success. In my view just the fact that something exists doesn't mean that it is successful.@Benaresh @Radical_EgoCom

@8petrosI consider scandinavian model successful. It is not perfect but is is working better than anything else so far. People are happier and living better lives.@Benaresh @Radical_EgoCom

@EU_Commission Are there any plans to standardize electric bike chargers? Maybe USB-C would work here as well?

@evgandr It is absolutely not true that "there's no choice". I personally know many russians who, instead of working for the evil government, in 2022 desided to move to Georgia/Armenia etc. and keep their high-paid remote jobs. Many of them say opposite - there was no choice except leaving russia.On the other hand, Ukrainians who have to defend their homes and bein bombed by russia on a daily basis - don't have a choice.@h4890 @kravietz

@h4890You have, of course, a right to your opinion even when it is a wrong one. Basing your opinion on some small subset of people who left the country and who you meat personally is realy not a good way to build an opinion.Anyway, it is remarkable how even in this situation, russians manage to present themselves as a victims. The same day their country bombed critical infrastructure and killed several civilians in Ukraine.@kravietz@evgandr

@evgandr Thank you for writing all this. Exactly what I'm talking about. Russian is always a victim in their eyes, never a perpetrator. Everyone is to blame - 1st world countries, the evil government etc. Ordinary russian has no agency and can tell you numerous sob stories about hardships they have to endure.Ukrainians killed by russia in their sleep at home have no stories to tell.@h4890 @kravietz

@h4890 That's a lot of writing to put blame for the war on anyone except where it belongs - the russian people.The west could do more but it does not change the fact. Listen to what Kasparov keeps saying:https://kyivindependent.com/garry-kasparov-without-decisive-military-defeat-there-wont-be-change-in-russia/@evgandr @kravietz
