I guess that sort of thing is very individual. My house payments have not changed at all. Food and natural-gas prices have skyrocketed, and I drive so little that petrol increases hardly affect me.

That's going to be no good soon.

Why is everyone here blaming Wimbledon? Comparing them to IOC etc? Saying they took a bribe or something. The AEC (owners of Wimbledon) and the LTA (Queens Club etc) were the only tennis associations to ban Russian players and were punished by the ATP and threatened with expulsion. ATP are the ones who would need to impose a ban if it was going to happen otherwise we're talking about 2 weeks of the tour they couldn't play.

As I understand it, even though the action is instantaneous over distance due to entanglement, because neither party can communicate this to the other, information isn’t traveling faster than the speed of light.

It wouldn’t be. Even in modern settings, POTS isn’t just copper anymore. It is copper from a Central Office to the customer, Central Offices are connected together through fiber connections.

So when you are making a call, you are connecting to a telephone switch via a copper connection. The telephone switch talks to other switches via fiber.

Yes, because, based on their research, they estimated that he will die at some point.

Maybe to plants it is.

Is this the India that cancelled a Moscow arms deal back in March 2022, and is trying to stay neutral here?

lol so you admit invading Iraq was a bad idea but somehow we should have went into Iran who has not attacked us and that's somehow a good idea?

How about no more decade+ mideast wars for a change?

You’d think so. But the outcome is still very undetermined.

And goddammit, your name. 🤣

Yes and no. For easy to grow varieties best you can get is 400-500grams of fruit per plant, so if you want anything close to a yield you need more than a pot of dirt, at least small plot of land with couple dozens of plants.

The IMF wouldn't give out the loan if they didn't expect to get it repaid eventually. They probably see this loan as a way of helping to ensure Ukraine wins.

Goodbye social services.

That would be the 3rd genocide against Armenians if they do it. People talk about the Armenian genocide of 1915-1923, that resulted in 1.5 million deaths, but no one ever mentions the Hamidian massacres just 20 years prior, that resulted in up to 300,000 Armenian casualties. It was named after Ottoman sultan Hamid II, who wanted to further islamize the empire. About 25000 Assyrians were also killed.

There definitely seems to be a habit developing in the region, a habit of genociding Armenians.

Edit: I just found this list actually, seems there are even more, and generally caused by anti-christian sentiment.

Can’t say that I know much about it but the concept seems unworkable. Everything humans do is at odds with the rights of nature.
