Didn’t you shoot university students for protesting the Vietnam war?

Awesome 👍

Librewolf’s extension store has refused Russia’s request?

For xpis that are on the store it’s absolutely correct. Which is the case here. It can be downloaded once and redistributed in any way (sneakernet) and installed offline.

Myself, just installed soundfixer via .xpi on windows 10 Firefox.

There is also no such thing as a “retail” Firefox.

I hope their values are not “get some good press”.

Firefox being banned (or even chrome) won’t change the outlook of Russians more than… fighting a friggin war (and doing badly).

You can still get the plugins via other means (getting them from somebody who already had them, getting a non flagged vpn to access the store).

In this context it’s better for Firefox not to be the illegal unpatriotic software.

They don’t block them. They stopped distributing them in Russia.

They are not disabling installed addons and you can always install addons from a file in Firefox.

Yes it will be more difficult to install and more risky to get a tampered version of the extension but if they did not comply the same problems would exist and extend to the actual browser.

Which is better than bricking a machine

Frankly " injecting a command after shell-metacharacters" makes it sound much more mystical and arcane than"just use the normal one liner syntax to run 2 commands"

As an American, I feel like this is somewhat familiar, and would have negative consequences.

Fucking poetic

Dude you could not teach a kindergartener, you are clueless.

It’s not sides, it’s outcomes.

Is Syria better off after the civil war? It’s still going to split between the same dictator, some islamic militias while many many people died and many more had fled. At least ISIL died off eventually.

I have no issue calling Assad or Putin evil. I just don’t have any delusions about who their opposition was and whether they were evil or not. If they won Syria would have been worse off today. There would probably even be a conflict with Israel, the US would promptly drop them, where Syria would get even more fucked.

But it is for your that this is a game. There are clearly good guys and evil guys and any effort to slightly undermine the evil guys is worth the cost (which is not borne by your or any of the good guys). Ukraine did not make this attack to improve the situation for any Syrian. You know that, you cheer them because they are on your team.

I also want to know how do you think the world should work. After all Syria is not the only dictatorship in the world. Should random countries attack Saudi Arabia? China? Israel? Pakistan? Eritrea? Sudan?

Don’t be obtuse the similarities between the the Syrian Arab spring and the maidan uprising are quite obvious if you actually know what either are.

Ukraine was not a dictatorship unlike Syria. Maidan succeeded and Russia attacked both openly in Crime and with ‘rebels’ in the East. Western support was limited till the next invasion by Russia.

Syria was a dictatorship. After the Arab spring the US started arming islamic militias and attacking Syrian forces. A couple of years later and we had fucking ISIL devastating a big part of Syria and that is when the immigration crisis from Syria peaked, not at the start of the civil war. The US kept supplying the ‘moderate’ islamic groups even though it was known that a lot of their equipment ended up on ISIL.

Do you really believe that any of the foreign interventions in Syria has benefited the Syrians? Do you believe it was meant to?

As opposed to ISIL and ‘moderate’ islamic militias? Or Turkey that occupies areas in the north?

Do you think life would be better for Syrians under them? After all the country was under the same regime for decades but the crisis started after the war.

You don’t care about Syrians, you most likely do not actually give a shit about Ukrainians either.

What exactly was Syria’s role in maidan?

Ukraine is also not the fist country that got invaded so I don’t think it’s somehow the ‘last country you should try that argument with’.

There’s the small issue that Syria is still actually a sovereign country. Though of course most westerners don’t really give a shit about countries in the middle east.

The controller had a weird and unfortunate shape. It’s still miles better than any PS controller due to Sony’s refusal to put the stick on a natural position for the the thumb.

Sega and then Microsoft (after the first huge iteration) got both general shape and analog positions right.

Cartridge is an indefensible choice, it was perhaps borne of Nintendo’s falling out with Sony that prejudiced them against CD. Nintendo probably liked that they were more difficult to pirate as well, gamers not as much evidently. The Gamecube going optical but with a bizarre reversed mini-dvd is even worse.

There’s also a complete absence of software from your post, whatever it’s shortcomings Nintendo and Rare pushed some amazing games on it which people remember fondly.
