I've already tried it. It plays like a fan project cobbled together by 2 people, with just enough effort to show it off for a couple of days before it's taken down by a copyright strike.

Do not recommend.

But the war has been going on for 30 years. It's just one operation within the ongoing war.

E, which stands for EDGE, is also "2G".

Afaik, it is. This news is blown out of proportion. Getting an approval to sell your shares takes like half a year, so these were actually sold way in advance. And he sold basically a couple of shares, compared to what he still holds. They are still scummy, but this is just an attention grabbing article.

Guys, you gotta cut these relatable memes. I'm starting to think I have autism.

Is it ok to point out that the text is not, in fact, green?

You're joking, but that's how I unintentionally use the web with Arc Browser. It has rounded corners and an adjustable sidebar of tabs on the ~~right~~ left*. The resulting viewport is ~~tightly~~ approximately* 4:3. Iirc, Edge can also have tabs on the side.

It depends tho. Overthrowing an authoritarian is usually considered a good thing. But mostly, it only depends on the success of the coup. Successful coup = we were heroes. Unsuccessful coup = they were traitors.

Hey, if I survived an invasion, I can certainly survive a little jab at my grammar policing ;)

Guilty as charged. But to be fair to Ruzzians, I was in Kyiv at the time of invasion. Perhaps, it was all justified after all.

A kind reminder that saying "the Ukraine" is incorrect. Just like using the article is incorrect with any other country name (unless it's a group of states, islands, etc.). And it may be triggering to some Ukrainians, because of the parallels to Russian "на Украине", which basically implies that Ukraine is a region, not an independent country.
