Russia is now over 1700 days into its 2 week "special military operation". There's no way to describe this other than a stalemate. No one is moving. No one is surrendering.

The cloud is someone else's computer. You're at the local arcade, throwing quarters in for the privilege of playing.

False equivalence. Google has a history of poorly running things into the ground. On the flip side looking at cloud gaming the segment has supported service for over a decade now. Stadia may have shut down but that was a service that came 4 years after Nvidia GeForce Now, a cloud gaming division that has generated enough revenue to remain running and operational for 11 years now (initial beta launched in 2015).

I've always found myself fascinated by the phenomenon of aggressors playing victim. Yes we are waging bloody wars of conquest, raze entire cities to the ground, massacre civilians and abduct children..... but ... but ... but.... why does the world so rabidly hate us? This is all so cringe and pathetic.

Why isn't this +5 yet? Shameful. They should bring back meta-moderation.

Maybe the jacket has a kevlar fiber for support?

Of course they would do that.

If they're not intelligence, why is making them fearful going to change that? Isn't the basic behavioral prediction that their decision-making will get worse when afraid?

If "fear works," why do workers with angry managers have lower productivity?
