No, no, no. They are full in control, instead.

Well, contemporary world is full of examples of people being a far right dickbag, even though they declare the exact opposite (as a fine fascist would do), that are"histories of success"

In general I’d agree… In this specific occasion, dunno… The article talks about zero weapons, instead of several hundreds (if I got it correct). How could nobody in the command chain noticed this? Nobody had a conversation like

hey how’s it going in bakmut?

eh, they got literally zero artillery

wha? We spent more than $30m… Let me call…

? Then again, I’m getting old AND grumpy

I don’t understand how, during a war, people in apical roles steal money, and don’t flee with the money ($35m, even $1m… And you still “go to work” everyday?) to avoid getting executed under martial law. All the more as the theft is plain clear to see to anybody informed about the operations - no ammunition? And why? How’s this possible?

that’s why europe should wait for the right moment to cut the sweet €€

not saying anything, but Orban ain’t immortal… sooner or later he’s going to leave the govt. europe should cut money just at the perfect time, so that people would blame following shitty scenario on this white, old style, European man.

oh, in Italy he’s highly regarded inside lega nord (Extreme far right, xenophobic, nationalist party now part of the government) and widely estimated, although not always explicitly, by fratelli d’Italia (far right, xenophobic, nationalist party now part of the government)

no, we were excited we could have arcade 3d at home. but it’s 25 years ago, or some such… honestly I care more about “sweet memories” than historical correctness. nonetheless your memory, and will to share it, is more than appreciable, in fact I thank you for sharing.

ok my bad. legend in town was that inside coin ops there was saturn hw. but who knows… this is maybe true for me, and not for you.

you were disappointed and mildly concerned at the sight of the very first 3d fighting game? wow…

wish you to feel like the first time you played it

the users are holding their wallet the wrong way, probably

the perfect reply. thank you.

for them there’s lots of dangerous and deranged terrorists (in many cases known elsewhere as kids) or dictators (in many cases known elsewhere as regularly elected politician), but they ain’t able to see the most dangerous of all: the USers themselves.

no downfall for sj, pretty standard behavior from him. it was absolutely normal for him to deceive people. as for all billionaires. how do you think they make those riches?

aaaah… usa destroying whole countries: infrastructures, economy, traditional culture, health, art… how could one be against iraqi resistance? best of luck iraqi people, you’ve suffered too much and deserve peace.

I think she knows Paris better than Twitter. Anyway, I’d agree with her nonetheless.

they’re trying to limit automated scrap or the like. avoid that domain as much as you can

I thought it would sound like

ok bibi, hamas is in there

you know, it’s done to get on the same plane as the other person, like, ok I accept your premise

someone pointed out my bad English, though i think I’m not able to understand how I could express the same concept with better wording.

in any case, I agree that in general reading comprehension is at an all time low.

about downvotes, i take into account also multiple profiles. lemmy is “the new platform”, and I think I’ve met different profiles saying all the same thing with the same style.

good God, thank you. was really that hard, or badly written? someone pointed out my poor English. maybe some people can’t simply admit they’re wrong and so double down? I don’t know
