Which would be fine if we wasn't such a weirdo about men who aren't him wearing makeup
For sure. In that moment Gore was wrong, powerful, and inflexible. He wound up being more flexible than his Republican counterparts, but I think you're well within your rights to say they've never properly repented for those actions. They've mostly just kinda been like "its in the past, just let it be in the past" when it's like... Man, you were an arms dealer in the culture war. You got the power and the platform to combat climate change by harming queer, black, and queer and black kids.
i view it as everyone is wrong about shit sometimes. the real problems arise when you're wrong, powerful, and unwilling to be flexible
Rest area payphones. Its why most rest areas have a huge blown up atlas map these days

The location of the target sends Russia and hopefully some of the Russian populace two messages:
- Ukraine has the technical capability to hit Moscow

The main concern is going to be hardware reliability from wear and tear. That's the value of buying refurbished, for which there are several reputable retailers online (some of which selling degoogled phones with their own OSes).

BRICS is more about resisting european hegemony to establish a new hegemony than anything. As a unit, sometimes they'll say something real as hell, but generally speaking 90% of what they do is the same evil backstabbing shit we always talk about the US doing to influence global economics and sustain power. When BRICS is taken into consideration with the G-7 what we actually see is a two party system of global torture that more than anything wants to maintain the basic status quo, they just want to shift slightly who's on top
10 years ago he published a game that went viral for being a specific addictive form of frustrating. Some people bullied the shit out of him so he divorced himself of his game and out the whole thing behind him. Fast forward 10 years, because he divorced himself of the game he didn't really think about it when his IP protections expired. This had consequences when unscrupulous motherfuckers published a clone of his original game as a crypto scam of some sort (I haven't looked into the specifics yet). So now he has to think about his old game again and tell all us he's not scamming us

Go cheap, and go second hand if possible
Proton, Tuta, Mailbox.org, Posteo
All are equal in terms of their overall quality of service, just different in what advantages they offer (except for Mailbox.org and Posteo. They're just offering standards compliant email servers without any bullshit and let you roll your own encryption)
From a business perspective: more control over the manufacturing process and less risk of getting hit by tariffs
