If it federates, what does that matter? Just read the Japanese Misskey content.

Iceshrimp and Sharkey are forks of Misskey with more features. Are they still able to federate with it? How does Misskey federation work?

I’m a Finn, meaning that part of my ancestors arrived along the arrow ending in Mongolia on this map. (And then, after we had already spread westwards, other people with different looking eyes arrived to the areas where the ancestors of Finns had once lived)

Talk about a long way round!

I wish there was a way to efficiently spread knowledge inside NK that if soldiers surrender, they will be allowed to return to SK or NK according to their own wish. That would at the same time dramatically increase North Koreans’ willingness to help the Russia in the war, and just as dramatically reduce the North-Korean leadership’s motivation to send any soldiers to that war.

A lot of this was about neurodivergent people. How they had become what they are because of malice by fairies, not by happening to be born with a certain neurology that is likely to be even beneficial.

Yeah.

Impossible conveying a message of sarcasm if people cannot hear my voice.
That’s why there’s no sarcasm in the Internet.

This might be about the languages where the only “numbers” they have are “zero”, “one”, “a few” and “many”.

If a conversation was held in English, then for the speaker “two” and “four” are synonyms.

Misrepresent what?

Did she know back then what was coming?

It’s impossible that she would somehow not have known what was coming.

I suppose at some point people might be figuring out that Putin is not the same as Russia and that they are better off with a different set of institutions.

I have a feeling they won’t figure that out. I was talking with a person here in Finland just a few months ago, and they said “Putin is not a good president, but all the other options we have are even worse”.

…which is an absolutely bonkers thing to say. Who on Earth would be worse for the Russia than Putin is? Nobody else would have elected to continue this war once it was clear that Kremlin had fucked up. Even if they would have been bad, there’s almost no way they could have been worse than what Putin is doing now.

But still, that’s what the otherwise completely adequate-seeming Russian told me. The inability to see how bad Putin really is, is extremely deep in that people. The thought of Putin as the father figure of the whole country is so ingrained in the Russians’ heads that it will be only the generation after the next one that will be clear of it. And then the Russia can maybe start developing into a third-word country at least. And then maybe even back to being a second-world country.

The past for years experts have been talking about this going to happen around 2025 or at latest 2026. Because it has been inevitable, it has made sense factoring that into the strategies.

Many reporters have written about it in a way that has made it look different, but already in late 2022, experts who actually know the subject were talking about mid-to-late 2025 as the limit for the economy of the Russia. They did it get wrong by about half a year, but overall, I’d say the prediction was very accurate.

What was assumed that since the impending economical crash of the Russia was visible already in 2022, the Russia would have drawn the conclusions and left Ukraine. And therefore, by all logic, the economical crash of the Russia should have ended the war already in 2022 or 2023. But instead, the Russia decided to go for a suicide instead, because that’s what its people decided they want.

It’s because the scale of those US wars has been one percent of the war the Russia is now waging.

USA has not tried having a war with a peer. If it did. The result for its economy would be very similar.

What year did these two trips take place?

He’s being an idiot in other manners as well, though.

I’ve hitchhiked from Finland to China and onwards to India.
And then of course shorter trips, such as many trips between Finland and Spain. Etc.
Absolutely the best way to travel anywhere!

Absolutely the best way to travel! There’s a community for hitchhikers in the Forumverse, BTW: !hitchhiking@anarchist.nexus .

That would mean that China is not sovereign 🤔

No? Why would it be?

We were talking about sovereignty here, not freedom.

So, in your own country you don’t have a government that decides about what happens in your country?

Okay… And what have they told the people as a reason for Japan being dangerous? “The leadership of China is butthurt, therefore Japan is dangerous” is not the most logical sentence one can utter.
