Pls let’s discuss this topic after they make their minds ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I get your point for Samsung, but % do not add up.

Thanks! It should be “Some Spanish people I know…” Sorry if I overexaggerated. It’s just that over my life in student dorms, multiple unrelated Spanish people would be in the common kitchen when I was going to sleep (maybe still chatting after dinner), and they would be there when I woke up. This was blowing my mind.

I think when you use the word “siesta” in English (and many other languages), it becomes more specific than “nap”. Like, if I take a nap at 8PM to go out and party later, I would not call it a nap. Similarly, when I was a kid I was napping while parents drove me to school - that I wouldn’t call siesta either.

Maybe first put a carbon tax on fuels used in aviation? LOL

Petrol is reasonable, depending on how it is rolled out. The heating should be fixed by the state and the EU, not taxed. Like heating networks and heat pumps.

The last point does not hold. Spanish people I know eat dinner at 11 PM and breakfast at 7 AM. And they live outside of Spain, the timezone issue does not apply here. Idk when they sleep (Siesta? Siesta in Sweden/Germany?) Please explain.

Only recently, I watched The Wind Rises and I loved it. I do not know what it is. It still has the sensitivity and the aesthetics of Ghibli under Miyazaki, which I genuinely love, but at the same time shows a confusing and unobvious real-life story, and very real dilemmas.

显然，DeepL 也有简体中文。它为我自动选择了简体中文。这样看起来更好吗？

I don’t get it, why you have a line of crisps next to the sandwich? And why would you have cold food with cola?

WTF are boneless wings?

You can check https://slrpnk.net/ and the communities hosted there.

In general, it has a broader environmentalist and anarchist vibe. It has many communities focused on outdoors, nature, gardening, DIY, etc.

I mean, yes, inaccuracy is another issue here. But I assume “the most numerous” means better than average, or at lest not the worst in its category (unless you actually standardize for the time since divergence, then there are probably some niche microbial taxa, some rare extremophiles, that are actually less numerous; still, surely worse than average).

Okay, that makes a lot of sense. I didn’t know about Cloudflare, thank you!

Bro, animals among the most numerous creatures? Bacteria, Archaea, and viruses are surely more numerous. I bet the same applies to fungi and plants. Oh, and protists, since they are unicellular and have twice the total biomass of animals.

In terms of biomass, animals are barely significant. And they are relatively big. So they surely are less numerous than other groups.

Well, yeah, I guess they remove smoke detectors from their houses, as they could create smoke anxiety when a fire breaks out ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Lol Tesla Cybertruck XDDD

Yes, the majority of the population. Everybody wanted to go to the USSR and the Eastern Bloc in general. That is why they built the Berlin Wall and heavily guarded all the borders with Western Europe. To stop all the migrants ;) (I prefer to trust people living at that time than the nostalgia.)

I agree that it is worse in Russia now than it was in the post-Stalin Soviet era, though.

Well, I’ve also grown up in the former Eastern Bloc. So 1:1. Maybe you were part of the privileged group profiting from the Soviet imperialism? ;)

Also: Do you deny the Gulag, the oppression of all opposition, including any forms of self-organization, the Holodomor genocide, and the ethnic cleansing, e.g., of the Crimean Tatars?

Yeah, the “secret protocols dividing Eastern Europe” are a tiny, tiny detail. The UK and France decided to declare war on Germany because it was attacking independent countries. The USSR decided to join Germany in the war efforts, as long as they could. They also made programs of ethnic cleansing, mass incarceration and mass murder parallel to the Nazi ones. (They themselves admitted they were basically the same thing, claiming for years that the Katyn massacre was done by the Germans and not the Soviets). The power in the Soviet Union was concentrated in the hands of a very few people at the highest ranks of the Communist Party. Any independent self-organization, including independent workers’ unions, was forbidden. Explain to me: What was so wonderful in all of that?

Okay. Even if this is correct, then we have: If the UK and the US had not stood up to Hitler, we would have a Stalinist regime spreading across all, not half of the continent. Nice.

Also, a reminder: The Soviets first collaborated with Hitler, attacking Poland together in 1939. They intensified rather than stopped the colonial practices of the Russian Empire.
