I can't stand listening to his his talk for two minutes when he's on TV, even for a native Russian speaker, his wording is weird to say the least, he also uses KGB gimmicks of not talking about certain things directly a lot and that simply drives me nuts.
I can't believe millions of people got through two hours of it TBH 😵

I still don't get what's wrong with good old 0118 999 881 999 119 725 3 😏

OMG, GoldEd! It's the Fido message reader/editor — not some other software, right? 😲

@voron
And this incompetence in what will finish Russia off eventually — his underlings either tell him exactly what he wants to hear or their words don't reach him — those who could tell him that something is wrong are simply not heard anymore. This didn't start yesterday, but it got much worse and became much more obvious now.

@voron
Doesn't look that way to me — even US conservatives make fun of this interview, not of Putin or Tucker Carlson, or the lies in it — the interview itself, they aren't impressed. Kovalchuk is spot-on here — this isn't what the right wing crowd in the US has been expecting to hear.
But that's the beauty of it — authoritarian incompetence, he doesn't trust a good advice even if it comes from his inner circle, he's wallowing in his own paranoia at this point.

A rough equalient of being brought from the dead as a zombie: you're no longer the person you used to be — you just drag your rotting flesh through the streets hunting for brains 🧟

They probably are going to assemble into a humansize bipedal cat to deal with it 🙀

They just don't have the tools for it… yet. Windows 11 and that Chrome shit that facilitates checking whether you are using official Google-supplied binary are stepping stones to just that.

@Turkleton @wishgranter14
So poasties who do not buy every single Russian bullshit do exist? Wow! 😲

Replaced battery in my G-Shock — I'm surprised how far the dirt gets in, despite waterproofing.
Not sure if they are still water resistant after I reassembled them — I did place the sticker, the rubber seal and the ring correctly of course, but at least the backlight works again 😁

Chesstron Force assemble!

Trump as in politician who doesn't exactly strike you as a keen opponent of Putin's Russia — even him 😅

@PawelK@fosstodon.org
I'm being ironic — I think nearly everyone did. There was this video in circulation in which Trump (Trump of all people!) advises them to wrap this shit up ASAP, but… "Nah, what can possibly go wrong?!" 🤦

@kotik
Literalilly me 🤪

@Illuminatus
I really like these words by Joseph Stiglitz, it's not an exact quote, I do it by memory, and I have only read this book, it's either from The Price of Inequality or from The Great Divide, in translation, but it's something like this: some seem to believe that money spent in the private sector is spent efficiently even if it's spent in the casino — I think it's very spot-on 😂

@samueljohnson
That is why I'm not calling it their sole purpose, but it's still their primary one — by definition. Although there are other types of organization, but those are relatively new concept and I don't think we're talking about them.
I'm also not stating that government is necessarily big and bad, I'm just comparing their bureaucracy and power/influence to that of a state/govt, nor am I even American, but thanks for the book recommendation anyway 😁

@AlSweigart @jasongorman

@samueljohnson
Not surprising, considering they get as bureaucratic and inefficient when they grow this big and their power to influence things in a way that is beneficial only to them and no one else gets very close to that of a state, but their primary goal of making profits remains intact 🤷
