There is nothing traditional in these "traditional values", it's the same image of great past they attempt to sell to those who are younger and the unsuspecting westerners.
The number of abortions (and miscarriages) per woman have been much higher in the USSR, it was just most often performed out of clinic, and they will likely revive this particular "tradition" by making more civilised means of birth control less available.

А я не поехал, я купил мотыля и пошёл на реку^W^W^W^W^W водку и изготовил фрикадельку с майонезом из себя — но нормально не было 😢

Take them to Russia for a quick tour of "traditional values". We are already seeing a taxi ride price hike due to sharp decline in number of drivers, thanks to recent "counter-terrorist" measures. Uber is against our tradition — walk on foot, or get a Chinese car instead!
Somehow it didn't solve the demographic crisis, neither did reducing the availability of abortions and oral contraception. I wonder, maybe the war and declining economy have more to do with it, hm-m-m? 🤔

My pun wasn't this elaborate, I was just making fun of people who downplay depression as "having sad thoughts".
As far as I understood the article, this finding might not be about fixing it, more about diagnosing it early, which might help prevent it in people susceptible, before they slide into the state recovering from which becomes a lengthy process.

One of the earliest rounds of sanctions must've included terminating the EU membership… Damn, I didn't know that 🤣

Hey, when I'm feeling depressed, I just stop having sad thoughts (and reduce the part of brain network responsible for this), why can't you? 😬

Swatch has this Touch line — they look really cool for plastic watches. They come in lots of different colours and I have several of them! 🤩
I think they've made a newer edition, those are bigger and have "sports" features — those don't look as cool IMO.
But I'm also a Casio DW5600 enjoyer, so maybe that's not your thing 😅

Imagine Razer pitching their products to the top management of software development companies, claiming their code monkeys would be able to produce more lines of code. And all that without being evidently ironic.
That would be insanely funny 🤣

@kirby @asa
Congratulations you now hold the competitive advantage — you can now crank out patches for Blemora at an astounding rate! 😂

Both my Deathadder Chroma and Deathadder Elite started having scroll wheel, or rather third mouse button issues, in just a couple of years — so I can attest, it's not about $20.
My Deathadder 3.5G still works — they obviously have quality control issues with their newer stuff 😩

Oh, isn't it that keyboard that was using optical switches, is it any good? 🤔

@susie
Why go into all the trouble to install an update no one really wants? 🤔
To my knowledge, there isn't a single thing that runs on Windows 11, but isn't compatible with Windows 10. Or am I wrong about that?
I suspect that latest release of Visual Studio might be like that, but not some software that a lot of people might want.

@zaitcev
It got adopted because of licensing issues. Also, if by crushing you indeed mean getting wider adoption, all of them got "crushed" by Windows 95 in the nineties — it must be technically superior, we should definitely all switch to that!
Nice way of thinking, good luck with it 😜

The foster kittens are getting a health check today and will probably "graduate" into being spayed/neutered and put up for adoption.

We started with 7, lost 2 to parvo, were told the other 5 had little chance.

All 5 are now happy healthy and bouncing off the walls!

I will miss the hell out of the little buggers but I think they have been given a good start and will make their adopters very very happy!

…но где-то там, по ту сторону занавеса, может быть интересный человек, который — так исторически сложилось, завёл учётную запись на том сервере, обжился, и не хочет постоянно переезжать — и пообщаться друг с другом не сможете вы, а не два админа-дурака 🤷
