Barely, going to be 17°C again this week.

And you keep on rehabilitating genocidal maniacs 👍

Notice the weight-bearing words “at first” in your own cited research? Etymology is not a valid argument when the definition of a term drastically changes, in this case becoming much broader. My point is, most “kulaks” deported by Stalin from the Baltics were new landowners with not a lot of land and at most a few paid workers. At least in the case of Latvia, these workers were commonly seasonal labourers from Poland (that came here willingly).

Showing a paragraph with a nasty description does not really prove anything, I could find you endless paragraphs that say nasty things about communists.

Here’s some other research:

Available here, page 126

Do you fathom, how little land 5ha actually is for farming? Especially considering, that even the Western Soviet Union is generally not densely populated.

Some 72% of deportees were women and children under the age of 16.

Ah yes, getting skinned alive so hard by women and children.

During the first five-year plan, Joseph Stalin’s all-out campaign to take land ownership and organisation away from the peasantry meant that, according to historian Robert Conquest, “peasants with a couple of cows or five or six acres [~2 ha] more than their neighbors” were labeled kulaks.

So owning marginally more than your neighbours. Wow, what a horrible crime.

Maybe you should do some reading too.

There were no serfs in the 20th century: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abolition_of_serfdom_in_Livonia

And the people considered kulaks by Stalin were often the same peasants, who got pieces of land taken from the actual nobility in the interwar land reform: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latvian_Land_Reform_of_1920

Dude, all you needed to be defined a “kulak” was to own your own homestead, they worked on their farms themselves. Serfdom had been over for more than a hundred years at that point.

Ah yes, the suffering of my (great)grandparents is surely imaginary.

Oh that is not just some person, that’s the CTO of "Open"AI when asked, if YT videos were used to train Sora.

The cables can also be an issue though.

Yeah, for this the only real argument is performance, I was answering in general.

Both. Primarily most software written in C should be rewritten to a memory safe language, be it Rust or some other alternative. Because there is a lot of software written in C, this is a veeeeery long term goal, and will probably never be achieved 100%, but at least Microsoft seems to be on board with this.

I mean, it could still have been responsible for popularising it.

It does, and so does FairEmail.

Both Thunderbird and FairEmail work with outlook OAuth for me.

I guess it’s for tweeting a lot.

You overestimate most people. “KDE is bad. Admittedly last time I tried it was 15 years ago” is a real quote that I read.

While Linus’ handling of the situation is terrible, I agree there is nothing this waterblock could do to change that conclusion for the price that it costs, so the drama around that does seem silly to me.

Sure, for some produce that is true, I am aware. But tomatoes? At least where I’m from they are either local or come from other EU countries (Spain, The Netherlands usually).
