… why would a server at a bar need to know about tea? is it part of required knowledge for her workplace? no, its a BAR. you know about black or green tea, probably because it was a common drink with family and/or friends. if somebody else was raised in a different, tea-free family, and without tea-guzzling friends, at what point would they have been like “woah, i have to look into this whole tea thing” before working at the bar (where tea definitely isnt part of the training).
lets be honest, the reason you know about tea and she doesnt has nothing to do with intellectual curiosity. so take that high horse behind the barn and shoot it in the head, you wont need it anymore.
yes, for the most part. unless im REALLY interested in a game, i generally wait till i find it on 50%+ sale. the last game i bought on full price was hi-fi rush, and the last one before that would have been dmc5, if the rx580 i bought at the time didnt already have a code included
1 instance (can you guess which one?)
around 100-150 communities (mostly because they are in a language i dont speak)
and like, 5-6 users. a couple bots, and a couple far-right cringebros. used to have a whole lot more, but i recently unblocked everyone and am now less agressive with the block button
what is it with people using asklemmy for anything but an actual open question recently?

my issue with the artcle isnt that its poiting out the possibility of the ukraine losing (which is very real), but the suggestion of a “post-war ukraine”, that might be able to better defend against russia.
to putin, winning this war doesnt just mean taking over some land, but the entirety of ukraine. if russia wins, best case szenario is they kick out and murder/ imprison the old government, and replace it with a puppet-regime, worst case they get rid of ukraine as a nation, absorb it into russia and annihilate anything ukrainian left (language, culture, ressentiments, opposition) by way of ethnic clensing.
if russia wins, there wont be a ukraine anymore.
