My inner voice of Nostalgia just whispered: All the gorgeous pixels gone with the wind.

That's quite a misrepresentation of his statements. "I'm Finnish. Did you think I'd be supporting Russian aggression..." is certainly not about grievance. As a matter of fact, the russian aggression is real and not about finish historical grievances.

Open source is fostering collaborative environments, while russia as a state is destroying them deliberately. How does that fit together?

There has never been an "unprovoked aggression against Yugoslavia". More than 130K people were killed and 4 million displaced (mainly by Serb troops) and people begged for an intervention, which came to late (think about Sarajevo, Srebrenica).

It doesn't fit your narrative.

Did you just realized that Torvald is not racist or anti-russian at all? He didn't block any russian maintainers until today (more than 2 years after russia turning genocidal imperial again).

I just put your "demonizing people because of their home nation" into perspective, dude. Staying in russia as a kernel maintainer and playing the political ignorant is just lost.

You missed the point, he didn't mention history in general, but specifically "Finnish history". In this respect it's not about British colonialism but more about about Russian imperialism / Stalinism (see Russo-Finnish war 1939).

Nearly 1 million Russians left Russia because they didn't want to end as ghouls in an imperial war, that's demonizing AND killing people because of their home nation.

And even when intentionally doing nothing, there is some obscure desire to measure how much nothing we are actually doing. Hence the idle counter.

There is some irony hidden in the remark that his wife sent him the inspiring quote from Ralph Waldo Emerson, that compares books to meals having eaten.

Would like to add the colloquial expression for writing bad code and in general writing something without due diligence: "hinrotzen"

After reading this, Snowpiercer doesn't feel that awkward anymore.

I'm not sure how to define a Russian win? Taking Kyiv? Regime change?

RIP. After all the attacks and humiliation going back and opposing the evil lord is testimony for having skin in the game (BTW, Snowden still in Moscow?).

"Mama Cozzi's Pizza Kitchen 12" Veggie Cauliflower Crust Deli Pizza" Pizza with Cauliflower? WTF or just an Easter egg?

Which brings me to the idea, that mandatory handwriting could a more efficient indoctrination tool than typewriting.

In terms of Murphy: "If there is a wrong way to do something, then someone will do it."
