> Hell, when my kids were young, they weren't even allowed to be outside on the same side of the house that I was mowing.

Why let them outside at all? An eagle could snatch them or something, you never know

It's more reasonable to say that the russian people tolerate the war as long as it does not impact their economic situation over a certain tolerance threshold. Almost all of the fighters from the Russian side are on paid voluntary contracts for a reason.

Well, you yiyrself did not provide any sources for asserting the argument that some of what is on Wikipedia is false

Damn, this only validates the use of ad-blockers / sponsor-blockers even more

> alternative keyboards in iOS feel second class in some ways

From my experience the opposite is true. The iOS keyboard feels unintuitive and buggy whilst most alternatives just work.

Though not an equivalent, the US has extradition treaties and various international agreements for surrendering a fugitive to a foreign country

You generally can't really pet a wild brown bear, since they are not interested in humans and would avoid you. You can't run away from it either, since it can outrun you easily

The US military would be the defending force, though, which would put The People at a disadvantage. Pushing through the defenses of a multi-trillion dollar military with AR-15s seems unlikely. I don't even think that China's armed forces could defeat the US military, let alone civilians armed with AR-15s

All being said, I am no military guru and I could be wrong

What are the odds of winning against a tyrannical government that has UAVs, nukes, tanks, helicopters and jets?

> "Sir, those are just internet memes I've been sharing with a friend of mine"

Then it is reasonable to assume that you can just show us these internet memes?

When it comes to providing direct links to PDFs of scientific papers, you can often run into paywall issues. Court decisions / rulings on the other hand do not belong to any publishers, so it's a different story

A lot of US citizens have been imprisoned for their political ideas, though [1].

Luckily not a single US citizen was ever executed by the US government

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't it around 800 lines[1]?

It is in fact extremely limiting, since you must have a Macintosh to create a iOS app, meanwhile you can create Android apps on Windows / Macintosh / Linux
