This is what I did. They're basically indestructible and once I learned how they worked, I haven't needed anything else. They also seem to be easier to clean than the old nonstick pans. Oh, and they give you a little extra iron in your food.

This is how I feel about the banana duck taped to the wall.
We should ask it what the fox says.
You can see this process at work right now in Moldova or Georgia. And of course, the Crimean operation was such a success, with such a feeble response from the west, that Putin just decided to take the whole country.
Which pretty much justifies Russia's assumption that NATO is not really a "defensive alliance" and an independent Ukraine joining NATO really is a serious threat to their security. Along with this:
Utter nonsense. When the Soviet Union broke up, the west gave Russia a complete do-over, wiping the slate clean, with an invitation to join the community of nations as a full partner. But they went with corrupt oligarchs and decided to appoint a new Czar for life, who then apparently decided he wanted their old territories back. No one wanted Russia as an enemy, until they started down the path of rebuilding their old Russian empire again by violent means.
They had a chance at redemption, and they decided to throw away their future on an old man's dream of reforming a long-dead empire. NATO is a absolutely a defensive alliance, however much Russian shills want to deny it. There is zero danger to Russia from NATO member states, and they damn well know it too, or their wouldn't have stripped their defenses along their borders to toss still more troops into the fires of the Ukraine war.
All Russia has done recently is to convince the world that they will never change their imperialistic spots. They're still stuck in an 18th century mindset of believing they deserve their old empire back - that "Russia has no borders."

Then just use an internal CA that signs the certs for as long as you want? Why even get a public CA cert for that, if you control everyone talking to it?
This is completely true, we have a lot of people now saying the first amendment needs modifications so they can censor people they think are wrong, including Hillary Clinton who said "we lose total control" if they don't do this. Problem is a lot of people only ever supported the first amendment because it was helpful to them at the time.

They're up on the AlexandreFiles along with English translations if you want to read them. I linked to an archive so that people censored can read them, but the originals are at https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fx.com%2FAlexandreFiles though I note that X seems to require login to see anything.
> But Brazil has also criminalized reading X. If a Brazilian citizen is caught accessing X, they can be arrested or fined $9k per day, about half the median household income.
It's twice the minimum wage, per day, at R$50,000, which is a little under $9k USD. That said, they've at least backed off the fines for individuals.
The part that's really crazy is the original order was a secret order giving X just two hours to remove a list of accounts that includes a sitting Brazilian senator. So they were going to censor and make X take the blame for the STF's censorship.
That really doesn't sit well with me.
I don't believe this is what they're really worried about, because they could just go after Mastodon if they really were worried primarily about CSAM.
This is "won't someone think of the children" used to go after platforms saying stuff they want to censor.

The results appear to be pretty bogus. You might want to read here as it's pretty questionable why there should be huge results... only in male babies, but not female? Not to mention all the finagling that looks like p-hacking.
Nobody's gonna believe that computers are intelligent until they start coming in late and lying about it.
