How is this on a .ru domain?

For me it got fixed in 1.20.0 from May 8, 2024.

Fruit of the poisoned tree. Disney's "until author's death + 70 years" copyrights are BS, would be nice if nVidia and all the AI companies were to argue to change that.

2010 was already tainted by the iPhone walled garden.

Windows users call that "installing"... 😈

When was that?

The official F-Droid app had an issue with not deleting downloads on systems that didn't run it correctly in the background. That has been fixed some months ago.

Wait, what's that with "oriental" and "Asian"?

There is an "Oriental market" shop where I live, close to the "Asian shop" and the "Chinese restaurant" in front of the other one with actually Chinese dishes (with a Sichuan native cook).

$2000/year per person, would be $167/year per person. It's not $0, but sounds like a reasonable amount for anyone except the most marginalized groups

Medical procedures are indeed a problem, but my understanding is their price is artificially inflated due to intermediaries, so taking a harder approach to that, would partially solve the issue, and pave the way for further regulation.

M4A should be the goal, something most 1st World countries have already, but I also understand it would mean upending a lot of industries and their interrelationship in the US, so a step-by-step approach seems like a wise one.

I get that, I'm just trying to understand the difference between /them and /it in that example. I feel like "them" is more generic than "it", so I feel like "them" would be a better fit in a space where it's nobody's business, the same as in a professional setting.

Am I mistaken or missing something?

+1 to that comment format.

It works not just for fascists, but also for flerfers, religious zealots, and in general anyone not willing to engage in a rational discussion.

Moral of the story:

  1. Don't travel to Russia
  2. If you have to travel to the US, Russia, China, or any of a number of other countries that will happily invade your privacy at the border, leave your phone behind and carry a burner phone

It sounds to me like limiting spending, and reigning in those predatory intermediaries, would reduce that medical debt in the first place. Or am I missing something?
