axiosgunnar··on Namecheap: Russia Service Termination
I despise communism as much as everyone, but at least China is (currently) not trying to violently expand its borders (a bit of posturing in the South China Sea is nothing compared to what is going on in Ukraine) and especially... it is not threatening to nuke everyone.

Got links to those screenshots?
axiosgunnar··on Practical guide to solving hard problems
This seems useful for "i want to implement 2fa in a language i don't really know", but not so much for "i want to solve P/NP"
axiosgunnar··on UK fast-tracks law to tackle Russian 'dirty money'
> your country's elected leadership

Are you insinuating Putin is a legitimate president because he holds „elections“ for show every couple of years?

If him literally invading another country is not enough to make you abandon him, what is?

axiosgunnar··on Indians in Ukraine recount ordeal on the border, not allowed to leave, beaten up
> The Ukrainian representative to the UN actually threatened the safety of Indian students in a sneaky manner when India abstained during the UNSC vote.

What a load of bullshit.

Russians are literally bombing residential districts, this is what he was obviously refering to when he asked India to vote against the invasion.

axiosgunnar··on Russia-Ukraine Warning Update: Russian Offensive Campaign Assessment February 27
> Today I saw a ton of russian propaganda that didn't even make any sense.

I‘m curious, like what for example?

axiosgunnar··on Ukraine launches site to help families of captured and killed Russian soldiers
Yes, you're right
axiosgunnar··on Russia gives Ukraine deadline for decision on talks in Belarus
> The Russians assassinated the Chechen leader on his way to peace talks 26 years ago.

Interesting, do you have a link?

axiosgunnar··on Ukraine launches site to help families of captured and killed Russian soldiers
Guys, this is literally a pro-Russian propaganda troll with an account created less than an hour ago with random letters as its name. Dang?
axiosgunnar··on Gas Embargo Would Hit Russia Hardest
> It'd also hit Europe very hard.

If I lived in Europe I wouldn't care.

No matter the cost (taxes etc.), no matter if I would have to wear multiple jackets at home.

I would still be in favor.

axiosgunnar··on Anonymous claim to hack Russian TV Channels
Impressive if true.

So much for the „omg taking down a website is like ripping down a poster“ mockery here on Hackernews just a few hours ago.

axiosgunnar··on Ghost of Kyiv Ukraine Video Is a Fake Made Using Digital Combat Simulator Game
Obviously the alledged Ghost of Kyiv footage was an urban legend, but Ukraine did down multiple Russian fighter jets.

Incredible, really.

Also, note that the account of the poster consists of random characters and was created just and hour ago.

Who‘s information warfare is this?

axiosgunnar··on Ask HN: How do I pay our Russian devs?
You don't.
axiosgunnar··on We're choosing Rust, and not Go, C++, or Node.js
They have one short sentence plonked in there saying "Java was not considered". They didn't give a reason why. They didn't mention .net anywhere.
axiosgunnar··on We're choosing Rust, and not Go, C++, or Node.js
Why wasn't Java considered?

Sure, let me fix that typo in your readme. Thanks for the perpetual commercial use license!

axiosgunnar··on Vanced: YouTube adblocker for Android
A move or a game is a piece of art. A newsarticle can have objectively incorrect information, which makes it like a TV with broken pixels.
axiosgunnar··on Car stolen with homemade GPS tracker in backseat
What is WTF about the story?
axiosgunnar··on Car stolen with homemade GPS tracker in backseat
Does anybody believe the story in this advertorial actually happened?

I mean they didn‘t even mention the car make.

> The implied arrangement is that you watch the ads (at least the first five seconds until the skip button appears) in exchange for them doing all the work of collecting, hosting, and delivering that content to you.

What if the delivered content is subpar?

I have watched ads (ie paid with my attention).

How do I get my money back?

axiosgunnar··on Executive order prohibiting certain transactions re: Russian activity in Ukraine
> 1 - Why some people might claim Russia is part of Ukraine:

All the arguments you presented would also support the claim that it's actually Russia that is part of Ukraine.

Interesting, thanks!
axiosgunnar··on Things that used to be hard and are now easy
I understand you manually manage the kernel and wrote your own TCP library? I sure hope you didn‘t just pass all of that complexity down!

What is your story?
axiosgunnar··on Facebook accused of letting activists incite ethnic massacres in Ethiopia
> Uyghurs, Palestine, or any media spectacle du jour.

The Uygurs are completely swept under the rug as well, because speaking up might impact cheap gadget imports.

Or where have you seen a Western company or news outlets publicly mentioning the Uyghur genocide?

I believe Intel made the mistake, and promptly apologized and vowed to never do it again.

axiosgunnar··on Imprisoned for Your Safety
Yup, just as expected - four paragraphs accusing me of not being orthodox enough, finishing up with calling me a heretic.

Look up how black people go camping less, how they are better at sprinting than other races, etc.

Do you think a certain race simply not biking that much is so dangerous of a thought, it should be illegal to even think about it and should result in one being called epithets, as you just did?

Ridiculous.
