@infern0o0 @Illoath Remember how it went from “we’ll parade in Kiyv in 3 days” to “we are fighting the whole world” to “eschatological optimism” while the Russian nepokids are sitting it out in Paris and London sipping on expensive champagne.

@Mike94663851870 This guys bike needs to be taken away and donated to someone who deserves to be in public. He should be ticketed heavily.

@Boenau This is an expected and unfortunate outcome of the lifestyle we built.
The FTS published a study relating driving habits and health impacts (basically, drive less live better):

@but_cyclists Dangerous move by the cyclist; no rules can exclude every contingency and situation ==> it is up to us to watch out.
I would slow down, let the car go and then would resume. Err on the side of caution.

[ChicagoAppStudio @ChiAppStudio]

@Boenau It depends a lot on the safety constraints embedded in the algorithm; in general, though, I expect autonomous 🚗 to be better than humans and lower congestion on the roads by optimizing routing.

@BrankoMilan Finland was always the West; trading with the USSR because it was good money and the Soviets made crappy everything, from chewing gum to shoes to …

[ChicagoAppStudio @ChiAppStudio]

@QuaeroBooks Fun fact: the USSR invaded Finland in what became known as the Winter War. Finland fought courageously but lost and tried her chances when the Soviets were on the back foot (and lost again).
Don’t twist and turn history - this is not some obscure factoid.

[ChicagoAppStudio @ChiAppStudio]

@Illoath 🇷🇺had her chance to exercise soft power after tbe SU break up; instead, 🇷🇺ns came up with infinite derogatory names for 🇬🇪🇰🇿🇺🇿🇺🇦etc.
I sure hope Ukraine has what it takes to strike Russia deep and bring this unjust war to Russians. Russia offers nothing but death.

[ChicagoAppStudio @ChiAppStudio]

@Illoath What’s Atlanticism got to do with the cold blooded murder of 100,000s of people? This logic is all the more the reason to resist Russia with everything Ukraine has.

[ChicagoAppStudio @ChiAppStudio]

@Illoath And what happens afterwards? Ca 30M enraged Ukrainians living under a brutal occupation - will they not resist? In parts of Ukraine resistance to the SU went on well into the 1950ies (after the WW2).
I hate war but I think Ukraine should have the weapons to hit Russia deep.

@AlTi5 @marcelsel May I jump in? If a person chose a bike, the odds that the person is an idiot drop dramatically.

[ChicagoAppStudio @ChiAppStudio]

@ANILAWHITNEY I have had the luck of moving a lot from one country to another. There is nothing like waking up on the first morning and thinking ‘I am going to build a life here for myself’.. and then the little surprises by your new neighbors, friends, random people.
I hate war.

[ChicagoAppStudio @ChiAppStudio]

@Arteymas_ Go to a place called the Red bridge (between 🇬🇪 🇦🇿 and 🇦🇲) and watch farmers speak 4 languages (+Russian) and some even throw in some English, and do so quite casually. There may be more but I may have missed them.

[ChicagoAppStudio @ChiAppStudio]

@histories_arch Bike to work and save gas and improve your health!

[ChicagoAppStudio @ChiAppStudio]

@RUBICONCROSS2 @ShoahUkraine It was not just Russians. All the nations of the former SU went to that just war, including my grandfather did. It was a war of survival. While it is true, Russians were the heart of the resistance, all peoples contributed their fair share.

[ChicagoAppStudio @ChiAppStudio]

@Iwillbeaproblem @Nostre_damus And what held him back? The heartbreak of murdering kids? Like in Chechnya?

[ChicagoAppStudio @ChiAppStudio]

@klarajayavesela @Kasparov63 He’s a chess player. An 8 x 8 board, solved mathematically, no longer a mystery to a machine. Yes, computationally challenging, but that’s all. Other than that, he talks. He invented the ‘wrong Russians’ - an ugly term. He knows how to malign.

[ChicagoAppStudio @ChiAppStudio]

@Nostre_damus Did Ukraine tell you they are Russia’s backyard?

[ChicagoAppStudio @ChiAppStudio]

@Nostre_damus Why were the gloves on? Did Russia not plan to win the war from the beginning? Not planning on winning the hearts and minds of Ukraine? What was the idea, pray tell?!
