As a European, the whole registering to vote thing is honestly one of the wildest parts of the US elections to me. It’s so unnecessary complicated and prone to errors/manipulation. I just have to show up with my ID, doesn’t matter if it’s for the EU parliament or the local city senate.

One of the nice things about Lemmy is that you actually get replies under your posts/comments and it’s not just repeating phrases to earn as much karma as possible. There’s always a sweet spot of engagement in online communities and I feel like we’re pretty close to where it begins. Other sites just make you feel like you’re shouting into the void.

That’s not the place that Navalny’s team published the photos of. This one was more like a dacha. His Palace is even closer to Ukraine, but way too expensive to be demolished like that. He has been there only a few times since it was built.

Probably to prevent the bad optics of Ukraine blowing it up with their new long range drones. His residence was about 600km away from the frontline, well within reach.

Social compensation benefits for war victims

War victims are entitled to social compensation benefits if their health was affected by events in connection with one of the two world wars.

The number of war victims and their surviving dependants is declining sharply due to demographic factors. However, there may still be people in the future who suffer from the effects of the world wars. This may be the case, for example, with mines, grenades or bombs that have not yet been discovered or rendered harmless - so-called unexploded ordnance. People who suffer damage to their health as a result of unexploded ordnance are entitled to social compensation benefits.

I couldn’t really find much else about the way it’s handled locally, it’s thankfully not really a common thing. I first heard about it in some TV documentary.

Interesting to see that China is ranking fairly low on the index and Vietnam so high. Really didn’t expect that.

But hey, we might get a decent CoD or Battlefield game out of it in a couple of years.

Not sure how it’s handled in Japan but I know this is how it works in Germany and France, for both WW1 and WW2.

There is a difference between conservatism and being a threat to the democratic order. Germany has conservative parties that are perfectly valid, it’s just that the AfD is not one of them.

They are heavily biased towards China and Russia, two countries with fascist governments. That kinda speaks for itself, even if they claim to be communists or socialists.

Your files are not lost. You will be able to access them with your local root user, either through the command line or a GUI file explorer that supports actions as root.

They are just flexing on the Russians after their silo blew up.

I’m pretty tall, so the logical choice would be Tom Cruise on 12 inch heels.

They would’ve been even more incompetent than usual to not expect some kind of border incursion. The FRL probing their defenses every couple of weeks should’ve been indication enough that it was a possibility. Still, it’s pretty baffling that they were unprepared enough to lose such a large area that they could’ve fortified for over two years.

These are only the ones that could be verified through orbituaries and funerals. Considering the huge amount of soldiers that never make it back to be buried, this is only a small fraction of overall deaths. The number also does not include mercenaries.

Fair enough

These guys were still carrying these pagers to the funeral of the last group getting killed by their pagers? 200 IQ move.

If by “creative” you mean absurd, then yes.
