A few corrections for my comtards;

I don't remember any fruit trees in my Хрущёвка growing up.

Alao, you could request a bigger apartment, but as my grandma was fond of saying, 'you can write 'cock' on a fence, it would still be wood' (something may have been lost in translation). The majority of families were living 3-4 generations in a one bedroom apartment with an indefinite wait to upgrade.

You sad fucks living 3-8 roomates deep with no cars and no money left over between bills are already living the communist experience, leave the rest of us out of it.

It's not that fantastical, it's resembles a small town and has aboveground buildings as well. The underground dwellings are mostly rented to tourists nowadays.

Few things I remember from there around ~10 years ago:

Coober Pedy literally means 'White Man's Warrens' in Aborogeni.

You have yo register your ID to buy alcohol and are limited to 2 beers/1 spirit per day because the aborogenies keep getting tourists to buy them hooch.

The 1st part pf the Vin Disel Riddick Epic 'Pitch Black' was filmed there and the full size spaceship prop is still in place.

Well, there's sucking at handling credit cards at 11% interest, and there's sucking at handling credit cards at 28% interest.

Not that I feel bad about it because I reached adulthood and learned my lesson with the 2007 recession, but young people are experiencing the double whammy of being the 'number go up' generation, with their parents and education completely failing to prepare them for number go down.

Now the only numbers that go up are cost of living and interest rates.

This is a highly misleading headline, my disappointment is immeasurable, and my day is ruined.

The patient had a genetic condition AND a structural defect in her liver that caused complications. The structural defect was fixed through surfery. The genetic condition wasn't cured and this treatment is of very little utility to other patients that suffer from the genetic condition but not the structural defects in their lymphatic system.

One of the 'tells' of mental illness in airplane passenger stories is business class. People experiencing manic episodes tend to take luxury options regardless of means.

It really sucks, and I'm sure red flags were present in the terminal if anyone paid attention.

On the plus side, she was probably hospitalized after the emergency landing, she may not be liable.

For just about all former soviet states, the N word is the term used to describe black people, because the word imported from Europe to describe Africans. It doesn't have the connotations or baggage that westerners attach to it. Diddo for blackface and sambo imagery, it's usually used more out of ignorance than malice.

Anyone volunteering to beak barriers in that part of the world has their work cut out for them.

I'm very much reading someone with a very narrow world view lecturing me without making any real effort to understand what im saying.

You're imposing your morals and values as well as any colonizer or ethnocentrist I've ever known!

Oh well, it'll suck for me, but at least the poors won't be armed.

Im feeling similar vibes to when that bipolar van life influencer girl got killed by her boyfriend, who was later found dead.

Not much info on the ladies husband but it sounds like a manic couple off their meds situation.

I've worked an ER servicing a major airport for years, I've seen tons of people like this lady come through. The vast majority of berzerk passenger syoroes involve first or business class passengers. That statement comes feom experience. 'Maybe's are like assholes, everyone has them.

No it doesn't. As a long time gamer, the games media hasn't been relevant since the early 2000s.

Players can find one or two streamers or youtube personalities in aligmnent with their taste in games and get pretty good recommendations along with 10-30 minutes pf gameplay footage to decide of a game is worth trying.

Do I need some absolute nobody working sub-poverty wages at Giant Nutaku telling me what they think of a game? The problem with sub-poverty writers is that they're reliant on game publisher advertising revenue, they will always take the industries side over that of gamers.

This just in, studies using modern day neologisms are likely to find more evidence of modern day neologisms.

Lab grown meat, as it is right now has a massive scalability problem which makes it impossible to produce it in industrial quantities

That said, the fact that this was signed into law means that there were multiple people in business and politics that decided to dedicate their time towards legislating a complete non issue. great Job!

The GameStop problem is that the corporation has a trade in quota for each store. Even if the employee knows that someone is trying to trade in a repro they're encouraged to buy it to meet the quota. That shit gets sent to a centralized warehouse anyway.

GS as is will be an absolute shitshow of chinese knockoffs

All of them? The vast majority of SovCits become SovCits because of crippling debt accrued prior to tp becoming SovCits. Its easier than not falling into debt in the forst place.

I would fucking kill for N64 era 3D Pokemon. Have you seen Pokemon Colosseum animations? The developers repurposed N64 Pokemon Stadium models and animations because they were that good. If those inept fucks at Gamefreak used N64 quality graphics the switch era wouldn't be considered Pokemon's dark age.
