CloudFlare, eat shit and die.
Apart from that - the idea of the project is just pure fire, I would love very much to have thousands of different personas for the nasty tracking huge corporations that entangled the internet.
We are now just entering a timeline where chrome nose dives on that comparison chart of "who is better?" with compared to Firefox.
The fact that you don't see the problem immediately makes me also guess if it's just rendering that way only on mobiles or in my browser*os (Cromite on Android) or maybe a result of some resource (js/CSS/woff) getting blocked by the built in adblocker or something.
That's nuts.
The web is developing in the wrong way.
No, facts can't contain undefined properties like "free and fair".
Who should decide whether a referendum is free and fair?
No one.
It's basically the question of whether people of that region agree or disagree with the referendum enough as to defend their position with force.
As you can see - Crimeans are quite content they are part of Russia and not in ruins under a nazi regime.
(That's also an opinion, the fact is that there's just no unrest.)
> But if you want the realpolitik answer, it's because the US has a competent military.
If Russia's military is so incompetent - Zelensky is going to win ~ soon, let's wait.
> David won against Goliath, remember? That's the whole point of the parable. At least find a metaphor that supports your argument.
You missed the point: Zelensky sees himself as a David from the metaphor, but reality is that he is a clown, not a leader, not even a politician, but rather a parody to one.
> And in terms of population, economy, and military spending, Europe is a lot bigger than Russia.
Yep. But Russia is at war and Europe is only cuckoldily fighting right now. Let Europe get into full blown war if they want to participate so much.
> You say Ukraine should know their fights, but doesn't that apply more to Russia? They expected the war to be over in 3 days, and it's been 3 years. Putin vastly overestimated the strength of his own army, and underestimated the resistance Ukraine would put up.
They got Ukraine military in the chokehold at the start of the operation, then Zelensky agreed to proceed with diplomacy and Russia pulled its forces back.
But then Ukraine got some spoken assurances from US and EU of receiving money and military help from them. And then Russia had to start liberation from the border again. It goes quite slow for a few reasons: first of all, Russia isn't in a hurry: it gets really valuable first hand experience in modern warfare, the kind that almost none gets (even US hasn't fought a real war (without bombarding the area to the smithereens first) for quite a long time). Another reason is that Russia successfully mobilized its economy for war time. Just in case it has to go into a bigger war now/later, but it needs time to produce more new weaponry. Another reason for going slow is that Russia isn't really fighting a genocidal war, where everyone on the other side is seen as an enemy, they just demilitarize Ukraine, fighting just its soldiers, trying not to harm civilians, and that's not so simple, actually.
