Did Putin respect Trump? I'm skeptical of that. I do think Putin was happy to let the US self-isolate under Trump, whereas Biden operates more in terms of international alliances. Putin and Russia in general are more fearful of the latter.

Maybe we need multiple lenses combined with AI to correct for perspective?

It was fine to play three years ago. The expanded White March content vastly improved the game, although the final chapter was still not as good as the rest IMO. The only thing lacking was the character build system of PoE2.

Sadly, that is the response you normally get for Window systems. With higher end servers you get, "have you tried stopping and restarting the daemon"?

Wouldn't it be interesting to flip that 180 and let the teachers monitor how parents treat their kids?

How long you can wear your N95, according to experts

I wonder if anybody here has tried an anti-fog spray for their glasses?

I need to visit the DMV (🚗) and I'm a bit concerned about having to spend an hour or more waiting in a room full of people while the Omicron variant is raging. To tackle that I just ordered my first pack of N95 disposable masks. Turns out they're pretty pricey; more than $1 per mask. I'm wondering how the government is expecting low income families to afford those? Seems like they're going to end up getting re-used a lot.

Statistics can be manipulated. Do you have a source for this?

Yep, you get guaranteed health care while you're starving to death. Lucky you. 😛

Not quite. It was already covered by the news article, which I conveniently supplied. Enjoy your read.

It can make it worse, but it's not the root cause.

UN to provide food to Venezuela children amid crisis Food shortages in a socialist government-managed economy? Hmm, where have I heard that before... oh yes, in virtually every other socialist government-managed economy we've seen in the last century. This failure is as predictable as the Sun rising in the east.
