Stromae is an interesting phenomenon in Russia. Since most people don’t understand French well, he’s perceived as happy-sounding, and his songs as upbeat.

Something similar happens here with Hotel California and The Road to Hell, which are still played at many countryside weddings.

I’ve always wanted to visit Japan as it was from the 1980s up to 1998. Modern Japan doesn’t hold any interest for me anymore.
Presents for myself 😄

Даже сейчас люди продолжают верить в мудрого царя и уж что, условно, Путин ну никак не может планировать развала России.
Москва проделывала это в который раз, но каждый раз — как в первый. Есть такая традиция — наёбывать жителей колоний.
It feels as though there isn’t — and never could be — a single person in the world who would say, “I love Marseille”. Not because Marseille is bad, but because, in the lives of its people, the city itself simply doesn’t exist. Their thoughts drift anywhere but toward the common good of those who live there. “I love the sea, I love soap, I love the unemployment benefits” — that’s what you might hear from a Marseillais. But no one ever says, “I love Marseille”, and the city returns that indifference in kind.
I’ve always hated port cities, yet somehow it seems to me that Marseille is the very essence of everything I despise about them. If I ever lived there, I would be the most wretched man on earth.

> Sapone da Barba 100% vegetale, SENZA OLIO DI PALMA. Per la saponificazione utilizziamo solo oli vegetali di GRADO ALIMENTARE, di cui il 50% olio di COCCO. Una sapone di altissima qualità, dalle proprietà schiumogene ed umettanti, uniche. Questo è il nostro contributo a tutela delle foreste, la cui causa principale della deforestazione, è il consumo dell’olio di palma.
They’re rejecting palm oil in favor of coconut oil because palm oil producers are cutting down forests. But if the demand for palm oil drops, forests will still be cut down to produce coconut oil. Looks like the European colonizers are planning to stir up the market again.
We need this thing on Nostr! Right now!

The greatest leader in U.S. history has ended yet another conflict. Glory to Trump!
I hadn’t cleaned my keyboard in ten years and finally decided it was time to do it. Ended up digging out a ton of dirt — and at the same time found out that the company behind this keyboard, proudly labeled "designed and customized in USA", has gone out of business. I used to hope that after the war with Ukraine, I’d get another chance to order one of their keyboards to Russia, but now that’s clearly never going to happen.
Looks like someone had a few too many cups of sake before dropping the new Bitchat release — the strfry logs are flooded with bad reqs.
> Dead or Alive creator, Team Ninja founder and Ninja Gaiden director Tomonobu Itakagi has passed away
I don’t know all the details, but judging by how this guy looks and acts, I wouldn’t be surprised if booze and drugs had something to do with what happened.

Я не очень понимаю, почему в рекламном продвижении Max они акцентируют внимание на некоем качестве соединения. Будто бы у них свои какие-то особые протоколы и, чего уж там, кодеки.
Ну, то есть откуда вообще может взяться то самое «ловит и здесь, и тут, и там»? Что-то такое, что Speex отдыхает, должно быть, и не WebRTC как в школьном проекте, но нет — там всё очень стандартно. Я даже не хочу сказать, что это неправильно, в принципе это обычно, но просто с рекламой не бьётся, а даже прямо противоречит ей.
Palestine will probably become the first state to exist only in Mark Zuckerberg’s metaverse.
