No, I do not think we have demonstrated that ecological progress came at the cost of deindustrialization. We could have done both. We just chose the easy path of relaying on the US.

Same, but to be honest, I still think Ukraine could be in a much better position if it had been provided better equipment by the west (and had not botched the “summer offensive”). Maybe it would have not retaken Crimea, but the front could be somewhere in Donbas instead of at the doors of Dnipro.

Can someone explain the “I did it for charity” angle? I never understood why would someone do a sporty thing, that they clearly wanted to do and would probably do anyway, motivate me or anyone else to donate money to a charity. To be honest it always felt quite performative and self serving to me.

It is relevant that the USSR took a look at what the Nazis were doing and said, “All in brother, let’s split Poland and shake hands in the middle,” and only turned on them once the Nazis broke the alliance from their side

To be fair, the USSR tried to contact the allies for months, but in 1939 they were not interested.

Lucky you. My laptop has a small HD, and all that space is a problem.

Nope, I was counting all dependencies, both for flatpak and apk installations.

On the other hand each flatpak uses >1Gb of disk where deb packages rarely require more than 100Mb

Physics books are never outdated, you just discover better models that work in a wider range of conditions.
