Ok, spent two days trying to figure out why the test is failing when it compares the error string to its copy in the test.

Turns out some stupid asshole had an idea that no one should be comparing error strings, and deliberately generates the error message with either 0x20 (space), or 0xc2 0xa0 (non-breaking space).

What a waste of time looking for concurrency issues. Besides, how does log search work for them? Fishing out only half the messages?
I think too much time is spent on two hyped-up farts.

I see some 50 words has caused more Facebook and YouTube content than the most prolific opposition leader could do in a lifetime. Knights of pen and microphone rose to defend the honour of the damsel whose good name certain blasphemers dare to tarnish. They are ready to fight for the exact meaning of the words that remain unsaid to this day, and compete in their estimates of the profundity of the changes they foresee - no, they already feel. Oh, how they wish they could only be as brave as her! How they would make the regime shake in fear of the popular grunt of discontent!

Meanwhile, hundreds of dead bodies with unambiguous signs of torture did not cause such a stir. There's no controversy here, nothing to discuss - certainly, not the kind of thing that can make the lumpens get their pitchforks and go make the regime tremble.

You know? I can imagine Arestovich and Feygin say something like a one-liner: blah-450-bodies-blah-just-like-Bucha-blah. Is that it? Why not spend 1 hour with attention to detail? Here's a body with ripped out toenails. And before they change the topic, here's another with broken bones,
and another with missing tongue and ears. Here's a mass grave of 17 soldiers. What were their names? Do they have a mother? A daughter? A son perhaps? Here's a six year old. Who shot her? Let's discuss what this could possibly mean. Could this be a challenge to the Putin's regime? Does this look like the omen all the people of Russia were waiting for? And before we finish that topic, who ordered that and how they all ended up in that part of the world? What can we do to make sure these motherfuckers don't get away with it? Now, that would be some conversation! Eh?.. but no. The chopped off heels are just chopped off heels, this is an explicit act, there is no hidden menace to the Russians in it, no controversy, no gossip to discuss, not even a moral...

Isn't this a true picture?

Sloniara!

о, танки умовного противника

Ну, і тепер в Англії знають слово "sloniara".
Пишуть, що робота штучного інтелекту. Чи не dall-e часом?





What's wrong with them all?!!

https://youtu.be/WxK3S5DKQjA - even if you skip the interjections from the Ukrainian presenter, can't you marvel at the Russian liberals?
Drivers of the British cars have a higher survival rate in battles in Ukraine.
You may have heard of the stories of the Russian invaders stopping the locals to ask for directions, at times with funny consequences.

As I went to check out my grandad's home town, I noticed the map was outdated. To help rid my town of Soviet legacy, I went to collect what needs fixing.

Then I realised this is how you can defend your town in the 21st century:

1. adopt new street names 6 years before the invasion
2. update street plaques 2 years before the invasion
3. publish only a partial list of changes on the town council site
4. update Google maps:
4.a. misspell street names
4.b. specify words in the wrong order to ruin searchability
4.c. specify incorrect street extents
4.d. place real street names on the streets in the wrong part of town

I never thought I'd say this, but in times of war bureaucracy and low education level could save your life.

Is the actual answer to the question "why?!".

гражданский, хуянский - похуй. А чего их жалеть, нахуй.
- Конечно! Нечего их жалеть, нахуй
Know the song?

...then you see Russian army loot of children's toys, and realize the love for your children can be nuanced.

The Russian soldier's duty is to wipe Ukrainian nation off the face of the Earth.

There is no room for compromise here.
Will he nuke us, if we resist?

Will we resist, if he nukes us?

Quite remarkable: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racial_Equality_Proposal - proposed to the League of Nations by Japan, of all places
After Makino's speech, Lord Cecil stated that the Japanese proposal was a very controversial one and he suggested that perhaps the matter was so controversial that it should not be discussed at all. Greek Prime Minister Eleftherios Venizelos also suggested that a clause banning religious discrimination should also be removed since that was also a very controversial matter. That led to objections from a Portuguese diplomat, who stated that his country had never signed a treaty before that did not mention God, which caused Cecil to remark that perhaps this time, they would all just have to risk the wrath of the Almighty by not mentioning Him.

Cecil removed all references to clauses that forbade racial and religious discrimination from the text of the peace treaty...France declared its support for the proposal since the French position had always been that the French language and culture was a "civilizing" force open to all regardless of skin color...

The proposal received a majority vote on the day, with 11 of the 17 delegates present voted in favor of its amendment to the charter, and no negative vote was taken...The chairman, Wilson, overturned it


It seems everyone in the world wanted to discriminate someone on some grounds. Quite remarkable how things changed.
