In Lithuanian, we escaped the madness by making up our own name for it:
Sraigtasparnis = sraigtas (cog) + sparnas (wing)
Not to be confused with the word for autogyro:
Malūnsparnis = malūnas (mill) + sparnas (wing)
Which is not interesting unless you are writing some alternate history with aircraft in it and want to call them something with no Greek or Latin.
All languages that are used are kinda broken, except the synthetic ones, like Esperanto.
The amount of exceptions and weird rules in non-English languages I speak (Lithuanian and Swedish) and kinda know (Russian) proves it.
[‘a’] + [‘b’] = ‘ab’
Gets me every time.
Yes, but now their propaganda machine can say that they want to stop the war.
I am apologising for what Gražulis does in advance.
Same, but because I’ll make someone mad by posting.
Ir was always cringe, but we did it anyway.
You can’t really destroy an insurgency via military means. See: Iraq, Afghanistan.
The cutout looks like Saddam Hussein.
Fallen rockets might still have propellants in them, such as hydrazine or nitric acid, so I’d say it’s a good call.
Yep, in their mind Russia is great and is the future. Meanwhile, countries west of them are decadent and temporary.
To play the devil’s advocate, Poland and the Baltic states received a lot of third country refugees (from Syria, Iraq, Egypt, Sudan, etc.) from Russia and Belarus before the war in Ukraine.
It was a hybrid warfare campaign where Russians would advertise how easy it is to cross the border and how good life is on the other side. They would also help them get to the border.
Those refugees quickly overran Baltic refugee centers and caused political instability.
I am anxious about money, so instead of being anxious about lack of money, I would be anxious about having what I see as too much money.
To be honest, “If it’s not giving me what I wanted out of this transaction, then it’s bad.” is a heuristic that works well for most things we buy. If I buy candy and it doesn’t taste good, it’s bad. If I buy a car and it breaks down, it’s bad.
I think the real problem is that some people see games as a product and others see it as an art piece. Some games fail at being either, some succeed at both.
Yeah, Tesla cars and most EVs don’t have a traditional transmission.
Loads of renovated parks and buildings, parts that used to be sketchy have mostly improved, the town center has become richer, while a lot of people who grew up here have moved to the suburbs.
Meanwhile, Vilnius-Lublin portal is working with no incidents.
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
Ah yes Russia, please antagonise the country with one of the highest artillery shell stockpiles and production capacities in the world, what bad thing could result from that?
