  6. Comment on Moscow hit by largest Ukrainian attack since start of Russia's full-scale war in ~society

    Specks of black oil have rained down on part of Moscow after a refinery was hit during the largest Ukrainian attack since the start of the full-scale war, with close to 200 drones fired towards the Russian capital.

    Residents in the south-east of Moscow region told the BBC that a fine drizzle had left "unpleasant black spots" on their clothes.

    Moscow authorities denied that any "oil rain" had been falling.

    Almost 1,000 drones and four Ukrainian cruise missiles were intercepted and destroyed across the country in 24 hours, Russia's defence ministry was quoted as saying. An oil depot was struck in the southern Rostov region, where one person was killed.

    Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelensky said the drone strike was an answer to last week's Russian attack on Kyiv, which set ablaze a major religious landmark, the Pechersk Lavra monastery.

    "We don't want this war and have never wanted it," Zelensky said. "But if Ukraine burns, your Moscow will burn too."

    In response, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said strikes on Ukraine would be delivered "on a mass scale", adding he had been "convinced for a long time that words are not enough".

    For me there is a thin line between blog post and article for general public. So... answer is "kinda yes" or "maybe"?

  10. Comment on Proton sponsors far-right French YouTuber, claims lack of awareness in response to backlash in ~society

    Answer from Proton: For me its fair enough.

    Answer from Proton:

    Proton operates globally, and while our services are available to everyone regardless of political views and our mission is consistent everywhere, our knowledge of every local media landscape is not. In this case, our team didn't have enough context about the French space to make a well-informed decision, and that's on us.

    We also want to be straight about what a placement like this is and isn't. An affiliate or sponsorship arrangement is a transactional placement for awareness, not an endorsement of a creator's views. In the case of Vincent Lapierre, this was a single video sponsorship, not a partnership.

    But that distinction doesn't excuse what happened here. The responsibility to vet who we put our name next to is ours, and we didn't meet it this time. We're now reviewing our vetting process and our guidelines for our marketing agencies to ensure this doesn't happen again.

    If you see something like this again, tell us. We rely on your feedback and vigilance.

    For me its fair enough.

    Also,

    The Siegrune (a single lightning bolt rune also known as the Sig or Sowilo rune) is banned in Germany when used as a hate symbol or in a Nazi context.
    The ban does not apply if the symbol is used for art, historical research, education, or countering anti-constitutional activities.

    In English I definitely prefer second variant. Something about "thirty nine - seventeen" rubs me in a wrong way. I think it can be related to pronounciation.

    Huh, that's actually pretty interesting question. I can swear that 54-58-60 is more "pleasing" than 11-51-67. But I have no idea why! Maybe because it's more easy/more smooth to pronounce, or...
