    1. I hear something there or from my friends. It’s funny, but our small Lemmy did make me watch a bunch of stuff, not by posts mostly but by references in comments. MOTHERLAND NEEDS YOU TO MAKE AT LEAST ONE MOVIE REFERENCE PER COMMENT;
    2. I manually download it via qB and keep it seeding OR find it in VK if I’m short on time and it’s there. I don’t care about quality since I have shit for sight and can’t care, but I know how russian dub can either save or ruin things and not having a choice makes me avoid all streaming platfroms altogether, not to say what shitty companies own them and how their contemporary local-produced suggestion are irrelevant to me;
    3. It sits on my non-system larger hard drive. I put it onto some USB stick to take it to where I can watch it with others;
    4. On Win it’s MPC-HC\VLC, on Linux it’s VLC mostly. I’m still in a search of a Linux player that can find and play external subs and dubs itself without me clicking around;
    5. Usually, just from my memory. Sometimes I put notes or send messages to myself at what point I stopped.

  • China has some obligations and also profits to have from Russia but it sees this connection as toxic so it uses it’s NK subsidiary. They don’t want to smear their reputation for nothing when they already face challenges in foreign tariffs against it’s products like cars. And they also see benefits in keeping Russia under perpetual stress from the West because it leads to this country becoming integrated into chinese market and sphere of influence.




  • These aren’t probably news by itself, these were news when these laws and guidelines themselves appeared around 2021 when it was suggested by everyone but wasn’t clear if Russia starts things and it was used as a proof it would. I’m yet to hear this specific law getting used though, and article kinda shoulders that.

    The Kremlin has begun distributing an updated instruction manual to military units engaged in its war in Ukraine on the preparation and maintenance of mass graves.

    That contradicts what written on the cover - last paragraph dedicates it to (probably) law students becoming candidates of science, a step before becoming doctors and after getting bachelor’s and master’s degree. But I suppose it’s formal and doesn’t mean much. I just wonder who the fuck would waste small amount of hours at that level of education on that niche subject that no one but lawyers specified in military cases gonna use. As a practical guide with all the beaurocratic measures to dig graves in the legal, specific way - yeah, they are mostly needed on the frontlines. But I have my doubts anyone would care to do such things by the book and am surprised there’s no moss-covered standard from the soviet 70s to cover that like it usually happens.


  • I don’t know how it works with a frequently updating OS. In my mind beaurocrats can become asses about certifying one exact version they inspected and then making users afraid that open source community can inject the next version with viruses and they can’t be sure it’s okay too. Ah, and making each certification a paid service and somehow fucking it up.

    In Russia there are like two projects of local Linux with custom wine that you can buy just like other software, certified by FSB for sensitive business (I believe them being the first pieces of software to get it except specific cryptographic stuff), but I feel the reason it’s getting adopted and certified is because there are some nepotism and illegal connections with money not really changing pockets.
