I think the meme is attempting to disparage the “ungratefulness” of present day liberals in these FSU countries

Yes, well this is basically Russian diplomacy propaganda 101 - “I did this and that for you and now you’re ungrateful”. Similar stuff abusing husband says to abused wife. Basically if russians helped you in any way in history, you’re supposed to be their vasal until the end of the universe, there’s no expiring date on that. It’s abusive and disgusting

Exactly, I pointed it out because soviets often try to steal all the achievements of the country - same as in this meme, a horde of russians came and built for poor, dumb baltic people all the stuff. In reality, it’s much more complex and those constructions were built by local workers, local architects, etc. With russian money I guess but that begs the question - who should get credit for those buildings then?

Who built those hospitals, schools, libraries? Russians or the people of baltic countries?

I don’t know what to respond to this. I vaguely know about Black lives matter/All lives matter situation (I’m not from US) and it looks like you’re implying I’m some racist, bigot, right wing asshole. All I can say is - I am not.

And when I think about it, I hate that the right achieved that any discussion on this topic is immediately shut

Not for me, it’s just objectively incorrect name

It’s actually very simple

• Fry onion on oil
• Add 1kg of any mushrooms (in my case it was oyster mushrooms + champignons, roughly 1:1 )
• Fry a bit until mushrooms reduce their volume
• Add 3 tbsp of ground paprika, a bit of ground cumin, salt and black pepper
• Cover the pot and cook for 10 min
• Add mixture of 200 ml almond milk + 200 ml soy cream + 2 tbsp of flour
• Cook uncovered for another 10 min
• Done. The dumplings are just a mixture of 350g of flour and 300 ml of water (and salt)

And it was absolutely delicious :) I was actually surprised how good it turned out

EDIT: Original recipe in Slovak if it helps. I did some changes though (f.e. replaced butter with oil or used regular flour for dumplings)

Oh, typo :) Thanks, fixed

This. To put it simply, people respond better to what’s familiar and to what has a clear goal. F.e. if you’re about to open a restaurant, don’t sell power tools in it. If you want to sell powertools, create a separate store

Unfortunately yes for Slovakia. I mean I like Bratislava, I lived there more than a decade, it’s nice but … I feel like we have so many more interresting cities. From top of my head Banská Štiavnica and Bardejov (both UNESCO city centers) or personally I really liked Trenčín and Banská Bystrica, or Poprad being next to Tatra mountains …

Yes but only because of a guy in 1910s who looked into it

The identity of Henry Symeonis was only (re-)discovered in 1912 by the then Keeper of the University Archives, Reginald Lane Poole. In an article for the English Historical Review, he looked at the curious statute and tried to get to the bottom of the Henry Symeonis mystery.

What are you going to do today?

Sure Sputnik, sure

But I can buy anything with fiat curency and with bitcoin I can basically buy nothing. And I never will be able probably, bitcoin is too slow to be used as an actual curency to buy common things like groceries

Eh, I’m gonna play the devil’s advocate here but when I thought about it, I’d say it’s more like a human nature or common sense. I can imagine a person who feels excited by posting spicy pictures online in 2011 and then realizing “You mean people are willing to pay for this shit?”

I have it the oposite way :( Especially the airports, they pressent themselves as this beautiful, clean location for happy traveling people. In reality it looks more like in the picture, people beeing on the edge of collapse, exhausted, living like shit

So I’m a true neutral? I’d never guess that about myself …

AI generation can be used for disinformation which can literally destabilize or right away end the world as we know it.

But fake Taylor Swift pictures, this is where we draw the line …
