      Alright, this is getting unfunny now

      most likely resulting in slower internet services or complete disruption for the average Russian. Unfortunately, the ordinary Russian wouldn’t be able to use high-speed satellite internet as a backup, as Starlink does not work in Russia,

      What the fuck is he talking about. Yandex is not an ISP, it doesnt provide any internet access services to anyone. Its first and foremost a search engine, like google (the crawlers are most likely responsible for most of outgoing traffic, tagged as bot or otherwise), with craploac of affiliated services, like google, including their own payment system, like google, which is causing a lot of pain rn to those who chose to keep all of their savings in it, and their own cloud service, like google, which took down quite a lot of other sites with it, along with disruptions to TV’s (yandex OS is running on bearly half of them, like android) as well as, unlike google, taxi and food delivery services that they have near-monopoly on, so those effectively halted in the entire country. But, again, unlike google, they dont offer FTTH, residential or commerical internet access, or anything even remotely like that. What in the fuck’s sake satellite internet and starlink has to do with it, idk, thats just plain absolute worst journalism, just writing words without even a pinch of research.

      And no, despite of how funny it would’ve been, there isnt actually any report of reduced troll activity ofher than some weird chart some german politician pulled out of their ass without referencing any source. You can even go to xitter, type “яндекс” into search and find loads of actual Russians mass ratioing those few that chose to defend yandex, as well as their reps themselves trying to calm everyone down. If anything, Russian activity on foreign resources only increased because domestic resources are down.

      Depends on what you call bots. Yandex is a Russian search service, so it needs to constantly crawl the web, just like Google or god forbid - DuckDuckGo. This traffic is 43% down, and not what Lemmy calls bots.

        I don’t think I would take that picture. It’s kinda weird that you can just pull that up from your gallery, as if it’s a side note. Do you often take candid shots of people having a rough time? Idk, that’s weird to me

          Yes. I take pictures of despair to show fellow Americans when they tell me this is the greatest country in the world. Liberals gasp that I would take pictures like this! Well newsflash, the USA is filled with misery, you just want to be shown the beautiful Hollywood propaganda. Fuck that. Take pictures of what hell this place is, what it does to people, how it treats it’s vulnerable.

          I can also post the picture of an elderly woman killed by a speeding driver. I like to pull that out when people tell me we can’t make our streets safer.

            Did you ask that person for consent for a picture? Or is someone experiencing the lowest state of their life journey just free game for public exhibition?

            Did you speak with them, drop them a slice of pizza, a water, or a sandwich? Or just take a picture like they’re a zoo animal to show people to win internet arguments?

              Do you live in a neighborhood with a chronic homeless population? Do you experience the pain and suffering if individuals who are unable to find shelter on a daily basis? Do you know what rotting flesh smells like from an untreated wound because the person is chronically high and passed out under a bridge?

              Don’t fucking judge my photography, judge your government and society for allowing this shit to exist. I see the pain everyday, and having people like you brush it aside and virtue signal that this isn’t a problem is pure evil imo

                Literally yes. I live within a few blocks of a shelter, and know the community decently well, as they’re part of my neighborhood.

                I notice you declined to mention if you got that person a water, or some food, or just took a picture for your internet high horse.

                Fuck off with you accusing me of virtue signaling while you use the unhoused as a fucking photoshoot for agitprop. You’re a misery tourist, and I will judge you for that.

              This is the USA. I don’t need consent to take pictures of people in public.

              If they choose to sleep obviously in public I will happily take pictures, there are more discreet ways to sleep, no?

              I asked them if they were ok, no response, I called 311 and they told me there’s nothing they can do even though I told them idk if he is alive 😀 insanity!

              Zoo animals, if they decide to sleep blatantly in public spaces I will blatantly take pictures of them, ask them if they are ok and if I don’t get a response call 311 (who will tell me there is nothing they can do)

              I think I got all your questions. Like I said I am documenting the SHITHOLE USA, JUST BECAUSE YOU DON’T SEE IT DOESN’T MEAN THE SUFFERING DOESN’T EXIST!

                Thank you for the Palantir defense, very cool! You could interact with them like a human, and provide help instead of calling the cops to take them away because they’re sleeping in a place inconvenient when you walk by.

                Note added, misery tourist. The world becomes a better place through action, not whining online while acting like the paparazzi for people in a bad place in life.

        I’d actually put good money on this not happening. Russia isn’t really geared up to deliver oil like that they’re all about the pipelines.

        Also whatever tankers they do send will have to get past if fleet of pissed off European fleets. Remember countries like Estonia went through some relatively severe economic hardship in order to sanction Russia, and then the United States comes along and does a deal with Russia to save themselves from a war that they started. Perhaps maintaining good relations with the United States is no longer worth it? I could totally see an oil tanker getting bordered.

              I am in China right now picking up some stuff before I head back to vietnam, it has way better infrastructure than any other country I’ve been to, last week I took a highspeed train 200 miles for ~16USD.

          You type “i dont think its ok to torture people” as a response to a news article about people being tortured, and somebody pops up with a history lesson about what your country did before you were born so maybe you should firebomb your own capital city instead of saying that other countries shouldn’t commit attrocities etc etc etc its 99% of the time somebody from .ml

            And it doesn’t make any sense to begin with what they’re saying. They’ll contradict themselves constantly, had one say the USA is authoritarian then in the next post say such a thing doesn’t exist.
