It’s sounds like “bad”, but with a shorter “a”, so like “had”

Although I guess “bade” is used nowadays as well don’t know how erroneous it’s considered to be.

You can here people use it here

Seemingly Americans in those clips say “bade” (rhyming with “made”) but Brits say “bade” (rhymes with “had”)

“Risk averse” = broke as fuck

More than three days. 78-80?

Bad reasons, not my own choice the second time.

Yeah my point is rather that logistics companies, healthcare, all the things we consider essential work, need a lot of office workers as well. Like a lot.

If those people could not have stayed at home, the spread would’ve been much worse.

Not to even mention the long term effects if all “non-essential” businesses with office workers just stayed st home and those businesses would shut down for that while. It would’ve had massive consequences for the global economy.

Imagine the consequences for a generation of kids, essentially missing a few years of education. Even not it had a significant effect.

So yeah I miss a lazy 90’s night as well, just enjoying hanging out outside or if with electronics, still like socially, 4 sweaty dudes hunkered in front of a n64 goldeneye match (no oddjob). Or just fking tossing rocks while sitting on some stairs in the evening sunshine. Into a lake, usually. Ah. Great days.

I love it when people larp a philosopher by tossing out buzzwords that they think they’ve understood, but haven’t.

Everyone can see this conversation, and writing “no u stoopid” doesn’t make me look stupid.

I keep asking you the same question, which you desperately avoid (as I said you would from the start, so each of your comments is just proving me more and more correct), because you’re a coward, so you try these pathetic middleschool tactics, because you don’t realise just how childish they are.

You support crimes against humanity?

Take the L, Vanja.

Or prepare to take it on the Finnish border where you get killed like the other idiots who’ve gone to serve the Russian military without so much as a hint of protest. We’ll make mince of your poorly trained and poorly equipped and poorly educated, propaganda fed peasants.

Nah, who am I kidding, Russia is in such a desperate state you’d never have the resources or balls to open a second front in Finland, no matter how much you want to, you fascist cowards.

Apparently you didn’t have a job 25 years ago?

Not “we” as in “oh god whatever will I do with my personal free time” but “we” as in “the global economy”. Moving from offices to homes didn’t affect pretty much anything now, as all work is done on computers, papers aren’t much of thing, everyone has a computer at home and connections are good.

25 years ago maybe one in four families had a shitty computer which wouldn’t be able to run smooth 480 video let alone send or receive any meaningful data aside from some text documents through email

Fair do’s, mate.

Rage and childish strawman, zzzz. Come to Finland, my Russian friends will shake that Putler boot out of your mouth in your native tongue.

You can’t get better education systems before you get rid of the cunt at the top who cares less about the average Russian than I do.

You still haven’t given your opinion on Russia having broken international law with invading Ukraine?

You can just say “I don’t dare to comment on that” and I’ll leave it, I understand not everyone has as much freedom of speech as us in the Nordics.

“Sinister outsider.”

Again, nothing wrong with Russians. I know many here in Finland, and they aren’t to say that Putler is a genocidal sick fuck.

Poor education doesn’t mean youre mentally inferior. It means you got worse education. Someone who went to Oxford is bound to have a better reading comprehension than someone who’s never opened a book, I’m sure you’d agree.

Poor education does mean people have less media literacy, meaning they will be more susceptible to even low quality propaganda. And Russia has high quality propaganda.

I want Russians to have better education, thus I advocate for you to get rid of your disgusting tinydick dictator.

“You know what you’re doing.”

Yes, standing up to Putin’s crimes against humanity while trying to deprogram a Russian who presumably supports international crimes Putin commits…?

No? No answer again? Weird how my Russian friends here in Finland answer that in a heartbeat. Though mostly schooled in Finland as well, reiterating my earlier points.

You tried implying that I can’t keep a schedule, instead of addressing the earlier argument. Someone clearly downvoted that. It wasn’t me.

“I have no responses to your arguments so I’m gonna use some ridiculous bullshit excuse to leave while pretending my rhetoric wasn’t completely proved wrong”

Were you even conscious before mobile phones became a thing?

Racist?

How do you figure that one? Is it because I criticised your glorious leader and — because you’ve been programmed to — you took it personally.

I have nothing against Russians. I strongly believe the best thing for Russians is to oppose the wannabe-hitler you have as a leader.

Perhaps it’s because this isn’t your native language, but talking about a nation is different than talking about the people who live in that nation. Or maybe that’s not even a language barrier, you just have bad reading comprehension, because Russian education isn’t too doing hot. Again, another reason for Putin to fall out of a window.

Take back your country you pathetic bootlicker. You know that Russia broke international laws by invading Ukraine, you’re just scared to admit it even on Lemmy, because people in Russia have actually “fallen out of windows” after criticising the govenrment on social media.

You personally don’t need to support the current government, but you can also let people know that by saying shit that isn’t like direct kill threats to Putin.

But perhaps you’ve actually drank the koolaid and believe that Ukraine needed to be “denazified” and that’s the sole reason for Putler having invaded it?

Your grammar tells a story about being really annoyed.

You can lie and spread any manner of weird bullshit, even jokingly.

But you can’t say you’re against Putin? You can’t say you’re not pro-Russian? Even though they’re a despicable backhole third world autocracy lead by coward who looks like a deflated penis?

Is it because you’re afraid of falling out a window…? ;>

Edit also fuck Israel Netanyahu is evil just like Putler

He really didn’t give a shit about any voter.

Only the votes.

“Not keep commitments”.

In what sort of a life do you live that nothing surprising ever happens or you interact with no-one because you’d know people are unpredictable.

I watch people doing in public - personally I am never going to buy the argument that this is about "convenience

I’m use to drive a taxi for several years. When I started, GPS was still rather shit. (I usually preferred the street dictionary.) And when I was a kid, my dad had NMT phones in his cars.

You might not have any engagements that require any sort of fluidity, but other people sure do. For instance I’m driving someone from place a to place b. During the ride, they suddenly realise they need something from a shop. That’s an extra 10 min now that I could not predict, making me possibly late for the next ride, depending on where and when it’s from. Even with mobiles, it was hard to actually tell people times with accuracy more than a ±30 min after I had a fare or two in queue.

So yeah. Modern gps the ability for people to see how long it’ll be before you’re at their place has really made it more convenient. Not to mention that this convenience includes card payments. Because before you’d have to have a credit card and manually run it through the receipt labeler thingy. ka-chunk

To me it’s pretty obvious that it’s just addiction and irrational social contagion.

To me it’s pretty obvious you’re just being reductive because it’s not purely positives, like with anything in the real world.

If you don’t focus on high-schoolers and instead look at 30+ people going about their day, I’m sure it’s not “just doomscrolling and addiction”.

Hell, imagine if covid had hit 25 years earlier. The fuck would’ve we been doing? Working from home like everyone did would not have been possible. But it’s not like chilling at home while working is convenient, right?

Yes, politely asking the same question you’ve always refused to answer, just like davel@lemmy.ml does as well.

It’s really not weird for anyone that you don’t reply. We know you can’t trust your government enough to even when you’re spreading it’s propaganda to lie about not agreeing with it. Like how in North Korea you’d never joke about harming Dear Leader.

That’s why you refuse to say you’re not pro-Russian. Because you are. If your education wasn’t so bad, you might realise that this is pretty clear for everyone else. :)

A single Yes-or-No question. “A tantrum”. You need more English lessons, comrade.
