      If hes not on a paylist for state sponsored propaganda he should be. That was insufferable reporting on the level Id expect from fox news.

      Putting aside personal feelings about this move- considering the current situation in Russia… this move may well actually protect some developers lives. There are people taking long walks off of short balconies because they didn’t kiss the ring. If I was a developer in that country I’d personally be pretty stoked I was off the short list.

      I knew that anything from Lunduke wouldn’t be well received from ultra-left lemmy before I even opened this comments section.

      You’re comment would have won me a swig in a game of “drink every time lemmy does XYZ”, assuming I were degenerate enough to imbibe alcohol.
