If you listen to Russian sources, Pokrovsk, a random town of 60k people pre-war with moderarely ok roads (again, pre war. Its a mountain of rubble now) may as well be castle Grey skull, the very linchpin of the entire war.

And now that this massive obstacle is gone, and so easily with basically no real casualties, all those new recruits are clear to join for an easy and glorious march on Berlin, Paris and London!

For a town with a pre-war population of some 60,000 people.

There are tens of thousands of Starlink sats up there, but we know where and they're mostly in very low orbit. The risk pales compared to a single Chinese Anti-satellite weapon test, which created "over 3500" pieces of debris that we know of

I recall being a grad student, and one of my friends was super happy their paper was mentioned. The context was basically "Contrary to claims by [friend et al]..."

"being disassembled" here meant "literally drilling hole through the storage unit to push the locking stud back. The refit was (unsurprisingly) to make that hole standard.

I wonder if they unofficially named it after the moron who discovered this feature.

I'm currently the owner of a mid-price non-suv European car. They're pretty common.

The upper teeth are solidly in the "danger triangle" of the face. If those get infected, there's basically just a highway to the brain.

Without dentistry, getting a cavity could easily lead to an infection, and without antibiotics, that could easily kill you.

People don't really realize how lucky we are with modern medicine. People used to die from all sorts of things we consider trivial today

Bad teeth used to frequently kill people as little as a century ago.

 

There are a whole bunch of options to mark posts as read, but as of yet, I can't seem to find an option to actually hide to posts.

Am I missing something, or does marking a post just grey it out?
