Small cylinder batteries are just called "batteries" in English. If you mean the type that you can charge, we call those "rechargeable batteries". People will infer that you mean the cylinders even though usb batteries are also rechargeable (I'd call that an "internal battery").

I like the sound of accumulator more though. In English that word is usually reserved for hydraulics or electrical engineers

"functioned" is the key word there. No elevators, terrible insulation, no air conditioning, tiny radiators for heating, small living space for entire families, and infested with bugs. Of course some American apartment buildings check all those boxes too, but it's naïve to assume that soviet apartments were great places to live

Xi Jinping is a fascist, and I don't think it was liberals that enabled him

This is fake btw

Prom is really not all that special, it's a formal for high-schoolers. I could barely remember mine by the time I finished college

The dominion lawsuit has them scared, rightfully so

As usual, the algorithmic media machine is trying to drum up anger and emotion because that gets clicks and ad views. There were definitely a few transphobic jokes that I was not okay with, but to say he the special is "filled" with them is a bit much.

Also the quote "I love punching down" was clearly not sincere the way he delivered it. I didn't like the special, but the outrage over it is overblown especially considering that putting it in the news will only get more people watching it.

3 of those 8 were shot down by patriot missiles. I like speculating too, but I would think photos of F16s operating in Ukraine would leak pretty quickly just from excited civilians or air force crew

These are novelty vehicles for the ultra wealthy. "Normal" pickups are already comically large and ripe for mockery, no need to hyperbolize

Almost like news written in english tends to focus on english-speaking countries and their allies

"No, stop farming, infant mortality rates are supposed to be over 50%!"

Those bricks are laid incredibly poorly, look at all those gaps
