@zlax Sitting at the same table with anyone is not sufficient evidence of anything. Richard Stallman has been on Russia Today a number of times – does that mean he is colluding with Kremlin to undermine the American tech industry?
> You do not see anything wrong in the business dinner with the heads of the cooperative "Ozero"?
Here's her side of the story; a *business* dinner, right:

It can be counter-intuitive, but a nation's leader should be able to be diplomatic and not to be this guy:

@zlax Sitting at a dining table in Moscow in 2015 and smiling uncomfortably is very high on my list of unforgivable things, I have to agree.
Who knows what this really was about? My guess is that she's secretly Peskov's barber, his moustache has special needs after all.In conversation from loadaverage.org permalink -

@d3jblog What I really don't understand is how HBO Films relates to this movie: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_Ark (2002), from which this poster originates.
I cannot find any connection, so I assume this is, in fact, a fake.In conversation from loadaverage.org permalink -

@d3jblog What the… two letters are even upside down.
Was "РОМАНОВЫ" or maybe "РОМАНОВ'S" not appealing enough?
Though possibly they were afraid it will be read as "pomahobs"…
How about "ЦАРСКАЯ СЕМЬЯ"? That would've worked, right?In conversation from loadaverage.org permalink -

@cassidyjames Well, it works through GtkSettings, so from the GTK+ standpoint it's not a hack in the slightest.
And Flatpak… that beast is special. If GtkSettings don't propagate there, then even cursor theming mustn't work there.
I cannot really tell because I avoid Flatpak, so 'tis a mystery how they organised these things.In conversation from loadaverage.org permalink -

@schestowitz Does the US have a "second tour" concept? It's when a second tour of elections begins after no candidate gets more than 50% of votes, an election with the two most voted for candidates.
The simple idea is that when a candidate has less than 50% of votes, they're not really elected by the majority.
This helps overcome the fear of voting for a less famous candidate as then one can simply revote in the second tour.
So maybe the perceived famousness will no longer stand in the way.
After writing all this next I've come to the conclusion that this doesn't mesh well with the House of Representatives.
Ugh, US, why are you so… ugh.In conversation from loadaverage.org permalink -

@thor The word is from Latin where "validus" has a slightly different meaning: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/validus#Latin
"Invalíd" was never meant to mean "inválid". Wonders of language.In conversation from loadaverage.org permalink -

@elliemars It appears like the Mastodon link is not correct (an extra dash), and the Tumblr one too (should be a subdomain) :-(.
Otherwise nicely done and made me follow the links through the photograph even though I have no idea what this all is about ;-).In conversation from loadaverage.org permalink -
