@PawelK @Genen @SirDingus @rin @smigol I've only confused Romanian with Latinized Russian. My spelling is terrible and that was actually a Romanian woman I was communicating with. We both understood English and that's when I realized I had spent an hour trying to communicate. I don't know how I managed that.

@PawelK @Genen @SirDingus @rin @smigol Kalashnikov was Ukrainian but in the Red Army. He was injured in combat and started designing a rifle in Russia. They had the resources and made it possible. So it was a Ukrainian who worked alongside Russians with captured Germans to produce the rifle. Russia has really embraced the Kalashnikov Concern and they are using state of the art machinery in production of small arms.
Because of limitations of the design, it can't be made as accurate as the M16 or M4 but they have come close. China's military rifles are not as good as either but seem to be mediocre at everything instead of excelling. It was even mentioned that it had less recoil than an AK-74 which allegedly has less recoil than an M16. I was shooting an AR15 since I was 11, I never noticed recoil from it.

@PawelK @Genen @SirDingus @rin @smigol We were on the same CSGO team so I just assumed they were Russian.

@PawelK @Genen @SirDingus @rin @smigol Much like Kalashnikov.

@PawelK @Genen @SirDingus @rin @smigol I have heard the same about Ukraine. The problems there are just different.

@Genen @PawelK @SirDingus @rin @smigol I've heard that Ukrainian is like Russian but with Romanian influence. It was almost like Russian.

@PawelK @Genen @SirDingus @rin @smigol I only speak Russian but I have no real desire to go there anymore. I knew a former Soviet who designed Missile Defense Systems. He would not talk about modern Russia without a look of disgust and sadness.

@PawelK @Genen @SirDingus @rin @smigol Kurwa Mac! Is your language more like German or Русский? Romanian and Ukrainian seem more like Russian. They both make me respond in confusion or trying to correct them. This is always fun, getting a Ukrainian confused with a Russian.

@freemo @Bradley_JF I remember training in the humid heat of the deep south. We would usually have to carb load, eat a bunch of bananas and take more supplements on the way. It never seemed to do more than postpone the inevitable heat cramps.

@freemo The CB1 receptors will have their own effects. It's possible that the desired effects can be attributed to a single cannabinoid.

@lupyuen

@PawelK @lupyuen I don't know if he can see your comments. It could be that he set up his account in such a way that he wouldn't get messages from outside the home instance. I forget exactly how this works. He always seems to be the man with countless alerts when he wakes up. I like you both and I do stand up for my friends.

@freemo The transesterificaton that takes place and makes cocaethylene is to die for.

@lupyuen That's a long and very weird story about how two people were impressed with my work and wanted me to help their University with a super computer. One is an American male so like every weekend during this period of my life, I end up being the Designated Driver while all my friends get drunk. The guy came back over to me later in the evening and told me that his wife wanted to have sex with me. She did want to. Yes it's an odd story and perhaps a noble cause but I can't leave out that one part. I think they might have both wanted me to.

@freemo For when you need to feel well, there's Dexedrine and a shot of whiskey neat.

@lupyuen It would have been more noble if I had taken the bait years ago to go and work in Zhongguo.

@PawelK @lupyuen He says that he is Asexual, which to be fair is probably most of the Open Source Community. He has worked on more hardware than I can name, it has to be somewhere around a hundred different devices. He is one of the most influential developers in the open hardware and open source code world. He's modest and peaceful. He's one of the better developers to work with as he doesn't have a massive character flaw that I've seen. Many developers have a very dark side or will be glory hogs. Lee is a good man and a true unsung hero in FLOSS.

@lupyuen I'm considering going back to finding bugs and trying to keep the internet free, regardless of some special shield or oppressive government.

@lupyuen I've been noticed by someone who has put me in contact with some very notable hackers. Considering that I come from that background as much as I did from FLOSS. I'm very thankful for the both of you. I was around for the bootloader and bluetooth development/ports on the Pinetime.

@PawelK Most of the US Presidents who were assassinated were killed by Marines. They are often the ones who misbehave and murder people. They were meant for combat and not much else after they are depleted. It's a sad story but it's common.
