Yes a higher civilian death ratio but the Ukraine military are not in civilian areas.
Admittedly Russia actually targets civilians but it is with long range missiles and drones, most of which get intercepted.
That article says Ireland is also trying to expand the definition of genocide to include Ukrainian deaths. I don’t know why it does not fit the definition currently; perhaps because Russia are not trying to wipe out the Ukrainian population? I dunno. Get back to us if you find out.
Am just pointing out the legal definition of the word regardless of whether courts are just
Potatoes are cheap by weight. Machine saw a single item and didn’t believe it was a potato. Not that anything looks similar; it just flags it for staff to check.
Where should the Israel Jews go now though?
Iranian citizens are not being targeted whereas Iran (and previously Hezbollah) is bombed at least one Israeli town where there are no military.

Podcast on 99% Invisible with the guy, also talking about other one handed keyboards on the market (and why they suck).
40 minute uncut video of Tesla robocar in LA. Impressive. It may be a cheat using remote drivers I suppose.
Here is a short video showing Tesla robocar ignoring a school bus’ stop signs and flashing lights.

Olympic gold medals don’t make money. It is for national pride. Even hosting the games does not always make money.
Actually I am Aussie. 12 years ago it was calculated that each gold medal costs us AU$12m (so about US$11m in today’s money). It embarrasses me.
Even if we were the only country researching…
I have heard GOP politicians saying something like “why should we fund a cure for a disease and everyone else benefits without spending a cent?”
Why doesn’t their national pride on the world stage extend beyond sport?
Why should the world benefit from our taxpayer funded research? I want my taxes spent on training Americans so as to let the world watch (for free) fast running and swimming.
Am still waiting for a skipping event in the Olympics.
OTOH they can probably be traced
Well, they are called TracFone 🙃
That would equate it with the Holocaust, Rwanda, Cambodia, the nature and magnitude of which were very different. Perhaps they could create a new word for those?
