In any Western court an entity who forked it, would win a copyright lawsuit if Rambler sued. You cannot claim it was your proprietary code all of a sudden after it's been openly available for 15 years.

I guess this is the reason they use a Ukrainian word 'Holodomor' for it?

I appreciate your confession.

Anyone who knowing enough facts calls what happened earlier this year and back in December 2011 "democratic elections" is, in my opinion, being paid by the Kremlin. You are being paid by the Kremlin.

Putin should feel humiliated when he meets his North Korean friend Kim (err.. what's his name?) next time, for getting his officially announced miserable 64%.

Look my friend, a guy in North Korea gets 100% of the vote. And Russia's poor friend Saddam Hussein got 99.9% on the most recent presidential "elections" he held. Putin, after 12 years of ceaseless propaganda should be ashamed to get the miserable 64% (of those rigged) votes. How much he stole does not really matter. He stole the election process itself. And he violated Russia's own Constitution by running for the 3rd time. Just like some of his comrade dictators. His gotcha moment. Welcome to the club!

P.S. Calling those "elections" democratic tells the whole story about you. Yes, you. They was nothing democratic about them, my Kremlin paid buddy.

Paid or not, you do know that it's not possible to compare Obama and Putin in terms of popularity. Putin has been covered by all major channels in Russia exclusively for last 12 years, every single day. It's also not possible technically because he made a mockery of the elections process, and even then had to rig the vote. You also know that your claim about his popularity among Russians outside of Moscow is bogus but hardly verifiable to most people on HN: but he's just as disliked there as he is in Moscow. Don't portray Russian people as fools: they are not. And your talk about things not being so simple: how familiar. They are simple, my friend: Putin violated Russia's own laws including the Constitution, when he ran for the 3rd time, and he should not be the president, no matter how big you think his popularity is. He wants to rule forever? He will end up as a dictator. Simple as that.

So Madonna should now comment on anything going over the world? She been to Moscow and SPB, so she expressed what she was thinking about the case which is a significant issue in Russia. Good enough?

Regarding the "vandalism" claim, you are wrong. The three girls have not touched a thing there. At most, they deserved to pay a fine (even according to Russian laws). I suggest you study the facts first before starting another of your ironic passages.

No, because what he said was a lie. And he knows it.

I guess you prefer having someone who does not get elected and steals for 24 years in a row better?

And as a Russian I think you better shut up in this case.

Things are'nt rosy for Putin indeed. And they're not as simplistic. I guess to make them simpler he got himself back in the office by rigging the vote and then by beating and arresting those who protest, Kasparov included?

"If you haven’t experienced waking up one day with millions in a bank account and a dozen or so people looking at you in the eye, nodding their heads and telling you that they believe in you, you have never experienced the perfect storm of excitement and fear."

Sounds like the author has totally misplaces what should cause an excitement or worth pursuing as a goal. It's not having someone looking you in the eye (who this person is?). And not even a million dollars in the bank (is one million a lot of money?). It's what you did to make it, and what you make after with it.

We need then to get in touch - even for the CFPB I cannot just reference someone by an online alias. Please write me to m3dsa [at] hotmail.com.

Thank you. This is probably the most valuable advice I got about the issue here. I will file a complaint there.

I used to be able to pay mortage online when it was BoA mortgage (it no longer is). Can't you do the same thing?

Back t the story: I am going to switch to a local bank from BoA as result of this. I hope they do treat their customers differently.
