>Do Russians feel that certain rhymes are "cheap" or otherwise unworthy?

Yes. Rhyming verbs with verbs is considered so basic only novice poets do it. I'm pretty sure there are some examples of such rhymes being used in classic poetry, but they are always used in extreme moderation. This is because they are very easy to construct. So easy in fact, they are mostly not used in children's limericks.

Yes, but more creative people would be making something new, even if most would use it for nothing. No matter the amount of additional innovators, the total would still be bigger than it is now.

She did commit a crime by travelling to Russia with an illegal substance, for which she got roughly the same sentence as a typical Russian would get if caught with a similar amount of drugs. This case doesn't seem to be out of the ordinary, except for the "criminal" being a famous foreigner.

Revanced with a client version spoof works for me.

Don't forget about the IP address.

>they'd be extinct a long time ago if they arrived in China/Middle East/Russia etc.

There is actually a group similar to the Amish in Russia, it's called the Old Believers. They formed after a schism within the Orthodox church and fled persecution to Siberia. Unlike the Amish, many of the Old Believers aren't really integrated with the modern world as they still live where their ancestors settled in. So groups that refuse to technologically progress do exist, and can do so even under persecution and changing economic regimes.

>Letting russia and china on the internet was a massive security mistake we should rectify.

As a Russian,comments like this make me feel less and less interested in being friendly with the (generalized) West. If I'll always be seen as "one of the bad guys" for the crime of being born in a country and not wanting to shit on everything about it, then why even bother acting any other way?

If I'm not mistaken, the bill only goes in effect when the states that have signed it start making up the majority of the electoral college.

I know many Christians who do not fast, but that doesn't make not fasting OK by the Bible. This isn't using religion as a cover but obeying its rules.

Can't find any info about journal encryption on the website itself. Perhaps there should be a page dedicated to explaining how your data is protected. Otherwise great stuff!

I think this is one of the cases where there is nothing wrong with using deepfakes. The person mimicked gave explicit consent and they did not do any harm with the tool. If technology increases accessibility of true political choice then it's good technology.

That said, I don't understand why the parent and the article paint this as a bad thing.

Not really. While Russia is often very lax with punishing cybercrime that doesn't affect its sphere of influence, it doesn't look into or hire these criminals since, like any other powerful state, it has its own better hackers. I cannot vouch for China but I'm pretty sure they act the same in this regard.
