And this is why Berlin tried to create a linkage between supplying Leopards and supplying U.S. Abrams. It was because the latter idea is deeply impractical. The goal was to generate a pretext for doing nothing. It was calculated and completely dishonourable.

A unix question i periodically ask:

What modern utilities should be a standard part of a modern unixy distro? Why?

I've got jq, pandoc, tldr and a few others on my list, but I'd love to know others; boosts appreciated.

Let's reflect upon how good Takamoto Katsuta is.

Seconds off pace of the best of the best. He was also leading against Ogier on one of the stages today. So good. So much progress since I started following the sport in 2019.

I've never been to Kyiv, but today I had a dream that I'm in Kyiv with my Latvian school friends.

It was dusk and all the lights were off, no electricity anywhere, but my Ukrainian friends were dancing to the light of power banks and keeping their spirits high as our other friends were fighting on the frontlines. It was a bittersweet dream, but also a reminder that peace and a sense of *relative normalty* comes at a cost of lives of infrantry on the frontline.

This is why heavy armour has to be shipped to Ukraine *WITH NO DELAY*. Almost a year has passed and there's no decisive military help from the West.

Don't get me wrong, the help is considerable, but it's morally and pragmatically on the SMALLER side of things rather than on the HIGHER.

We're balancing on the brink of , arguably, it's as good as already started and we need to demonstrate that we have learned something from the .

If the German Chancellor is incapable of taking the right decisions, Poland must now lead a coalition of the willing to send the heavy tanks that Ukraine needs !

Heard about Soledar in the news? That's where most of the Ukrainian salt used to come from. Kherson? That's your tomatoes, ketchup, and plenty of other agricultural products. Not to mention Western businesses that suspended operations in Ukraine "due to security concerns."

So you're somewhere in the West, living your usual, comfortable life, which is not that different from the one you were living a year ago.

This is exactly the case for the overwhelming majority of the Russians, except they talk about the war even less than people around you do.

5. For me driving on snow is easier than driving on tarmac, but I can see how it may not be the case for tarmac specialists. Practice some snow stage from leg 3 with hairpins. And practice stage 10 because downhill snow is brutal.

4. Don't lock up brakes at the entry into chicane on stage 11. Actually, it's just a 800 meter show super-stage, so you can practice the Lyon stage three-four times. Surprising amount of people in class messed up on it, and it's basically three straights.
