OK, I did not know that about the land of Four Seasons: Early Winter, Mid Winter, Late Winter, and Next Winter (Sorry, that's a Burlington joke they sell on coffe muygs to tourists).

But thanks, I learned a thing.

@LnzyHou

He lives in a very red part of Texas. so yeah.

Historical reminder that Russian aggression against Ukraine pre-dates their invasion of Donbas by at least a decade.

In 2004, Russia attempted to assassinate future Ukrainian president Viktor Yuschenko by poisoning him with a chemical found in Agent Orange. He survived the attempt, but his skin was scarred for life.

@feloneouscat

They're simple on Python with a decent framework :)

A good framework has event queues and resilience built in. Heck, even CherryPy which is barely a framework.

Not udp tho except for email spam lol

"He has been absolutely, I would say, as concerned for maybe even longer than I have been about the danger that Donald Trump poses, and I can't explain why George W. Bush hasn't spoken out, but I think it's time, and I wish that he would," Cheney said
