@freemo That reminds me of how artificial sweeteners were discovered. Sometimes not washing one's hands can lead to not death.

Just got excited about an internship with RISC-V and discovered that every position is filled.

@PawelK @Genen @SirDingus @rin @smigol I know it translates roughly to "fucking bitch" in English. It's difficult to use because if they understand it there will likely be a physical response.

@PawelK @Genen @SirDingus @rin @smigol Pizdit is just general profanity, I don't know if it can be used incorrectly.

@PawelK @Genen @SirDingus @rin @smigol When I was learning Chinese I often heard other languages and it kept confusing me.

@PawelK @Genen @SirDingus @rin @smigol I know that it was standardized but not forced to replace the native languages.

@PawelK @Genen @SirDingus @rin @smigol Counter Strike Global Offensive. It's not uncommon to hear Cuka Blyat or Pizdic in game. It has become a meme about Russians somehow. Like Stalker.

@PawelK @Genen @SirDingus @rin @smigol I've only confused Romanian with Latinized Russian. My spelling is terrible and that was actually a Romanian woman I was communicating with. We both understood English and that's when I realized I had spent an hour trying to communicate. I don't know how I managed that.

@PawelK @Genen @SirDingus @rin @smigol Kalashnikov was Ukrainian but in the Red Army. He was injured in combat and started designing a rifle in Russia. They had the resources and made it possible. So it was a Ukrainian who worked alongside Russians with captured Germans to produce the rifle. Russia has really embraced the Kalashnikov Concern and they are using state of the art machinery in production of small arms.
Because of limitations of the design, it can't be made as accurate as the M16 or M4 but they have come close. China's military rifles are not as good as either but seem to be mediocre at everything instead of excelling. It was even mentioned that it had less recoil than an AK-74 which allegedly has less recoil than an M16. I was shooting an AR15 since I was 11, I never noticed recoil from it.
