I do kind of take issue with the presentation here. Pointing to the number of countries without access is rather misleading because it gives a country as large as Pakistan the exact same weight as somewhere like Tuvalu. In terms of population, the list of blocked countries is I believe around 30% of the world population. That's definitely still significant and IMO worthy of a headline on its own, but the way this article focuses only on the raw number of countries feels disingenuous for the sake of being able to showcase a big attention-grabbing number.

Yeah, it's not grammatically correct AFAIK but it's a fairly common mistake to see.

So based on this and your post the other day about red meat, I really really really advise you to seek counseling or a psychiatrist. Obviously no one can diagnose you via social media, but this post is borderline incomprehensible and your recent posts and comments are strongly indictive of some kind of manic episode. I really think you would benefit from help right now and I really urge you to seek it.

Idc, just please don't call me a coder, it makes me sound like I'm a script kiddy.

When these tests are conducted are they typically sent from an email with a non-company domain? I ask because a few months ago my partner received a test which she failed because it was sent from an email under her company's normal domain name. I'm not in IT but I am in software dev and I thought this was pretty unreasonable, since in that scenario (AFAIK) either the company fucked up their email security or the attacker has control over the Exchange server in which case all bets are off anyway.

They still have a 6-seat lead, and even if two or three resignations follow they'll still have a 1-seat buffer on party-line votes.

I worry about the precedent that this sets. My understanding is that the EU has been as successful as it has in large part because of the fact that many decisions like this require unanimity, and bypassing that may lead to an overall weakening of the union.

Frankly, I think the other 26 members should seriously be looking into the possibility of ejecting Hungary from the bloc. It's absolutely absurd that Orban has been able to hold the entire EU hostage time and time again, and I don't really see any other way to remedy the problem short of a full-on revolution in Hungary.

I'm not sure why you would assume I'm American. I mean, you happen to be right in this case, but I'm still not sure why you'd assume that.

Anyhow, there's an irony in your assertion that disagreeing with the position of one's government is "brainwashed."

I mean, if you add enough iron I believe it would eventually disrupt fusion, but you'd need an incredible amount, far more than you'd ever get from orbiting planets.

It's essentially the commercial version of Wine (although I'm definitely oversimplifying). It's developed by the same company, CodeWeavers.
