You don't need to side with any hegemony but defending countries that would and have killed anarchist movements makes you less of an anarchist than one that does defend any western power.

Ultimately advocating for anarchist ideals is more likely to work outside of authoritarian governments so I cannot understand how hexbear can defend those. But then again people vote against their interests all the time so maybe I shouldn't be surprised.

I tried to understand why they were defending governments like in Russia, North Korea and China but got permabanned for sectarianism.

They aren't like any other anarchist I know and I'm in a local anarchist group. Like no anarchist should ever be defending authoritarian governments.

The article doesn't mention how it compensates for different keyboards. Like wouldn't different switches and wear change the sound?

Yea, industrialization improved things in like every country that did it but saying the USSR was not imperialist is wild to me. Resources from the annexed territories were being shipped to Russia on a regular basis, literally one of the reasons that made the Holodomor so deadly in Ukraine while Russia itself was mostly spared. Smuggling was insanely common here in the Baltics to ensure the locals could keep what they make and not suffer from famines as well.

1924 is when Stalin took power, not when the USSR was founded. Put I guess it's true that he improved the situation in Russia with imperialism to it's neighbors so technically for Russia itself it was a pretty good ride still.

More like since 1924

My absolute favourite is definitely The Ancient Magus' Bride but close second and third would be Spirited Away and Princess Mononoke.

That too. I actually didn't think of that because roads here aren't in a grid like ever so I failed to understand how numbering your roads would even make it easier.

It's because one road is indistinguishable from another while malls, towers and tall buildings in general are quite memorable.

I'm in my 50s and I can't do paper maps. I can navigate just fine without Google maps but I navigate by landmarks while paper maps seem to rely on knowing road names, which I don't.
