Would it be possible to listen to it? Would it sound like static or does it has a frequency?


39? 40? 08?


Soviet/Russian invasion of Poland, Finland, and Georgia, respectively. (gee, wonder why they all want to be in NATO) There's also '56, Hungary, and '68, Czechoslovakia.


>bunch of nonsense

Ok lets see ..

Finland invasion.

>Finland was a co-belligerent with Nazi Germany during the early years of World War II

...

>The Siege of Leningrad was a prolonged military siege undertaken by the Axis powers and co-belligerent Finland against the Soviet city of Leningrad (present-day Saint Petersburg) on the Eastern Front of World War II. Germany's Army Group North advanced from the south, while the German-allied Finnish army invaded from the north and completed the ring around the city.

Georgia:

>The war in Georgia last year was started by a Georgian attack that was not justified by international law, an EU-sponsored report has concluded. The conflict erupted on 7 August 2008, as Georgia shelled the breakaway region of South Ossetia, in an attempt to regain control over it. The previous months had seen a series of clashes.

>gee, wonder why they all want to be in NATO

Gee, I wonder if its the same motivation as for Poland to be in eu:

Soviets demanded Finland cede substantial territory and when they said no, the Soviets invaded and annexed a substantial part of Finland to this day.

You’re quoting a 2009 article. Everyone that doesn’t mindlessly watch RT already confirmed that it was South Ossetian separatists that started shelling other Georgians and that Russia has no business also invading Georgia over that. Russia air attacked areas around Georgia’s capital Tbilisi.


Who is this "everyone"? Was the cited EU report updated? I'm quoting a BBC article, which is hardly in a Russian corner. In any case, it has more credibility than a "trust me, bro" on HN.

I would love to watch RT but its censored in EU.


In 1939 Moscow invaded Finland, killed 25,000 its citizens, annexed 10% of territory. Do you claim Finland should have been Moscow ally afterwards?


No I claim Finland should not have been a NAZI ally. There is no excuse and nothing will wash this part of history clean..

Oh and since we are counting dead:

The siege of Leningrad of which Finland was a part of:

>The siege became one of the longest and most destructive sieges in history, and it was possibly the costliest siege in history due to the number of casualties which were suffered throughout its duration. An estimated 1.5 million people died as a result of the siege.


Molotov-Ribbentrop pact — Moscow invaded Finland (1939), occupied Baltic states (1939), divided Poland with Germany (1939). Moscow was Germany ally for two years of WW2. Holodomor (1932-1933): Moscow killed millions without active war. "Great Britain, USA should not have been Moscow ally"?

Moscow invaded Finland in 1939.

Siege of Leningrad was in 1941.

"Poland provoked occupation by Germany" (1939)?


>Siege of Leningrad was in 1941.

That makes it ok?

>Moscow was Germany ally for two years of WW2

Are you high?

Poland also signed non agression packt with Germany:

Does it make them allies now?


The 2009 EU report has been widely criticized as flawed, both at the time in years since. You can drill down on the details here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Responsibility_for_the_Russo-G...

>Finland was a co-belligerent with Nazi Germany during the early years of World War II

Which happened after (and never would have happened without) the Winter War.


>and never would have happened without

We don't know that now do we?

Reading EU Report: sure its criticized, it does not make it wrong.


its not.


maybe you can explain?)



oh, got it, if we talk about population, than yes, I was thinking in terms of country size


That would be Russia and Denmark (if you count Greenland).


>Also, colloquially Europeans consider Russia to be an uncivilized backwater, so they don't count.

citation needed. Otherwise, your prejudice has no place here.


Chill... It's not like they're saying it publicly within earshot. Only the Finns, Latvians, Estonians, Lithuanians, Polish, Ukrainians and Moldovans do that.


It’s a fun little bash script. You feed it an Apple playlist, and it exports artists and albums, creating an HTML webpage with Google search links prioritized to Bandcamp. This way, by clicking on the links in the resulting HTML, you can go directly to the artists’ Bandcamp sites and buy the albums from your playlists, thus removing yourself from the cloud further. You have to export the Apple playlist and use it as a command line parameter with this script. I did it because the Apple Music buying experience sucks.


So.. what's the problem again?


In my pursuit to retrieve my music from the cloud, I find myself once again at a juncture where I need to work with folders and file names. In doing so, I've rediscovered the issue of having similar folder and file names. If you have a large music collection, you sometimes encounter similar folders and names, which can lead to a huge mess, especially if you try to use Rockbox and other devices that utilize flash cards and the FAT32 systems. My goal was to reduce this mess. So, here is an example of how i tried to solve this problem. Maybe it will help you too.
