Today in Labor History July 18, 1942: 15 Norwegian paramilitary guards helped members of the Nazi SS kill 288 political prisoners from Yugoslavia in the Beisfjord massacre. The Nazis had brought over 5,000 mostly Serbian political prisoners to Norway, as slave labor, to help build defenses against the Allies. Over 2,300 of them died in Norwegian prison camps. Overall, there were over 150,000 POWs, political prisoners, and slaver laborers, in Norway between 1941 and 1945. The majority were Soviets. Author Knut Flovik Thoresen wrote, in 2013: "You can be sure that if Norwegian prisoners had been exposed to similar [atrocities], then many of the perpetrators would have been sentenced to death. Instead, most were let off with sentences more lenient than those received by women who served as nurses at the front lines."

Russian kid buys his first car, repairs it himself. Cool, huh? But when he tries to register it, it turns out to be stolen.

To stop the police from starting a criminal case against him, he has to sign a contract with the military and ends up captured in Ukraine.

He was promised to be only digging threnches, but was thrown to the front with only 2 weeks of training.

They call his mom. He's one of the lucky ones, he's still alive.

Russian doctor carved ‘Glory to Russia’ scar on #POW during operation

After more than 3 years of #Russia’s invasion, each new revelation of cruel treatment of Ukrainians in Russian captivity hardly surprises anyone

The words, written in Russian, were branded into the right side of the body alongside the letter Z, a symbol of the #invasion that many #Ukrainians and critics of the #war liken to the #Nazi swastika.

My point was that Ethereum staking can be run on a NUC or even on a Rasperry Pi.
There are no ASICs here. So:

"#Ethereum uses #ASIC|s which makes it way more polluting due to these being useless for anything else."
is completely false. misinformation.

meanwhile:
" the only thing that moving #Ethereum from #PoW to #PoS achieved is raising the wall to make it harder, more expensive amd less attractive for #SmallInvestors to fiddle with it."
Is also demonstrably false.
