It bothers a bunch of us, especially those of us who lived through the Cold War; I spent my career designing and programming products to end that, then had my career destroyed by the end of it. But this is not the place; this is where good programmers and engineers come to learn how to do their jobs or hobbies better. We are a community devoted to helping each other to become better at what we do; we're not here to change the world. There are other forums for that, lots of them. Please do join them, and support them; this is an existential issue that should concern all of us. But not here...

By the way, don't believe the lamestream media reports on the Trucker Convoy in the US. I was there, freezing my butt off, at their first stop after setting off from the Peoples' Republic of California. The media reported a couple dozen trucks; I lost count at somewhere around 70, and they just kept coming. At that time, the convoy was 8 miles long; today it was reported to be 27 miles long. Our fearless leader is, of course, hiding in his basement, as usual. There's a lot of coverage out there about the Ukraine situation; please do keep in touch with this. But this is not the place for it, unless you have a software fix that can make it better.

Good Lord, I'd love to see a SaveUkraine patch in my Windows Update display...
Will Rogers never met me.
