Read it carefully:
Are you pro-Russia or not?
The answer’s going to be “pro-Russia”
Are you pro war or peace?
The answer is going to be “peace”
The wording is extremely important. I’m not saying the polling is fake, I’m not saying that results are wrong.
I’m saying that you need to look at the question and really think what it’s about.
Mind you, my source, and your source’s source is literally the same Levada. The same series of questions. The same numbers.
Ask people if they’re for or against something that the government is doing in a country where you’re not allowed to go against the government and you get the result of the majority agreeing? Shocker. That’s like asking, “Are you a traitor or not?” Of course they’re answering “no.”
That’s the same issue explained in the article you’re citing. You have to look at questions that aren’t direct.
Like other data from Levada (that your source is citing as a source for those 70%).
(BTW, the 70% aren’t answering “are you for or against the war”? They’re answering, “Do you support the army?” And we kinda have a law that doesn’t really allow to say “no” to that Edit: and, that’s also mentioned in the article)
Should Russia continue the war or start peace talks? (2026)
Peace talks people have been the majority for almost the entirety of this “special military operation” (there’s only 1 month in 2023 where it wasn’t the case)
The number of people who want peace talks has also been steadily increasing. That’s the consensus. The majority wants it to stop.
The 70% you’re speaking of consists of 2 groups:
The first group is estimated at about 25-30%, these are the actual people who support the invasion, although recently, they seem to have become increasingly dissatisfied with the results and the government.
The second group will agree with everything that seems to fit the position of the government. They don’t have an actual opinion. They’re kind of like sheep: they’re just trying to survive. Those are the people who take the stance of propaganda, and they are the reason propaganda works in the first place. That’s ~40%
The group who is openly against war is estimated at about 15-25%, although its much more difficult to gauge it considering they are thought to be much less likely to answer questionnaires due to the risk of political prosecution.

Instead of Deepcool, I’d look at Thermalright. They have options that are cheaper yet perform better, including 360mm liquid coolers.
As for the Arctic Freezer, it’s going to be an overkill, but having a nearly silent build is nice. Do be aware that it’s much easier to mess up a liquid cooler installation than air. Essentially, always put screws through fans first (otherwise you’ll damage the radiator) and never tighten them (otherwise, you’ll strip the threading, even with hands), if they hold the fans, that’s enough tightness. Except for the CPU screws, those are the same as with Air coolers.
Overall, for your first build, I’d recommend going for an Air cooler and only then switching to liquid if you feel it’s needed. Temperature-wise you should be fine with either, 9700x isn’t that power hungry, and something like Thermalright PA 120 was doing just fine with my 5900x (although in a colder climate)
Don’t know about this MSI model, but I can recommend Xpg Core Reactor II 850W. There’s also a II VE version, but it’s a bit worse. Should be roughly the same price, but I can guarantee that this one is very reliable.
Also, always check in with the PSU Tier list from ZTT. With this build I recommend going for tier B or higher. The XPG II one is the highest tier.
It’s a balanced build, nothing else to say. Good job picking the parts. I personally may have gone for a CPU like 7800x3d, but that depends solely on your needs.
I don’t see how that would be the case.
PEGI is used as a way of informing buyers (parents) about the contents of the game.
It doesn’t prohibit them from allowing their kids to play, say, an R-18 game. The agency’s still there. It’s not like a mandatory age verification where your kids are disallowed from using the service completely even when you yourself allow them to.
Guess I won’t be bying that one.
What a shame, and I actually wanted to.
Ironic, considering the trailer is one of the things that was heavily criticized.
It looked very generic and didn’t tell you much about the game.
I believe it was also revealed at some point that it was thrown together in a very short period of time because they didn’t expect to need it then.
Wabajjack mod lists are deffinetly a must try, something like Enderal or LoreRim
I’d also check out a game called “The forgotten city”. Haven’t played it myself, but I did play the Skyrim mod it was based off of, and the story was solid, I liked it a lot. Or just try the mod itself.
Russian/CIS rock:
tl. Windmill. Folk rock with a very unique and not direct (literary) lyrics
1 word: protest
Very lyrical, often describing slice of life situations
tl. King and Jester. Punk/horror folk rock.
Feels like late-soviet bard rock
Final update:
It was a bad BIOS version
Afaik, it costs 24k rub for 32GB to DiY. 40k for the cheapest DIMM kit I could find
You can never be too big to fail
P.S. No, I’m not saying that Nvidia’s going bankrupt
You’re right, sry. It’s Yuzu, not Cemu
On android, I use either:
Basically Proton, but for Android
For RPGMaker and Ren’py games
For PSP games
On Windows, I used to run CEMU Yuzu, but it’s been shut down by Nintendo.
AI happened. It requires an immense amount of RAM and storage for data centers, and manufacturers don’t have enough production capacity to keep up.
Prices were going down because the consumer market didn’t have as much of a demand for both after covid.
Same shit happens on YouTube when commenting, so annoying
I believe I’ve seen them announce that already, so, yeah
I’d wait for Valve Frame to come out.
It’s supposed to be around the price of Index, hopefully less expensive.
Primarily because of Meta’s track record of breaking their headsets with software updates, it’s also going to be significantly lighter at the front, which is important. And will have eye tracking with foveated streaming.
For the last month, every time I tried to jump into VR I had a bug that prevented me from using the headset completely, so I’d just choose to play on PC instead.
I trust Valve to make a much more hastle-free experience than Meta at this point. And be probably switching myself as long as the price in my region allows for it.
Then explain how exactly am I misinterpreting it?
And why is your interpretation better? Considering your source failed to mention the question and falsely attributed it to “special military operation” support (I explained how that’s incorrect in the first comment)
Also, explain how am I arguing in bad faith? I’m trying to explain my position, yet you aren’t giving me yours, choosing to essentially only say that I’m wrong.
