«Этим законом государство еще сильнее сужает право граждан на доступ к информации»
Путин подписал поправки (https://sozd.duma.gov.ru/bill/758160-8#bh_histras) к закону «О военном положении». Они разрешают скрывать информацию о деятельности власти и армии. А также увеличивают полномоч…

One obvious reason this could be the case, despite the stimulus impact of the war, is that a lot of dotcoms / tech companies are highly sensitive to the stock market, VC funding, etc.
IOW, revenue from the stock market & VC funding suddenly disappeared, leaving them at the mercy of high rate loans, due to the historically high Russian central bank key rate.
And so, huge swathes of high tech are at risk of debt spirals and ever-increasing rates on loans.

was für ein Rumgerate. 🙄

There is a long and storied history of whistles for protection. Ancient Egyptian guards used to place a blade of grass between the thumbs to alert other guards of issues that were transpiring. Later, shells were used to the same end. In China, acorns with holes drilled in them were used similarly.
As a dedicated instrument, whistles have been made of wood, bone, metal, and later, plastics. British bobbies have used whistles to communicate over distances since the 1880s. They are a commonly used tool for boatswains, crossing guards, and referees.
I wish I knew more about rape whistles, but they seem similar in functionality to hikers taking whistles with them in case of injury, as the sound carries much further than yelling, and is much less tiring.
As someone regularly stalked by a large creepy harasser, I am grateful for the whistle I was given for self-protection, even if the creeps who it was given to defend against resent the fuck out of it.
