Capitalism: Stop paying for huge bonuses of Tim Cook!
I for the record have never bought anything from Tim Cook, Steve Jobs or Apple. Not even a single penny's worth. No iphone, ipad, ipod, rotten apple music, air pod, or any similar junk. They are over-priced, of dubious-quality, and most often u…

Most actual birthday: 150 years since the birth of Vladimir Lenin
I learned about Lenin by watching two movies many times in my youth: 1917 Lenin And The Russian Revolution; and Lenin in 1918 (Ленин в 1918 году). Well made movies at the time.
