Yes, if your plug looks like this, the new ones will do.

Ground goes from the pin on the one you already have into the plug, or through the tiny plates on the side.

Science might like latin words, but this one is greek. The dys- prefix means difficult, lexia means "ability with words". Oh, and greek is not dead.

Bullshit. Russia already had NATO at its borders (baltics) and now it has more of NATO on its borders (Finland) than before the invasion.

And wait a minute, what was the plan here if that was even the case? Take over Ukraine so it has even more of NATO (Poland) on its borders?

Catch is "somewhere else" wants 6 million to make you a citizen.

Either that map is wrong, or the US doesn't understand how the EU works.

I still rock XMMS almost every day. It simply does the job I want it to do and it's so lightweight it might run on a toaster.

If you want something more modern, qmmp should be great.

You should be more worried about why we glorify horrible contemporary people, or from the more recent past. Elon Musk, Steve Jobs, Donald Trump, Ellen DeGeneres, the list is endless. There are a lot of people that even glorify Hitler himself.

And wrt Alexander the Great, having killed a lot of people does not make a person horrible. My grandfather killed a lot of people, probably hundreds. He never wanted to talk much about it. He was a great guy and a hero. Alexander the great killed a lot of people, but in doing that he eliminated the enemies of his people. He is recorded in history for spreading civilization, arts, education. He founded many cities that flourished, some of them even stand today. He freed a lot of cities that were ruled by his people's enemies. His conquests are one of the major reasons modern western civilization exists. He did all that as a military leader and he killed a lot of people.
