@SnokenKeekaGuard I was looking for an AI generated answer by the bot that I tagged. But thanks!
@Thorry84 Well, at least we now have 43 more people who joined Lemmy. And the pigeons.
@SnokenKeekaGuard @gpt what’s the best mojito recipe?
@dragonfucker Have you tried looking for a gay answer?
@LaFinlandia they have all the manpower to take prisoners, yet they commit atrocities like these. Meanwhile Ukraine is struggling with manpower but is respecting all international conventions in how to treat prisoners. It’s crazy!
@OpenStars bro, Chile the fk down!
@Cephalotrocity yeah, we’ll see how potent the orange guy is
@Kit Sorry for being late to this thread. As someone else said, if it’s also getting cold where you live, you can put things outside, in the shade. Here there are 12 degrees Celsius, but in the night it will be 1. Either way, in my country, if there is any vegetable out there we pickle it (we’re mostly doing this with cucumbers, green tomatoes carrots and cabbage, but you’re free to experiment). Here’s a simple recipe for that:

You’re basically putting these vegetables into salty water, or in a mix with water and vinegar, along with other stuff. If it’s not that cold, it’s even better, as the vegetables will become pickled faster.
You can also search for Romanian pickles or reteta muraturi on YouTube (if you’re okay with not understanding the language).
Another thing that we do is polenta. We usually eat it with cheese and sour cream, but as these require a fridge to keep, you’re free not to use them.

This video is in Romanian, but the steps seem pretty clear. Here’s what you need:
The rest should be self-explainatory.
@UngodlyAudrey Whatever you do, don’t plan on moving to Eastern Europe. Trump will leave us all at the mercy of Russians*.
*That is, if you think the situation under the Russian influence will still be worse than under Trump
@LaFinlandia a bit off-topic, but for those wondering, the song is not played by Rammstein. It’s Eisbrecher - Verrückt:
@MudMan That’s pretty much how war is. Imagine you had to basically shoot some people yourself. It would be terrifying.
@Fubarberry War Robots. This shit really got me hooked as of late.
Update Monday, 11:50 AM local time: Ziarul de Gardă published the map of the preliminary results of the elections.
There is also an easier to read map on r/Moldova, back on the spez site.
With the elections coming to a close, international reactions started to flow, most of them congratulating Maia Sandu, with Emmanuel Macron even writing a message in Romanian on X (formerly known as Twitter):

Translation:
I would like to congratulate Maia Sandu on her re-election as President of the Republic of Moldova. Democracy has triumphed in the face of all interference and maneuvering. France will continue to stand by Moldova on its European path
Other leaders who congratulated Maia Sandu were Ursula von der Leyen, Roberta Metsola, as well as the exiled leader of the Belarus opposition, Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya.
As a personal note, I would also like to thank you for following my updates on this thread, as well as the previous one. I thought that there is too little content regarding the Romanian-speaking space here on fedi overall, hence why I decided to take the matter in my own hands. Do you have any feedback to give me on this? Perhaps you’re just as unsatisfied with the federation issues I have as much as I am. Or just write me any other nice stuff that you want 😀
If so, I created a form below:
@alyaza can I vote even if I’m not a US citizen? Haha
@0x815 as long as it has troops in Transnistria they will surely continue to interfere and do it rather efficiently (not to mention about Găgăuzia), but yes, for now it seems the tide has changed in favor of Moldova - at least for the time being.
Also, what I did not mention was that Maia Sandu won in the county of the runaway Ilan Shor. How the turns have tabled. 😁
@0x815 it fortunately is. I’m happy that Moscow lost another foot in Europe.
Update Monday, 12:13 AM, local time: Maia Sandu de facto won the elections. There are not enough votes for Stoianoglo to flip the results:
Update 11:33 PM local time:
Maia Sandu is leading in the polls!
This time, on the official CEC page too!

Still 5.95% of the votes left to process, but 20% of the diaspora votes have been counted already, and the remaining ones are most likely in favor of Maia Sandu too (they’re in Western countries, and the diaspora there is less exposed to the Kremlin narratives). Polling stations are still open in the US.
HotNews (Ro) also says that 320,000 people voted in the Diaspora until 10 PM local time, a record figure.
In other news, the Police is investigating a 40-year-old woman in the Ungheni county for voter corruption. Investigators say that the woman was the local leader of the Criminal Organization Șor, who paid people to vote in a certain way.
Other cases of voter corruption were recorded in Chișinău (6), as well as the counties of Cantemir (1), Nisporeni (1), Rîșcani (1), Rezina (2), Anenii Noi (2), Orhei (2), Glodeni (1), Leova (1), Soroca (1), Șoldănești (1), Ungheni (1), Căușeni (1), Fălești (1), Hăncești (1), Ștefan Vădă (1) and in the autonomous territorial unit of Găgăuzia (1).
In Russia, Moldova opened just 2 polling stations, both in Moscow, citing security concerns. Ballot papers finished a little before 9 PM, when the vote was officially closed. People were angry, some chanting Down with Maia Sandu (in Romanian) (Source).
@Cephalotrocity I think Finland and Sweeden should become some of the NATO leaders should the US withdraw to any extent
