    Also, in French the term for store is magasin which I'd imagine is where the Russian word comes from.

    FWIW, the communist leaders like Lenin and Trotsky did a lot to end the small workers councils that popped up during the February and October revolutions. They used the authoritarian communism to destroy the anarcho-communism to further the anarcho-communism at some unstated, non-existent future date.

    I also don't like talking too much during a haircut in Canada but there's an old tradition of the barbershop being a place to chat. Then again, I like men cutting my hair, but I usually go for a fade or something more traditionally masculine. I've also never waited that long for a haircut. Usually, I book a time spot online now, no wait needed.

    I'm sorry but what about Netflix and chill? 13:10. Must admit, it seems very cost inefficient to not have had more access to contraception. It's not like the Soviet Union cared about intellectual property anyways.

    Some of the lady's models with jasper, amber and other stones are REALLY valuable now if running well. A lot of lady's watches are really boring, but Chaika and Zaria (Belarus), had some of the best designs for women in watchmaking. Also, the old Zvezda women's watches of the 1950s are WAR-HORSES! I just had one come back from a customer, who works for the Postal Service this week to have a hand put back on, and it is obvious she wears it every day - strap is almost worn out, and the glass was completely dulled from fine wear. All polished up and ready to mail back out!

    The Urals are okay. They aren't any better or worse than 60's Teiscos. The biggest problem (Teiscos too) is tgey all have some Rube Goldberg vibrato system.

    I am thinking about the building methods used there, and how they might be applied to construction today. I like the idea of sand boxes around the perimeter as opposed to gutters. We used to have tin roofs, they were painted with green LEADED paint, of course not today for the toxic lead and the prohibitive cost of tin. But if find an abandoned and falling down farmhouse in Ohio, often this roof still exists!

    To be fair, most cars and trucks in the west back in the 80s used decades of old technologies such as carburettors, points, hydraulic brakes with no ABS, traction control or ESC. They just looked newer on the outside (styling) but were similar to a 1930s vehicle in most ways underneath. Even things like live real axles and non independent rear suspension made it in many (especially American) cars up until the late 90s/early 2000s. A good example of this type of American prehistoric design is the Lincoln town car/Crown Victoria. Starting in the mid 80s though, this started to change with the introduction of digital technologies such as EFI, ABS, ESC, VVT and other tech. Things like airbags too became common in the 90s.

    Take aways, everything in the soviet union was a cheap knock-off. Poor quality, could only be sold in the Warsaw Pact countries. Feel sorry for the employees working as slaves.

    Stepan bandera murdered by a czechist in Germany 1958. Ukraine is the biggest country to suffer mass murder from kobas sadism and the millions of Jewish people from the eizatzgruppen and extermination camps. 3.5 million Ukrainians died in the xolodomor hundreds of thousands in the great terror and 10 million in the great patriotic war as well as Ukrainian jews.

    There were even bigger ones, the models from Belarussian manufacturer BeLaz. They were used in the mines in Russian, Tajik and Uzbek SSR.
