MySQL sucks, and almost everyone who willingly use it also sucks.
All property is potentially subject to government seizure. Just like we’re all military reservists. These things are implicit, and we just hope and pray it won’t come to that. But total war is definitely on the cards this decade, at least for some countries.
All of GDP is spendable if the will is there. It’s not at the moment, but let’s see how this decade turns out.
If Hungary wasn’t so far west geographically I’d propose an exchange: We let Russia have Hungary in return for Ukrainian EU/NATO membership. Unfortunately Hungary is on the wrong side of Ukraine :(
I don’t think Putin has needed to do a lot of election fraud. He rules over the media, and has outlawed any serious opposition. I think of it more as an opinion poll than an election. For Putin I think unpopularity is a threat to regime stability, so he probably takes it seriously.
American weapon aid has already ceased. It’s truly dire on the front. What could get worse is if American intelligence aid also stopped. As hard as it is for Europe to replace America’s supply of 155mm, replacing US intelligence is going to be even harder. That is to say, it would be absolutely impossible.
Yup. This is an important point. Diplomacy as a stalling tactic is a very old playbook.
Good thing Ireland is so good at building new mass housing. Super cheap to live there, I hear.
Maybe, but you can push it really far before the breaking point is reached.
It’s an RPG, dude. If you don’t like RPGs then don’t buy them. I know a lot of people want Cyberpunk to be a GTA game or any other thing, but it isn’t.
For sure. But forbidding cars doesn’t make sense until you have several millions of people in a single city.
I think we agree but I still need to point out: Individual transport will always be a requirement for living in rural areas. The “fuck cars” sentiment only makes sense in cities with more than ~3 million inhabitants.
Bring back Theresa May!
When most people pick movies to watch in a theatre it’s typically based on which movie no one will object to. So it needs a bit of action, a bit of romance, a bit of comedy… It also needs to have brand/actor recognition. So you get Marvel. There’s nothing wrong with this, but it’s a different market from the one you’re in.
The trouble is that parts of Europe that didn’t use to get hot now get hot, but still don’t have AC. But that’s mostly because of conservatism.
You okay, dude? It was an expensive wipe, but what’s the harm? I mean, it’s better than wiping with your socks…
