Its a good description of an alliance two nations dividing up Europe to conqueror and supporting each other with supplies, oil, military hardware. But I’m sure you also think north Korea is a democracy after all they are called the democratic peoples republic.
People who would just bang on stalls are fucking deranged.
They have never reduced emissions only reduced emission growth and only by single digit % only to increase it the next year. I dont care about how much they’re producing they choose to produce that and therefore they are responsible for those emissions same as everyone else.
Where are you getting that info? This is two years old and China downplays emission data.
You’re getting hung up on the literal title and ignoring the historical reality. When your “non aggression pact” also includes actively partitioning independent nations, coordinated military invasions, joint victory parades, and massive economic agreements specifically to fuel war against the West and support your war against the eastern bloc its an alliance in all but name.
USSR didn’t need nor want mutual defense as germany was the only one who would threaten them and they were themselves about to go on an expansionist war against smaller countries.
By that logic why would any country have to reduce emissions. Reduce emissions nah im on the tail end of industrialisation so im not gonna do that. Im sure global warming will be happy to wait because we all know once you finish industrialisation emissions hit 0.
I would hope so given how much pollution they’re responsible for. They should have already been there or at least been close. Europe’s at 50% now and China is still on par with the US who’ve been run by a child rapist for the better part of a decade.
Thanks for the write up these are always good to read.
As for convincing people for the first few months on linux its best to not proselytizing to much. Once you understand the pros and cons better then proselytizing is fine. I personally find it most effective to never tell someone they should switch or make them feel bad for not using linux. I just talk about linux positively and my own experiences with it and naturally people are like oh that sounds pretty cool. I usually dont hand hold either if they want to switch I straight up say there will be software you cant run and you will have to learn how to use it. I tell them some of their games wont work and point them to protondb. They are always pleasantly surprised at how many games work. I think the privacy argument is not at all convincing for most people they just dont value it at all. the best argument I’ve found is that Linux is efficient and quick, it gets out of your way and there are cool features that the other operating systems dont have.
I cringe so hard when I see people advertise linux as faster than windows, just works no issue completely easy transition because i know linux and I know something weird will break and shatter the illusion and they will feel extra bad because all they know about linux was that it was a super good just works experience. So I act like there will be minor issues and then they can be surprised if there is none and ready if there are some.
How is it not an alliance? It fits that definition perfectly. They supported Germany’s war effort economically they had meetings where they talked about dividing up Europe, they double teamed Poland together and had a parade after.
Or buy Chinese AI hosted on non us non chinese hardware.
Stop you’re scaring me
Ok I will leave it to you to do what you gotta do to fix it. Bring them in line. You’re in a country with 52 cats right now.
Before that they were allied.
That would be a good place to start
Ok so make it consistent then? Doesnt seem like a problem to me.
I have a 15% vat in my country so I guess im just not used to the US not having a vat. Stupid US stop excluding tax from your prices its insanity
Thats cooked, thats the same as USD
The steam machine is within the margins of prebuilt costs. Its a bad deal because building a PC right now is just a bad deal. Matching the form factor is the biggest cost destroyer. If you want a small efficient gaming PC you dont get much better than the steam machine but if you’ve got enough space for a big 9060 XT then you arent competing vs the steam machine. Granted this is amazing advertising and got to hand it to them. But steam machine isnt 1039 euro is it wouldnt it be more like 900 euro.
Yeah from what I skimmed its mostly true but the framing is very bias.
I wonder if we’ll ever see this stupid persecutions stop in my lifetime. 15 years I thought it was inevitable now im not so sure.
