Which “this”. Kalas saying the the EU will never agree to annexation may have low impact, but it isn’t capitulation.

This.

50% of the economy in the US is controlled by the “Whenever the fuck I want” class.

Has anybody tried the HA voice hardware. Not sure how it works (does it use a cloud AI?)

I blame these f’ing phone keyboards and autocorrect. I can’t see what I am touching, I can’t feel it, there’s no feedback, and I have to look up while I type. Whoever came up with approach deserves… A bad case of indigestion.

For this number, is it related to the Chinese government GDP numbers, or independently measured? My understanding is that the CCP use GDP differently that the West, in that they release numbers which are prescriptive estimates and goals, as opposed to statistical results.

This is up there with “the Libya model”

There are other boots waiting in line; we need to transition in a way that prevents dominating empires.

EU tariffs alone would not be that painful on their own, but add in Asian tarrifs and perhaps some South American numbers… maybe bring the penguins in too.

Make them a territory.

~~Why is that better than usb-c? ~~

Wait… Power the other way. Whoops, I get it.

What’s funnier is that the Americans could have dropped Chinese raw materials if they had built a collaboration before tariffing China, but the current Government have only one tactic: try to bully everyone at once. They really did make their own mess.

I thought that there were no tarrifa added to Russia in the recent wave?

Yes please.

There are plenty of economic and demographic problems to solve.

I inherited a switch from someone who wasn’t using it and was blown away by the prices for the majority of games on it. They were charging AAA prices for Mario titles. If they had priced their Mario. Zelda titles at half the price, those things would have dominated before the SteamDeck’s came out. The switch is barely used.

This could be great news. RISC5 could be great for diversity in the processor space. I at will take investment on the scale that only a national investment like China can invest to get it to compete.

Does China have the Fab capability to build these, or do they need foreign production?

Yeah, that Vivek case was a highlight, wasn’t it. Having that racist nutball come on his show and tell him she’d never vote for him because of colour was nuts.

Check the article 5 requirement. I don’t see any “unless another NATO country” exceptions.

Probably moot as all the US has to do is increase presence and wait for an “or else” moment, so that they can rely with “or else what?”

I think they are much more enlightened these days. They are happy take brown & yellow if they have enough green.

Things were different in the periphral nations, than in the center. Those who read your comments with heritage from the peripheral will understand you, and the others will not.
