I was using phones with hardware keyboards for way too long and never really learned to type on screen keyboards. Now I just hate them and use desktop communicators whenever I can.

We’re almost there…

People keep writing like Argentinians really believed Milei is going to fix the country. Most people were simply desperate and voted for him protest. If you still think they are stupid for protesting like this that’s fine. Let’s just be clear about what they did.

redistribution of stolen wealth

How are they going to get the stolen wealth back from US and Europe?

Brexit was the perfect example of how this works: one direct policy change, clear predictions from experts what will happen, clear statements from EU, clear success/failure criteria (better trade deals, stronger economy). 7 years later if couldn’t be clearer how complete failure it was but the party that did it is still going strong. Their excuse? The idea was right but the execution was flawed. Also it’s still better then what the other party would have done.

It will be the same in Argentina. Whatever will happen they will simply claim they did the right thing, it’s their opponents sabotaging their work that responsible for the failure, it would be even worse had they not done it, they are the only ones that can fix it. People expecting that everyone will just agree that what they did was stupid are delusional. It never happens.

War in Ukraine showed it’s complicated. They may have equipment but how it’s serviced? How competent the command is? From what I know Poland doesn’t have any navy (as in they don’t have any modern unit) but Ukraine also doesn’t have it and is still controlling the Black Sea. They do have Patriots and F-16 so way better than what Ukraine had and Russia never really got air superiority in Ukraine. I would expect them to have good enough artillery and ammo stockpiles to stop any ground troops, same as Ukraine did. My guess is that if they are properly prepared the would easily defend themselves.

Or that he’s governing anything.

Backmarket FTW

But you need 2024 phone to run it.

Wow, I have no idea what copilot is and why would you want to hide the desktop. It used to be you had ‘show desktop’ button on the task bar. I guess I’ve been happily using Linux for too long.

Yes, I’m happy you’re starting to understand. It’s the same as with solar. It just shines on cars and they drive. You don’t need to build anything like panels or hydrogen storage or pipes to move it. It’s simply free energy. Like coal.

Yeah, coal is also free. I just lays there in the ground. It doesn’t cost any money to make it. Obviously you need infrastructure to mine it and burn it but other than that it’s free. Right?

Flying cars will be the future but I wouldn’t buy a flying car today.

Brain-computer interfaces will be the future but I wouldn’t implant a chip in my brain today.

Personal AI assistants will be the future but I wouldn’t pay $350 for ChatGPT today.

Lot’s of things will be great in the future. Bringing it up in the context of existing, silly products is a bit pointless.

Except it’s you that keeps writing stupid shit like “solar is free”.

Yep, that’s what you’ve been saying. Solar generates hydrogen for free. Just like that. You just park you car in the sun and it moves. Unlike a supercharger which has to be build hydrogen is just there. No buildings needed. Exactly what you said. Word for word.

Yes, because the hydrogen just appears there. No machinery needed. It just forms pushes cars. For free. Amazing!

The way the EU approaches this walled garden problem, is to try and offer ways for other competitors to tap into the user base of the bigger players instead of trying to allow all EU citizens to chat with any other EU citizen who uses META Products regardless of their host platform.

Probably because of spam? I don’t think you can open up all the communicators to every self hosted server there is. It would be a disaster.

Yeah, let’s see… So far Ukraine was able to take down planes deep into Russia’s territory, bomb Moscow, sink flagship of the Russian Navy, disable the most protected bridge in the country and bomb HQ of Black Sea fleet. All that with spare European weapons and toys. You really think that Europe would need US help to fight Russia? This war has proven that Russian army is in terrible state. Their weapons are shit and commanders are incompetent. They are struggling with a army 1/5th their size. Russia is once again back to their WWI strategy of sacrificing thousands after thousands of soldiers. At this point one has to be delusional to think Russia could fight Europe.

You don’t seem to understand that the only thing solar energy does for free is to heat the ground which is kind of useless for moving cars,

The glacier would move the stones if it would have been built before ice age. The big stones were most probably left there by the glacier and the wall was built after it receded.
