kill -9 vs taskkill /f

Ich weiß was gemeint ist, but I still don’t get why religious authoritarianism by Christians is called Islamist. I don’t like neither religion, but we won’t get any progress by calling it the wrong religion.

Car tuning is just immature bloke behaviour and actually endangers everyone else in the public compared to dancing on a cult day.

Also WTF has Islam to do with this?

I told you it’s not a LAN party, it’s a TokenRing party!

Maybe I’m biased towards Klitschko, but I’d have probably done the same if those people aren’t related to me. War is hell and people who don’t want to be there will not be beneficial to the defense effort.

“ding… ding… ding…”

Be glad that there are so few of us that we can’t afford violence. You will pay, though likely on far too small a scale.

You could call him BlackRock national with a provincial background. Merkel played with his political power ambitions for decades and he took that personal.

Nationalism simply isn’t a good description for him, but opportunists like him sometimes become nationalists to achieve something (e.g. Trump). He might be an enabler of nationalists though.

If I’m not mistaken, it’s more his old-established, pro-employer, cultural-hegemonist party that won and less he as a symbol.

Semi-regardless of his party political affiliation, it is a good thing that the the constitutional office of chancellor reaches out to neighbours in diplomacy to strengthen or upkeep connection.

This move is a method to counter sane washing of the US regime. When the negotiations fail, the EU is “forced” by Trumpist irrationality to act. The countertarriffs couldn’t as easily be framed as “attack on the US”.

not the teachers fault, but middle schoolers aren’t the most cooperative demographic for standardised education, but maybe (?) it’s the most important time for culture building to have standardised education

They don’t want to add to the crisis.

This is vegan, not VCJ.

This is kinda like black supremacy

No, just no.

They seem pretty eco-fascist

I don’t believe that you want to be vegan at the moment.

The guy and the female?

For examply by increased range: Weapons that shoot down rockets/drones before they hit can protect a city or region.

a war is always more expensive

Call the Kremlin/White House/Zhongnanhai, I think you’re onto something there.

“Diplomatic Solution” is only viable if rulers care about pre-war military economics. Authoritarians don’t always do that.

“Conventional” weapons make a defensive war less deadly to civilians and more expensive for the other side.

MAD only works if all sides have nuclear anxiety and the existence of nuclear weapons doesn’t rule ballistic weapons out of existence, especially for countries without nuclear weapons (see Ukraine). I’m not advocating for nuclear proliferation here.

The equilibrium of MAD (as in “The only way to win is not to play”) might be relevant for countries with nuclear weapons (i.e. Russia, USA, China), but telling the Ukraine defense that “The only way to win is not to play” is insulting and privileged.

Germany does not intend to test how far Russia is going with ballistic weapons and cannot rely solely on the power of MAD’s equilibrium from France, NATO or USA.

The country I live in tries to be prepared for war and so do many countries in Europe.

I and my in-group have a lot to lose when countries like Russia, USA or China expand their influence onto Europe, by indirect, hybrid or direct intervention.

European society is already split enough, it doesn’t need further authority (from outside).

You are just naive in thinking that querfronts can prevent a war.

I never said that I think weapons prevent wars.

Wars with erratic actors like Putin cannot be prevented, because certainty of peace is built on trust, but Putin cannot be trusted.

I see your attempt of derailing, but I’ll play the game.

How does appeasement prevent a war? It didn’t work for the First or Second World War.
