Well I do, and I refuse to vote for politicians that support dictators. If everybody thinks like that, then even the most self-serving, jingoistic politicians have an interest in protecting human rights.

It would be great to have closer ties to Asia. The concern is the imperialist claims to Taiwan and the whole Xi dictatorship thing. We have already learned what trading with an imperialist dictator does to Europe after Putin. Just blindly jumping into a closer relationship with Xi without a carrot and stick and without building closer cultural ties to the Chinese, Tibetan, and Uighur people, will only backfire for Europe.

It’s not a cold war, a trade war, or any sort of economic competition thing, it’s just concern over the volatility and human rights issues of dictatorships.

As an aside, Sanchez is missing the fact that the EV tarriffs were implemented in response to excessive state aid by the PRC. It’s not good for him to promise to drop the tarriffs without committing to more negotiation regarding the EU’s concerns about state aid.

Aren’t coops basically democratic condos? In Sweden we have “bostadsrätt” which are condos governed by a democratic resident association. They’re good for democratic control over housing, but they still require a mortgage and they’re still subject to market speculation. Some of the apartments can be rentals, but that still means you have a landlord, just that your landlord is your neighbors.

Having the city or the state as your landlord seems like it would be more ideal, or at least a balance of coops and public housing.

A tale of selfish betrayal as old as time

How else does Macron expect to get a majority behind Barnier? He already rejected a technocrat coalition with NFP. Macron is obviously expecting to get support from Le Pen in return for a cordon sanitaire on the socialists.

Ah yes, an Ensemble-Republicains coalition with 38% of seats is totally a “majority” and will totally survive. This was totally better than the 65% majority coalition proposed by the NFP around Lucie Castets before Ensemble decided that they decided center-left was too extreme for them.

Macron is clearly running to Le Pen to save himself from getting impeached.

Just a historical comparison I’m making based on the Wikipedia articles for the Kosovo War.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NATO_bombing_of_Yugoslavia

A NATO-facilitated ceasefire between the KLA and Yugoslav forces was signed on 15 October 1998, but both sides broke it two months later and fighting resumed. When the killing of 45 Kosovar Albanians in the Račak massacre was reported in January 1999, NATO decided that the conflict could only be settled by introducing a military peacekeeping force to forcibly restrain the two sides.[50] Yugoslavia refused to sign the Rambouillet Accords, which among other things called for 30,000 NATO peacekeeping troops in Kosovo; an unhindered right of passage for NATO troops on Yugoslav territory; immunity for NATO and its agents to Yugoslav law; and the right to use local roads, ports, railways, and airports without payment and requisition public facilities for its use free of cost.[51][35] NATO then prepared to install the peacekeepers by force, using this refusal to justify the bombings.

It took years of fighting, but eventually both sides’ refusal to sign a ceasefire was used as justification for NATO to neutralize the military forces in the region.

Isn’t this a 30 day vulnerability since this vulnerability has been known for a whole month?

I hate the buzzword 0-day.

Counterpoint: RoR1 was a 2d sidescroller

I’m honestly seeing parallels to how Milosevic had a limit for how long he could delay a cease fire

lol indeed 🥲 Very much a war of Russian stupidity.

Adventures in bad sociology, fascism, and gender/neurological chauvinism with our favorite billionaire.

It’s a bit more nuanced than that. Russia would immediately be at war with every other nuclear state, but there wouldn’t necessarily be retaliatory nuclear strikes unless Russia began firing missiles at nuclear states too. The video I linked is a from a Danish professor who describes really well the dynamics of misusing nuclear weapons.

Actually, sieg already means victory… Very on-the-nose headline from the BBC.

Nuclear politics trump geopolitics.

No they won’t. If Putin isn’t a complete idiot, he knows that using nukes will be the end of Russia.

This is not a productive comment. It’s probably best to discuss the pros and cons of veganism and it’s followers somewhere else.

Unraid is bad at NAS and bad at docker. Go with a separate Nas and application server.

There’s a big debate over this in Sweden right now, too. Average working hours have been increasing in Sweden since the 80s.
