Matrix exists.

Ukraine wasn’t ready to do that in 2022 either.

Especially as there are open source alternatives such as matrix

Vietnam, Korea …

In fact the US never fought a war against a major power that wasn’t won by other major powers.

America’s only rival is China

Or Afghanistan. Or Vietnam lol

Huh so somehow that all powerfull US military couldn’t beat Afghanistan but China or Europa gonna be easy peasy? lmao

I’m sorry why exactly would Europe need to build a new military after the US leaves? Are they gonna take EU armies with them?

UK and France have nukes and aircraft carriers, Poland and Germany building up their continental forces, Sweden is no joke either.

If Europe wanted they could defend Greenland. I don’t think the US would be ready to use the necessary resources to win that fight.

Drones, hypersonic missiles, no must for public tender, attilery production, companies switching to military production. If left wing media complains here it means Germany is doing some things right.

Well, I sure hope Europe will team up with China to fight the US in case the US is invading an european country.

Germany is massively building up its military while talking like this. Are other countries doing the same?

What are you taking about? Do you think all articles journalists write for a newspaper are published? There are probably dozens of articles not making it online or to print each edition.

No, you don’t have a god given right to have your article published on any newspaper you’d like to

Yhea wtf. A private newspaper deciding to not publish an article is not censorship.
The article is publicly available in Germany https://hyperallergic.com/1050197/what-i-wish-i-had-known-about-germany-earlier/

And other newspaper are writing about it:

Aren’t they Swedish? I hope sweden has some robust workers rights.

I don’t think you can compare software from like 20 years ago to software today.

Things got way more complicated and applications require a lot more work

Because software needs to be maintained. Well at least most software that has a subscription model is maintained and gets regular updates. People don’t work for free, you have to pay them

You still don’t need a blockchain to track product logistics. This is always gonna be centralised, just use a normal database.

It doesn’t. “Wasting water” is bullshit most of the time. What you waste is the energy powering pumps and sewage plants.

Disneyland Paris

Or any other Disneyland, do they build the castles all the same?
