Thailand should definitely be in top 10!
From what I have heard, that seems right.

Russia Vanishes From Asia’s Biggest Airshows as Its Arms Export Industry Shrinks

It's kind of sad to see all that potential Russia had after the fall of the Soviet Union go to waste.But for now the worse it is for Russia, the better it is for the world.And in particular Ukraine, who is a completely innocent victim of the insanity of Russia.

Jeff Bezos doesn't want the Ukrainian angle to the war!This reeks of helping the Trump White House with their anti Ukraine policies.

Fuck USA for not standing with democracy!And Fuck USA for not standing with their closest traditional allies!USA alone it is, at least for my part it is.

Why is Debian always left out of the distro recommendations?

Jump

Buffalox @lemmy.world 9h ago

I’m talking about comes pre-installed

Apart from Steam not being a standard installed item, it is very feature full.For 32 bit you also need to enable multi-arch.

But apart from gaming it is in no way bare and very very far from "super bare". Ans Steam is pretty easy to install.

I did not say it was not great or popular.

You wrote it was mostly for servers. Which although it is an excellent server distro, it is most definitely developed at least as much for desktop use.

This is not the dunk you think it is…

I don't think you really understand the implications.

Super bare. 🤣🤣🤣Debian is probably Thee most supported distro with the most packages available.Debian is also among the absolute best among Linux desktop options, and actually quite popular.There's a reason Debian is still the most forked distro.

Musk labels Spain PM ‘tyrant’ after Madrid proposes social media curbs

Nazi Tyrant complains about not being allowed to be a tyrant.I bet Musk finds that it limits his freedom that he can't have slaves. The mans mind is so toxic and distorted, it's astonishing it doesn't kill him.

The total combat losses of the enemy from 24.02.22 to 04.02.26

Jump

Buffalox @lemmy.world 20h ago

Absolutely true, but the problem for Russia is that they are destroying themselves too in the process.And when this is hopefully soon over, the Russian economy will be worse off than the Ukrainian.It's absolutely horrendous for Ukraine to have to go through this, Russia on the other hand, they chose it for themselves.

Seems like Russia is determined to destroy itself, and they won't stop until they are.

As food prices surge, Russians stop buying fruit, ignore expiration dates, and brace for more hikes

Jump

No there are not, most economists when invited to major news channels claim that we shouldn't expect the Russian economy to crack anytime soon. Mostly based on official numbers.But when evaluating the Russian economy from news we get from other sources, the picture is quite different.The official inflation in Russia is stated at 7-8%, but some independent sources estimate it at about 15%.We know Russia has financial problems, and companies are prevented from going bankrupt, banks are simply not allowed to declare the companies bankrupt! And these companies often can't pay their workers. But how widespread is this problem really?Russia is doing many nontraditional things to keep the economy going. And it seems like the "experts" lack the necessary knowledge and understanding about what is going on to give us a reasonable picture.

I predicted already a year ago that at this point in time, Russia would begin to have very serious problems, because of failing infrastructure and failing harvest and failing distribution and also failing economy of course. And the Winter could be the final straw that break the camels back. These anecdotes could be examples of what I was expecting.The difference lies in how widespread these problems are, and whether they are also bad for the middle class and not only for instance pensioners, that for a long time now have been unable to manage without help from friends and family.

I follow several news sources that specialize in news from Russia (and Ukraine), And to say there are plenty good reports is very strange.We know some things, like Russia has exhausted their national reserve fund, that they make only a fourth the profits on oil exports compared to 5 years ago, and the banks are very strained.But the degree to which the bills aren't paid is camouflaged in so many ways it is very hard to get a good picture, all we know is that it is a problem.

I actually feel really sorry for the career attorneys who make the representations in court on the political apparatus’ behalf,

Don't, they are 100% part of the problem.

No, you can't simulate 1 particle using only 1 particle.

To simulate a single base particle would require millions of atom equivalents.In our universe, to simulate 1 atom, requires millions of atoms.So to simulate our universe perfectly, would require a universe more than a million times more complex, and even then everything in that universe would be used only to simulate our universe.

Elon Musk South Africa. 🤣🤣🤣I don't think he had contact with Epstein when he was a South African.Also by that standard there are no true Americans apart from the native American.

IDK the details about most of those people, but for instance Mette-Marit visited Epstein once, and apart from that only had contact by mail, I don't think that makes her necessarily a pedophile. She's an idiot IMO, and also she has zero power.

Stephen Hawking

Really? He was at a science conference at a neighboring island.You are making a huge guilt by association argument, and that's actually disgusting, and probably the purpose of the way the information is released, because it's to protect Trump and his friends.

Epstein cast an enormous net to try to catch important people, just because the net was cast on you, doesn't mean he actually ever got to you.

Let's wait and see what the evidence shows. If this will ever be properly investigated, which the current administration is doing everything to prevent.

we can’t possibly know what this external universe looks like.

I 100% agree, except what we can know, is that it must be infinitely more complex then this. It's a necessity of math and logic.But what it looks like or what the laws are, we cannot know. Only that it's more complex.

Apart from that, I agree that no matter if this is a simulation or not, it remains our reality that we continuously try to better understand.

Can the EU tax its way to a €2tn budget?

Jump

Buffalox @lemmy.world 1d ago

Eu has a yearly GDP of almost 10 times that, spread over 7 years the EU budget is 70 times the total increase in investment.To finance that completely without debt would requite 1.4% of the economy. Which can either be taxes or other sources.Considering that the plan is to create funds where countries can borrow cheaply for this, I'd say yes EU can most definitely finance this.Also some of the money will be recuperated because production is supposed to be mostly among the countries in the SAFE agreement, meaning that weapons production will be among the participating countries instead of imports from USA.That latter part could mean that the increase in net military cost for the countries involved will be minor in the long run. As more production is at home.
