Fuck Sony for making Europe pay for America’s stupidy. And Microsoft, I think they’re doing it too.

What does this even do ?

You know what else is standard? strcmp in C with user input.

If you know you know.

The only thing emacs is missing is a text editor

How dare you. I’m sending the church of emacs after your ass.

You’re not reading what people tell you completely. The UK have overseas territories, the netherlands, italy, spain, and several more.

And we need power projection to protect our sea trade like the bab el mandeb strait, the Suez strait, and more. The rafale having a naval variant didn’t stop many overseas countries without airplane carriers from choosing it with its non-naval capabilities.

And the rafale is better. It sells better, too, exports better, has better dogfighting capabilities, etc…

And once again, not only does Europe need to have aircraft carriers – it’s probably cheaper than to build airstrips on every single rock out there and station maintenance facilities on them all, but it’s needed to export the planes. India has aircraft carriers and bought rafales, and with rising tensions in the pacific and Indian oceans, there is a lot of money to be made here.

Even the US need to export planes to pay for their jet costs, why should we hamstrung ourselves ?

And also, why should we rely on the US to free up the bab el-mandeb strait ? Have you seen how the US reacted to that ? I’m done licking facist balls, let’s build 10 European aircraft carriers, and I don’t give a flying fuck who rides them.

Absolutely. I think this is another french geopolitical wisdom moment germany had too much ego to acknowledge.

The rafale has a navalisable variant and is quite affordable and capable, compared to many offerings, including american ones.

Even if you ignore both the operating and the in-construction French airplane carriers, it’s an interesting export selling point. Lots of people in the pacific and the Indian oceans have airplane carriers or might end up wanting one.

What’s even the point of a common next-gen fighter jet if you compromise on such a core feature on development costs grounds alone ?

Germany is also trying to claim the entire ownership of the project and ignoring the french requirements, like navalisation.

They even tried to buy out Dassault, of all things…

Let’s goooo

Haven’t had a personal windows machine at my place in 10+ years!

With a risk of falling hard drives and such? I’m not doing that…

I have killed two laptops by stepping on them. Is this a sign?

The laptop could have setup to not sleep on close and could have been laying closed, screen on the ground. Also it would have provided completely unrestricted airflow to the fan…

On carpet 😬

It’s the very least France should do when the US puts exorbitant import tariffs on tons of french goods.

In fact, I find them subservient to the US still.

Am I only one who immediately loses respect for hashtag abusers?
