It depends on what victory is and what defeat is. You can’t dictate terms of your victory to people who don’t understand them and don’t coordinate with each other as a whole entity. You also sometimes are not prepared to engage in full-blown genocide. And getting the bombs to the place may cost you much more than for those people to get their AKs. And bombs don’t control territory. And you may be willing to spend some amount of lives, and they may be willing to spend a different amount of lives.
It’s like Cologne/Köln, doesn’t make sense as a point of contention.
Would be suspicious days before his reelection.
and the country where 88% of the voters reelected him…
I know many people who didn’t, a few I suspect and literally zero who would admit voting for him.
The entire city of Moscow is now on lockdown.
Only public places.
That is utterly ridiculous. Literally worthy of ridicule.
I think you’re the only thing here worth of ridicule.
The pleasant and knight could see each other. They had to be within a few yards of each other. The US government could take you out from an airplane 10 miles up and you would just end without knowing it was coming.
A cat and a mouse too, but I haven’t head of a mouse killing a cat.
The rest of us would like to have it over and get on with our lives.
That’s a good point, wasted enough of my time on a modern equivalent of that peasant.
Doesn’t have to be the same. The distance from Earth to the Moon is not the same order of magnitude as the distance from the Moon to the Sun, but for many purposes could as well be.
That’s like saying perpetual war isn’t sustainable and you have to make peace. Formally true, but in practice:
Your country (a developed one, with virtually universal literacy, functional school education, water and electricity everywhere, universities, internet, etc) stops growing in population.
Some another country (with basically nothing except for dirt and dirt-poor people who mostly can’t read, sometimes burn witches and kill infidels) doesn’t fscking stop.
Having 0-2 happy children vs having 8-12 children running around dirty, hungry and naked.
Yup. People naturally choose the former if they can, but a country with fewer people is weaker and may become poorer.
So it’s a government’s job to make it affordable to have children.
This part of reality is explained best via logic which may seem a bit fascist, but it does exist. It’s not a good thing to be eaten.
For some this would make sense, but I just can’t use Macs, if presented with choice I’d choose Gnome.
Still it’s sad, with Gnome 2 and even KDE 4 (KDE 3 obviously) being amazing and definitely better than Windows or MacOS, and I have used them daily so I’m not imagining things.
No, it was absolutely the same. Professional soldiers and knights with good gear and lifetime experience would easily massacre any amateur force and they regularly did.
It was less about technology (though a piece of that gear would cost a few villages with serfs, so technology too) and more about experience, but that’s the case now as well.
Good for you, some day you’ll realize that you can write anything on the Web not making it one inch closer to the reality
Taking up arms against the government has two possible outcomes.
Dunno, my grand-grandparents ended up old Bolsheviks with party membership since 1919.
You are one person with a small number of consumer firearms. The government can show up with a virtually unlimited number of people, with bigger guns, and weapons up to and including tanks, helicopters, and precision guided bombs.
Which is why taking up arms against the government should be approached like an engineering task and not like some impulsive action from Hollywood movies. But it sometimes happens.
And what you are saying wasn’t very different even in 14xx-s, to be frank.
A physical keyboard adds an additional point of failure on your device as well.
A hercon keyboard, like in old military stuff, will last far longer than any touchscreen. Its feedback is weaker than for most keyboards, but still better than any touchscreen.
If we are choosing between a touchscreen alone and a touchscreen plus keyboard, then yeah, only this isn’t a fair comparison.
A fair one would be keyboard vs touchscreen.
Might not be your use case, but a vast majority of the world uses it.
The breakthrough in ergonomics caused by mass production of stuff for people of different metrics and problems and everything during WWII was entirely about this sentence being wrong.
A good interface is not for “the majority” or for “the average user”, it’s customizable for all the extremes, so for every user with just a bit of initial effort.
Literally used in official government recruitment ads.
I have bad news if you can talk to ads
There are plenty of people using it, with inertia and Fedora being a thing. Seemingly even more than around 2012 when actually encountering people consciously using it was unusual, but everybody would talk how Gnome 2 was better, and it was.
Define “design”, because there are some choices which I agree with as well. But mostly that’s about appearance (and the flattening of stuff is making it worse, and it all could be more compact).
It’s fine if you don’t like it but there’s no need to bash clear design choices.
As I’ve already said, I was talking about things they copy senselessly. Like buttons in titlebars and customization requiring you to use Google because of like 4 separate apps for setting up the same thing.
Cinnamon (set up similarly to vanilla Gnome 3, but without overview lagging and customization being PITA) is the mainstream DE I’ve used for the longest period of time.
