I mean if China wants to spend 17 billion euros on building a giant ring, let them???

I’m all for science but I think we have bigger concerns right now then smashing particles together.

I’ve used a pinephone pro with arch and postmarket.

It works, but you really have to love linux to use it as a daily driver.

My banking app (bunq) worked using way droid.

It always the farmers, biggest supporters of fascism.

The best and cheapest way to improve European rail is just have a single app/website that shows timetables and allows you to order tickets.

Based on Fedora, run by Red Hat, an American company.

Well if the EU gets nukes i would imagine there would be a clause that allows for a return strike wihout voting and only a first strike being banned completely or require voting.

Since there are only minutes to launch a return strike voting over it is completely pointless.

It would be best if there was an EU wide nuclear program. Not a nuclear sharing program but a nuclear program.

If this is impossible for whatever reason it is up to the member states to develop their own programs.

Russia would never have invaded if Ukraine kept their nukes.

But you can make this argument for anything that is used to make rich people richer. Even something as basic as pen and paper is used everyday to make rich people richer.

Why attack the technology if its the rich people you are against and not the technology itself.

No?

Anyone can run an AI even on the weakest hardware there are plenty of small open models for this.

Training an AI requires very strong hardware, however this is not an impossible hurdle as the models on hugging face show.

All the calculations could be done before hand and stored and then the only thing left in the delayed draw is to set the buffer.

I haven’t looked at the code yet so not sure how much if any it will save though.

A random suggestion would be to draw to multiple canvases, and use a CSS animation for the delay.

Also not sure if you are already doing this but it might be more peformant to use the raw buffer instead of draw functions.

Alternatively you could look into webgpu, it is ment for these kind of things.

Here is the source (in dutch):

Het veranderen van de naam van het ministerie van Veiligheid en Justitie in Justitie en Veiligheid kost ruim 2 miljoen euro. Dat gaat onder meer op aan het aanpassen van de e-mailadressen van de medewerkers.

Of the eight demonstrators who showed up in Amsterdam, five were Dutch and two were Russian. The identity of one remains unverified by the Kyiv Independent.

“Ukraine is evil for dutch taxpayers”

Ukraine might be the most efficient user of taxpayer money considering we spent 2 million euros renaming the “ministry of safety and justice” into “ministry of justice and safety”

Saying this as a dutch taxpayers im happy when it gets spend on helping Ukraine.

(Also propagandists like to think that when x amout of money is being send to Ukraine its train cars full of cash, when in fact its military equipment)

Fair enough, it really depends on how you count. I grouped all variants under a single tank, if you count each variant differently then the number will be far greater indeed.

From what i can find T-80 is not in active service with any EU country and im really quite surprised M48’s are still used in active service.

What countries are included in “Europe”?

As far as i know there are currently 6 tanks in the EU in active service.

Leopard 2 (Germany) Leclerc (France) M1 Abrams (United States) K2 Black Panther (South Korea) T-72 (Soviet Union) C1 Ariete (Italy)

Good stuff, reaming by buying foreign equipment is only kicking the can down the line.

Investing into defense industry that can build new weapons is far stronger then temporarily buying weapons.

I don’t use mint so this might be blatantly incorrect but after a bit of searching on mint’s release schedule I would assume gimp 3.0 will arrive with the 22.2 or 22.3 version. With 22.2 expected at middle 2025 and 22.3 at start 2026.

Well a pro-trump anti-eu politician probably sees little reason to change to european/foss

How about Polish nukes on Polish soil? Trump is sooner going to launch a nuke at Warsaw then his buddy Putin in Moscow.
