  • All of those companies should work together to create one Linux-based OS.

    Majority on your list are using a de-googled Android OS or have some Linux based alternative as an offer. Issue with Linux is: it’s amazing, yet still far away from mass adoption.

    To get there we have to create European based open OS that everyone adopts for their non-us tech phones. With popularity and distribution more major apps will be available directly and not through work arounds (e.g. open app stores, etc). It’s also a huge f*** you to American oligarchs if Europen tech companies are coming together to show their strength.




  • Since Ariel Sharon, conservative ideologies have been deeply ingrained in Israeli politics, and Netanyahu’s resignation may not bring about a fundamental shift in this longstanding trend.

    The political landscape has been characterized by continuity, and despite changes in leadership, the core ideologies often persist. The implications for the lives of Israelis and Palestinians might not undergo a substantial transformation.

    Obligatory: Fuck Hamas and Netanyahu









  • I understand your point, but I respectfully disagree. An internal strife alone doesn’t necessarily lead to military action.

    A military conflict involving Taiwan would have global implications, affecting regional stability and the world economy. Xi is fully aware of that and knows that his political power extends only as far as his economy remains stable. Looking at the last BRICS meeting, we see that China is eager to compensate for any economic embargoes with a stable structure and demand from its partners – which, as of today, is still a work in progress.

    Furthermore, the Ukrainian war has shown, the West can swiftly mitigate major impacts on its economy (see Germany moving completely away from gas exports from Russia). China is aware of that too and knows that while devastating, the west will work closely together to compensate such an economic distaster and cut ties with China completly.

    While the current situation requires vigilance and preparation for the worst, we can at least see that China remains in absolute need of its Western allies, and a military intervention would be a complete disaster, even for Xi.

    That’s likely why he’s consolidating power by eliminating political opponents and critics, but history has shown that being blinded by power, as Putin is in the case of Ukraine, leads to devastation.
