Just to make it clear, the second part was a joke.

About the other, relatives actually got 6 chickens. The main investment is time and land, and occasionally a trip to the vet. Given the US prices… if you eat eggs regularly and don’t want to miss it then I’d assume it’s cheaper, would have to ask for a details myself though (they jokingly said once they would save a ton in the US right now). It heavily depends on outside factors though (less land, dangers = more expensive).

The journey might take you across scary CLI land in case your GUI broke once again.

Building a small den to hold 2 to 4 chickens is cheaper in the long run.

For the city: Renting a parking spot and turning an old junker into a chicken den is also probably cheaper. Just make sure to secure it against egg thiefs.

I keep wondering how much of his behaviour has to do with his estranged kids telling him he’s a dick as well as his Ketamine abuse.

Lol definitely won’t, they’re super anti-EV after all. I mean, they even want to get rid of all wind power plants. xD

And my 48 horsepower fuck machine!

If they screw shit up too much there are already the nerdiest of nerds working on decentralized wireless networks. They’d be slow is heck, but I heard many people prefer web 1.0 over todays’ bloated crap anyway.

Europe won’t do a thing with these initiatives, at least not in any official manner (what they can do though is to ensure EU web hosters of this stuff aren’t feeling the pressure). They’ve enough to do restructuring their economy and military, all the while also dealing with war and fascism from the east. They won’t risk Trump having another tamper tantrum, at least not before the EU and its allies are widely decoupled from the US economy.

I wonder what they used for that. Perhaps Ardour.

If you count syrup, then yes.

Could make it f2fs, but I’d bet Windows doesn’t support that.

That already shifted since 2022, in eastern European countries even since 2014. Granted that these things take time, although companies like Rheinmetall are currently getting investments like hell to build production lines quickly.

In general EU military usually gets sold as too weak for a multitude of reasons. We indeed cut too much investment in the national militaries for too long, however European arms manufacturers are going strong. There’s also the general notion especially in western Europe (and especially in Germany) of not wanting to be seen militaristic but humanistic, which is generally a good thing until someone from the outside tries to take advantage through military force (among other things).

That said, Poland now got a lot of influence in Brussels regarding EU military politics, as other nations had to admit they were right about Russia and their own military strategy all along. And they’re rather blunt about what’s necessary as far as I know.

This comic aged poorly.

Indeed. Meanwhile Europe, despite having a war at its doorstep, is not just holding all the cards but even gets stronger by all of this. Money and assets are getting transferred out of the US into Europe and its allies as they’re more trustworthy and stable, there’s a social movement towards EU (or generally non-US) products, a wave of EU patriotism, independence of nonsensical economical US ideas, countries like Canada shifting their trading partnerships to EU and Asia, braindrain towards the EU, pushes towards a unified EU military (who, combined, would be 2.6 million soldiers strong)…

Seriously, his slogan should’ve said “Make Europe great again”.

You clearly never were the victim back in those days. Neither do you realize this approach doesn’t work on the modern web even in the slightest, unless you want the basics of both enlightenment and therefore science and democracy crumbling down even faster.

Anarchism is never an answer, it’s usually willful ignorance about there being any problems.

I guess they weren’t picked as they don’t have official apps. Most people look for those first.

And its uselessness has been proven for years now. But not like anyone cares, instead pupils now get awful laptops (that like to catch fire) full of surveillance software. Great times.

Not to mention it lacks any (ethical) monetization options. And the app is absolutely rudimentary, lacking even basic functionality.

Framasoft made it clear they don’t want to make it a Youtube alternative though, however it could be through plugins. So there’d have to be a company or cooperative using it as a base to build upon, which is actually realistic. Especially European ones; not because Asia wouldn’t be interested in being more independent on the US as well, but because Framasoft is from France and Europe actively works towards this goal anyway with lots of money behind it.
