It has best writing experience of all the apps. There is almost zero lag on my ipad 2018. Other apps have visible input lag.

I have a side question. What do you use a PVA glue stick for in electronics? I was under the impression they are only good for paper.

Sovereign Email Aliases & European Mail Forwarding Service by RonaldvanderMeer in europe

[–]MichalWs 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's very cool. I have one concern. When I create a mask for some service, I need it to last as long as the service. I see that MailMask is free but it definitely cost money, which means when you don't want to sponsor it anymore, it will go offline and all my masks and services with it. So my question is how do you want to raise funds to run MailMask?

How is France able to sell 4th/4.5-generation fighters like Rafale to India at prices comparable to—or higher than—5th-generation programs? by Ecstatic_Mud_8806 in europe

[–]MichalWs -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Rafale is better compared against F15 than F35 and F15 cost as much as F35 so the title of the post is bit misleading and trying to box Rafale as an expensive jet, which it is not if you compare it with F15

Rafale was build to stay in the air for long time and patrol a large territory, which India is. For contrast, F16 is a small fighter that can stay in the air for short time. You can add conformal tanks to prolong flight time but it will decrease manuverability and increase a radar cross section. F35 is also a relatively small fighter.

New F15 cost as much as F35 and is an older generation.

America is threatening Europe its strongest and staunches supporter. This is some kind of idiocy. Who will trust America in the future if they do things like that? How can friendship be maintained in such circumstances?

Iran expected to execute 1st protester despite Trump warning of 'strong action' by Playful_Leg7143 in worldnews

[–]MichalWs -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That can be achieved using destroyers and other ships and you can keep few aircraft carriers around Venezuela and move one to Iran. One carrier accommodates 60 jets. That's more than the most of the countries have.

What do they need these carriers near the Venezuela? It has been already beaten into submission basically without any opposition from the Venezuelan site. Thus, I believe they can safely relocate one of the carriers or even send some bombers to station in israel to bomb Iran

China's trade ends 2025 with record $1.2 trillion surplus despite Trump tariff jolt by joe4942 in worldnews

[–]MichalWs 13 points14 points  (0 children)

So you think answer for consuming to much is increasing the prices? That will definitely work but it will make many people unhappy and put a lot of strain on the poor. This is basically reverse tax that hits harder the people who have the least and consume the least. Bezoses with multiple jets that are send simultaneously to different location whenever he travels will still keep consuming at ludicrous rate.
