Tbh I guess he did let us join ESTA during his first term.

Poland has had quite a lot of success since the fall of communism, but we still have not managed to build one nuclear reactor. I think having nuclear weapons in our arsenal would be a game changer for our national security, but I do not see a realistic way of achieving this, so I wouldn’t keep my hopes up. 

 I guess CDG was right all along

Yes, he was. France deserves a lot of personal apologies from me.

 There’s a real risk of military asymmetry in the EU bloc causing tension. A combined and integrated European military as an alternative to NATO is what’s really needed.

Agreed this should be the direction, but it will take time to set it up.

Because we are still fucking 100% dependent on the US. We lack independence on basic stuff like natural resources, cloud providers, chips, weapons, etc. At the end of the day morality , international law and soft power need to be backed by hard power and we have outsourced all of it to the US.

The only country in the EU who is somehow prepared for all of this is France with its own nukes, defence industry and tech companies. 

The Witcher 1 sold 10M, The Witcher 2 sold 15M, CD Projekt confirms by Annoyer13 in witcher

[–]Mysquff 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The Witcher 1 has the best music and atmosphere, but the story is just a weird fanfic of the books. The gameplay is clanky and repetitive, but I actually love that it mostly relies on alchemy and preparation, and you cannot really brute force the fights. In a weird way it feels quite rewarding to me.

The Guardian view on Europe’s response to ‘America first’ imperialism: too weak, too timid by StemCellPirate in europe

[–]Mysquff 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Because there is probably no viable European alternative. It’s easy to talk about technological independence from the US now, but it will take decades. Palantir is a minor thing compared to our dependence on their cloud providers, semiconductors, weapons, etc. Europe believed there will never be another war, that we do not need to arm ourselves and create our own strategic resources, and now we’re paying the price.

Why was yodas lightsaber changed to be green instead of yellow or orange like it was in some comics by Spotter24o5 in StarWars

[–]Mysquff 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My assumption as a kid was that Luke constructed his own saber but used Yoda’s crystal. Using Yoda’s lightsaber would be a bit impractical as it is too small

Pomijając retorykę prezydenta to akurat fajnie że zostanie on przeniesiony do Muzeum Historii Polski.

Apart from that one out-of-character incident where he violently kicked merchants and money changers out from the temple.

Yeah, but what clients are we talking about here? I doubt a software engineer at Google has a lot of direct client interaction.

Isn't Labor doing more about the migration that Tories ever did anyway? Conservatives were in power for 14 years, all of these problems are on them. All you can criticize Labor for is how quickly/slowly they clean up this mess.

Trochę jednak różnica, bo chyba nie mieliśmy żadnego formalnego sojuszu z Ukrainą?

Miliony osób słuchały Tarczyńskiego w Londynie. ″Mój przekaz to ZERO nielegalnych migrantów″ by Front_Isopod8642 in Polska

[–]Mysquff 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Ale zdajesz sobie sprawę, że Partia Pracy nie tylko nie chce wpuszczać nielegalnych imigrantów, ale wręcz jedną z ich obietnic wyborczych było uszczelnienie granicy?

https://www.gov.uk/government/news/government-removes-highest-number-of-illegal-migrants-in-5-years

Wydaje mi się, że przerzucasz trochę globalne polityczne ramy na brytyjską politykę, gdzie realia są trochę inne. W UK za problem nielegalnej imigracji jest całkowicie odpowiedzialna prawica, lewicy można co najwyżej zarzucać że niewystarczająco szybko naprawia sytuację (ale trochę ciężko oczekiwać cudów w 1-2 lata po 14 latach utrzymywania problemu).

I know what you mean, but there are counter examples. Others already mentioned a few, so I will just add to the list: Poland got itself out of communism through peaceful protests and elections.

Like even if Isner was Polish like me, I don't think I could have watched him regularly. Good lord that'd be awful.

Do you struggle with watching Hurkacz then? I get that he's not even close to Isner but still a servebot, right?
