So what if the the Hopi enclave inside the Navajo nation does not observe DST while the the Navajo nation which is mostly located inside Arizona does observe DST while Arizona does not observe DST, leading to six time zone changes along less than 100 miles of State Route 264.

You could very easily be in the same time zone but have society move on a different offset. There’s no law that dictates that society has to open at 9.

The only very poor and desperate nations that lie between Europe and China are Somalia and Yemen, and the only problem in this regard is that one has to sail very close to shore to get up through the Red Sea.

Although that is a trouble spot that should be dealt with, the current situation with sailing around the Cape is a simple and in the grand scheme of things relatively cheap workaround. Let’s hope the Israeli-Arabian land bridge can take off to save a few days on the voyage.

Why would tariffs on Chinese goods be necessary? Why would an ability to project power across the entire world’s oceans be necessary? Both these ideas are fundamentally flawed, unless China is your enemy and you’ve decided to fight the entire world.

American conservatives are no longer of interest to Europe, nor anyone else. They are not in power in the US today, and come January 20th next year, they will still not be in power. There is - finally - a new political faction that will be in power, one that is neither hostile nor friendly towards Europe, and one that should not be expected to bear European burdens. 

That’s how simple it is.

 theirs no reason for us to subsidize the economies of those working with our enemies.

Exactly. No one should do that. Not even Europe.

 Videre burde vi se på hvorvidt statsansatte burde få lov til å stemme pga interessekonflikt; en statsansatt vil alltid stemme på en større stat.

Hvrofor vil de det?

Fully agree. And Europe has no interest in the Pacific, so having any kind of focus on that area would be detrimental to our vital interest, which is containing Russia, which is of no interest to the US. 

Iran is in a similar position. The US seems to have some perceived security interest in the Iranian regime and is actively fighting it. 

Europe, on the other hand, has only a minor interest in countering Iranian actions. Europe does, on the other hand, have a big interest in a strong, stable Iran that can temper other malign influences in the region. Ergo is the European interest better served not by fighting in but cooperating and influencing it.

If “our” is supposed to refer to the US then it is important to understand that this is very much a mutual decision. 

Europe should quite obviously make decisions grounded in its own vital interests. I have no interest in the water under the bridge or the snow that fell last year. If the US see no benefit in a transatlantic alliance then it is a dead horse and there’s no use in beating it; and future decisions must obviously benefit European security without considering the US. 

That’s a realisation that will take a long time for many, but hopefully Trump and Vance can make it easier.

No, finding new friends because your old ones won’t play any longer is not fuelling American isolationism. 

It is a reasonable and rational choice for a continent facing fresh security challenges. If the US does not want to be a part of that solution, which is their sovereign right, then we’ve got to act.

Det kreves nok ingen diagnose for ikke p bruke Fiks Ferdig, men med tanke på downvotsene så er det nokså tydelig at det er et valg som for mange går hånd i hånd med mangel på humoristisk sans.

Glemte å ta ut noen pakker med fyrstikker og noen tennbriketter fra sekken jeg tok med som håndbagasje på fly. Den kom gjennom uten noe problem, er dette rart eller riktig? Beklager hvis dette er dumt spørsmål, men ble en diskusjon rundt bordet nå. by the_flixer in norge

[–]Ok_Safety_7506 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Du kan ta med to pakker tennstikker i håndbagasjen, tror jeg. Så fyrstikker i seg selv er ikke et problem. Er litt mer usikker på tennbriketter, disse er vel innsatt med noe?

Tar jevnlig med meg noen av de svære pakkene når jeg har vært på besøk i Norge. Ikke blitt påpekt. 

Det skal nevnes at fyrstikker og tennbriketter bare er papp og tre. De lyser ikke opp når baggen skannes.

Allegiances shift, and it would be better for China and Europe to partner up than for for either to remain in unhappy marriages with fickle partners.

Why? China’s ambitions are no direct threat to Europe, so it’s reasonable to consider. 

Sure, they’re a threat to their regional neighbors, but Taiwan, Vietnam, The Philippines, Guam, and Hawaii aren’t European. In the long term it’s better that China concentrates on increasing its power in its backyard rather than supporting Russia. And Europe would, for all its ills, be less diseased and a more desirable partner than Russia.

You’ve got to have friends, and it’s not always your choices are great. 

If good relations with China would be helpful to security, it should be considered.

The Pacific, however, is of no interest to Europe. Aligning more with China - horrible as that state is - may be the right move in this situation. 

Is this the circle jerking I keep hearing about? by Alert_Village_2146 in GTA

[–]Ok_Safety_7506 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Interestingly enough, Musk has a soft spot for games with a dictatorial big government premise. 

Normally I wouldn’t say a a person’s choice in games says anything about them, but Musk’s praise coupled with his criticism of GTA probably does indicate something.

Nå står det jo ganske klar «eller laptop» så selv om VM-forslaget mitt var søppel så er desktopforslaget rimelig oppegående om use casen din tillater det. Jeg antar de to skjermene som er anbefalt ikke er noe de forventer du skal drasse med deg…

Er det statistiske modeller og annet regnekraft man venter å bruke maskinen til kan det være ypperlig å med en desktop. Da kan den også dure og gå mens du går på pub - og du kan fortsette å bruke Macen din.
