Well, the last time Europe was super unstable was WW2 where they burnt the whole thing down by themselves. That led to the US ascension. The USA would be super happy for another chance like that.

This read like some local region scheme to boost development. I still think it's a better plan to establish a central fund for open sources and maybe even run a bureaucracy unit just dedicated to developing softwares for the public.

pfff, with how much money is spent on cultural war propaganda, the right question would be "why not"

If you are seriously worried about privacy you could always use open source stuff. Some hardware from China has compatibility with open source firmware cause they're built out of those projects. The software risk from that stuff is about as high as shit from anywhere else.

The anime is catching up to the manga so quickly. Kinda expected more for the fights this season though.

Is this just a kind of inflation/recession write off for the EU and USA at this point? oh, our economy is not doing so great, we are short by X% of development from project, let's just write that off as 'aids' to Ukraine/Israel

I'm still not sure about the channel owner politics. However this is infinity better than the normal garbage liberal YouTube history channels.

I remember people talking about a HSR system linking the three biggest cities in Texas way back in 2010s. They couldn't even raise enough support to finish the research for the placement of the train stops. Not sure this will even get pass that.

That's also a trick in diplomacy. You want to choose the most abhorrent location to negotiate with your enemies to distract them from the conversation. That way you can sneak more shit under the radar.
