It's... okay. No USB-C display support is a dealbreaker for me.

I wish ARM wasn't so messy for Linux, with out of date device trees etc. All I want is something like a Macbook Air, but running Linux - long battery life, acceptable performance, an OS that respects me.

It's funny how the French are portrayed as cowards in American popular culture, when in reality the French would've gotten the guillotines out already while the Americans... cower.

As long as Europe isn't a nation, it can't be nationalism. Maybe intrantionalism?

Maybe markets that optimize for capital growth are just a bad way to allocate resources? Why did we decide that return on capital investment is the metric to optimize for, at the expense of everything else?

The EU is both the world's largest importer as well as its largest exporter. Its economic leverage is unmatched.

The threat isn't just military and it's not just coming from Russia. Think about economic extortion from the US and China, how would little Lithuania defend against that? Two of those three little countries have to follow EU law w

What's bad about Mandarin being mandatory in schools? English is mandatory in most European schools, is that colonialism as well or just pragmatism?

The French aren't "the people" of the EU either. There was no EU wide vote, so you cannot claim "the people" want or do not want things. It hasn't just been communicated in the founding charta, but communicated

The EU is us, not national governments. National governments are a relic of old tribal days, we are all Europeans. I do not feel represented by my national government at all, all they do is get in the way. If we can finally get rid of tho

Lithuania doesn't need to negotiate with the EU, they are the EU. The others can't, of course. That's the point! We become one of the predators instead of staying prey like them. > I got news for you, when you're sm

Be kind. Don't be snarky. Converse curiously; don't cross-examine. Edit out swipes. Comments should get more thoughtful and substantive, not less, as a topic gets more divisive. When disagreeing, please reply to the argument inst

Do you think Lithuania can in any way negotiate on anything approaching equal terms with any of those? What you're asking for is effectively to become a client state of one of the above. I notice you didn't address the elephant in

I'm curious - how do you see Europe surviving if not through further integration? How do you envision, say Lithuania standing up to Russia, China or the US? What is your preferred model? All of us staying in little insignificant countr

I did not write the Genocide Convention, nor am I an expert to judge whether it applies or not. The experts, however, say it does. To call stealing kids from their parents "evacuating orphans" shows you, too, are supportive of gen
