Europe will probably respond, but it doesn’t have to use the exact same coin.

No need to do anything to Putin, everyone. Trump will punish him. Just two more weeks, you’ll see. /s

Russia can totally win. A peace of compromise, full of territorial concessions, lack of reparations or security guarantees… any of these things are a victory for Russia and a disastrous defeat for Ukraine and Europe.

Russia can absolutely win if serious measures are not taken very decisively. We are on a precipice.

That’s curious! I haven’t seen this before. It’s still talking about and showing a picture of Danish European Affairs Minister Marie Bjerre for me.

Must be a Lemmy glitch of some sort. Lemmy glitch of some sort. glitch of some sort. glitch of some sort. (:P)

Did you comment in the wrong thread? Am I missing a parallel?

Thanks for the tip regarding Fossify, they do seem to have a nice clean set of apps!

We should ask the Kremlin.

Meh. He only had $23.50 in his account.

You guys get to wank off at all? You’re wank billionaires, you ingrates! I never get any time for it with my girlfriend always demanding sex.

Don’t be ridiculous. Now back to those dog-powered props,…

I’m all for the “SLEEP 8 HOURS” bit though. I need more of that in my life.

There’s a region around the handle where you can grab it to slide left-right but also be scrolling the page up and down, defeating the attempt to move the finger out of the way.

The first time I tried it I kept hitting that region, but I see now that with a bit more precision you can avoid the up-down segment.

Also, having the handle on the middle of the picture instead of underneath is awful on mobile where you can’t see anything because of your own finger.

You had one job.

You take out a third of our airforce? Haha! Watch as its place is taken by TWO remaining thirds!

Yes. Doesn’t mean it’s a bad strategy.

This is not a one-round game. Elections happen repeatedly. If you show someone you will punish them for bad behavior even at cost to yourself, it might teach them to change their ways. On the other hand, always minimizing your losses in the current round (i.e. having no memory or vision) makes you a perfectly predictable and exploitable player.

What we’re talking about is a game between two players: democrats and their potential voters. It is totally a valid strategy in game theory to punish the other player when they’re not cooperating. If you’re always cooperating even when your opponent (i.e. your preferred political party) isn’t, you’re just encouraging them to continue to not cooperate.

That’s not how it works. Using that logic voting for Himmler would be the right thing to do because at least they’re one step less awful than Hitler. Fucking demand that Himmler change his ways or a better candidate is allowed to run.

A lot of countries have political theater instead of actual politics, but the US is really deep into it.
