Die andere Hälfte hält die Klappe und tolleriert es, was kaum besser ist.

Well, you are kinda supporting my argument. This isn't about optimism, but military neccessity. If things get that bad that Russia nukes Warsaw, Paris best response is to nuke Moscow regardless who is in power at that time (and with near certainty Russia would try nuking Warsaw and Paris the same time if it ever came to that).

Of course conventional attacks are a different story, where I share your pessimism that western Europe might decide to do too little too late.

Something like that could be also interesting for a Lemmy frontend to make it easier to share images on instances that have strict upload limits.

It's both an undenyable fact of our near-term future but also a great way to rally community efforts around and build resilient structures that can over time evolve into something more. I personally think its a win, but of course with an unfourtunate background.

It's not so crazy 😅 Ground effect water planes have a long history: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground-effect_vehicle

I think the point of this specific design is mostly to make an all electric plane feasible for medium distance coastal travel. For example from the Spanish main land to the balearic islands.

Seems like a good start on the basic ideas. Maybe some additional thoughts on community prepardness for climate disasters would be useful?

Poland was part of the Warsaw Pact during the cold war... the overall calculus that tactical nukes would be used against an overwhelming invading land army might not have changed, but Paris absolutely would nuke Moscow these days if Warsaw was attacked with strategic nukes. They have little other choice than that if their strategic deterrance is supposed to be worth anything.

As for Tallin... given the geographic location of it, it is highly unlikely that Russia would nuke it.

Ist glaube ich nicht freiwillig, sondern weil die Ukraine die Durchleitung komplett eingestellt hat.

Nein, innerhalb des Euroraums trifft dieser Effekt grade nicht zu, höchstens könnte man spekulieren was gewesen wäre hätte Italien usw. Ihre noch weicheren Währungen behalten.

Und den USA gegenüber gibt es ein massiven Warenhandelsüberschuss, und "Exportweltmeister" Deutschland kam jahrelang auch nicht von ungefähr (und China hat das Model lange kopiert).

Ne, aber Lobbyismus und die korrupte CxU machts möglich 🤷

Nur weil der Währungskurs sich ändert, ändern sich nicht auf einmal die lokalen Preise und Löhne. Kurzfristing kann man also billig ins Ausland verkaufen ohne davon im Inland einen Nachteil zu haben. Das ist was sogenannte PPP Vergleiche abbilden.

Mittel bis langfristig haben die durch den schlechten Wechselkurs verursachten teureren Importe natürlich einem wirtschaftlich dämpfenden Effekt. Aber nur Gesamtwirtschaftlich. Exportorientierte Firmen die selbst überwigend nur lokale Kosten haben, wie z.B. die deutsche Autoindustrie, kann es dabei prima gehen. Was ja so auch die letzten zwei Jahrzehnte in Deutschland der Fall war.

 
 

Weltpolitisch grade sehr aktuell 😓
