The sad part is that in Europe on Amazon the Gigabyte store sells RX 9070 XT for 1150€. That’s absolutely grotesque. Mind you this card is supposed to be 550$ before tax, after tax it shouldn’t be more expensive than 650€ and Gigabyte is charging 80% on top of that. Who needs scalpers with businesses like that.

Problem is trust is lost instantly and won over time.

At this stage I trust the UK and France more than I trust the US. Not to mention the security implications that Trump is a crony of Putin.

He also lifted all restrictions and sanctions on the violent settlers imposed by Biden. So he is definitely favouring one side.

And yet, here we are.

I am not sure I understand your point. I am not a huge fan of China but the US hit rock bottom for me.

And mind you here the US is the one who is talking shit about other countries all the time, not China. So yes, I have no sympathy for a country electing an obviously senile person and turning this senile person into a cult.

The EU should sign a trade agreement with Canada and Mexico and we should strengthen our economic and military cooperation. Screw the orange boys.

To be honest all those tariffs even when lifted will make a lot of people simply avoid American products, and you know people change habits and will have a long lasting effect on your economy.

Which I think is good.

To be honest right now China has more legs than the US. The US has been on the wrong side of history for way too long.

Ah yes, imagine you being the subject of this level of policing and AI profiling. Would you feel well?

Regarding libraries, this is such a socialist idea, that enriches society and educates the people. I wonder why no one thought to defund them, because think of the lost profits for companies like Amazon, etc. /s
