In text is the superior citing method (Me, 2024)^1.

If you are an expert in this field you know the source by name and year and don't need to interrupt your reading by skipping to the end of the page.

^1: see how annoying this is? And its only 4 lines.

Did he do so?

The last I heard was that he wasn't ruling out sending ground troops to Ukraine – which is what UK is already doing. Mind, that ground troops aren't soldiers per se, but mostly technical personell supporting the usage of weapons, for example repairing equipment and helping with the programming of missiles. But I haven't heard any plans from him – just the classical strategic ambiguity.

But to be honest, I don't follow french politics in detail.

So Russia's worse than Hitlers's Germany?

It also infuriates me if the use 'improving the optimum' or claim something is optimal without the proof, for example 'this is the optimal configuration of a production system' after a comparison of 2–3 different variants.

I find it quiet absurd to even call whatever Putin does an election.

I just checked: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annexation

Since the end of the cold war (1991), only China, Russia and Norway annexed territory. Norway's annexed parts didn't belong to any other state, though. And you can debate if Israel is currently annexing the Gaza strip, but on paper it was Israeli already.

So yes, its Russias and Chinas stance.

Thats only Chinas and Russias stance. Unfortunately the UN has no power at all.

Its mainly touchscreen due to two reasons: 1. Touchscreens are significantly cheaper than analog controls. 2. Touchscreens support the 'publish now, debug later' approach of Tesla and a lot of Chinese car manufacturers.

To be honest: I am not so worried about the app store – the majority doesnt care anyways. Its in my opinion far more important that Apple and Google aren't able to leverage their monopoly into other areas, similar how Microsoft did so with Windows and Internet explorer.

Either ditch iMessage Apple Music, apple TV, etc completly or force apple to give their competitors an equal paying field, meaning no costs to use the app store, no default App and no free promotion.

Either that or just don't directly compete with them. Without Apple Music no one would have complained about it.

But you can't establish a monopoly and leverage it to charge your direct competitors a high fee.
