Old people always ask: are your legs broken?

It's takeaway. You go there, and you take it away. Want a butler, then pay the wages!

Why does he always carry around this "high profile man" thing? He's nobody AFAIK. Last time it was something about "young gun tapped for greatness" or some nonsense. He's at best an amateurish Daryl Summers hopeful.

So it was a dick move. I could have guessed.

No, I think you're wrong. A lot of countries try to make a big deal of sovereignty as a recommendation for peace. The US buys into that logic. It's been proven repeatedly. In a way, they see borders as almost sacred.

It's the same as they've proven not to want to use nuclear weapons. Despite the empire based logic leaking into some factors of US activities they still avoid WMDs and keep stepping back from the brink.

You can't seriously think the other countries being mentioned are pushing any such agenda. Most mentioned are disrespecting the sovereignty of their neighbours and building up on international activity to harm efforts for international peace.

The US even tried everything to embrace China and Russia before this last decade of absolute bullshit from those countries.

The US's biggest problem is actually getting involved because of previous promises. They made no promises in Myanmar, and look how that shitshow went down with China as an ally.

I can't buy this China is an alternative military superpower idea. They never prove to do anything other than end up in a lifelong dispute with every other nation that gets in their way. Look at how Hong Kong panned out. That was disrespectful as hell! I know who the assholes are.

Yeah, I don't get Cuba. That's a WTF. To me, the best way not to put Cuba in collusion with your enemies is to give it all the concessions they need, and just drop all the sanctions. Maybe I'm wrong and they're planning on being the ultimate backdoor rogue state, but it just doesn't seem like it.

Every day you resist urges, and it's the establishment of freewill that put you on a path.

Also, fundamentally they're wrong. People acquire knowledge. They learn freewill is possible. Many attempt it in everyday life.

Therefore, freewill is its own deterministic event, and in being concrete it breaks the loop of determinism despite the belief it's all determinism. Basically determinism confounds itself by allowing freewill to be entertained in deterministic beings - oops.

People throw out guesses, hunches, preferences, and numerous freewill events because freewill was repeatedly mentioned.

Going into disasters and it being a disaster are the same thing. I'm not irresolute on the matter, but clearer identification of wrongdoing shouldn't involve a number of villains destabilizing everything.

Ho Chi Minh, had a clear mandate before the US entered, and should have been welcome to expel the French (who allied with Japan). Now, sovereignty is resolved and all borders and diplomacy are entirely respected by the US. They're practically an ally these days. The US performed like absolute crap in the war, but now they encourage the sovereignty of the Vietnamese people.

Does China learn lessons like that? Ho Chi Minh's cadre also had to say no to China, and if it wasn't for Russia that could have ended worse. And it's still not resolved. China barely understands foreign sovereignty.

(Ahh, I don't want to stick up for the US position!)

As aggressive as the US is, they don't regularly traipse over their own neighbour's borders to attack them.

China on the other hand, Tibet, India, Vietnam, ... and most of their disputes aren't even settled or beyond dispute yet.

Verdict, China can't manage stable borders and do away with further disputes.

Point out a country that the US has hostilities with that isn't destabilizing or in a border dispute?

(Disclaimer, we don't have to like America to point out the obvious.)

It's funny because people describe PowerShell as powerful, but really they mean it's also a hammer to mash everything with. "Powerfull!"

Seems like lack of imagination to me. The minute people get money - in their minds - it doesn't have anything to do with anyone else anymore. If more people, with money, had ideas involving other people then we wouldn't have this greedy mess we have now.

I'm always thinking about who can do what when I have some money, but it turns out to be a rare trait among people with more money than ideas. It doesn't matter how much money I have there's always a way to include people as intended recipients.

It's better to find real people rather than some faceless corporation too. You couldn't sell me a Rolex or an Apple watch. Also, I would employ an accountant long before taking advice from a corporate fund manager.

Rich people strike me as exceedingly dull.

I had the same outcome with my HP 2 in 1, with one minor problem. I have to log in via keyboard because there's no virtual keyboard option for the log in with the Fedora distro I used.

Same guy. I don't see anyone different.
