Which I'm sure are definitely not of lower quality with an increased ratio of duds produced by a more war-centric economy that's ultimately degrading their society even further.
It's not a simple one to one. Everyone's use case and experience is different. Don't get me wrong, I'm all in on the FOSS train and I don't approve of Microsoft's direction with Windows but it's still a consistently hassle-free experience compared to Linux for people who just don't wanna deal with distros, terminals, repositories or compatibility layers.
The first paragraph sums it pretty accurately. We conceded Chechnya, we conceded Georgia, we conceded Crimea and now he's after the entirety of Ukraine. He. Will. Not. Stop until all former Soviet territories are under Russia again. Sound familiar?
I would hardly call it "losing badly" when Ukraine, despite months of being deprived of U.S aid and rationing their ammunition, is still preventing any major breakthrough, still holding the vast majority of country's territory and inflicting major casualties for every inch of land Russia manages to grab. This war is far from over.

Of course Europe should stop relying on U.S military especially when it's in danger of once again falling under the control of Putin's favourite useful orange idiot.
Within the context of this single aid package, of course Ukraine is not going to be winning anything, other than perhaps the objective of stabilizing their frontline situation. Hopefully this is a return to form after too many months of deliberate stalling by Putin's wing of the GOP.
Which by all rights it is... annexation not withstanding.
