you forgot that in NATO the more expensive the better (and the worst is I'm half joking: in France for example there is a high refusal from arms factories to build low cost drones like the ones used in Ukraine because they are not expensive enough and so you can't build only a few of them and makes big money with that...).
So you should makes an gold coat for the F4U if you want it to replace the A10 :P.
France is self sufficient since during WW2 the US tried to force Churchill to stop supporting Charles De Gaulle and instead support a more easily controllable puppet (François Darlan). US was really close to succeed but Darlan's murder forced the US to finally accept against their will De Gaulle.
De Gaulle learned it and after the war he turned the country into anti-US politic with a complete and self sufficient army and a completely autonomous nuclear program ( UK still need US approve to use their nuke).
the speech of Laurent Fabius that tried to turn France into something it is not:
"It's time to receive the peace dividend"
France is historically a warmonger and it's not healthy for a country not to accept what they are so it's time for the whole world to eat baguette. a baguette for you, and for you and a funny mushroom baguette for you because you have been nasty: baguettes for everyone!
you made an huge error: it's not a Gripen but a Rafale... Our french lady has two engines and the special french touch, can't be mistaken with the sweden lady :P
We are not sure the successor of putin will not be worst than him
We have yet to see if russia will stop their hybrid war on EU when the peace is signed in Ukraine. (hybrid war that started waaaayyyy before the Ukrainian invasion, during the middle of the 00')
Trust between russia and all others european countries are really heavily damaged. The east part of the EU will needs decades before they can decide not to veto anything positive to russia. Poland is the new gravity center of EU and still has yet to forgive WW2 invasion and the split of it's country.
We should think as United States of Europe / Not United States of Europe... Being between two power hungry "president" should push EU to move toward federalism but only after Ukraine and Moldova joined (and I'm sorry for Switzerland that will be stucked in the middle of one country: your fault for that 😛 ). Federalism would mean 1 army, 1 diplomatic voice and the end of the mess that we showed to the world during that crysis.
A game made by a chinese company with 100+ devs, that's a big enough company to be forced to have a CCP party agent and so for me to be suspicious about spyware inside the game...
she worked on BG3 and we know from making of and interview that the game was made without boundaries between services, so she spent years with people who have the knowledge to install a windows on a steam deck. Same thing happened with Anna Demetriou who worked as a voice actress on Star Citizen so chance are high that this actress made a friend or two at Larian Studios...
sorry sarcasm won't help you on that one: why OS naming only matter when you decide it matter? Especially when you really don't know what OS is installed on her device (As I said, you don't know the computer knowledge she, her family or her friends has)? What is the link between being a young female actress and the computer knowledge she has?
maybe not her but someone in her entourage... We don't know. And even if she kept SteamOS that doesn't makes her a Linux gamer either. Saying this would mean Playstation gamer are BSD gamers (which seriously I never heard anyone saying it).
If videos and musics are also changed to creative commons than OpenRA can officially integrate them without that CD detection step...
