The airframes are at the end of their life, Germany is getting F-35s specifically to replace the ageing Tornados as well.

A history of joint airplane development.

As I said, there are some concerns, but no, there is no out-right "kill switch" or any remote control capability.

Really the biggest risk is the US withholding future software updates for a while, forcing operators to implement their own software packages for those the US will no longer provide updates for.

A lot of the F-35 parts are produced in Europe, it's mostly the software that is a concern. But it's not like there are any alternatives right now. Developing a new European plane will take decades.

It was a bit odd that they were going to use the B varient even for their land-based fleet.

No and I have no plans to ever do so.

I remeber letter on keypads when I was like 14 and using sms on a keypad to text my girlfriend on a Nokia phone. Why are you still using that?

except phone keypads and computer keypads are inverted.

True.

But this isn't about computer keybads, but ATM keypads and they are the same as my phone keypad.

I have a workaround for that! Take out your phone and search for a hidden app called "phone" (should be pre-installed). There should be a "keypad" tab. There you can type in the pin from muscle memory to get the actual numbers.

I would say Manga 100%

Why do you think that?

I feel like ebooks will always be considerably easier to pirate than any video/audio files, just because they are so much smaller and can be hoarded (and thus seeded) much more easily.

sleeper sell agents

Damn, they must be really good at selling if they can do it in their sleep!

Since karma isn’t tracked

Technically it is. All votes are tracked and karma is just all the votes you got, tallied up.

It's just that, by default, lemmy doesn't sum them up and display them. But the information is there and could be shown with 3rd party apps.

I never downvote opinions and I do not engage with people who downvote mine

if you’re going to tell someone to shut up,

But downvoting doesn't mean that. At all. Not even sure how you got that idea. It's also not hiding your comments, it's sorting them. And the reader get's to select the sort order (some which entirely ignore votes).

So yeah, you're not making any sense here.

Remind me again, which country launched this war?

Iran's proxy.

.. declared by the President of the United States

Usually you can't even declared ceasefires on the behalf of other parties ... but what do I know.

Except Netflix has ads now, too.

I'm not your buddy, guy!

Yes, let's give nukes to a theocratic regime bent on destorying the west. That will own the libs.
