Please don’t tell him it was Britain, or he’ll be invading France next.

The original question was

But are they worried the US won’t defend if a NATO country is attacked?

and I’m pretty sure the current US won’t. In fact, here’s my prediction on what will happen:

In the upcoming weeks Trump and Putin will split the Ukraine between the two of them. Encouraged by that success, Putin will try to invade Finland in order to reinstate the Russian Empire. Most of NATO will of cause stand with Finland, but Trump (confusing Finland with Denmark, as no true American can tell these nordic countries apart) tries to make a deal: “If Finland wants our support, they must hand over Greenland”. As Finland obviously can’t do that, Trump will say: “Then we must invade Greenland before the Russians get it”. But confusing Greenland with Canada (as no true American can tell these nordic countries apart) he will actually invade Nova Scotia. TBH, I think this orange idiot is so clueless, he might actually try to invade Alaska, believing it to be Canada.

He has threatened Canada that they’ll be the 51. US-State, he has threatened Denmark by saying he’ll “liberate” Greenland. A war of aggression usually doesn’t directly start by invading it, but with unrealisable claims and wrong accusations:

• “Hand over Danzig” and “your troops are violating our border, we’re just protecting our border” before invading Poland in 1939
• “Hand over these (non-existent) WMDs” and “Sadam was involved in 9/11, we’re just fighting terrorism” in 2003
• “Crimea and Donbas shall be Russian” and “The government in Kyiv are Nazis, we’re just protecting the Russian minority” in 2014
• “Canada shall be the 51. US state” and “Canadians are smuggling drugs into our country, we’re just protecting our border” in 2025
• “We’re going to have Greenland” and “It’s for the protection of the free world, we’re just providing freedom to the Greenlanders” in 2025

That’s how you talk to countries you’re planning to invade and not to countries you’re planning to protect from invasion.

Haven’t you watched the news in the last 5 weeks? How can you expect the USA to defend a NATO country while they themselves are the aggressor?

It’s really great how docker shifted the problem from “works on my machine” to “works with my version of docker”.

cp is short for create packup

Yesterday I learned that Keanu isn’t USian but in fact Canadian. Today I wonder how he’s not at the top of this list.

He might be the teacher, a social worker or a parent.

To be fair, yor risk of being shot at is much higher in an elementary school in Portland than in the Swiss army.

o.O I never knew there even was support for Windows 95. At least it was a time before Windows Update, and I don’t know of any Service Packs either. It would have been a pain to download anyway, with my 56k modem and the 20Pfg/min price tag 😬

What has happened on 2001-12-31? My Windows 95 lived beyond that point. I think I still have it installed on my retro gaming laptop that’s lying down in my cellar. Might be time to boot it up once again.

It’s a big difference whether a folder is named PetersHits or PeterShits. So what should I expect when opening a folder called petershits? Pictures of Peter on the potty or some great songs?

You mean right vs. wrong?

I don’t just rethink my programming decision but all my life decisions every night. Seem like Rust is the perfect language for me.

That’s not true. It’s perfectly fine to have fun in Germany, as long as it doesn’t disturb the neighbours and is propperly announced to the local authities two weeks in advance using form SVaF-18/1-42.

It happens more often than you think. There’s an old German song about a bear who accidentally gets a job in a factory they built above his cave one winter. When he roams around the factory after waking up they mistake him for an unshaved, lazy worker and put him in front of a machine to do some tedious work.

It’s basically the opposite story to the one in this comic.

What’s the advantage of disk encryption if you don’t require a password to boot? Couldn’t you just boot the device and extract the data using Explorer anyway?

It seems to be some kind of production facility with machines standing in there. So maybe the Idea is to have electrical boxes on every pillar, so you’ll have electricity available wherever you place the machines. If the production lines are changed regularly, you wouldn’t want to rewire the entire building each time. A bit like these cubes hanging from the ceiling so you don’t need to run extension cords through your workshop whenever you need power somewhere, but a bit more encapsulated.

That’s because of these nasty roofs they’re putting on top of houses these days. The “stars” you’re seeing are probably the ceiling lights.

Nothing a little C4 can’t fix though. Just make sure to leave the room before ignition.

Chemistry is the study of the physics of the outer electron shell, as my physics teacher used to say.
