    Germany plans to halve military aid for Ukraine

    As I've said before, I'm all for peace. Just not at the barrel of a gun, which is what seems to be the consensus here. I stand by what I said earlier, Starmix: Sure, Ukraine should settle with Russia. As soon as Russia leaves their territory and returns Crimea, Luhansk and Donetsk to Ukrainian...

    US Missiles in Germany Anger Putin

    Russia has vast mineral resources, vast fossil energy sources and vast farmlands so in theory they could be a top-tier economic and political powerhouse. What hurts them is (a) the rampant corruption infecting pretty much every part of Russian society and (b) the overall Russian culture...

    Germany plans to halve military aid for Ukraine

    For the record, I want peace as much as the next person. I'm simply not willing to see it happen at the expense of Ukraine's sovereignty.

    US Missiles in Germany Anger Putin

    What Russia (and Putin) wants is to re-establish their old sphere or vassalage over Eastern Europe/Central Asia and haven't particularly liked seeing their former "allies" in Europe turning West to NATO and/or the EU, never mind the fact that, contrary to their opinions, those countries came to...

    Are you conversant with all the required computer skills or you are much in the general basic knowledge for the computer?

    I know just enough to know about computers to know when to take it into the shop and when I don't need to do so. That's pretty much it.

    US Missiles in Germany Anger Putin

    Ignore them; the only way Russia is still considered a top-tier world power are the nuclear weapons they currently possess. Take those away and as we've seen in Ukraine, they are at-best a strong regional power. And never trust Russia to actually follow through on anything; the list of...

    Germany plans to halve military aid for Ukraine

    You're right, they should talk. Just as soon as Russia returns Crimea, Luhansk and Donetsk should peace talks begin. Until then, not so much.

    Poland Mulls Shooting Down Russian Rockets Targeting Ukraine

    Both countries will try to stab you with a knife; the difference is that Russia aims for the chest, China tries to befriend you while aiming the knife at your back.

    Poland Mulls Shooting Down Russian Rockets Targeting Ukraine

    Germany's Off-Loading of Bitcoin and the Effects on the Crypto Markets

    Germany and/or the EU hasn't really been a friend and ally to crypto and I suspect they'd rather have the cash instead of Bitcoin. That said, I agree w/the one legislator quoted above; they should sit on it and keep it as a reserve.

    Do you see BTC hitting $60K anytime soon again?

    Do you see BTC hitting $60K anytime soon again?

    I think it will; it couldn't stay above $60k the way it was going so I suspect it'll find a spot in high 40's to low 50's and stay there for a while before going back up.

    Will Putin use the world’s largest nuclear bomb if the Ukraine-Russia war escalates?

    *sighs* Where oh where do I start? First, neither side is going to use nuclear weapons; their purpose is deterrence and they've succeeded in that regard. Second, as closely as the West is monitoring Russia any indication of nuclear weapons usage would be spotted immediately; unlike strategic...

    (The Guardian) In an address to the Nato summit yesterday, Joe Biden announced new air defenses for Ukraine, while saying the alliance “is stronger than it’s ever been in its history”.
