Darmok and Jalad, on the ocean.

The ones with the thin metal band that your hair always get caught in?

I remember the sound being worth the pain. Good looking too.

You see it as dismissive. Low effort reply, like they couldn’t be bothered. It’s not inviting continued conversation so you see it as someone telling you to stop talking to them.

If I were to guess. In your eyes. They might as well have replied with “cool story bro”.

Which is now forever a sarcastic term and no one regardless of what you say, will believe that you actually found their story cool.

It’s not the thumbs up in itself that is seen as rude, but the short dismissive affirmative.

Someone that sees it as rude would feel like they put effort into their message and expect some kind of effort back in the reply,

the single emoji response can also make it seem like you didn’t even care to read it, and just say replied with something to make them shut up.

Probably got a little bit lucky but prices seems to have gone down, maybe people just refuse to buy them otherwise. I’m in the far north of EU. Really can’t get much further north than here.

Damn, I just bought 12 eggs for 2 Euro. (2.1 if we want to be exact)

He didn’t say scandies are radical. He said we’re left wing. Which is subjective to what you’re comparing to.

If you compare them to the US. Their right would be more left than the US left.

My religious beliefs? I don’t have any. Nor have i stated anything about certain people being superior over anyone else.

You’re right, the f35 has not been performing strikes against Eastern nations directly. That doesn’t mean it has never been tested. They’re sold to various countries in Europe and each and every nation does test their capabilities with their own systems. Each of their neighbours take every oppertunity to test their capabilities as well. Everyone has come to the same conclusion. The ram capabilities of the f35 is mighty impressive.

You’ve displayed your lack of insight into each and every aspect enough as it is.

And addressing your childish game of name calling isn’t an ad hominem attack. But it is funny you mention that, seeing how you unprovoked, resort to personal attacks. The comment-chain is there to read for everyone. You’re the only one between us making personal attacks.

Ah yes. Now I’m a racist as well. What do you base that on exactly?

If you think they’ve never tested the stealth capabilities of the f35 you’re delusional.

You got absolutely nothing in terms of knowledge on the subject, which is why you resort to personal attacks and throw in the occasional “no u” to derail the discussion into a match of name calling. You follow the same pattern every time.

Ah yes. Everything that is inconvenient for your arguments is a conspiracy. Must be very convenient.

The F35 does try to do a lot of things. You can argue effectiveness of many of them. But what it DOES do well, is performing as a stealth strike craft. Credit where credit is due. The ram technology development in the US is impressive and world leading.

You resort unprovoked to name calling (“yankeestan”), and attack others intellect. It really shows your insecurity the moment something doesn’t go your way.

You speak of “generations” as if the jets are a console. “They’re making a 6th gen aircraft”. They claim they’re making a 6:th gen aircraft. That claim won’t be proven until they start producing. Until then it’s nothing but speculation and fairy dust.

Buddy, you’ve not just fallen for propaganda, you’ve taken an express elevator right down the shaft and keep drilling once you arrive.

Sources alluding to what exactly? That the F-35 had had problems? Every single jet platform has had problems.

While the F-35 has problems of its own, its no secret that China is yet to manage to develop anything that can rival or beat their RAM.

Prototypes are nothing short of speculations and wishful thinking until it starts to hit production.

And I’m not even a fan of US jets. As a Swede I will admit my bias for our own platforms. But the F-35 does fill a role that our fighters doesn’t. And it does fill that specific role quite well. It’s not an all purpose aircraft.

taking pause to look around when new things are revealed, which is sensible. doesn’t mean what you think it means.

I remember the hype about Chinas new submarines. Oh they were gonna be so good and so stealthy. Turns out they didn’t make it far out of the Harbour before sinking.

So what was that you said about China producing things that “actually work”? Or maybe you excluded their sinking sub in that statement. I must have missed the asterisk

Not at all. Just lowering the guys expectations of having a genuine conversation. Feel free to prove me wrong 😘

He just straight up doesn’t know what he’s talking about. The only thing you’ll ever get out of him is west bad, China, Russia & North Korea good.

Can just as well name his post lockheed stock drops after kindergarten teacher drinks water and it would be equally accurate.

Dude, they’re not racists for disagreeing with your reasoning.

Racism, of various levels, are built upon hundreds of years of mistrust, inequality and misinformation.

It’s not as simple as just “cmon can’t we all just get along?”. And they are trying to explain this to you. And inform you that it’s a difficult and long path that has to be built slowly and carefully, and each place on earth will have to build it in a way that works for them, because all places experience racism differently.

Them trying to explain this to you doesn’t make them racists. None of them are saying discrimination is ok. Not a single one.

Never ever been in a place where people take food that isn’t theirs. I cannot even comprehend it. And if it happened more than once I’d keep my food in a backpack at my desk.

Is it yours? If no don’t touch. Simple as that.

Doesn’t have to be.

Probably bread

Ah yes, everyone else fault. Not that you come in here with the dumbest claim, refuse to explain it, and then just try to shit on everyone calling you out on your idiocy.

And what is you think west does that it always has? You can never say anything specific. It’s always vague nonsense.

NATO is a military alliance. Being part of NATO does not grant you any benefits in any market beyond perhaps weapon sales.

Being part of NATO has no meaning when it comes to game development, and sales, global otherwise.

So again. I ask the question. Why do you think NATO has anything to do with the topic?
