It’s not an apples to apples comparison because the architecture is so different. Notice his observation in the article:

I am very impressed with how smooth and problem-free Asahi Linux is. It is incredibly responsive and feels even smoother than my Arch Linux desktop with a 16 core AMD Ryzen 7945HX and 64GB of RAM.

M1 architecture has a huge advantage being a SoC and having shared memory between the CPU and the GPU which avoids the need for a bus. I’m still using M1 macbook with 8gb of RAM that I got to keep at one of my jobs a few years ago, and it’s incredibly snappy. I’ve tried x86 laptops with way better specs on paper, and they don’t come anywhere close in practice.

British state propaganda upset that civilians are evacuated from the war zone. Shouldn’t be a surprise I suppose given that the UK is fully backing a genocide right now.

Same, there are a lot of tipping point that could end up being unlocked in the near future. The effects could be utterly disastrous. Interestingly, places like Cuba or DPRK might be best prepared because they’re largely self sufficient. China and Russia are likely in a good position as well because they have end to end domestic supply chains. The countries that will be most affected are the ones that leaned in heavily into globalization and allowed their industries to become gutted. As supply chain disruptions due to climate disasters start becoming a common place occurrence, all these fragile just-in-time supply chains are going to crumble.

Probably just political embarrassment for Japan. You gotta remember that Japan committed large scale atrocities all across Asia, and they don’t like it when these things are dredged up and people are reminded of what Japan did and never apologized for.

I’m sure this will have no possible negative consequences for the burger reich.

BRICS countries are the most likely destinations. There’s little chance that anybody outside the west would park money in Europe at this point.

Clearly rape, torture, and pillaging have fuck all to do with investing in Europe given that the US is one of the biggest trading partners of Europe. Try to put a bit more effort into your artless trolling.

Given that they want to steal Russian assets because they’ve run out of money to fund the war, it’s not clear where the money to compensate Euroclear would come from. However, that’s not really even the main issue. The real risk is that Europe becomes toxic to foreign investment once they do this. Nobody in their right mind would ever park money in Europe or invest into European industry after that. The whole attempt to seize Nexperia doesn’t help build confidence either. And of course, foreign money that’s currently in Europe is going to flee as well which will lead to a huge financial crisis bringing us back to the question of how the EC can possibly reimburse anything.

🤣

I mean if that’s the game plan then they’re doing it backwards given that Ukraine and the Europeans already rejected the US 28 point plan, while Russia just slow walked it saying they’d consider it as a basis for negotiation. It’s the Ukrainians who look intransigent here, not the Russians. Meanwhile, the conditions on the front continue to deteriorate and Russia’s position in the negotiation continues to get stronger.

that explains a lot actually

you keep using this word ‘logical’ I don’t think it means what you think it means

I suspect that one would have better luck explaining this to a squirrel on meth.

calling what goes on inside that head of yours thinking is very generous

I mean both Russia and the US have nukes too, and the proxy war is in its third year now.
