How about helping businesses actually stay in Europe. It’s almost impossible to scale up in europe due to insane moats everywhere.

Its still super easy just search the web how to. Use a new browser window with new email on mobile network connection - its literally impossible to reliably fingerprint this.

The bans are mostly meaningless these days tho. Its so easy to make a new account and bypass detections.

Remember when it was “open sourced”? This is the state of the repo right now with 0 updates in 2 years 😂

Not the same thing?

As an European living in Asia and can’t help but cringe at American cars. They’re so far behind. And it’s the car country. Japan has better cars and better rail. Embarassing.

Tbf notoriously China subsidizes BYD to net loss so its not exactly capitalism.

This is just working. Spain is no demand for military tech and could easily spend time shopping around for years.

Subnautica 2 must be in a pretty dire spot for this to happen. I guess we’ll see as the story unrolls and early access comes eventually but I’ve met many successful people who stopped caring after they made it big (which is fine but then just quit) so I really wouldn’t be surprised if the publisher is right here.

I’ve worked with many Russian software developers and they’re mostly good dudes making good stuff. The issue is the brainwashed and uneducated masses and some bad apples that are in bed with the this mafia system.

Good point tho small part of the items were legit good due to keep it simple philosophy even if not intentionally. Particularly as you mentioned stuff like razors were very well regarded.

As for present it’s actually crazy how incapable Russia is at making stuff. As a Russian speaker myself I struggle to come up with any other country with such miniscule presence in actually creating stuff that is not weapons, rockets or dubious software.

Lmao as usual gamers rush in with outrage and turns out the issue is not that simple.

It’s the toughest problem for this very reason but thats why freedom of competition is critical here. We can allow systems to self correct through incentives and protections and thats exactly what most western democracies are doing!

Diversity has been hijacked as a ideological word but its literally the best and most sustainable long term strategy even in rigid markets like investment (I.e. hedging, index funds etc). So diversifying power, despite blocking, is really powerful despite what current autocrat wannabes want us to believe.

Will it though? Looking at China, Russia or Iran I’m not so certain. In fact it seems to be regressing without anyone actively working for progress.

That little front windows is adorable. It’s really cool how much innovation EVs brought but its yet to be widely available :(

Russia doesn’t make anything and coasting off Soviet reputation which is still prevelant with old people of post-soviet countries.

I’m surprised to see Russia so high up but in all honesty Russia doesnt really export anything but perishables. Even before the war Russian made products were laughable at best and straight up insulting to everyone involved at worst.

It’s the Soviet’s “build to last” manufacturing thats really carrying this reputation like ak-47 or even small things like meat grinders and razors are regarded as “build to last forever” in post soviet countries by old people.

Theres definitely some risk especially in semi-anonymous forums like Lemmy. For example Lemmy.world is blocking VPNs so they know everyone’s IP addresses and given post history etc its very easy to actually identify who’s who. Especially now with AI forensics.

That being said, as a security expert, I think it’s not always productive for casual people to be obsessed with this and you if you can you should use a VPN or a mobile network which due to how cell towers work is much more anonymous than anything else in practice (datacenter IPs work too as well as TOR but those are blocked in practice)

Someone was asking about “vignette glasses” on /c/asklemmy
