@lehrerseele @noelreports Right now it appears at least some EU member states intend to defend Greenland in case of invasion. Even more would help Denmark withstand any economic or political pressure. Trump wants to dissuade them, as Denmark is weaker alone. He thinks it will be easy, hopefully it will be hard.

@lehrerseele @noelreports I suspect the latter. He views Europe as weak and pathetic, and the logical conclusion of this belief is that EU will fold if he applies enough pressure.

I've heard even US generals keep pushing back against attacking Greenland. This might be why he's trying tariffs now.

@noelreports What is a stun grenade? Flashbang? Some sort of chemical-dispersing grenade? Explosive grenade without fragmentation?

@noelreports Interesting. I would expect Turkey to go against Iran. Maybe they fear that new government would mean the end of sanctions and therefore stronger Iran? Guess I need to learn more about the situation.

@itsfoss I'm glad that you started boosting instead of creating new posts with the same links.

This idea is promising and I hope it benefits both the EU and the FLOSS ecosystem.

@redjives OpenSCAD is good if you can write code. No point & click there.

You might have used FreeCAD or some proprietary app/service.

@birkenator @noelreports Regular satellite dish is meant for geostationary satellites. Starlink terminals use beamforming to aim the signal at one of the moving satellites.

@hajovonta @noelreports Lower supply would help Russia though.

@birkenator @noelreports I suspect it's fine if you cover them with radio-transparent materials. Bigger problem is obtaining the terminal in the first place.

@Gurre @noelreports Probably both more drones sent and more shot down. Ukraine is using more and more interceptor drones.

@ashed @itsfoss I believe 'secondary' is generally unused. The default one is 'clipboard' and the middle click one is 'primary'.

@itsfoss It might be confusing for new users coming from Windows or OS X, but it's very useful once you learn it exists. I'm glad there will be an option to turn it on.

@davep @noelreports 15-30k is not many, but at least someone is willing to provide boots on the ground. I was afraid no one would step up.

@noelreports He keeps switching the blame. Is it a way to alternate pressure between Russia and Ukraine, depending on who he wants concessions from?

@elasticsoul @noelreports No, the Budapest memorandum did not include security guarantees. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budapest_Memorandum#Content

@Rocquito @EUCommission Mastodon's EU servers are the best alternative to Twitter. Similarly, there are other Fediverse alternatives to proprietary social media. PeerTube, Diaspora, Friendica, Pixelfed, Lemmy, PieFed, Mbin, etc.

IMO the best web browser is Firefox. Yes, Mozilla is registered in the US, but it's a non-profit. We could use Mozilla Europe though.

@EUCommission I can recommend borscht with dumplings (barszcz z uszkami) and kutia (which you listed as kūčia). I'd add other Christmas Eve food, like fish soup, mushroom soup, cabbage with mushrooms as a dish of its own, as pierogi stuffing or with square pasta (łazanki). Add kompot (sweet boiled fruit drink) and poppy seed roll (makowiec) to that.
