Just nuke your account and treat reddit as a read-only website. I use an alternative frontend so I can still follow the few niche communities that aren’t available on Lemmy without giving reddit any of my data.

Just for completeness sake, the EU is currently in the process of introducing a similar system called ETIAS.

Consider this, if only 10% of the warheads work that still leaves over 400 working bombs. Even in the unlikely situation where Russia didn’t know which ones where in working condition they could just resort to throwing 10 bombs at a target instead.

We also haven’t even defined what not-working means. You could for example classify a hydrogen bomb that doesn’t trigger it’s fusion stage as non-working. The primary stage of a thermonuclear bomb can still have a yield of a few hundred kilotons of TNT. The bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki where well below that.

For these reasons I consider the “Russian nukes don’t work” a nice fantasy at best. The threat is real and only kept in check by western nuclear counterstrike capabilities.

This is an incredibly dangerous assumption. According to the Federation of American Scientists Russia has a stockpile of 4489 warheads of which some 1674 strategic warheads are deployed on ballistic missiles.[1] A large part of these warheads might be defective but realistically you only need a handful of working ones. Russia also has the necessary material and infrastructure to keep their warheads in working order.[2] So while their capabilities compared to the USSR are greatly diminished there is no reason to assume that Russias nukes are all in non-working condition.

MBFC gives them a good rating.

I think full membership is very unlikely, but maybe Canada can join the EU Customs Union or even the Schengen Area at some point in the future.

I know nothing about French colonialism in Algeria and I immediately found a french massacre from 1945 with at least 6000 deaths.
Sounds like he has a point.

Orban would be a fool if he took this as anything but a propaganda win. In two weeks Trump might rip this deal up because of nice phone call with another politician. Trump doesn’t seem to follow a strategy and changes his mind every day at whim.

I know people don’t like to hear it but, assuming you and your neighbours collectively own the house, taking out a loan for a renovation like this isn’t the worst idea. Might be a massive headache though.
