If it’s closed to the US, the ships that go there will just register at Malaysia or whatever.

Sanctions would work as well on the US as they work on Iran.

The nationality of the ships isn’t important.

Anyway, Iran won’t keep antagonizing the entire world if their existence isn’t at risk. They haven’t been acting like crazy.

Yeah, quitting and going away is the best he can do. If he does that, other countries will work down some way to fix things.

Because the US and Israel already picked their next target, and if they aren’t stopped they will go for it again and again? Because the civilians are there, dying?

It sucks that the Iranian government is a piece of shit. That’s not reason to root for them to be destroyed.

Are you sure he wasn’t 50 back then? I mean… look at him!

Why didn’t you tell me about Pearl Harbor?

Trump was what at that time? A middle aged nobody?

Solano Lopes would be proud! When do they start conscripting 9 year olds?

it’s a “really good idea” to try to bargain with Trump

Lol! What rock has this guy been living under?

Half a dozen of them have real cost/benefits trade-offs that make preaching for a single one harmful. The other thousand are just completely useless waste of time not worth mentioning.

You are still dancing around the concept of an aircraft carrier. Last time I looked, having a military navy was still illegal for you.

So, yeah, you protect your shores with a coastal navy. Like every other country.

I’m deeply sorry. If it’s any consolation, it will eventually happen to everybody.

Or at least everybody that didn’t see the light and adopt The Penguin… But let’s leave religion to another time.

UK, Japan, China and South Korea

Hum… A month ago UK was preparing for a war against the US with the rest of NATO.

And China?! Really?!

Japan barely has a navy, I’m not sure South Korea even has ships on theirs.

Yes, Russia will lose a part of their supply.

They will also gain a lot of money they can use to buy things from other places.

Apparently, the US is preparing to send 5k marines to Iran.

mostly because of Trump’s loose sense of morality

Let’s not forget Netanyahu.

You use it to write programs.

It is. But I doubt they are used by 3 combined people.

The Debian project needs to keep the machines for compiling and testing. And there’s probably no other machine of those architectures available for the enthusiasts to actually use.

It’s doubtful if most of the reserves can become viable at any price. (Because the cost of materials increase when oil price increase.) But some are perfectly viable.

But also, even in perfect conditions, if they started drilling right now (what they aren’t), it will take several month to start getting any of it.

Yes. It’s newby-friendly, what is great for the time every 2 or 3 years that it opens in my face and there’s no alternative editor installed.

Copy and paste are there too, but there’s no reason to use them instead of the terminal buffer, so I can edit things in an editor I like. I just wish it made it easier to delete several lines at the same time.
