History showed it many times: people who annex never ever make it better for the annexed. They always exploit and things get worse.

Unfortunately, that is not really possible.

The UEFI standard, a pdf that describes in detail the unified system that all motherbpards use during the boot process, is 1200+ pages long. And that's only one of the many subsystems in a modern system (that gigantic pdf tells you nothinf about PCI, about ACPI and usb, nor any other hardware peripheral). Also, since you are talking about a modern system, you also would need kernel, drivers and operating system calls documentation. All of these exist (for an open source OS like linux, and if you follow the aforementioned standards), but bundling them in a book, and keeping them uodated, would be just impossible.

I wouldn't be so sure. From the little I know of Greenland, the people are quite combative of their independence, as all native people are once they have been absorbed by western culture. The prime minister/governor/can't remember the title said quite clearly that they aren't for sale.

Also, I don't feel like 100k/resident is really a lot of money.

Trump is offering them to be part of the North American Technate which provides an abundance of resources. Look at the map.

That's bullshit. Trump wants Greenland's resources for his empire. The Greenlanders will get exploited and see no benefit to these resources. They will probably lose welfare and gain police brutality.

Did any south american or african colony ever gain anything from being 'acquired' by european powers?

• the US most likely had inside help, Venezuela being less hostile towards them than China or Russia it was probably easy to convince people
• head of states of China, Russia and North Korea are much more likely to expect such attacks and have probably more resources to spend on personal protection and armies. Putin is notoriously paranoid and it's difficult to locate because he spends a lot of reaources to hide
• as others said, those countries have nukes

Because 1) EU laws defend the customers a lot more and 2) US companies have already so much power and money, they can fuck over you easier, and you don't have easier alternatives, or at least some people pretend you don't

That feels so bad for signal integrity, especially at 5+ GT/s

Don't compare yourself to others, what works for them doesn't necesserily works for you. Do what you enjoy, try and spend as little as you can so you don't have to worry about abandoning them and regret, and try and not hoard hobbies: if you buy a guitar but didn't play it for 3 years, maybe it's time to sell if and recover some money, if you know you don't care about it. Just try and not feel too bad about it. Hobbies are and should be to enjoy passing times only.

Since some extensions are "mozilla-approved", I guess they test it regularly, it wouldn't be hard to verify if one is really sending anything despite their disclosure.

"No, we can't do anything to Russia, even if they are attacking our infrastructure and provoking a military response, that could be seen as an escalation!"

Meanwhile, Russia escalating infrastructure attacks and military provocations.

Not all positions require outstanding motivation. If you are a project manager, sure a motivated one will probably outperform someone there just for the money that doesn't give a shit. A technician on an assembly line? It doesn't matter, you are there to operate a machine and motivation will not make you (sustantially) more productive, incentives on the other hand will (benefits, salary, less stressful working condition...)

The logic is telling Israel "your country is not welcome here, we don't agree with you", which is different from saying " your people are not welcome here", because only representative are affected
