Your whole argument is looney. Do you live in the EU?

EU is just a talking club for a couple of countries. It just serves as a scape goat for failures of national policy.

Actually it’s exactly the opposite.

EU capped credit card fees precisely for this reason[0]. This news never gets out, because “Europe bad, the USA great”.

Ah yes. Let’s thank the might US for providing pesky Europeans capital a fistful of dollars. But maybe let’s do it after Americans thank for Russian, Arabian, Chinese, European capital and workforce. After all this is what “Made in the USA” means.


Many European countries provide helplines for people in need. Did you try one?


Peace is war, war is peace.

Remember that, and you will need no helplines.


After WWII Europeans decided to build an egalitarian society and focus on wealth creation, peace and cooperation. Pre WWII they were just too much for the world, as the concentration of powers, including clash of ideologies and need of survival, led to ultra competitive environment at a cost of aforementioned values. They were a leading edge once, due to continental race of industrialization. Because of this structure basically 80% of the world was under European rule. They just prefer watching from the backstage now. Let’s pray this continues.


Is EU chips act 2.0 any good?


There will be 2nm in Ireland


Are you talking about Intel? That's the 7nm class and I've never seen anything about plans for the 20A/2nm generation at that fab.


Intel has committed to bringing "Intel 3" to Leixlip https://www.idaireland.com/latest-news/press-release/intel-a... , so below 12nm or 7nm but still above 20A/2nm IIUC. It does also seem that Intel has already ordered ASML EUV machines for Leixlip, which arrived by 2023 https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/corporate/eu-chipmak... .


Exactly, chess.com is at value extraction phase. Lichess is much better platform now.


Wasn't this literally always the case and the very reason lichess was created? And yet it remains #2.


Some battles are won at the domain registry.


I only started playing less than a year ago. I paid for one year because of game review to improve my game. Didn't know lichess exist, but I'm not paying for a second year for sure
