It’s the “grandpa has been using slotted all his life so it can’t be bad” reasoning. I can’t think of a single use case I’d want slotted or even philips, if I’ve got a choice. Torx or bust!
If you’re having trouble with Torx, buy better screws and bits. There are so many terrible screws around. The difference between a deep well fitting head and the cheap trash is massive.

Palestinian kid: exists
IDF: so you’ve chosen death
I kid you not but only a few days ago someone here on lemmy argued that you can’t take anything he says at face value… Because you know… He lies. Especially if he only said it once.
Yes it was supposed to be a pro-Trump argument because Trump said he’d want for Israel to finish the job (in Gaza) and that guy argued, he’ll vote for Trump because Biden is complicit in genocide.
I’ve red patriot is a “billion dollar system”. Losing these hurts a lot. I don’t know if Germany has a lot of these launchers. The mobile launchers are from Germany I believe.
In Germany we’ve something we call “wehrhafte Demokratie” which basically means a democracy capable of defending itself. There are measures in place (in theory) that prevent parties that aim to destroy the democracy from getting into power by winning elections.
Someone who openly admits his goal is to end democracy shouldn’t be able to run for president. It’s what happened in Germany back in 1933. The NSDAP won the general election and took over the government via democratic means and within weeks destroyed the democracy. Never again (hopefully)
Did you though? He’s running again with a good chance to become president, again.
I can only speak for myself but I am sick and tired of the fate of the world hanging on whatever mentally deranged and unhinged extremist the US might elect every few years. Aren’t you supposed to be the oldest democracy in the world? I expect as much from countries like Russia or China but the US should do better.
The world needs the US to do better.
Yet you (America) still vote this guy in. Somethings rotten and wrong over there and you guys better figure it out.
I don’t know a thing about windows 11 but they’ll have to claw windows 10 away from me to force me to switch. Why would I even want to? Windows 10 works just fine and even that I only switched to because they fucking forced me. If I could I’d still use Windows 2000. I loved that one. XP was fine as well though. I don’t want to worry about my OS. I want it to fucking work.
But an OS you don’t need to upgrade doesn’t generate money.
Without looking at a map my memory is kinda fuzzy but I believe Russian troops would have trouble getting there. I hope they try the Black Sea route
People have been throwing around the “the French support is covert” thingy around since the start of this war. I don’t see it. Those Caesars weren’t delivered silently at all.
Even covert support costs money. French is broke af and may not even fulfill their publicized commitments. For a country seeing itself as one of the major military players in Europe, they’re slacking a lot on this one.
It’s a smokescreen to divert from his lacking support so far. Remember when someone posted the top 10 supporters of military and non-military aid in Europe recently? France didn’t even make it on that list.
By being a sane human being for instance. Try empathy.
And it’s bullshit because to Putin the occupied territories are russian territory. Didn’t they annex these regions already? At least Crimea is Russia to them. Yet we still are fine with attacking Russian troops in these regions with western weapons. To Putin it shouldn’t make any difference, if UA strikes there or other parts of Russia. But somehow it does.
So Crimea isn’t russian territory after all or is that red line actually nothing more than another smoke screen?
Russia keeps drawing lines everywhere and the west is overstepping them all the time. Nothing ever happens. It’s Putins version of https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/China’s_final_warning
But why would the Russians continue to operate in that sector? Is this the same region the last ones went down? They probably can’t afford to keep losing their equipment and pilots like that.
Who did invade Ukraine two years ago? Putin can end the war anytime.
