If not Trump than MAGA inner circle seems to be definitely compromised. They did a 180 flip on US foreign policy. This is why politicization of foreign policy is never a good idea. For all the hate the "deep state" gets you don't get such uncertainty and recklessness with them. This is...

This is pretty much a given for anyone who moves to the US. Don't know why he feels like he needs to clarify that.

Maybe you are too far right personally that is why. Old school right wing in US/EU is basically the same as modern ones like Trump, but they maintain a veneer of sanity and use far right parties (like AfD in Germany's case) to appear as the relatively more stable and responsible alternative...

The U.S. could afford trade deficits post-WWII because it had an overwhelming economic lead. A declining share of global GDP does not mean absolute U.S. decline, just that the rest of the world caught up. Trade deficits weren’t purely strategic, they also reflected outsourcing for corporate...

No one denied that, but US gained more than anyone. It gained strategic control, economic advantages (through trade and reserve currency status), and political leverage over allies. The U.S. expected Europe and Japan to remain economically and politically aligned in exchange for security...

My point is no one asked US to spend so much money on its military. It willingly did that and also reaped the benefits of it. Also note that Germany has been demilitarised twice and for very good reasons :laughing: . After the two world wars the general opinion in the western world was that...

Merz is basically Trump lite. He is a old-school right wing politician. As far as I am familiar with Germany politics the right wing there doesn't care about EU that much. Most likely this is just tough talk for optics and we will see Germany first policies from him. To be fair it was US that...

The only messages you have to wait for are the ones that are on whatsapp's servers but not in your local backup, usually the ones that were sent to you while you were offline (between old and new install), since they were sent with the old encryption keys. Once the other person comes online they...

It's definitely there in whatsapp, when you reinstall whatsapp your encrytion key changes and you will find older messages will not load until the other person comes online and new encryption keys are shared between you and that user.

Considering they were already selling through official distributor Cosmic Byte, will this really make much of a difference?

Does feedly do notifications? I tried to use this app recently but I found it doesn't really notify you. Useless for my purpose. I am still looking for an app that gives top notifications for Indian news, suggestions appreciated. I will rarely open the app I just want to get notifications to...

You do realise this is just some fanfiction some guy made up right? It's not news. No this was always known. So you should also be asking from 2016-2020 what USAID did? Because that was under Trump administration. They should be able to tell us about their intent then? Because they have...

Of course, they operate in 90 countries as per their website, even 4600/90 = $51 million, no doubt they spend many times more than that in India. https://www.crs.org/sites/default/files/crs-fin-report-2023.pdf

https://www.forbes.com/sites/saradorn/2025/02/03/these-are-the-top-usaid-recipients-from-religious-groups-to-major-us-companies-as-trump-targets-agency/ Biggest recipient of USAID is Catholic Relief Services, which is a Christian organisation also active in India, that received 4.6 BILLION $...

Nothing forensic about what DOGE is doing, they are just cutting US government programs with a chainsaw, in their own words. All this justification you hear about 21mn going to India etc is just the PR justification for it. Yes this was always public knowledge but what actually gets discussed...

Non profits are by law required to have records for their financials. This is not some top secret CIA stuff. No doubt US does that kind of covert stuff too, but they will not do it openly like with USAID. This is just a Trump generated hoax that all the media houses in India and even our...

People in the US government are not confused, it's most likely just that the Trump team tried to convert the funding list items into outrage news headlines and didn't care about how accurate they were. You must have heard about that "50k $ for trans play in cambodia" or something like that...

But people will not leave due to WFO unless it's easy to get another job with WFH. How can both things be true - that there is industry wide reduction in demand AND companies are pushing WFO to increase attrition. If WFH jobs are hard to find, people will suck it up and come to office. I don't...
