Lots of networking libs are bases on tokio. I found it super annoying.

Many allies were happy with the war when it started. Their only concern was that they were not consulted. Merz/Starmer in particular.

Syria fell, Hezbollah in Lebanon was weakened. This openned air corridor to Iran from Israel. Biden was very supportive to Israel during Gaza. Its hard to imagine Iran operation would not get some support as well. Messaging would probably be about human/women rights so it would be easier for the publicc to swallow.

Re Guix. It usually boots just fine on standard hardware. Its just the wifi drivers that are widely unsupported. But all of that is solved with like 5 lines of config in a standard place.

Runbox, very simple, I exclusively use desktop/mobile generic email clients

What you wrote is only partially true because people of USA and Israel have influence on their domestic&foreign policy with democracy that they enjoy.

Agree with this explanation. Also in a monorepo it’s much easier to reference code between modules and I think this leads to too much coupled code. It takes more discipline to limit the scope of modules.
