I live in Germany and wanted to buy a new car 2 years ago. I live in the city in a rented apartment. I can’t charge at Work, and neither at home. So I would have to use only public charging stations , the nearest is almost 2km away. Plus, public charging stations are so expensive that you pay more per km than gas for a ICE car (excluding maintenance costs obviously)

I actually wanted to buy an EV, but since I can’t charge it, even though I live in a city, I couldn’t

Tell that to my employer

Of course he knows. The goal is to crash the economy so the people who still have money when everyone lost theirs, i.e. the oligarchs, can buy up all these assets/companies that went bankrupt. And in the future when the markets recover, they have even more power. Losing a couple billion now is nothing in comparison to the long term gain

To add to that: Even from a purely military perspective, the intelligence gain regarding modern tactics far offsets what the US paid for it

How is the US neither of those? I don’t get it

Only thing I can think of is Wake on LAN, but you would obviously need another PC/controller to control

I created my windows 11 install stick with Rufus, it actually has an option to disable the requirement for a windows account when creating the bootable stick
