For me the real power of Wikipedia lies in its local language editions. English articles often reflect only positive perspective, while local versions bring fresh viewpoints. Local language have sharper criticism that gets toned down in English.
Trading stop with China would mean the US Phase 1 deal closing, which is far more advantageous to China than the EU deal.
Also Germany is not the whole EU, but yes Germany could have stopped this. Something only _Germany_ does is the gas pipe to Russia. Germany buys GAS from Russia with more than 20 nuclear reactors worth from the Mafia State.
On a positive side US is back to path for democracy. Go EU, go US!
I agree, US and the rest of Europe should be ashamed also for not doing more.
And the German Nord Stream 2 is entirely unconscionable, and the authoritarianism of Russia is already spreading westwards and will be at Germany's borders sooner rather than later if Germany does not take a harder stance against it.
Yes it does. It makes too simple for non-techical user to make the signal distorted. Distorted signal can damage a speaker, even in low volume. It's irrelevat to blame "the others do it too".
I've seen it happen many times in meetings.
1. Presenter shows a video and volume is low.
2. Presenter adds volume from VLC to 200% and sound signal gets distorted.
3. Sound is awful, no-one can hear anything and people are doing nothing to fix it, because they think that speakers are broken.
Please VLC, fix your player so that it has good sounding limiter on the "output". It's not difficult.
