>>13690287Different conclusions? Well I'm not sure... Different in what way?
>I often wonder if we haven't forfeited a lot for itBut wouldn't you say that what we've gained from it has much more significance? Maybe not good significance at all times but I think it's still about the most wide reaching invention we have and that shouldn't be discounted so easily.
I just told you darling - VMs and a recaptcha key. Now if only hiro hadn't changed the captcha on us I could put the api key to good use, furry style
>not that simpleWell that's what I did... Come on, didn't you ever try fun things just for the heck of it?
>>13690394>are the talibans just going to take over Afghanistan with nobody opposing them? You'd think the locals would know how to fightumm the taliban are the locals... It's more of a ragtag militia than a real army and so its leadership is rather decentralized with each warlord ruling over their local provinces or whatever. The army we trained there were probably only located in the capital anyway with similar results to what happened with isis in iraq - a total breakdown of command, abandonment of equipment, etc. And why? Because who wants to fight against what might be your cousin for what are in the end just the machinations of a foreign power? Gosh, who'd have thunk that flooding cheap kalashnikovs into a area known for its complex regional politics would have this kind of effect
