I regularly format usb drives to fat32 with windows. You just need to use diskpart.

Get used to it. The US isn't just shooting itself in the foot, it's creating a ball pit full of mines and jumping in head first.

Do you have any sources I can read up on? This is the first I hear of this.

Especially because he has always been a staunch atlanticist with a ton of connections in the US. That and the fact this comes from Germany, the most pro-US country, barring the UK, in Europe, gives his words extra gravitas.

I don't know about Hungary, but when it comes to Slovakia Fico is hardly representative of the wider society. There have been massive protests against him and his ilk ever since he somehow managed to squirm his way back into power. Slovak society is basically 50/50 split between the EU leaning urban centers and the Russia leaning villages (very crudely put, it's obviously more complicated). But the main reason for the anti EU-stance of Fico is very basic: corruption. Thankfully there is little chance of Slovakia turning into an Orban style illiberal democracy because there is not enough support for it within society. Orban had an absolute majority in parliament for over a decade, Ficos Smer, even combined with its offshoot Hlas, doesn't come close to that. They're only in power because they allied themselves with the extreme right. Their powerbase is also slowly crumbling as their vote share amongst the younger generations (45 and younger) is minimal. Slovakia will be ok, but it still has to shed some demons from the past first, which is an ongoing process.

After that he can tackle the weasel outbreak in the white house.

Can't tell if these are joke names or real. Since there is that X-AE whatever name, I assume they are real ...

This movie is awesome. Saw it in the movie theater with my wife and we both loved it.

Vader being woke as shit. Expect an executive order to ban Star Wars.

I actually didn't quite remember the reason, so I checked it. The rounding is one main reason and the fact it is so heavy it requires a drivers license for trucks, as well as basically no demand. So no build quality requirements failed, but definitely safety related.

There's a reason why the EU won't allow the sale of cybertrucks and it all has to do with ~~build quality and~~ safety.

Edit: strikethrough added based on incorrect assumption as pointed out below
