You seem to be putting words in my mouth, ie I don’t think sanctions failed, so I’m going to ignore the conclusions you make from that.

A breakdown of my comment :

The war would have played differently if dedaces ago, ie BEFORE the start of the war, european countries had reduced their reliance on fossiel fuel.

In 2020, the EU was Russia’s biggest trading partners, and fossil fuels were a large chunk of EU import. It took years of sanctions, of setting up alternative energy import deals, and of electrification efforts, to get a points where Russia-EU trades are a small parts of today’s total trades.

During those 4 years, Ukraine severely suffered from Russian’s invasion, and Russia was cashing in on energy export to the EU. Less export and less revenue from exports would have it more difficult for Russia to finance war, and easier for the EU to quickly sanctions Russia.

So yes, the EU’s energy policy was bad for some time, because of its members’ reliance on fossil fuel, and overreliance on Russia as energy provider. It’s definitely improving, better late than never. It’s clearly not as simple as “EU bad”, the union is doing a great deal to sanction Russia and support Ukraine.

If the criminal’s home country enforce the sentence, then why not?

The Ukraine war would have played our diffetently had Europe reduced its reliance on fossiel fuels decades ago. The continent is paying for its short-sightedness.

Who could expect its thermal exaust port would be a weakness?

Why would you need to plug a console to the Internet to play solo games?

Connecting mostly bring enshittification: sending telemetry to 3rd party, ads, updates triggering a random time making it impossible to play when powering the console.

My console is offline 95% of the time, behind a slow connection 5% of the time. No physical media would mean not buying any new game. No new games means there’s no point in buying the latest console to play new games.
