GASP! A history debate!?!?!?! Its really a good question. What country do you think won WW2. This question is not asking what countries were the victors, thats not debatable. The question is, what single country do you think deserves the most credit to the defeat of the Axis Powers?

America. Hands down. Hitler made his way all through Europe even against the best combined efforts of France and Britian. Once American entered the war, D-day was the beggining of Hitler's end.

America was also fighting Japan in the Pacific.

Hitler didn't really attack England toooo badly. All he could do was attack us during the night with air raids. Although we did have total control of the English channel (during the day) after the Battle of Britain, when we destroyed the German Luftwafer (or spelt something like that).

I do think that America did a good job of helping in the European battles, aswell as their battles against Japan in the East.

In all, I would agree with cornface and say that the neutral countries won the war, because they were the countries that lost the least people.

Nonsense, the war in the East was going horribly wrong for Germany before D-Day even occurred.

Yes, Germany was already going down before D-Day, but D-Day helped massively with the actual attack on Germany.

I disagree.
What do you mean by neutral? France was neutral and didn't fight Germany when they invaded France. This neutrality and appeasement policy lead to this catastrophy..

Ahh yes I forgot that france was neutral during WWII.

I just checked enouwee's link and it looks like Soviet Union had the most deaths by far. Great Britain and USA had some of the least losses.

Ignorance. You have no idea how strong the Canadian military was back then do you? No idea what we did for the war?

On D day, Canada was the first one to achive there goal and they did it by the end of the first day.

Anyway, Sweden won.

Europe itself won. Because of Europe there was a Soviet Union and a United States in the first place. In fact we saved ourselves by smart moves in history.

Of course the above is pure nonsense, with a sense of truth.

I agree with Cornface and Enouwee. The neutral countries won, because they had least casualties.

Imo, if everyone would have been neutral, today it would be a nazi world... with millions of dead jews etc...
Neutral countries hoped for other countries to solve the situation.

Thinking of that I would say America/Canada won, they had the option to enter the war, they weren't forced like GB.


Btw. it is time to unseat Mugabe.

Germany won from Germany...

If Hitler hadn't been the idiot he was (tactically speaking, not that I agree with his ways...) and started Barbarossa, who knows how things might have turned out...

yes thats right. if germany hadnt lost the world war we would live now how hitler wanted us to live. ( you know... no real school education, born to be a warrior etc...). So the country germany lost, but the german population won (except the DDR-part :p). But if you look from this position, everyone has won (everyone who lived in freedom after the WW2). So i think america has won, they could sell so much to the european people after the war.



NOTE: this english was horrible, wasn't it?

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
