When you take “Fuck Nazis” to literal.

In international relation rhetoric is policy. Just saying.

Dugin does want to give Estonia to Germany though. Yes he is weird.

They can move to Estonia, which would be in the German sphere of influence.

Wissing ist noch Minister.

Schade ein Grüner Verkehrsminister wäre echt gut. Da könnte man gut Autobahnbauprojekte in Probleme führen.

It has its positives though. The Euro is the second most important currency in the world. If Trump succeeds in destroying trade, the EU might very well end up as the worlds reserve currency.

For a few months.

Hopefully the EU takes over. It has a lot more economic strength then NATO. Also the UK is strong as well, but that can be managed. Turkey does its own things anyway and I would not trust them. Norway and Iceland are not that important. Canada is going to go with the US anyway. The advantage is easier common funding for projects, due to the EU having more direct access to money. There are also a lot of the basics in the works already.

That reaction was tune down, due to the country being occupied. It pretty much took the Nazis having to shut up for a few decades, by threat of prison to end up with a somewhat pro democracy population.

Usually those artist did get some recognition during their life, but never got into the main stream. That changed due to the main stream changing and the people who did like the art showing it again. That is actually rather easy to do with something like the Fediverse. It just requires a download option. Especially when everybody is aware, that the content will be deleted, that would be a decent option.

Also a lot of content on social media in general is very short term. Stuff like politcal discussions are fairly useless after a few months in most cases. So that can be deleted without much care and again, if somebody wants to preserve it, they easily can just download it.

Slovakia has a far right president too. So not too much of a surprise. Melania Trump is Slovenian, so that might be it. Bulgarian politics is just nuts.

The problem with Trump is that he is loud and slightly crazy. That just does not work well with German post WW2 culture. If somebody calmer would run, that would be a different story though.

Considering the number of high ranking older Republicans, who support Harris, that really does not mean that much. Seriously Dick Cheney supports Harris these days.

It looks cool, but it seems harder to put either large cargo and also securing smaller cargo. If you go shopping, you can just put the bags in the cargo space of a bakfiets or similar bike, here you need to put it into those boxes, which are somewhat nasty to transport. As soon as something is too large to fit in a box, you need to strap it on separatly, which again takes time.

We really need to rethink the internet as it is today. A 1GW nuclear power plant produces as much electricity as 2.39million people need in terms of global average or 700k US Americans. So when multiple big tech companies talk about multiple nuclear power plants to run even more servers to what is already a widely used service, then we have a massive problem. So we need to talk about AI, streaming, tracking of users and really how many features most users really need for their services. This is just insane.

Zusätrlich spart man auch noch eine Menge Geld und braucht dadurch weniger zu Arbeiten. Eine Wohnung für zwei Personen ist halt nicht viel teurer als für eine, auch im Unterhalt und für die Einrichtung. Man kann sich auch sonst oft viel teilen.

The laws have been passed, it is just that they will start 2026.

Exports also profit benefits to the country exporting. It is very much part of how a country operates. That is why China is calling the EU to stop the carbon tariff CBAM, as it would hurt Chinese exports.
