It’s the go-to strategy for fossil fuel companies to stay in the market as long as possible

They know it’s not possible, they don’t want to build new ones but the discussion alone is slowing down renewables and makes it less likely that the current fossil power plants can be shut down soon.

Also just look how hard it is to find spots for renewables

Surely there will be no NIMBYs preventing atomic power plants and storage spaces for the used material from being built…

Isn’t it a huge problem that the president is blocking almost everything that’s even slightly progressive? Turning away now, right before they have a chance to actually change things if the presidential election goes well seems like a bad idea

This almost reads like a propaganda piece right out of Russia’s playbook in order to keep PiS in power…

The same one that also complained about free speech but literally kicks out journalists from the white house if they are not calling the gulf of Mexico the way he wants them to call it?

I think it’s possible to have her somehow take back that magic in a desperate situation, or to have her go through the trial for some reason, too (she always was kind of interested, but Geralt didn’t allow it)

I mean Geralt died in the books and is somehow alive for the games. A lot of stuff can happen and be explained in a way that fits with the lore good enough to spin a story around it

I bet the people complaining with “what about the lore” have a big overlap with the people that wanted Ciri to be a love interest in W3…

Shiftphone is a good alternative but it’s also on the more pricey site.

You could get lucky and get a used one for cheap? Since the battery can be replaced and is usually the only part needing regular replacements every couple of years you should be fine?

I feel as if full remote with a day in the office every couple of weeks for teambildung is fine as long as it’s voluntarily.

I much prefer retrospectives and post mortems of projects in person, too. Still no reason to force people to come in as long as the work gets done

Diese Münzrollen von der Bank und das einzahlen von Münzgeld sind aber auch immer teuer…

Aber wegen sowas führt man doch nicht plötzlich diese total überteuerten Kartenzahlungen ein…

And literally everyone else (besides the Left Party) is attacking him as their main opponent for that, despite the party being #4 in the polls at the moment and the Russian sleeper agents AfD+BSW are threatening to breach 1/3rd of the votes blocking any further changes of the constitution even if all democratic parties agree on it.

I really don’t get why the CDU chose to attack the greens over the AfD and how they can seriously consider the scheming FDP as a possible coalition-option…

Not everything is about the US

The sad thing is that it works both ways. If a left party in government is improving things but had to do a compromise and therefore couldn’t go all the way the far left is also complaining about that.

Compromise with far right positions should never happen, but compromise in itself is not something bad, and imho it’s one of the main problems in today’s democracy that too many people see it that way.

As with almost all things: it’s good to have principles to stand by, but the world is rarely as black and white as it seems to be.

Yeah I’d argue it was the most precisely targeted attack possible on such a scale.

But of course - since it’s Israel people use every angle possible to criticise it.

Or a kgb agent in the hotel room next to someone that just fell out of the window

Stochastic terrorism is a real thing though - and hate speech against a minority is one of the possible ways fascism can take root in a society.

Germany learned this the hard way how easy it is to overtake a country that was previously one of the most liberal and modern societies. That’s why hate speech against minorities and holocaust denial are forbidden and harshly punished here - and that’s probably one of the reasons why other countries in Europe had their far-right surges in recent years quite a bit earlier since russia had to be more creative about dividing the population

Gehen die nicht kaputt wenn man die spült?

Netanyahu is actively supporting Trump because he knows he’ll enable him to be way more aggressive inside Gaza.

People that still use this are just Trump-Bots that want to seed doubt so less people vote for Harris

No of course not - Trump’s a huge buffoon that loves dictators just for the fact that they are dictators. I was just referencing the “Are You Really Going to Elect a Guy Who Has Good Things to Say About Hitler?”-Part, since that in itself for me is not automatically a negative.

Ignoring that Hitler had positive traits, too, and pretending that people voted for a guy that was evil in all aspects is convenient but very dangerous - especially since it enables people voting for populists like Trump to pretend that he can’t be as bad as Hitler (which is probably the case - but if Hitler is painted as this absolute evil it’s actually very easy to make this claim without a second though. If you see Hitler as an opportunistic asshole that wasn’t inherently evil just for the sake of it then that comparison is a lot closer.

Demonizing Hitler as some kind of comic-book villain is ignoring how complex the situation leading up to him becoming leader of the Third Reich was and how people didn’t see him for how bad he was until it was too late.

It was just an example because just last week someone was claiming Germany should stop using the Olympiastadion in Berlin only because it was constructed for propaganda reasons.

The fact that Hitler is responsible for that doesn’t necessarily make it bad. A horrible person can also do a few things right. You can acknowledge that without praising the guy.
