I’m not looking forward to whole exclaves of Putin supporting ethnic Russians already fighting for independence while at the same time benefitting, to join the EU.

Edit: Transnistrië, not whole moldova.

Essentially that’s mandated. Companies don’t do it… But that is the law. And they can store a cookie with that info without requiring permission as it is essential to performing that action.

I would expect a database of gunowner with serial numbers and for each weapon a ballistics profile.

Makes sense. There is a database of people with permits to operate and all ownerships including VIN of vehicles… that’s not weird either.

Sshhh… never interrupt an adversary when they are making a mistake.

Further alienating disgruntled potential voters by making fun of them… it’s a bold strategy. Let’s see if it pays off.

In the meanwhile, all the pro-palestine protesters now heard that even that miniscule tap on the brakes (which is a big signal in geopolitics) lead to a major flip out by the GOP… so they might not like that Biden is not doing enough… the GOP is now showing that if they are in power… Israel will have a no limits friend… who will not even speak out on bombing condensed civic centers.

Let’s see if they get them back in the same number of pieces the men went there.

“We have not encouraged or enabled strikes outside of Ukraine, but ultimately Ukraine has to make decisions for itself about how it’s going to conduct this war,” said Blinken, opening up the possibility of Western military materiel being used against Russian units located beyond Ukraine’s borders.

This is actually pretty big. Kiev driving 2 himars to the north one with gmlrs and one atacms variant and the Belgorod region is pretty much f-ed

Back to obscurity for the creep. Headlines with his name are not good.

I hope they win.

Who would have guessed that saying the tribes are effective extensions of the cartels means they think you should not be welcome on their souvereign lands.

Link to the source is dead.

Much appreciated kind sir

I’d be interested in an investigation and prosecution of the decision makers at RBI.

Money… ad dollars… a lot of em for CNN.

My first thought too. Putin is cleaning house internally. And this can just be a good move with fico not being loyal enough so you martyr him and get an even more usefull idiot in his place.

I’m worried we might see mandatory minimum scenteces (pvv vvd and nsc are law & order types)

I’m not convinced they will do any meaningful thing on immigration. (Farmers and companies need cheap labor… so vvd and BBB)

And the policy of cracking down on farmers overusing our countries natural resources will be stiffled by BBB.

Badeendje, 13 days ago

Yeah I read it this morning. I was surprised that not a lot of the things I feared where in there. But at least all the stuff they don’t like from previous governments will be scrapped without offering alternatives. And they will be handing out truckloads of cash to incentivise farmers to stop (breaking the law and overusing our natural resources).

But a collapse in 6 months, I doubt it. If anything Rutte has proven you can “govern” 16 years without actually achieving anything meaningful. They only got rid of stuff… except for harsher punishments all around… especially for citizens when making a mistake on forms.

I am glad Ukraine will be supported as pvv was against this. Also the nuclear powerplants are a good solution for baseload imho… so that also seems good. I just hope they put them out at sea on new island(s).

We will see.

The Ukraine is the Russian way of referring to the country. That is why this has mostly disappeared in western media. In German many countries get an article so the translation is indeed tricky as it puts back something in English that refers to something the Ukranians requested to be removed.

But in German it is indeed the normal way of referring to countries. You also provided an eloquent response… keep being awesome!

Pretty funny come to think of this… I can imagine stuff like this can really blow out of proportion in official talks.

Oh pipe down. Biden has been tasked with trying to undo the continuous damage the GOP guided by Trump are doing to the international stability.

Under Trumps influence the world has dramatically destabilized and everyone is rearming. Old conflicts are brewing, the political right is on the rise.

And everyone is seeing on display that the so called greatest country on earth is inept in holding a former president accountable for an insurrection he manufactured.

During trump’s presidency the world has seen the blatant lies or alternative facts and how much they pay off… every accusation they make is an admission.

Narcissists and psychopaths are having a field day being out and open, since their emperor has shown that if you are brazen enough, noone can touch you.

But go ahead… spin your narrative.

A situation a human would have easily navigated.

This whole alpha testing driverless vehicles on the public road is bullshit.

Badeendje, 13 days ago

If there are tests on public roads, there should be independent government oversight financed by a fee on the company testing. Not to mention there should be special insurance by the company.

The government should mandate telemetry, reporting and safety precaution standards that have to be followed. This will allow the government to also learn as these systems become more commonplace.

But that is my opinion.

Nah, these organizations have been gutted over the years in the name of small government. To the point that they do not have the Manpower to actually properly regulate or oversee.

I’m talking about a dedicated team of specialists that oversee these kind of processes. These specialists don’t come cheap.

The fee is paid to the federal government and should be sufficient for the government to finance the oversight of innovation like this.

Just fines.

If this intervenes early enough it might.
