They had them fooled. I'm pretty sure it's unalive ammo

I love how it goes completely over Trump's orange, balding head, that NATO leadership talks to him as if he was a child

Thr German Constitutional Court ruled something like this as well (regarding EU financial policies, EU bonds). The consequences? Well you have to change your national law, push the EU to change the policies, or eventually face consequences. This conflict is not resolved yet afaik, but otherwise it's business as usual

Can't wait for it to be illegal to have a custom ROM Android with some FOSS messenger in your pocket and then for the first major breach, leaking all private messenges of some rich motherfuckers ending the practice again

In fairness to him, the number of people killed by police *is* rising and there *are* nazi cops. Still, can't pull the trigger in Germany without an investigation and nazis can/do get kicked out of the police just for being one

Don't you hate on donkeys! They are an excellent mean of transportation on tough terrain. I don't know in what context russia uses them, but the US do so too :D

They had a luxurious outing in some big-oil palace. It's hard work man, they had to literally, very briefly, walk through the desert

I hate the CxU as much as anyone else, but as far as my understanding goes, and in fairness to them, the 5-year plan is still more generous than what most other countries offer

So supporting far-right narratives and being blatantly populistic only to then backtrack on a lot they have said doesn't seem to work out for the conservatives? Wow, colour me surprised, no one could have seen this coming, my flabber is totally gasted

The problem is that it's not as profitable as renewables. If you push this, it will be at the cost of those.

It's more expensive than the alternatives, and comes with additional downsides. There is no good reason to be pro nuclear, unless you need a lot of power for a long time in a tight space. So a ship or a space station for example.

Which outlines why you don't do majority-vote politics. There is zero interest by private entities to restart nuclear in Germany. Why? Because it makes zero sense.
No one wants to front the money, no one wants to buy overpriced nuclear power, no one wants the waste, no one wants a responsibility for decades and I bet you, if you asked the people on the poll whether they want to live near a plant or waste facility, almost everyone is going to say no.
The sole reason for (modern) nuclear power is high reliability at very low emissions and much energy per space. You know what can also do this? A battery.
If you want to install state-of-the-art molten salt SMRs as high-reliability baseline supply for network infrastructure and hospitals, go for it. But don't try to sell me a super expensive water boiler as miracle technology.

Electromagnetic catapults are a "least concern" technology I would say, but that aside, currently our defence industries are intertwined. Thinking the EU is fully dependent on the US is delusional.
People are about to find out that even when the US often leads the way, there are also EU companies critical to US weapon systems.
Sure, you can "DIY" everything, but massively altering your supply chain is rarely a good idea. Will Orangeman realise that? We will see.

Good luck. If you don't pass as a refugee, you just need money, a job, a place to live and to prove all that to the central bureaucracy

Casual reminder that the DMA is not about trade wars, but monopolies
