It can be hard to imagine in today's world, but the EU seems to still adhere to their regulations and democratic processes. It might be very slow, but I take a democratically triggered thorough report over instantaneous posts on X.

And "may have" is very likely just diplomatic speech for "has", when you're not in a position to directly accuse (Kalas is just a diplomat, not a foreign minister or such).

Offshore wind is a fraction of the cost, with none of the downsides of nuclear (getting fuel and getting rid of fuel). And the UK is literally surrounded by seas.

And don't start giving me that "baseload" garbage. There'll always be enough wind spread across the country to power everything two times over and stool come out cheaper.

The claim seems really stupid, but I wanted to get some more information about wind speed reductions caused by turbines. I found this article that explicitly mentions the North Sea:

Researchers at Technische Universität Braunschweig and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) have studied the wind speed reduction effect in large wind farms along the North Sea coast. The result? The wind blows more slowly for up to 70 kilometres behind the offshore wind farms.

That is a fairly long distance, which does require a bit of coordination close to the borders, but nothing more.

In 1959, after successful lobbying by the Gorsedd of Bards and others, Queen Elizabeth II made the red dragon on a green and white background the official flag for Wales.

Exactly. Theres literally random unpaved roads crossing the borders. They don't even have signs telling you that you just crossed the border. Like this wonderful bridge connecting Germany to France: https://www.google.com/maps/place/X3QR%2BX3+Salmbacher+Passage,+67160+Salmbach,+Frankreich/

(There's a photosphere there, if want to have a look)

Which is why criticism of Israel is explicitly allowed as per the (legally forced!) guidelines above. Which incidentally includes your comment as well.

But apparently you cannot be a critic of Israel unless you call for it's eradication.

What are you talking about? That is the official flag of the country of Wales. Just because it's part of the United kingdom doesn't make this flag any less official.

I've seen an article about submerged concrete spheres being used as pump energy storage. Here's the relevant press release.

75% efficiency seems pretty decent considering you're not as reliant on geographical locations (or at least get a lot more options)

How does bologna only score 49% for the speed limit, when the entire city was switched to 30 in January 2024. they even mention that project themselves.

Did they use older data for some reason? Then why title it 2025?

To be fair: it's really hard to notice of you are completely bound in your right eye, which the BfV traditionally tends to be.

Small correction: the NPD was not banned because they were largely irrelevant. They had little to no influence on politics, which is why the court argued that a ban would be inappropriate.

Cultural and media affairs will be steered by **Wolfram Weimer**, a well-known journalist and publisher

!Meme of Axel Springer awarding a medal to Axel Springer

(The guy used to be editor in chief of Welt, which belongs to the same infamous Axel Springer publishing house as Politico)

Just so everyone knows what kind of guy this is, I'll just go and translate a direct quote of his from 2018, that is found on his German Wikipedia article:

The term "climate denier" has been used by red-green (note: this refers to Social Democrats and the Green party) people for years to stigmatize people that dare to doubt the theory of man-made climate change in its claim to be absolute. Thee term "climate denier" is meant to kill open discussion because it is reminiscent of "Holocaust denier".

Laws banning the mislabeling of products? A.k.a. label fraud?

People tend to underestimate the need for speaking German in Germany though. Depending on your location and social circle, you might not need much of it day to day. But certain administrative stuff definitely requires a decent understanding (and you really don't want to misunderstand letters from the government).

Afaik, TEMU is only a broker between hundreds of exporters and the customer (who is also the importer). Banning the exporter of basically useless, they just reopen under a new name.

Best we can do is allowing people to call Höcke a "right-wing extremist" without being sued for defamation.

Moscow has 11 million inhabitants. That's half the Soviet losses in WWII, which were insanely high.

It's about the total losses of the Axis powers over the spam of the entire war.

What the fuck are you talking about?

That sounds like a reasonable amount of nukes. If the threat of losing one or two major cities isn't deterrent enough, were in absolute lunatic territory anyways, and no amount of more nukes will deter any further.

Offtopic: I think this was the first time I actually used my eID I activated two years ago to log in to anything (\#Neuland). Had to look up the PIN, but other than that it worked nicely.
