All true, but you know: The US puts tariffs on everyone, everyone else “only” has to deal with the US. We even just made a new trade deal with half of South America. That has to be worth something, if we have to cut off the US?! Well, in practice it is now complicated because our politicians are a bit slow to recognize that the US might not be the strong partner anymore, that we had for the last 80 years. But even they will get there eventually, I hope
Even for the Nobel Price Committee to some degree. I will be interested in what their reaction will be.

Yes, Wero would be a PayPal replacement, but I highlighted “widely accepted” for a reason. So far I didn’t see a single online shop where I could use it for payment. Also most banks don’t support it. As long as it stays that way, it is close to useless to me.
Also we need european alternatives to Visa and MasterCard, which Wero doesn’t even aim to be.
All in all: There ist still a long way to go… :(
All I want is some widely accepted and easy to use payment method, that I can use instead of american companies like Visa/MasterCard/PayPal. If the digital euro gets us there, let’s go!
I was about to say. Couldn’t imagine an LLM would be great at stuff like this.
How did nobody mention “Master and Commander”? It’s so good!
I 100% agree with you but I have a hard time convincing my team of that. And so we have a mess of a codebase… It’s not directly important to business, so it is secondary. And obviously nobody notices when fixing bugs take way longer or implementing new features introduces more new bugs than necessary, as it always has been like that. 🤷♂️
My only problem with vsauce is that they post only once every 2 years now. But when a new video drops I still like it a lot.
To work around that, just need to book a connection where the last train only goes once an hour (or every 30 minutes or something) with a connecting time of like 10 minutes. Then you can claim a refund even if the original train is delayed for less than one hour. Remember: The relevant part is the total delay at the destination, not delays of individual trains.
At this point I’m literally surprised when my train arrives in time. Recently I took one and even the train personnel went like “We will arrive 1 minute early, no idea how that happened”. At least it means you can almost always calculate with some partial refund😂
Or put another way: While there are bad things coming from the EU, there are actually often also pretty good things coming from it. It’s all relative of course, but I also can’t see another place where I would rather live.
FREUDE
Looking at the polls anything leftish seems highly unlikely to me (at least right now). Die Linke is doing well relative to their own results from the past, but in absolute terms they poll still only slightly above 10% and the other parties that could be part of a progressive coalition are not doing much better.
That being said, the next election is scheduled to be in 2029, so who knows what will happen until then. We can always hope! 🤷♂️
I almost never came across a restaurant without physical menus here in Germany🤔
Yeah, usually ties in ranking mean that some places are just skipped. So it (w|sh)ould be 1,2,3,3,3,6,7,8, etc
Never underestimate what people can get confused about. People will also still buy veggie burgers expecting them to have meat, after they would be relabeled eventually.
It worked for oat milk. I’m buying “no milk” all the time 😅
Ich will die Ampel zurück. Die haben wenigstens ab und zu was cooles gehabt. 😢
I will lose my shit if the EU now agrees to an even shittier deal🫠
