You guys are sanctioning the International Criminal Court, just saying

I think they call them customers, to be honest.

It’s pretty normal to need different ID cards to use some services in the EU.

You need student ID for student tickets, on the train if there is a senior or a youth discount they check for ID.

If you are an EU citizen, your ID is valid everywhere in the EU, no passport needed.

Didn’t the US already capitulate?

Putin wasn’t always privileged IIRC. He was a taxi driver at one point, and I also wouldn’t call being a paper-pusher for the KGB a laid back no-stress lifestyle.

I think this is a reserve service, similar to the US national guard as opposed to the army.

Japan had an aircraft carrier fleet rivaling the US, better carrier fighter planes than the US, and were occupying a lot of China, who was a peer opponent. It also took a US-USSR alliance to take them down.

Russia on the other hand is able to wreak a lot of havoc, and is also good on some technological fronts, like drone warfare, espionage and ballistic missiles, but it has recently lost a lot of its fleet against an opponent with no navy, and is stuck in trench warfare with equipment that in WWII would be the equivalent of muskets.

This whole posturing is because Russia ran out of easily recruitable people, and needs internal justification to start throwing in conscripts as well.

Oh, BTW it’s “Wunderwaffe”, if you want a “Wunderwaffle”, go to Brussels, they put strawberries and cream on it so high it won’t fit in your mouth.

Oh yeah, the “peacekeepers” led by Trump and Tony Blair. Almost forgot about it.

Well really it’s “his” Gaza “peace” “accord” since Hamas hasn’t even signed yet IIRC? And Israel will break it either way, even if Trump did in fact win the PP, they can’t take it back, so let’s get back to the genocide.

Give it to Greta Thunberg

Truly a great indicator of the US economy’s health.

Tesla is 47.91% owned by institutions, not retail. Add Musk’s 12%, and that leaves retail at most 40%.

Tesla goes where institutions want it to go, since they are the only organised force on the market anyway.

Not really nowadays, from 13 years old they go back to school.

One of the recent ones is an MBA now.

Active actions are being done. If they weren’t, Orbán would be nice and cozy. He already had to go home from stirring shit in the EU by the way, and go campaigning, trying to salvage his rule.

People are involved by the way. The representatives of the new government will have primaries, which is a new for Hungary. And again, almost half a million people were out on the streets of Budapest on Pride, but tens of thousands of people protest on a normal week now, with actual events turning out hundreds of thousands.

And peaceful protests do work if they show that the admin is powerless to stop them and so many people are on board. Wait for the 23rd of October, that’ll be a big one.

There are thousands of self-organised groups all across the country, working the streets against Orbán as well.

It’s how democracies work.

April is the next election. Orbán is down in the polls, the big question now is whether the new government will get supermajority or just simply win.

And it’s not like the people of Hungary are waiting either. Orbán banned Pride. The result is the single biggest public event since 1956, four hundred thousand people turned out in a country of 8.5 million. He tried to fine people, but he was as powerless to do it as he was to stop Pride.

His events are drawing hundreds while the opposition’s are drawing hundreds of thousands.

At this point, Orbán is pathetic and not even able to appear in a public event, he either visits towns in secret, without telling the public in advance, or he outright closes out the public to speak only to his own press and people. And even there, he is slurring words, stuttering and sweating.

He fired his campaign staff who have been doing his campaigns for 20 years, and will likely fire the next guys as well.

And the EU fixing their bullshit regarding Hungary will not “take a while”. It happened 3 years ago. They sanctioned him, sanctions work, this is the result. People have started to look up and see the problem. It’s done and nothing can undo it.

Hungary may still have a very long way to go, but at least it will be free again.

Is this man the “master of Europe”, or a spent, used up tool of Putin? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-9ufkKMPOKs

That was the case under Merkel. Today’s standing is that Orbán is going to be deposed, and either flee the country or be jailed come April.

The EU is growing some balls at least, and turned off the money taps a few years ago.

What

I stand corrected. Thanks.

And I want a Pilatus PC-12 for free with no maintenance costs, but life is more complicated than that.

MS hasn’t released an Office version outside 365 for 8 years.

365 is Office for them.
