Whoa there, you’re not just chugging the kool-aid, you’re disseminating it. Saying that Hamas has less than a total hatred of Jews and the will to render all of historical Palestine judenfrei is just pouring fuel on the fire.

Disclaimer for the dense: I oppose Israel’s genocide of Palestinians as would any decent human being.

Es geht um den vergangenen Abstimmungssonntag.

Kann nicht in OPs Namen sprechen, aber es scheint mir, als würde er sowohl ausfallende Einnahmen vom Handel mit Putin u.ä. (🙄), als auch die verpassten Ersparnisse in der Landwirtschaft (🤷) bemängeln.

Gill Jabes says the thing you’ve invested in and doesn’t seem to generate any profit is actually a billion-kills strong unregulated golem, and that’s why there is no profit.

I didn’t read the article. How right am I?

… ich geh dann mal wieder

The first picture is of the new US Army standard M7 (formerly XM5) assault rifle. I’ve never used it, but have only heard bad things from people who know much more than me.

The second one is of an improvised land drone using an old, widely available, and reliable machine gun. Iirc it’s Ukrainian and similar to the one that held Avdiivka for so long.

I’ve read about shotguns rigged to a makeshift CIWS solution having good results. It might just be the precursor to something proper.

To another reply in this thread: The problem with laser weapons is that they’re expensive and fragile. I’d be interested in tech breakthroughs on this front too…

First time I saw someone with that line-in-circle-in-triangle tattoo, I straight up asked if she was a conspiracy theorist. By now, I’d be happy to hear a “yes”… 🙄

9/10 times it’s a legit problem, the neighbour would just ask you nicely. If some nutjob writes you an invoice, you can safely ignore it. Going through someone’s trash and photographing indentifying information on the other hand is a felony, so OOP might’ve just found a way to finance that lawyer for themselves.

But this is one side of a story in which the neighbour went from 0 to lawyer with no warning and OOP (presumed innocent and tidy) is apparently fed up with the entire country because of that. Seems to me pretty escalatory by the only side presenting the narrative.

So giving the benefit of the doubt to the othe side: if you are a messy tenant and do not listen to reason, good riddance to you.

Sieht so aus, als hättest du 0 Reue und wolltest quasi nur die Konsequenzen minimieren.

Was erwartest du jetzt von uns? Unterstützung? Los, Joachim, klau dir was du willst, deine Diebeskollegen haben’s dir ja vorgemacht… 😮‍💨

Das ist eben die Scheisse, die irgendwie an allen (aber v.a. den Gegnern) vorbeigezogen ist: Ecopop '14 hatte noch 75% Nein und nun ist die Diskussion fest im politischen Mainstream.

Bis zur nächsten Initiative, die sicher keine 12 Jahre auf sich warten lässt, wird sie noch genug verwässert für eine knappe Mehrheit oder Teile davon werden sonstwie implementiert.

Aber die SP&GPS ruht sich lieber auf imaginären Lorbeeren aus, statt etwas dafür zu tun, diesen Trend wieder zu wenden…

Yea, was meaning to say just this. Pride was never “gone”, and the clearest proof of this was still under Orbán’s rule, where participating was still an act of resistance to the government. It might become smaller, more chill now.

It’s been mentioned, but this is just a horrible title for the article. Bottom line: Japanese pubs for locals are struggling, because the locals themselves spend less time and money there —¹ for completely sensible reasons. Yea, they didn’t pivot to catering to foreigners to save their businesses, but there is no mention of xenophobia being the reason. Guess we’ve gotta ragebait somehow 🤷.

Pffft, der töttötöröö-song bekannt von Sylt ist der einzige, der verbannt gehört.

Wetten, der kommt noch an diesem Volksfest vor, mit 1000 Mitsingenden in 3+ Videos von anderen Gästen.

My dude, they can’t even protect a clinic. How do you suppose your proposed quarantine be enforced?

Wow. Hard enough to find common ground in a conflict this complex, but congrats.

I think you’ve managed to unite every decent person in the sentiment that you are straight concentrated shite and the less people hear from you, the better off they are.

Go die.

Exactly. If Orbáns past failures had been as over-reported as his posturing, people would be way less surprised about his current democratic loss.

According to an eyewitness, someone held a champagne bottle with a burning Roman candle in it too close to the ceiling (iirc she was already high up on someone’s shoulders), causing a quick deflagration through the wooden structure.

Here’s an article with a picture showing the sparks igniting what seems to be very shoddily installed, uncovered isolation foam.

ITT: people judging the vote and the voters by the magnanimous title alone.

The initiatives were worded and implemented so poorly, that it wouldn’t surprise me if the initiants wanted to lose both these votes.

1. The inheritance tax would have caused mass nationalisations and it had pegged the tax proceeds to go towards climate goals instead of let’s say the federal pension fund deficit (AHV-Loch). It would be incorrect to state that the voters don’t support an inheritance tax or climate goals based on this vote.
2. The “service citoyen” proposal would have made some kind of civil or military service mandatory for all, but would have essentially reduced the military to a volunteer force, which would be socially unacceptable. The Swiss have a historically repeatedly confirmed will to keep a citizen’s militia as the country’s only security force.

Your point is valid but less relevant. Lithium is an alkali metal found in different sources than rare earths, with Australia and South America producing the most.

Rare earths are expensive to refine which is why western mines and refineries have been outcompeted by China. If we were to subsidise local production we’d have an abundance, e.g. from Scandinavia.
