Unfortunately not true. When I look at how many people have been voting on the right recently. For example among AfD voters in Germany (which got 30% in some areas), Trump is still very popular. The cancer is rampant here too.

German is wrong. Its Quak.

Linux has helped me rediscover my love for computers. And the many small and larger hobby projects I can now embark on because of it do in fact help with my mental health.

thanks, that was very interesting! i could listen to him for hours.

A secret service that protects its own people instead of taking every opportunity to spy on them. remarkable.

Couple of years back i stumbled over this video, which i as a german think is absolutely fucked up: https://youtu.be/DjX7zoFrd7g?si=6BtMIxqTxtdAYHvi

Quote from the Wiki about the “Young Marines”

The creed that every Young Marine lives by is:

• Obey my parents and all others in charge of me whether young or old.
• Keep myself neat at all times without other people telling me to.
• Keep myself clean in mind by attending the church of my faith.
• Keep my mind alert to learn in school, at home, or at play.
• Remember that having self-discipline will enable me to control my body and mind in case of an emergency.

Its absolute insane what they do to this kids: https://www.instagram.com/means_tv/reel/C7T93trOtg3/

I just want to add that the HAARP conspiracy theories are way older. i read about it mid of the 90s. Already back then it was a weather control machine / earthquake generator / mind control device / magnetic pole flipper.

How the fuck is it not extremely illegal to tell (or even force) someone to work when there is an official evacuation order?

Fully agree. I have been able to collect some signatures among my friends and relatives (in Germany). Unfortunately, I don’t know how I could help in other countries / languages. At most with upvotes of the relevant posts and in general spread the word.

And I have just noticed that the initiative’s website (https://www.tax-the-rich.eu/) with all the important information is only available in 6 languages. Polish is not included. That could be a reason. Things like this are an oversight we need to address (next time…).

I don’t get whats going on with e.g. Poland. Like literally I don’t understand it. Under 5%. Is this a cultural thing? Or was it simply not promoted enough?

Meanwhile france close to 200 freaking percent. Germany 150.

It’s completely incomprehensible to me how something like this can’t be massively successful. We should already have three times the necessary votes by now

everyone who donated $1,000 or more, we give an original piece of a downed russian strike aviation

made in russia and recyled in Ukraine

I fucking love those guys

How does someone deserve to be paid for work done? Is that your question?

Is this some kind of pathetic troll attempt?

I will not reward that with further attention.

You are aware that there are full-time developers working at Mozilla, yes? Developing a browser is not a hobby-project that you can pull off with some volunteers in their free time. You need professionals that work on such a giant project with their full attention.

Developing Firefox is their job. And of course they want to get paid for that (and deserve it). Just like you get paid for your actual job.

Do you think developers don’t have to eat? or pay rent? And donations alone do not cut it.

Nah, impossible. Its max 5 years or so…

I just quit my 270 000$ job at Coinbase to join the first YCombinator fall batch with my cofounder @not_nang. We’re building PearAI, an open source AI code editor.

Of course it is a cryptobro…

Yep, already hate that guy. Talks and behaves like an absolute dipshit.

My wording was poorly chosen. You are right of course. Its not a waste in that sense. But when better alternatives are available, which will hopefully soon achieve an acceptable level of efficiency, it makes no sense to build more. Apart from the space problem.

Pumpspeicherkraftwerke. We have 31 of them in germany. Which is pretty much the maximum possible because you can’t build them just everywhere. And quick search says these things are economically unsustainable because of the extremely high construction costs but very low revenues. It is wasted money.
