Yeah that's what Trump doesn't get when he gets angry about wind power. The Netherlands is a rich country it doesn't need handouts from American oil companies pumping up a few million barrels of oil. What it needs is electric

Is that a strange premise most people use apps on their smartphone?

TomTom is now an app on smartphones. I still use it I can't stand Google maps and their annoying ads.

We're talking about 19th century laws. I feel bad for the judge. Normally it would be for Congress to figure this shit out but yeah they haven't been doing their job for years.

My brother is an artist and he's looking into an alternative to Insta. With the US going full into homophobia, Christianity and xenophobia it's time to divest from American social media.

America has vast natural gas reserves there's no need to invest. If your country has to import oil and gas there is a financial reason to change.

In the Netherlands gig economy workers weren't paying into the pension or unemployment system. The wheels move slowly but once they grind nothing can stop it. The self employed are being reintegrated into the Borg collective.

Microsoft tried to put their games on their own store but they crawled back to Steam. Honestly Windows is more open than MS haters give it credit for.

You realise that America was literally founded because of this? Your reasoning will inevitably lead to the dissolution of the country. Besides Montana receives tax payer money from the people living in those California mansions.

I live in a country that literally wouldn't exist if man didn't tame it 24/7. Funny enough it's also the only place in Europe that takes floods seriously.

It's all about the money. When you get down to it in a capitalist society someone downloading a cracked videogame is worse than a sexual abuse victim in the Philippines. Life is cheap.

A bunch of academic hippies were working on windmill power in the Netherlands in the 1970s. But with cheap and unlimited LNG it was considered a technical curiosity. Smart people did predict that gas would eventually run out but by then the

Pirating Office is as simple as downloading a GitHub script. Microsoft stopped giving a shit about it. Enterprise will pay.

Texas governor was in Acapulco and nobody blamed him. Anyway on topic an aunt of mine is a mayor of a small city (55k). Her opinion is that firefighters fight fires and having a politician walk around a disaster area with a hundred journali

Americans take it as an article of faith that everyone wants to live like they do. It must be utterly demoralising for anyone working at the US State department right now.

AMD is not sleeping. They publicly admitted that they threw in the towel- they have exited the high end market.

Well there two reasons here in the Netherlands. Some jobs are unworthy for Dutch people. Your Dutch nationality protects you from slavery. For this there are immigrants. The second reason is that we have a lot of people doing bullshit jobs

IDK about America but in my country this has been in the news for a while. It takes months for elevators at train stations to get fixed because there is a huge shortage of parts. And this means people in wheelchairs have to crawl down the s

It's really simple if you are rich you probably did an office job. You have personal coaches, eat healthy, always went to the doctor. You age like fucking Tom Cruise. But if you were a truck driver or construction worker you are OLD at

In the Netherlands media never names suspects. But it's more of a cultural thing people just mind their own business.

This so much. If America was serious about fighting China they would be signing free trade agreements with Asian countries and investing money into Africa. Instead Trump is angrily tweeting about how he's going to make everyone pay. T

Before things like the FBI and the telegraph it was quite common for Americans to find a new life in another state. You could be married in New York but nobody in Montana would know unless they actively started an investigation. The world h

Trump reminds me of a Star Wars quote "The more you tighten your grip, Tarkin, the more star systems will slip through your fingers" The reality is that China will not magically disappear and they have integrated themselves into t

Yes Indians come to Canada for jobs and money but keep their own culture. I always find it slightly bizarre. I have tried to explain that culture and economy are interlinked. India's inequality and superstitious beliefs will keep the

Seems to me American ISPs have a lot of political power. Not only do they want to extort money they also don't want to upgrade their infrastructure to give the service that the consumer wants.

European countries actually had industry policies in the 60s and 70s. But countries like Korea and Japan were always going to be cheaper. The Netherlands lost a LOT of many protecting the shipyards.
