The trade war with China could be a turning point. Right now the Chinese are still relying on US tech but what happens if they actually manage to become self sufficient? What if those data centres at the Tibetan Plateau no longer needs Nvid

If I was a police detective in the US I would be pretty angry at the notion of a bunch of rural weekend warriors taking over my job. I mean if it was this easy why was the police created at all? We've always had soldiers.

This mode of operation is completely the reverse of my country the Netherlands. In Dutch society it doesn't really matter who the current ruling party is the big machine keeps rolling on. The names change frequently- governments keep t

And now some people want to reshore polluting heavy industry... When the Netherlands and Germany got rich enough the first thing that happened was cleaner rivers!

Okay this may sound weird but Starbucks was the first place that allowed customers to plug in their phone and laptop chargers and that's what made me go there!

Starbucks was a novelty in the Netherlands of the mid 90s but Dutch people are masters in assimilating and adapting foreign ideas and there are several competing chains now.

Reminds me of some proposals to pay people for having kids. The kind of folks who will take that offer are more likely to be terrible parents.

I hate betting but even I can't avoid taking a chance on the big new year's lottery. Chance of winning is virtually nil of course.

I have no doubt that if they could fill the plane with 200 business class travelers they would. But that group simply isn't big enough outside of routes to New York or Shanghai. The 747 became the queen of the skies because it carried

I got an email from the train company that according to their records I had a delay and they put a link in it to a online form to get my money back. I was positively surprised at their proactive communication. The money was on my account wi

If the EU had balls it would block American AI just as China told Google to fuck off. It would also stop the brain drain.

They made cold calling illegal in my country. Also you cannot just sell customer data. It made an entire industry disappear and nobody mourned. But I'm sure some American lawyer would call that a breach of the constitution.

Not at all unusual. In Europe we have 500 year old buildings that need constant renovations. Finish one part of the building and the next part needs doing. And on and on it goes.

There is always someone willing to work for a dollar. That doesn't mean we should abolish the minimum wage to exploit desperation. Gig workers are just bullshit countries invented to hide unemployment. They don't ad anything to th

Americans always talk about how they have the second amendment to stand up to tyrannical government. Meanwhile tank man had a shopping bag.

Fascinating I live in a country were nobody has been thinking about Christianity since the 1960s. It's like Americans speak an entirely different language.

Football clubs have a billion eurodollar budget that they need to pay for. And how do they do that? With TV licensing. I live in the Netherlands and everyone here has accepted that a Dutch club will never again get into a Championship Leagu

Yeah this is exactly it. They try to claim some moral high ground but the reality is that they ARE distributing copyright content. You can argue the law is wrong but you can't argue that IA isn't trampling it.

Exactly I find it a weird name. In my country the government has an organisation that archives everything ever released in the country in climate controlled vaults. If somebody wants to read a 17th century newspaper they can.

For us Westerners our highway system was already pretty much complete by the 1980s so none of us actually remember how it went. But when we see pictures in historybooks you will see sprawling construction sites with bulldozers...

I think many women were happy that they could get an education and job to make their life more interesting besides being the house slave of their husband.

Keeping the middle class distracted with racism is what the elite does very well.

Lol yeah but your average male tech bro doesn't even think about what this means for women. It doesn't even register.

I was really disappointed by this. Do Americans have no dignity or ego? Are they so conditioned to fall in line with a leader?
