I'm having that issue now on my Pixel 9, and I had it before on Pixel 6. My wife mockingly claims that it's me that keeps breaking the ports, but I've never had this issue on earlier phones.

No, that's the member states' problem, not of the EU. The debt is not shared.

That would be a horrible deal for the Greenlanders, and they know it - there were polls recently and Vance was pretty much told that when he visited there. The US is allowed for decades to have a military presence on Greenland, but the US A

I'm late for this comment, but finding a recreational team sport club in your area is what I could recommend. You have immediately something in common with everyone and it's a healthy exercise.

They would have declined, as it's obviously a bad deal. European TV channels are interviewing Greenlanders these days asking the same question. They don't want it. Furthermore, what you are suggesting is literally a mafia practice

You could have used the example of Ireland before. They score extremely well on GDP, and yet the quality of life of an average Irish person is on par with the rest of the Western Europe, with the costs of housing pressuring everything else.

That progress in India comes as an excuse to weaken their democratic institutions. The fallacy is that Modi is to praise - the progress comes mostly because of enormously positive global trends developed in the past decades, the ones that a

Two points: 1) GDP is, while very important, not the only measure of country's prosperity And 2) how much of those 13.3% is being hoarded by a single-digit amount of companies?

It seems you've registered this account a couple of months ago only to basically repeat this opinion over and over (sprinkled with some anti-science opinions on top). Really weird.

You are saying that very matter-of-factly, while that is not how it works here in the Netherlands, and probably also in other places in Europe. The reasoning being, the pension isn't an unemployment benefit, pension is a fund you spent

Of course, but that makes "help" a weasel word. They want to be able to sell their product, that they possibly strongly feel will help the buyers.

Russia is neither poor nor failing, and saying that is underestimating the real actual danger they present. Russia has vast natural resources and enough buyers for those resources even if the EU manages to completely stop (at significant co

This _is_ democracy. Europeans don't vote left and green. Those groups have only 235 seats in the EU parliament out of 720.

This is, unfortunately, what Europeans collectivelly voted for. In the EU Parliament, the Greens and center-left are both historically small, the liberals are also smaller than ever but they are moving ever to the right in a hope to keep vo
