No. The problem with DB are not the trains or the personnel on the trains. The problem is that the tracks are in miserable condition and that they are operated in a terrible way. The fault in this case is 100% with DB. Nobody else is to bla

I am sorry, but "you are dumb" is not an argument. I just do not care about the law at all+. Far too often have I seen justice abused in the name of the law. Any appeal to some supposed legality just rings entirely hollow. Either

Do you think that such a deportation would make the US more or less appealing for immigration? After all, every immigrant has to suspect that they might become a target of such an enforcement action as well.

As a European I am not particularly invested in how the US legal system wants to protect non-citizens "rights". I just hope that the EU learns how effective immigration deterrence looks and can make the appropriate legal changes,

Sure, if you can think of better deterrents for migration and better ways to deport more people, then those should be tried as well. Right now I think these measures are extremely effective, especially at deterrence and I do not see what yo

OpenSCAD is very cool, but completely unusable once you understand how great state of the art CAD Software like Fusion or Onshape is. The big distinction is that those work implicitly , while OpenSCAD requires you to be implicit.
