People complain and call censorship when Google pulls down or removes some results. People complain when Google doesn't hide or pull down some other results. This may be the first time in a while that I defend Google, but it can't

If I lived in China, I would rather be spied by the USA, and not by the Chinese government. But since I live in the "west", I'd rather be spied by China and Russia, than by the USA or any of their allies and vassals. That bei

Hey, you found a typo, and that made me learn a new English word. Thanks for being a spelling-nazi :)

That means the data of US enemies is much safer than the data of US vassals^H allies.

Now, let's have other countries doing the same to Meta, Google, Microsoft and the likes. They all collect the data and send them to a foreign country (USA). They also use their algorithms to manipulate public meaning and to censor oppo

What should they do to be taken seriously? Just hit the Washington D.C once? On the other hand, do you really think any nuclear power, be it Russia, USA, China, would allow being defeated in an existential war and just dissolve without brin

You are referring to the USA here. In most parts of Europe / EU it's actually still illegal for vendors to discriminate on price based on the type of payment.

by miroljub 3y ago
It's the legislation that disallows vendors to have different pricing based on the payment system that disaligns the incentives. If I have a card that gives back 2% to me, back causes 5% fees to the vendor, both of us would be better o

What city? Striking any city on Russian soil will provoke a full on retaliation of the USA. Equivalent retaliation would be targeting a city of some of the Russian allies, but it's not possible since Russia doesn't have allies ;)

You mean the USA will launch nuclear missiles on Moscow in case Russia launches a missile on Stockholm? NATO or not, I have my doubts here. Does anyone believe any sane US president would risk a destruction of the USA to revenge / prot

Frog the company perspective, your cost is what they have to pay to get you. That's where the supply & demand gets decided. Everything that reduces your net compensation from that amount comes effectively from your pocket. Company

Hey, back in the time I was recording ZX Spectrum games broadcasted once a week over one of the radio stations. Commodore 64 owners were jealous of us, since this couldn't work with C64 due to different tape recording system.

The limit is ~900 € per month, not ~400 €. People frequently forget the employer matching, which at the end comes from your pocket, since it's mandatory. Also Freelancers and self-employed need to pay full contribution of 900 €, not &q

That's just something they tell you during your election campaign. The truth is a bit different, USA is good at promissing and forcing other to do, but it did very little, compared to own GDP and military abilities. Money: - EU - 85,0

Why does this surprise you? Russia just can't afford another Lenin during the war. Or another Yeltsin. The last thing they need now is a fight for supremacy, similar to what we have in Ukraine, that would cripple their war effort and b

Yes, it's much better when your eastern neighbours and an adversary hold you a hostage. With the help of your oversea "friend".
