and “killing the baby”, you mean like later in life to eat?
At least in the Netherlands, the species of dairy cows are focused on dairy. If a bull is born it is raised for about half a year, then slaughtered and most often the meat is exported since calf meat isn’t popular here.
At that point they are basically still babies, or at least the meat is called “calf meat”.
I used ‘reader mode’, or whatever it’s called, on Firefox and that worked well.
Would love the UK back. Besides wanting it to be easier to travel there, I think it is also the best way to show how beneficial the EU is. If they already want back in after such a short period of time it sends a strong message to the many anti-EU people across the continent.

A coalition without the PVV would be kind of ideal for Wilders. He can keep bitching about how undemocratic the other parties are (obviously it’s not undemocratic but his voters won’t understand that) and won’t have to come up with any ideas. He can remain anti-everything and wait until the fragile coalition will inevitably fall, after which he’ll win 50 seats in parliament.
As much as I would hate to see Wilders as prime minister, I would perhaps worry more about the next elections if he can remain in the opposition.
I understand what you’re saying and I think this is what happened in Denmark, but I disagree.
We just can’t normalize xenophobia. My partner and I are of different nationalities and races and we’ve both been immigrants. Our future kids will be mixed race and might seem foreign regardless of where they live.
I don’t want to live in a society in which we normalize hatred for immigrants. I want everyone to feel welcome, I want everyone to feel like they belong.
Of course with left-leaning parties this small many foreigners already feel unwelcome, but if even left-leaning parties start with this hateful rhetoric… I would lose all hope and probably just leave. I wouldn’t feel safe to live here with my family.
Since when can the VVD be trusted??
No single party has had over half the seats in Dutch parliament in my lifetime… maybe ever? I don’t even know, maybe in the 50s or before world war II.
It might surprise you but we haven’t had continuous elections for the last 80 years…
I think you simply lack some fundamental understanding of parliamentary systems.
The claim that this is bad for the Dutch economy is nonsense. A huge number (probably most) Schiphol passengers are using the airport for a layover. They aren’t staying in the Netherlands, they’re not spending money there (at most some coffee or something but it’s duty free), and it doesn’t create many well paying jobs for people living in the Netherlands.
Most of the money Schiphol brings in stays in the pockets of people who are already rich and the jobs it creates are mostly poorly paid (like luggage handlers, staff at shops, etc). There’s plenty of open vacancies for jobs like that already, we don’t need an extremely loud and polluting industry for that.
Schiphol is too big as it is. The Netherlands is a small country and it doesn’t need such a huge airport. Why does Amsterdam need to be some hub for Europeans to fly across the world or to connect the Americas and Asia? Why must the Netherlands be even more polluted to make traveling slightly more convenient mostly for foreigners?
As a happy user, I highly appreciate the ongoing development!
That’s great! Glad it’s working out.
One thing made me chuckle though:
with only 4 gigabytes of RAM
Am I just old or is 4GB actually loads of RAM?
Don’t care he was cheating, and the fact he was president is only relevant to explain the imbalance of power. It was immoral because he abused his power; he was a boss who took advantage of his intern.

That’s not how you use €
The whole article is in English so it makes total sense to use it they way they did. The € sign doesn’t determine where it goes, the language does. In Dutch it would also be €10, not 10€.
Politically also a non-brainer, right? I would think the vast majority of voters would be in favour of higher wages for teachers. All over the world teachers don’t get paid enough and I don’t understand what the objections are to paying them more. Sure it costs money, but a highly educated new generation will pay that back manifold. Not to mention it’s obviously the right thing to do to pay people a decent wage.

I pay with a normal card but I’d say the majority of people around me pay with their phone.
Also, I need to use my bank app to pay for things online. I scan a QR code and confirm the payment with a pin or fingerprint. Correct me if I’m wrong but I think many bank apps also don’t work properly with graphene.
Edit: maybe I’m getting confused, I thought bank apps normally needed google play services and that because of that they don’t work on grapheneOS, but I don’t know if that’s correct
