We are too dumb to elect someone else, though. And IMO, Merz isn’t that much worse than his party colleagues, his party (and all other German rightwing parties) just sucks, and Germans are definitely not voting less rightwing these days.

The trouble is that on a lot of topics, the German government and especially Merz’ party clearly aren’t interested in independence. It’s very obvious with digital services.


Modern electric car batteries are evidently not that fragile, they just have reduced capacity at low tempertures.
But rye doesn’t have any bitter herbs …
I wish it was bread-flavored. Bread doesn’t usually taste like bitter herbs.
Man könnte ja anderen dabei helfen, ebenfalls unabhängig zu werden! Ist aber leider sehr schwierig, Leute davon zu überzeugen. Viele benutzen ja nicht einmal freiwillig Adblocker, selbst man sie ihnen installiert.


Reportedly, Russia has staged quite a few sabotage acts in Germany in the last few years. So, what do these idiots hope to achieve? A paycheck.
I have to admit that I’m not fully clear on what Russia tries to achieve with these, they aren’t that good at making us believe that it’s been some local group (which they definitely tried to a couple of times) and the acts aren’t really big enough to sway the German government on sanctions.
Vielleicht hat er da einfach zugegeben, dass er untot ist?
Ich war verwirrt, weil du “nich” statt “noch” geschrieben hast …


They do have a lot of cheap, low-carbon electricity because their geography is great for hydro. Evidently that weighs heavier than the reduced battery capacity, plus the median Norwegian is fairly wealthy compared to the median Brit or German, which would help a lot even if Norway didn’t have huge tax incentives for electric cars.


Yes and no. It seems Tesla is still more popular in the UK than in e.g. Germany, but it’s about the third-most popular electric car brand in the UK while it has been number one in Norway for 5 years. UK’s population is ~10 times higher than Norway’s.
Also, Brazil is IN America …


I’m German and it still mystifies me. It’s really hard to explain why most other European countries got the memo that Musk, and by extension Tesla, sucks, even though e.g. Germany or France definitely have a lower average English proficiency than Norway.


Norwegians are pretty much the only Europeans who keep buying Tesla.
I imagine it depends a lot on the kinds of spaces you hang out in. I’d assume that yaoi was more popular than yuri in 2010s tumblr.


Yeah, this kind of thing sucks. Everyone has to be worse off because a few shitheads can’t contain themselves.


They literally already made a law to ban it for next time.


Der Kommentar sagt im Prinzip, dass man überhaupt nicht sparen soll. Das ist offensichtlicher Unsinn.
69 being the old funny number in anglophone culture is pretty weird, considering that US men are much less likely to perform cunnilingus than European men (according to surveys, which are usually biased in some ways).
And I never really got the impression that it’s only men who would perform cunnilingus who make 69 jokes.
