in the English speaking world...

FAZ, Der Spiegel, NZZ earn money, too and their market is way more restricted.


Subscribing to FAZ is closer to getting a new phone line or a gym membership than paying for a newspaper. Do they accept credit card now?

OS will be cheaper. No monopoly rendite + development across more shoulders.

ehm,

Poland has a steady grow and might leap the UK in the nearby future. UK does not have grow per Capita since Brexit. Hungary is poor because Orban is corrupt and corruption is bad for economy.


>Poland has a steady grow

Can nobody read anymore? I said "poorest people". You can easily have a growing GDP like Poland while more and more people can't afford to pay bills anymore. The GDP going up graph is meaningless for that.


Usually growing means a better living standard the general population and I think this easily applies for Poland.

Could you provide a source for " You can easily have a growing GDP like Poland while more and more people can't afford to pay bills anymore. ", Mister "Nobody can read anymore"



I had known about the OpenDesk, but the Sovereign Tech Fund is new to me. Glad to hear that it exists...

Does anyone know if the German govt has mandated the use of OPenDesk (and its like) across its internal use? I faintly recall there being a Linux distro (?) that was supported by German fed?


Have Germany supplanted office for these alternatives?

It’s super cool they exist, if they’re not used… I mean, it’s still super cool they exist?


" And decarbonisation means nuclearisation. Which Europe has been moving in the opposite direction on " source? And I mean, more than "Germany phase out nuclear stations."

1.) r/europe discussed this news as well 2.) There is lack of European social media to discuss it there :P 3.) Actually this meeting mentioned in the article was big on German news. Every news outlet mentioned it, long articles etc. so it was discussed at least in Germany

Singapore is a very racist place and has an authoritarian regime.

Why is Europe being outdone by authoritarian racists? Singapore started out as a little shithole in the corner of Malaysia, nothing particularly special to start from and a long ways from any rich country to trade with, maybe you can learn something from the racists.

1.) Someone complains about racism in Europe. In this regard Singapore is not an alternative. 2.) Sure European countries can learn something from Singapore or China. But definitely not on topics like racism and freedom of press. 3.) Was Singapore a shithole place giving its location? I doubt it because it started as a harbour where location matters. On the other hand Singapore government was quiet capable. So very interwined topic and longer discussion is needed.

1.) In Germany without subsidies coal would phase out because it is too expensive. e.g. In western Germany since the 70s. 2.) People are Much more reluctant for coal mining anyway as it destroys lots of landscape.

So, no coal has no future in Germany


In addition: the same chomsky who wanted to send Ukraine into oblivion?

Thiel recently called Greta Thunberg the anti - christ. Thiel is maybe crazy as Musk. at least he is not an authorative source.

Besides the soure what does he mean with all of Europe: Berlin? London? Paris? Estonia? Sweden? The start up eco system is fragmented / decentralised. I doubt Thiel is a good overview and he argues probably not in good faith anyway.


Zero to 1 was good.

But I generally have a hard time thinking any person's opinion is some sort of fact.

However, it kind of tracks with my understanding.
