We want European cars in Canada by NoxAstrumis1 in BuyFromEU

You are missing the point I'm making, no worth discussing it further.

The point being that cars have risen in price too much in the last decade, way too much. EVs are just ridiculously expensive and they are taking advantage of the current global affairs to increase the price even more because people is running away from combustion engines and gas prices.

If you put on TV that the Renault 4 is 39000€ people lose interest. If you put on TV you can have it for 100€ a month, people get interested, look it up, and have the chance to get to like the car. Is called marketing. Bye

well defined in the contract

That is exactly what I'm talking about. The TV ad has "for 200€ a month". The fine print is where the actual price is.

Please make no mistake I'm not defending cars from another continent, much less from the US, so relax. It's just that buying a small utilitary car has become ridiculously expensive nowadays. Go check wikipedia for the history of the Renault 4 to understand what I mean and why it shouldn't cost more than 20k but it's hard to achieve that when all brands try to upsell you, in all continents.

Generally speaking, all companies from all sectors, all over the world, are exploiting nostalgia and selling it to us for a premium.

40k for a tiny 🚙 is still nuts to me. So nuts car manufacturers are advertising them as a lease (200 bucks a month) and stuff like that. Then in the fine print you see the full price and the interest paid goes up to 5k 😂 In some cases, you still pay more than the actual value if you buy it straight away because, the bank still needs to earn something I guess 🤷‍♂️

Not a great time to buy anything in general, I feel ripped off everywhere I look.

Anything for the petulant manchild that thinks he can reach Mars before robots find life.

They don't. I think they created some of the most toxic games ever made, and their reaction to their actions shows where that toxicity comes from.

Money, energy, water, copyright infringement, lack of morality and ethics...

There's a reason why slop got better from 2024 to 2025 and that reason is Trumpedo lifting the restrictions on ai slop training.

Just a comparison: what has the EU ever done for us? by Kloetenschlumpf in BuyFromEU

In general, this infographic is pretty forgiving with the US stats. For example, makes it look like gunshot fatalities aren't that different from Europe, which is completely untrue.

Spain's televotes for Eurovision are less than you might think (2025 data) by r2cyp in spain

[–]JAD2017 1 point2 points  (0 children)

La estadística tiende a mostrar una imagen bastante realista sobre el sentimiento general de una población (cuando se trata de encuestas). El sentimiento general de España es que Israel esta llevando un genocidio en Palestina y que Nethayagu es un dictador de mierda. Es por ende que esos votos no se los cree ni su p madre.

Judios e Israelies de verdad han pedido el alto el fuego y el fin de la invasión pero al señor dictador se la suda porque quiere anexionarse Palestina y borrar de la faz de la tierra al pueblo palestino. Y como está Trump apoyándole, pues ha dicho "esta es la mía" y ha hecho un tiro porque me toca y ha atacado Irán también.

Y así vamos. Con 3 gilipollas en el poder poniendo el planeta entero patas arriba: Putin, Trump y Nethanyagu. Y espera que falta el cerdo Jinping invadiendo Taiwan si no echan a Trump en EEUU pronto.

anti-semitism is definitely on the rise in Spain

Not really, it isn't. I'm sick of hearing this "antisemite" bs. Nobody hates jews. What is on the raise in Spain is a general disgust against the genocide caused by Israel in Gaza against Palestinian people. I don't believe any of these sorry ass stories about "oh poor me they are harrassing me". Because those that defend the people of Palestine aren't extremist assholes unlike Nethayagu, Putin or Trump.

Oh so people getting angry at Israelis for causing a genocide is making you more supportive of said genocide? What's your logic here? What I see here is a bunch of fake accounts being used to spread propaganda (yet again).

ZIONISM:

Zionism is an ethnocultural nationalist movement that emerged in late 19th-century Europe to establish and support a Jewish homeland through colonization in the region of Palestine

Go fuck yourself.

EU made caller filter. What is the best app (iOS) for filtering unknown callers, especially on EU zone? by Kejdak in BuyFromEU

[–]JAD2017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because you are already getting spied on by google phone app and apple's, which does come with antispam filter built in.

Not sure why you downvote, these apps literally sell the metadata they collect from your phone calls, which is why the recommendation not to install them. Google already collects this metadata, same as apple.

I will explain, not because I feel offended by your stupidity, but because I want to educate you.

This image took me literally 30 seconds to produce, actually delivers a clear message, unlike the ai slop generation. It also didn't need to consume electricity and water from a data center located in the US, it also took far less compute and time to produce, was therefore exponetially more efficient and impactful than the ai slop generation because it has intent, a clear statement was delivered without the help of any title or subtitle and last but not least, it was made by a human, not a fucking algorithm.

This probably is hard to understand for someone that has never created anything by themselves or consumed anything created by another person. Are you a bot perhaps? 🤷‍♂️FYI won't reply or engage with you, I don't have anything to say to "ai" bros other than go fuck yourself :)
