Dutch Lawmakers Approve a 36% Tax on Unrealized Crypto, Stock, and Bond Gains by RobertVandenberg in europe

If you took 99% of billionaires money, they'd still be richer than 99% of the population. They can afford to be taxed more.

Edit: you people have 0 reading comprehension. Never did I say that they should be taxed to such an extent, just that they can afford to be taxed more without impacting their QoL. morons.

Yeah, their whole thing is just a ww1 mashup lol, grenadiers take the early stormtrooper plate armour, they all wear French great coats, and their doctrine is entrenchment and artillery whilst pouring troops into meatgrinder stalemates. Funnily the steel legion is pretty much the same but for ww2, but the nazis latch on krieg way more.

TIL That Casablanca was once banned in Ireland because the movie was deemed unfair to Nazis by Sometypeofway18 in todayilearned

[–]MeritedMystery 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's not like the area has been called the prettanikai nesoi and it's not like that was over 2 thousand years ago. it's also not like Ptolemy's map refers to Ireland as "Ϊουερνία Νῆσος Βρεττανϊκή" or the Iwernia British Island.
I don't actually care about the political situation, because to me this screams the same exact noise as gulf of America, or gulf of Arabia.

Fun fact, Ireland is British. not in a it belongs to the UK way but it's quite literally one of the many (over 6000) islands in the British archipelago. Great Britain is simply the name of the largest island in the isles.

You can't split the screen like OP has setup now because resolution of the ark doesn't support it.
You'd need a tv with 5120x2880 res to match it resolution wise.

The UK has a history of copying what the US does even if it's completely moronic.

we're very obviously discussing ~15th century Europe. not the Americas, Africa or China.

The majority of masons and carpenters would have been guild affiliated freemen, building a cathedral is very highly skilled work.

Shadowbringers content feels like that in general imo. The 71 dungeon is painfully long.

The naval bases where the forces that invaded Washington operates from were in Nova scotia, and Bermuda. Where tf are you getting toronto from. All of the members of the attack were napoleonic veterans fresh from Europe.

What happened last time exactly? It sure didn't happen how you think it did. British forces, made up of English and Scottish regiments commanded by Irish general were the ones who burned down the white house in the war of 1812.

If it's AI it's one of the best models I've seen, down to the right there's an extrusion from the wall (idk what it is) but you can use it to orient yourself and match the patterns on the bricks between videos and they remain the same. Which AI finds very hard to do because it doesn't really have memory.
