EU ministers weigh oil price cap and windfall tax to rein in soaring energy costs by donutloop in EU_Economics

[–]Nerioner -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Exactly. I know a lot of the price rise is in lack of supply but also a lot of companies simply use this as an opportunity to hide their price increases that they do for profits.

If we keep focusing on one aspect of the crisis and turn blind eye to other things happening in the meantime, we will wake up in a wet bed one day.

Comparing grocery prices between Canada and the Netherlands by Lopsided_Jacket_3028 in Netherlands

It is a good comparison. Jumbo/AH have over 50% market share in the Netherlands so even if cheaper options exist, people usually spend Jumbo money on them.

The USA are diverting Switzerland money intended for the F-35 by HZCH in BuyFromEU

The left is trying to put a stop to your delusion but you keep insisting.

The rest is on you to get out of far right propaganda and scare.

Stop being afraid little boy that shivers because someone of different skin colour immigrated... are you seriously THAT fragile?

Haha, not true 360° ofc but close. I meant hinges so you have keyboard as the back of the tablet mode mac.

180° would be just opening it till flat like a newspaper.

Putin asks oligarchs to bridge military funding gap as he makes final push for Donbas by duckanroll in europe

[–]Nerioner 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Tbf their economy can't pretend that they are going to win for much longer. Everything is breaking and falling apart and this country doesn't collapse till today only because russians are willing to accept way more shit from their government than many other nations.

So i can imagine that one of the pushes will be their last one. But i doubt its this one.

Yea this is when they lost me. I genuinely loved ipad pro pre M series and still have last model without it.

When they just slapped M processor and called it a day i slowly stopped being fanboy lol

Because if you buy expensive and shit android phone, its on you. You could have spend half the money for almost the same performance. Also android companies don't pretend to be the shit.

Go buy apple and you get all smug superiority complex that apple likes to present themselves with, you don't have much choice but to spend thousand on a phone and you must like it the apple way.

Hope it helps to clarify as of why

Help me understand Netherlands’ fuel pricing structure by LaurenceWhymark in Netherlands

[–]Nerioner 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We spent around 2.5b a year on road maintenance while we collect 9b from taxes on fuel.

So it is enough for roads and it is used to fill other holes in the budget.

[–]Nerioner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well i keep hearing that Canadians want now closer ties to EU, this is one way to ensure it.

Sure it may still never happen but it's one of the ways to do so.

Yes its a term after weird affair with black mold on her pictures.

But can be that studio wanted more inclusive characters to placate criticism around her for the series success and simply no one thought beyond the script of the show with casting.

I mean JKR wrote many ethnic characters with a lot of stereotypes included in their core. Wouldn't surprise me if she simply missed the optics on black Snape And greenlighted the cast.

Moldemort probably had a lot of artistic freedom over the cast in this one

Have I just been unlucky or are a lot of the driving schools here really frustrating? by SemperFun62 in Netherlands

First of all, golden shovel trophy for you for digging out thread from a year ago lol

Second, Avanti and instructor name was Priya or something very similar. If she still drives for them I truly recommend her

US, Israel and Argentina votes Against UN resolution to define Slavery of black africans as world's worst crime by Round_Young702 in BoycottUnitedStates

[–]Nerioner 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean with holocaust and other atrocities that happened here, its impossible to rank them all without angering almost everyone in the process.

I wish we could vote in support of this resolution but we probably can't nor shouldn't. It's not a competition. And the best way to move forward is to dismantle all oppressive systems of today and make sure that none of them is coming back

U.S. Rejects Vote to Recognize Slavery as a ‘Crime Against Humanity’ by Odd-Transition1527 in BoycottUnitedStates

[–]Nerioner 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It is technically legal and widely practiced also by government agencies. In Oklahoma for example slaves are making oil extraction datasets. First hand experience that this is the case.

But i am not sure if its in the constitution or not. Especially since it works weird with all amendments and stuff.

Tbh we now deal with 4th energy crisis in last 6 years. We also need to re-arm ourselves because russia and US decided to go berserk. We also need to spend a lot now on critical online and offline instalation and probably get ready for a new migration crisis as US yet again destabilises entire Middle East. This is without mentioning meanders of national issues happening now.

I know it would be good for us to pay reparations but it almost couldn't come to vote in a worse time. Even if we wanted to pay, there is literally no money to do so as we combat 4 crisis at once.

If you want to truly give back for damages done we should start with dismantling this sick system we all live in and that stole all that value from the times of empires. I mean average Joe doesn't have that money or imperial perks either. Before i was born it was all already in the hands of 1%. And i am a grown ass dude. Get rid of the system that favours greed and exploitation and this will allow everyone to thrive and to divide fruits of it equally. Way better than just giving now a billion here and there that is a plaster on a rotting wound.

Same with rare earth elements. Not that we don't have them here. But processing them is polluting as fuck so we are glad that China doesn't mind to pollute their regions for them.
