<<EU to slap 25pc tariffs on US imports but exempts bourbon after industry pushback>>

They must have gotten the memo that I'd go ballistic if they touched Jack! 🤣

i now advise everyone in germany to add as many solar panels as possible for a "small" installation.

those small systems usually lack the possibility to be shut down on overfrequency.

which means wind turbines have to be shut off, generating a financial loss :blobcat_sip:

:noyoumu:

these laptop bags are really nice to organize all kinds of small stuff, even at home.

i don't endorse fraud, the "pictures are worthless as proof" timeline is great though :popcornparrot:

maybe it's finally time for real trust stemming from actual relations between people again? not trust due to pictures of state issued IDs and token systems?

CLEARLY I'M MISTAKEN!

guess the beatings will have to continue for a while.

Erich Mühsam Stiftung, Undead Chemnitz und das selbstbestimmte Leben

youtube.com/watch?v=e7GTYHSdyb

Die Zeiten sind wild. Wie viele wissen, steht, unser Haus und unsere Art zu leben unter Angriff. Wir machen uns, wie ihr euch vorstellen könnt, viele Gedanken, wie wir das erhalten und weiterentwickeln können. Momentan machen wir destruktive Sachen und schreiben von einem Anwalt zum Nächsten. Das kostet Kraft und ist eigentlich sinnlos.

Wir sind sehr stolz auf das, was wir gemacht haben, zusammen mit euch. Wir hatten 1000 Gäste aus der ganzen Welt. Es ist ein echtes Zentrum für Musik und Kunst und die letzten Jahre auch für digitale Selbstbestimmung. Da das so wie es jetzt ist, nicht geht, müssen wir neue Wege finden.

Wir haben ein schönes Haus direkt nebenan, die Reinecker Villa. Mit Bühne und Ausstellungsräumen und Wohnraum. Die wird seit 20 Jahren nicht benutzt und uns würde es retten.

Deswegen habe ich mir überlegt, das in einen offizielleren Rahmen zu bringen und eine Stiftung zu gründen. Um vielleicht mit einem etwas offizielleren Status neue Möglichkeiten zu haben. Angeblich ist unsere Stadt gerade Kulturhauptstadt. Man hätte gedacht, das würde Leuten wie uns etwas unter die Arme greifen. Mal etwas Respekt zollen für das, was wir und ihr seit so vielen Jahren für die Stadt und die Kultur im Allgemeinen tun. Gegenwärtig scheint es eher so zu sein, dass wir stören und irgendwie wegsollen. Ohne uns!!

Deswegen will ich die „Erich Mühsam Stiftung“ gründen. Leider habe ich keine Ahnung wie das genau geht. Aber so geht es immer los. Und vielleicht könnt ihr uns helfen.

Made some OC after spamming 30 calls in a row to Canada Revenue Agency just to get in the maximum 1hr long hold queue to get my account unlocked only to find out my credentials have been revoked and I'll have to make a new one anyway

I got some Gros Michel bananas! Here is my review.

GROS MICHEL BANANA REVIEW:

Gros Michel was the worldwide banana strain until a blight wiped out commercial viability, leading in about the 1950s to a switch to a different banana for worldwide consumption (the "cavendish). Therefore, Gros Michel have become rare. They still exist cultivated in small quantities by heritage farms.

taste: tastes like a regular cavendish banana, albeit a good one. I did NOT detect that it reminded me of "banana candy flavor".

texture: denser, compacts more gooey in the mouth while chewing, which is pleasant on the tongue.

appearance: smaller but otherwise similar to cavendish, skin interior has more texture. It did not seem "slipperier" than a cavendish banana, contrary to claims. I will try making my dad slip on one later to see for sure.

RATING: 4/5 slightly superior banana, but just seems like a particularly good cavendish banana, so delightful but not worth the 17 dollars a banana I paid for the privilege of trying this rare heritage breed.

what are these so-called values?

i read: everyone who didn't want these injections could be safely disregarded.

at the 38c3 they even had a talk with "covidiots" in the title:

> It started innocently enough: COVID-19 deniers, huddling in their own echo chambers, almost nostalgically stuck in the past.

step 2: ridicule those kicked out for their "echo chambers"

https://gript.ie/new-report-shows-massive-eu-funding-for-trans-ngos/

A new report has revealed that over €220 million in EU funds have been used to advance “a radical gender identity agenda” over the last decade, including support in the EU for adopting a strategy calling for gender self-ID for children.

The investigation by MCC Brussels, a Hungarian backed think tank, says that research funding is being ‘weaponised’, and that EU-funded research “is being used as an advocacy tool to justify policy changes rather than for neutral academic inquiry” – pointing to €2.4 million in funding for research “Challenging the gender binary”, and a €3 million “MEN4DEM” study which critics say “treats traditional masculinity as a threat to democracy”.

The report, “Mission Creeps: How EU Funding and Activist NGOs Captured the Gender Agenda,” was authored by sociologist Ashley Frawley, and MCC Brussels say it is the first comprehensive investigation into how a small but powerful network of NGOs has shaped EU gender policy under the radar of public scrutiny – and that the funding has been used to promote “controversial policies” that “undermine women’s rights, child safeguarding, and national sovereignty – all without meaningful democratic debate”.
