The German car companies are very afraid of Chinese retaliatory tariffs on luxury cars.
Both. There is a study by Armin Falk and Nora Szech (2013) that experimentally shows that markets can erode moral behavior, as participants were more likely to not save a mouse's life for money in market settings. This generally extends to the erosion of morality for monetary gain in market systems. Additionally, psychological research indicates that wealthy, successful individuals often score higher on traits associated with the "dark triad" of personality, i.e. narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy, which supports the idea that selection plays a role as well.
Howdy y'all bros. My name is Todd Bonzalez and I am from one of the great American places foreigners know from your TV shows.
4chan at least had a consistent brand of being the anti-social network and being full of Nazis, weirdos, pedophiles and people who are just anti-social for the lulz. You couldn't ruin 4chan.
Twitter's image was being the "internet town-square for serious thinkers" with politicians, scientists, journalists and a small but good measure of standard shitposters. Loosing that brand diminishes it's value massively. Unfortunately neither Bluesky nor Mastodon was able to catch that clientele yet.
It's been a long road getting from there to here.
I hate their current abhorrent nationalism and imperialism, but their anthem is kinda great.
It's the famous "As long as your not Google, Amazon or Apple" licence.
The key story for Christians is that a man was unjustly executed by religious authorities and the state even though he was without sin. This unjust sacrifice atones for all of humanities sin. So kinda hard to justify execution from a Christian perspective if you actually believe that stuff.
Plot twist: OPs father actually works at the United States Mint (but in an office job)
Worked shortly as a bike delivery guy for a small independent German bookstore. They did deliveries in the small town and you could order books by phone or email. The atmosphere in the shop was chill. The owner was an old really well-read hippie, who was really friendly.The pay was rather shit but I'd say it was overall a good job.
Under the GDPR, employers in the EU can only monitor employees' work emails if it is necessary, proportionate, and serves a legitimate purpose, such as ensuring compliance or security. Employees must be informed about the monitoring in advance, and clear policies should be in place to respect transparency and consent requirements. Any monitoring must also balance the employer's business interests with the employees' right to privacy, ensuring minimal intrusion. Some countries like Germany have really strict interpretations of how to apply the GDPR here.
35-year old Heidegger slid into the DMs of 18-year old Ahrendt as her professor. This was way before you were cancelled for 'sleeping with students' or for 'being a fascist' was a thing.
I usually eat a simple Porridge, but if I want to make something fancy on a weekend I make pancakes for my family.
Yeah but people are highly aware of it and there is even a disclaimer in Email Signatures that everything is tracked. If you are dealing with government ministries in European countries some of the (unofficial) information exchange is done without written record, either at in-person conferences or even through non-work phones.
Highly illegal in the EU. Also highly stupid everywhere else. The big question is "How secure is your user espionage system and can an outsider get acces?". The data from something like this is a social engineering goldmine.
IBM built the punch card machines that were used to organise the Holocaust and they were a good American company.
Examples: Itchy & Scratchy from The Simpsons, The Scary Door from Futurama, or The Grand Inquisitor from Dostoevsky.
