One of the few countries that never have been colonized by the West.

Last point made me smile. Good one

Oh this sounds familiar for a German in Ruhr area. This area is strongly undermined by coal mines. Imagine LA with many levels of cellars under it. Down to even 1000mtrs.

Ruhr area sunk down year on year for around 100 years now. Many buildings would get drowned by natural ground water if there wouldn’t be pumps. These pumps are supposed to run forever. It’s financed by a fund of the coal mines and called “Eternal fund” Last coal mine closed 2018.

This study must be Italian peer reviewed. Emphasis on view.

Indeed. Now, publically available for every governmental police. Not the US only. Even Iranian or Saudi police. Hey wait, don’t they punish family members of political enemies?

Seriously, once there were police men at my door asking for a DNA test by free will. There was a rape in my county and they asked every male. I wondered who‘s going to be that stupid and handing over police your DNA. Once its stored in a database…

Captain Obvious was hiding for a while. Now, he runs with your most personal data. Even your kids will thank you in coming years for whatever behavior, diseases, IQ or political preferences will be found to be rooted in genomic data. The world will know theirs.

Edit: Oh, and you‘ll help your family members to be jailed, if somehow involved in criminal acts.

Indeed. Some European SUV‘s are called as such for marking purposes only

Too many. In Europa it’s the same. Around 30% of new cars are SUV‘s. And it’s not the people, it’s the corporations that drive this trend. They earn more on this huge cars. (And silently killed all small cheap cars. Only China is building small cheap cars) And guess what the industry whisperers say, what the solution to this is?

Buy even more SUV‘s. That is the solution!!! Ahem, of course they’re electric. But keep buying big costly cars!

Just watched on tv a documentary about strikes a hundred years ago in the US. Facing the Rockefellers, Carnegies and alike. Police was shooting them down. That’s the US. Railroaders are on strike just today in Germany.

Sentences have both meanings and sound, yours have sound

Interesting that she comes out of that system that she criticizes. That will be a tough fight for the school companies. I hope she has so much integrity as it seems.

Luckily, Germany didn’t put it eggs into the iPad school basket. Observing my kids learning with it by Gamification Learn Apps, it has this bad taste of game addiction not learning.

Okay understood. You might have read that I excluded those with an agenda.

I guess it doesn’t fit in a yes/no thinking if there‘s a third option.

People need to point on who’s good and who’s the bad, don’t they? Makes life easier.

There‘s nothing more annoying than a group of „individuals“ on a night tour. Each move, either in this or that club, to the right or to the left, stay or lesve this place, as to be discussed in deep detail and from every micro perspective. Until a shared view emerges.

It’s simply a better way to be a group of people to have a leader who hs a say. Good leaders care about the group members and might even have more experience than the groups individuals. I‘m quite happy to have a guide in a museum who can tell stories about the images. I‘m happy to have a leader to follow in the mountains. And I‘m happy to have someone leading a group through new fields of anything, so I learn from an experienced and might do my own steps in this s field alone.

True. Accounting is the best friend of digitization.

However, it’s not always bad to look what makes sense or drive profit and what not. It’s rather a matter of how religious one is about it.

Take the second wave of computerism for example. What we call Digitalization. This is mainly driven by opportunities and chances of new business not so much about squeezing out the last percent of profit. This all is accounted as well, but management doesn’t care.

Yes and No. It’s a stupid privatization they did.

They privatized the railroad, but never sold some stocks. Now, it’s a private company owned by the state and subsidized by tax payers.
