I think you’re right on your first sentence. Second one is entirely superfluous; and doesn’t have substance in support for the question.

“Has” is a bit strong at the start of the war (2014). The revolution of dignity built actual sovereignty by slowly ousting the puppeteers. At the start of the major conflict (2022), the Ukrainian identity was only a fraction of how strong it is now.

In the end, there is perhaps some conspirational truth to what he said. Heavy hints that Russia invaded exactly after Maidan (2014), “separatists super unhappy with less ties with Russia and revolted too”, in the same week, is the weakest shit I have ever seen. Happy for 25 years, suddenly revolted. And Russia brought a whole occupational army to help the poor peacefully seceding citizens. Doesnt take a genius to see it’s just an already planned out show of force, “You don’t suckle on great big Russia’s teet, so we can slowly eat you? Then I will take your lands”

Essentially, cancelling public holidays will in short term add some slave labourto the company, which in turn maybe add more profits, more b2b economical activity, and if France has any decent corporate tax and not too many loopholes, some money will go into budget to be allocated to usual overspending that got you into this place, and none to repay debts.

Tldr: you’re being screwed over, go protest, or ask for raises when this actually occurs.

Essentially, it’s “proof by existential intimidation” :D

I am confused. Is he LLM? Is you LLM? Is everybody just a braindead human zombie that can be approximated by LLM?? Is internet dead even in Lemmy?

It’s a tabloid-quality “study”, but if you shuck away all the words she uses, and look at the numbers which are more easily attributed to actual gold-digging

There are five million members on SeekingArrangement. Overall, the site has 3.8 million Sugar Babies, and 12% are male: 460,000. Moreover, this is an 84% jump in male Sugar Baby membership from the start of 2014.

Kind of 10 vs 1

Millennial men are also more likely to want to have a prenuptial agreement than males of other generations (32% vs. 25% of Gen X males and 17% of Boomer males) perhaps because they are more likely to be viewing marriage as a financial/contractual arrangement as much as a romantic partnership.

And this is just pure farce. Prenuptial agreements are for protecting from gold-diggers and taking the money away from having to do anything with the marriage. i.e. The opposite. Focusing on romance (if it exists).

To clarify, everybody knows marriage is a financial arrangement. You would have to be an intense fool to ignore that. Whether you do something to protect yourself against unbalanced finances is just a question of your perception of society.

You could probably say I am picking out pieces. And I am. But if you just look at the numbers and ignore the farce of the author, I think you can make more truthful conclusions. (The whole piece reads to me like purposeful twisted propaganda, starting from the title. Or, well, just tabloid-quality journalism)

Idk man, I think you neither looked at the statistics, nor lived that long on this world. While true, it is extreme to only have one side of the coin, the other side is just not as likely by statistics…

In the end… it’s a game? I mean, I guess I grew up to live with rifles and walk with a switchblade while going to the store. And expect all women to be scantily clad mages walking with staves and high heels.

I generally think all politicians should be forced to retire from political work by at most 60yo.

It’s even less of a thing. Things like AWS have datacenters in Europe, where most of Europe-side of traffic is hosted. Even if Trump made executive decisions to stop any internets companies doing business in Europe, it would have ZERO impact on the subsidy. Any cloud issues would really only impact “vertical scaling cloud-native” bullshit software, there are plenty and most reasonable companies are based on more sane (and less expensive) hosting solutions, which are in-house European.

Takes a massive fool to think European companies are basing their data in US continent, where the ping would be >150ms, and speeds would be far slower and less manageable.

At some point, with a quarter hundred downvotes and many negative replies, the person you should first inspect is not the other, but self.

Is that percentage 100%? Because any desire to take land without any respect for the ones living there for thousands of years has a certain… Lebensraum ambience attached to it

Hey, don’t put any random rich-ish person from Europe into the same US billionaire basket

Maybe worth looking not at the absolute number, but the relative Israeli population vs perpetrated war crimes

How else will the Republicans push more subliminal messaging to the uneducated, overhears snippets of a title, masses?

They had the right to defend themselves into another sovereign territory? After allowing (while knowing) an attack by a terrorist group to happen on their soil without any proper response? And of course our 21st century mind is too short sighted for the bigger picture of why the terrorist guerilla group even exists??

Just stop this mental gymnastics. We spent some time now learning history, what leaders should have already known. There is nothing forgivable in this war. It’s just a continuation and finalization of their lebensraum plan from the 40s, full on genocidal Columbian colonialism perpetrated by Zionists.

Imperialism never had genocide as a main part of the process…

What? What will be driving this unaffordability? Companies being unable to lie?

Is that not what we want? For € to go into actual features, held up by publicly and verbosely declared information about a product???

What?

Decentralization literally fights power centralization. There is no inherent position of power.

Anonymization has no talking point in the discussion of virtual internet power points. Only makes people more true to who they are.

It’s some kind of intense mental gymnastics to think the Trump administration has a thought process behind their policies…

It’s not really any different than usual dust, other than it is even more likely to scratch your phone (oh no!). The surprising thing is the bullshit price number, I’m sure it’s some brain-dead economist looking at the point-price for diamond and with great effort making a single multiplication.

Edit: The study does note industrial diamond manufacturing, but doesn’t go into detail on why it’s so expensive for diamond powder, other than saying “it would require much more industrial diamond than is currently produced”… Which is just… Empty? Considering industry would change to account for such a drastic rise in demand.
