I would agree and I guess German tv is more affordable than Hollywood, so I shouldn’t be surprised but I still am a little bit. Or curious at least.

As product placement?

We also have Dr Foots in the Netherlands, which is more like Dr Pepper / Cherry Coke than regular Cola but it’s good and made here (by the company behind Bavaria and loads of other beers. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Swinkels). Lot of their money is earned by producing for supermarkets, so all those unbranded cheap versions are also not American. 🇳🇱 🇪🇺

Hope they use some serious chemicals cause I once made stamps with potato and I swear there was more ink inside then on the outside of the patato. Would like to see those decorated potatoes once they start growing roots.

In an unprecedented move, the Japan Fair Trade Commission on Tuesday issued a cease-and-desist order against Google for violating the country’s anti-monopoly law by forcing manufacturers to preinstall the company’s apps on their Android smartphones.

This is the first time that Japan has issued such an order against any of the major U.S. technology companies referred to collectively as GAFAM — Google, Apple, Facebook, Amazon and Microsoft.

That sure is some evil business tactic

Imagine companies explicitly mentioning the year it was fda approved and people talking about it like they do about a vintage

President Donald Trump’s administration told allies it couldn’t sign the statement denouncing the attack as it is “working to preserve the space to negotiate peace,” according to people familiar with diplomatic correspondence, as meetings continue between the White House and the Kremlin.

Better not upset Putin 😂😂

It’s like every morning they browse through the menu of smart things to do without realising they have sorted the whole thing the wrong way around.

Didn’t he say something along the lines of ‘if you vote for me you don’t have to vote ever again’?

Friday, as in last week in 2025?? I had to check the source since I couldn’t believe there are still court cases being held over 23 years after 9/11.

The case has been wending towards a resolution since the May 2012 arraignment of a single, fundamental issue: whether the government would be able to introduce “clean” or admissible statements by defendants at a death penalty trial following their years of isolation and abuse.

This man has been 10 years in custody already and still is not convicted? Aside from what he has or hasn’t done that must truly suck. Or would it help you keep hope? I don’t know but I am very surprised by this to be honest.

Just any old psychological warfare firm lol

Heating and cooling buildings both cost immense amounts of energy, but in places where spaces are heated the global rise in temperature generally means less energy is needed for heating because it is less cold. I don’t have the experience that discussions about this favour the ones living in colder climates over the ones living in warmer climates, but if you feel this is personal let me say that you shouldn’t sit in scorching heat just because the world fucked up and shouldn’t feel bad about using an airconditioning. Spending a long time in high temperatures actually kills people. I was not in any way saying the people who right now don’t have airconditioning should not get one, just that it is better for the global temperature a lot of people don’t have one.

Cool stuff, I’ll bookmark this for when I win the lottery.

Thanks for replying, might not suggest it next time. Seems buy-european.net is much better maintained anyway.

I think in a direct sense you are right, but they will also have to spin the economic consequences and they might be able to spin the story but they don’t get to choose about everything. He might only be able to solve this by starting another war somewhere else, which they could also spin to be believable but they can’t decide wether they will win that war either. Also I think the reasons the war was started are very different to why they are continued.

I feel the EU starting to be seen as the (new) leader of the free world. Or at least increasingly so by wealthy western countries like Japan, South-Korea, Australia and New Zealand.

No offense, but I think Moscow Times has better access to secret (true) data, the fact that the published result is not trustworthy doesn’t mean russia doesn’t have a real number. They (the russians I mean) are known for having obsessive amounts of information about all kinds of things.

I just checked and on my end it labels Firefox as being from Canada, so don’t know what’s going on there. Suggested changes through the feedback form, so hopefully the people behind this will change it soon.
