A bit weird imo. Why US gas and Greece? Are their harbours even Greek still, thought they sold (most of) them to China?

Most liquid gas storages, converters etc are in the North. It’s a shorter trip and the infrastructure is there already. Also with Artic routes opening up and Canada preparing to ship gas, the Northern harbours will only grow.

Ah I see the article doesn’t present a correct context, its all part of the Chinese Belt & Road iniative for Southern-Europe.

Yaa true, I was quite surprised about this fear" fact-check" when I found out. Also, in general it’s also true on a more global scale.

Fear is a strong emotion and public fear will aways somewhat influence individuals. Imo, if you are aware enough, you might deflect most of that fear. It’s the animalistic part inside you that migh be affected because of the (evolutionary group) instict.

Added: Just realised I forgot to mention a huge caveat: Safety is a feeling which was compared to crime data. But maybe the fear people feel isn’t about crime data, but a reaction to ( geopolitical) changing times.

If so, it would be interesting to see an investigation trying to find out what and where this fear comes from, when it’s clear that it’s not crime. I do think media is partly to blame and hypothise this to be an important factor. But maybe some other unexpected reasons might become clear ( I’ll do a bit of search myself).

Update; the whole fear, media influence, immigration propaganda etc is quite complex . Basically the fear people have depends on economic status; so fear of this month’s rent or fear of the end of the world. Basically inflation, economy and jobloss.

Another take I found, is based on the assumption that European culture is depressing perse, and prefers tragedy over comedy. Europeans see many things " lacking" and wrong in this world.

Yes ,X links and stuff won’t always work as you want to. Always good to check it after posting it.

I get something abursting AI bubble.

Edit: I see you answered @ “no stupid questions”. A bit elaborate this way…

So, the requirements probably didn’t account for this remote controlled thing.

Probably, something like this. But if there was a procurement interview with a Q&A it should’ve been discussed, imo. I wonder if the tech people got a say.

I am positively surprised that there is a plan at all; and that subsequently, some countries have forwarded a pollution reduction plan. Though it’s clear that some countries are producing and polluting more than others, either by GDP and or per capita, it’s also true that some very poor countries ( ex. Bangladesh, Sahel region, Iran) are suffering way more than others.

Even though climate change is undeniable, some factors like responsible land, forest, water, agricultural use ( resources), but also building quality, can contribute to or alleviate disasters.

It is a complex and codependent world we humans have created, within an apperantly more and more fragile ecosystem. Who will pay, whom will receive, and how much, should be based on some clear measurable variables, but mostly it will probably all depend on political will and moral responsibility.

about the polish case.

“Digging into the code revealed a software trap that would disable trains if they were anywhere near a repair facility that wasn’t run by the manufacturer, Newag. But Newag used a pretty inaccurate way to determine when the trains were in a rival repair shop, which led to some unexpected consequences.”

I don’t think this is what the problem with the buses are about. Ofcourse, on the fly update and remote features are probably more advanced. But if a third party (country) has 100% control, that means you don’t have any.

I wonder how this procurement was done, and who was responsible. Obviously, they never really checked the buses for security issues, or they where wrongly informed. How much will this investigation and updates cost, and would with hindsight, a different choice have been better and cheaper? If so, someone in procurement has been swayed, bought-off or was very misguided.

For context according to this link they need 39 B USD, and this “dim-sum” bond is part of the Indonesian diversification strategy.

"According to the budget plan, the Government aims to raise 642.6 trillion rupiah (39 billion USD) this year to cover the deficit. This year, Indonesia has issued many other types of foreign currency bonds such as: Dual currency bonds (USD and Euro) in January and October, raising a total of more than 3 billion USD; Islamic bonds (sukuk) in July; Japanese Yen samurai bonds in June (worth 103.2 billion Yen); Australian dollar (AUD) kangaroo bonds in August (worth 800 million AUD).,

Well according to stats femicide is on the rise globally. That’s a very worrying outlook.

I agree that when posting a YT link one can not assume " everyone knows that channel or that guy", or are like " …but trust me bro." ai suggest that when posting a video link, one should consider providing some minimum context,or when in doubt a proper alt link with similar news info.

In this case, yes, the channel owner seems quite strict in his reporting methods. He divides facts and his opinion very clearly, so it is ok. These discussion can somewhat be avoided by providing context. / Edit

I never knew any different, as many people can easily be misled or corrupted, at least that’s my life experience. So I see it as my civilian task to always remain critical. Basically " my hope" is that the trust I do and must place sometimes, there is only so much one can do, won’t be misguided.

But yes. It’s sometime hard to keep faith and hope. So far, Europe hasn’t been too bad, but I feel we are in a critical time, and can still fuck it all up. We are not in a safe place (yet)

Afaik, EP members have diplomatic immunity, unless the memberstates they represent revoke that privilege. Oftentimes EU is blamed for things memberstates don’t want to do themselves and are responsible for.

Great news, thanks! So it seems it’s seriously being addressed via your server or is this on lemmy.world Any ETA for next release? I’ll also check out the tesseract for now. Good luck on the personal matters.

Ed. just tried it out and many things like you said can be adjusted! good stuff.

Hi there, saw some good ideas coming by. Personally I like reading the news and its comments. I considered using Boost, but then I needed to accept them collect info for ads. So for now am using Connect & Jerboa. Haven’t tried Voyager lately, which also seems to tag new users, iiuc.

I also came across this pending suggestion for Lemmy on github.com, which mentions using community flairs . When implemented and used correctly by communities it might solve some issues if I understand correctly? lemmy issue1456

What do you think?

Publicity crap?

The ones I’m talking about are regular posts with news links in worldnews and in the europe community.

I really hope it’s because Europe is doing something good, and not because some other places have completely lost their way or are doing badly.

Made a Xpost to support as well about https://feddit.org/c/europepolitics

Yes, many political parties need to reinvent themselves and regain trust and democratic legitimacy with voters.

Many critique the Afd for the obvious right winged (fascist) connotations, but apart from their populist rhetoric, which is bad enough, they are traitors to Germany, Europe and democracy in general. It doesn’t compare at all.
