up to 60 km/h, only on Autobahn

Huh, how does that go together? Aren’t you supposed to go at least 80 or something on an autobahn?

It does not give context. They were deported by Belgium.

Is any of that relevant or the family’s fault?

Which is at least less than all the other big platforms are taking.

Or maybe the original post was simply muted for a different reason.

I thought China denied that there are any Chinese “police” stations in Europe?

They deny all sorts of things:

“They only “earn” that monopoly because ostensibly they have been authorized democratically by the people.”

Well, that might be the social framework fir a democracy. But we are talking about Hungary here.

You hinged your entire position on theirs.

I did what? That was my first post in this entire thread.

Yes, the idiotic fallacy of giving greater weight to the opinion of an authority at the subject being discussed. It is no match to the logical chad move of giving weight to the opinion of a random internet commentator who claims something is nonsense without giving any reason or explanation why.

The law does make sense, if you put it into practice. In practice the dry weight amounts will probably just be checked on the street. Checking your home will require a warrant which isn’t easy to come by, so they’re not gonna bother about cases where it might be three or four plants or this or that many grams.

Well, who’s gonna pay for your medical care when you inevitably develop drug problems/health issues. So in a socialized healthcare system, you are harming others with it.

(And not offering treatment or making the patient pay for it which they often won’t be able to, would be very inhumane imo)

I don’t know if reader mode is available on the android in-app browser as I don’t use android

It is.

Personally, I would suggest antiX Linux. It is well known that the antiX name is supposed to stand for “anti politiX”

There’s also been huge waves of spam account attacks on Mastodon recently.

Indigenous groups have always fairly reliably voted KMT. The DPP tends to have much more progressive policies and portray themselves as more concerned about the indigenous struggle. But the KMT being the direct successor of the authoritarian government that ruled Taiwan for decades tends to have much deeper local structures and have thus been present in indigenous territories much more/for much longer.

(Also portraying the parties as Chinese or Taiwanese nationalists probably is a bit strong, as they’ve both moved towards more moderate, pro-status quo positions, although from different ends of the spectrum)

Nobody is surprised. The FDP knows exactly what they’re doing, which is make as much politics blatantly in favour of their donors as long as they’re in power. They don’t care about what that does to the general populace or even how they’re perceived for it. One or two elections later everyone will have basically forgotten about it again anyway and the whole shtick repeats.

“Weather chaos” is one hell of a euphemism.

Not inherently. But since both Mastodon and Bluesky use some sort of public protocol, it is possible that people will develop some bridging software that allows both protocols to talk to each other. I think some people are already trying to build something like that, but I have no idea how well it will work/what the trade-offs will be. Maybe not every feature can be easily translated between the protocols.

But they’re (allegedly soon) federated and say they want to give control of the protocol over to an independent standards body. So like, half of the stuff you’re saying might not even really apply here.

I’m curious what lesson learned from twitter easily also applies to bluesky, as that’s genuinely not very clear to me.
