Same on iOS, incredibly frustrating. Have you found a solution?

Do they really think Signal will fall for it?

We should have done the same thing a long time ago, actually

I am probably missing something, but isn’t it a good sign if the wages for over 50% of the population outpace the inflation? Over 50% is not like it only benefits the richest

Starting soon folks, get ready!

An actually solid mobile client

It’s easier to run such operations against random illegal tobacco traffickers rather than FSB agents, which belong to one of the world’s best spying agencies

I doubt that’s the real reason behind opening this route. Russia has been sending North Korean troops to fight in Ukraine for them, and Moscow is a good transportation hub for this kind of operations

Not sure how you’ve replied to a deleted comment but yeah, I figured it out in the meantime, hence I deleted it. Thanks though!

Regarding the latter - Germany and France are (hopefully) not that stupid, but for instance Poland which spends the biggest share of its GDP on military, already buys foreign stuff instead of investing into domestic production, so I am afraid the rest could go with it. Many of our leaders are just plain stupid (I hope, or worse case: corrupt)

That’s literally what we did. Germany wanted to keep their car exports flowing to USA, and now we are all gonna pay the price of having to buy all the American goods

Moving away is the opposite of pledging to do massive investments in the US and getting dependent on the American military equipment and energy

This is the most terrible trade “deal” I’ve ever seen signed.

What US gets:

• keeps 15% duties on EU exports with a guarantee that EU won’t retaliate
• EU buys absurd amount of energy from the US
• EU promises big investments in the US
• EU buys even more military equipment from the US

What EU gets:

• nothing

This time EU chickened out

You need to be rich enough to qualify for the tax cuts I guess

Well if Europe doesn’t do this, US or China will regardless and they won’t care about leaving junk in the space. So it’s a matter of who will profit off that. And also, the EU is doing a lot for the environment already. Maybe it’s time for other countries like India to stop throwing trash directly into rivers now? We live on the same planet. Even if EU achieves the zero-emission state, it only accounts for 5% of the population in the world, so it won’t change that much on a global scale if other countries continue refusing to cooperate

Oh yeah, my bad. It was .ml that’s blocked. Kinda ironic given that it’s one of he most pro-CCP instances out there

The big instances are blocked (like yours, i.e. lemmy.world) while the small ones that the CCP didn’t catch up with yet (like mine) are working fine. It’s a censorship went wrong moment
