The European Union imported liquefied natural gas (LNG) from Russia worth around €4.48 billion ($5.2 billion) in the first half of 2025, up from €3.47 billion over the same period last year, according to EU statistics agency Eurostat on Monday.
That is shocking. 😠
Windows 8.1 was released in 2013, so yeah, a blast from the past!
You can move and make new friends!
Not sure what to do about the family though. 😔
I enjoy Organic Maps.
The Punic Wars were another step in the endless grinding of the Romans against every region bordering their territories. Yes both Carthage and atomen were expanding into each other’s sphere of influence, but I don’t agree that either side considered it a struggle for ultimate power.
Rome was never a democracy. Rome didn’t have a single war that made it hegemonic. Sorry this account is just fiction.
My understanding is that glass from the screen likely shattered and hit his ear?
In any case, a little better aim and we would have a better world.

Well, in principle there can be full employment that is terrible for the economy. Imagine everyone working at Walmart, but not actually earning enough to buy enough food to survive.
But in general you’re right, people not having jobs is shit.
In a society where women are often harassed, many women use bathrooms to escape men, even if just for a few moments of peace.
In the fine article people were at the home of their representative.
Across the street was the house of Rep. Carol Miller, R-W.Va. The imposing brick home was darkened, the curtains were drawn. No car was visible in the driveway. But for the assembled, it was a last ditch effort to get some kind of attention from the Congresswoman.
I don’t think this is true, although maybe in some places.
For example, the more gas a business uses in the Netherlands, the less they generally pay per unit. This is terrible for our carbon footprint, where we basically subsidize the worst emitters. 😟
I guess that a hydrogen fueled vehicle would be allowed then, which is terrible since basically all hydrogen is made from methane currently. 🙈
Banning sales of fossil fuel cars after 2035 is exactly the plan.
I think that it has basically worked?
I don’t follow mainstream news much, but Trump’s ability to suck all the air out of the room by doing crazy shit seems to have eliminated the 80% of my posts on Lemmy that were about Epstein. 🤔
Other cities are not run by the federal government, so on it would be hard to do… not that Trump cares about rules, so who knows?
That’s what I thought but there’s slightly more than that.
The writer tried to trick ChatGPT 5, saying Vermont has no R in it. ChatGPT did say “wait, it does”. But then when pushed it said, “oh right there is no R in Vermont”.
I mean… the inability to know what it knows or not is a real problem for most use cases…
It will also give Azerbaijan another route to send natural gas by pipeline to Europe via Turkiye, while bypassing Georgia, a Russian ally.
In what universe is Georgia a Russian ally?!
The entire article is bonkers, but thanks for posting it. I wouldn’t have known about the agreement otherwise.
For people saying “it’s fine”, they are probably not talking about the same thing
I assume you mean this monstrosity:

Which is indeed a crime against humanity. My parents used one and kept me from realizing that coffee is delicious until I was 18 years old or so.
The other people probably mean this simple yet effective device:

Especially the comment about 60 million Italians.
The moka pot is great and I use it to make my own latte every day.
