Also, I’m unable to vote on comments in my inbox directly. Only after opening a comment by tapping on it, can I vote on it. Tapping any of the vote buttons while seeing the post in my inbox has no effect. Is this normal?
It’s too easy to blame Brussels/the EU. Many national governments back these chat control proposals or have done so in the past. They’re just using the EU as a scapegoat to hide their own intentions.
I’d guess they use this method rather than something else like poisoning whenever they want to make very apparent what happened, as a warning
The cheapest kind of pride, on the other hand, is national pride. For it reveals in those who have it the lack of individual qualities of which they could be proud, for otherwise they would not have recourse to what they share with so many millions. On the contrary, he who possesses significant personal merits will recognize most clearly the faults of his own nation, since he has them constantly before his eyes. But every miserable wretch, who has nothing in the world to be proud of, resorts to the last resort of being proud of the nation to which he happens to belong. He rests on this and is now gratefully prepared to defend with tooth and nail all the faults and follies peculiar to it.
Arthur Schopenhauer, 1851

Ozone protects us from UV radiation
As far as I understand, this specific plan comes from the Belgian government. Von der Leyen’s Commission though seems to have similar goals.
They can’t get kicked out but their voting rights in the councils could be suspended. That would require unanimous approval by all other member states.
In the past, Hungary under Orbán and Poland under Morawiecki had some kind of pact to protect each other from such a suspension. With Tusk now the Polish prime minister, that’s no longer the case, but there’s some fear that Slovakia’s Fico could shield Orbán instead.
I don’t understand these comics. Are they pro religion? Are they anti-religious satire?
The first comic seems to both warn against satan and attack religion. It might be talking about all religions but the right one.
The second comic is even more confusing. First it seems to associate education and the theory of evolution in particular with satan. But then it seems to associate rejection of education with punks who aren’t necessarily known for their religiosity.
The third comic, finally, is pretty clear, painting wealth and entertainment (sports) as detractions from religion. This could technically still be satire though.
Why should you be allowed to advertise the price without the tax. Companies should already knock the applicable tax rate when they write these ads and could easily advertise “$x.99, $y.99 with tax”.
Nein, das Jodsalz mit Fluorid.
We’ve got both iodine and fluoride in our salt in Germany.
Here in Germany, drinking water isn’t fluoridated but fluoridated salt is sold at every grocery store. I assume that fluoridated salt isn’t as easily available to those in the US who could now end up without fluoridated water, is it?
Non-experts far in the future might consider us today naive for considering lightsabers future technology.
Some people feel judged for eating meat if they learn that you’re a vegetarian or vegan. As veganism appears more extreme, it causes a stronger reaction.
These people don’t like being judged, so they seek to judge you instead. If they can judge you for not eating meat, you can’t judge them for eating it, or so they feel.
Some vegans being quite obnoxious in their attempts to convert others, doesn’t improve things. Rather, it helps those who dislike vegans to reaffirm their beliefs that all vegans are silently judging them all the time.
All of this is just my theory.

Sorry for making such a niche reference. I was joking about a specific tweet by a specific German politician. This was only meant for any German reading the comments.
Maybe the drug control agency should clarify that marijuana shouldn’t be consumed at beer festivals, to protect the children.
Britain’s Boeing?
I’m experiencing the stuttering with full-sized images disabled and enabled. By the way, is there a setting to change the height of images if full-size is disabled?
