Wir haben das türkische Abo für ~8€/Monat ohne Werbung mit 4k und noch 3 weiteren "Haushaltsangehörigen". Wenn man Autos per Reimport kaufen kann und Macbooks aus den USA günstiger sind, warum dann nicht auch für Netflix? Geht mitunter auch für Spiele und andere Sachen, sollte man auf dem Schirm haben.

Bequemlichkeit ist relativ, man kann ja die Privatkopie bemühen und hat dann irgendwann auch einen ansehnlichen Katalog. Und dann ist es schon ganz bequem.

So is this the work of electronic warfare from the ukranian army or rather a russian fail due to their subpar engineering and shitty ways?

Here's the relevant quote: "[Merz] suggested giving the government in Kyiv the right to say: If the bombing of civilians does not stop within 24 hours, the range restrictions on the available weapons will be jointly lifted. If that’s not enough, the Taurus missiles will be delivered a week later. This would allow Ukraine to regain the initiative,”

For context: he's very likely to become chancellor in February.

Oder die wirksame Cum Ex Aufklärung, wie lange könnten wir damit das Asylsystem oder das Bürgergeld finanzieren?

Edit: 35 Mrd. also anderthalb Jahre die genannten Kürzungen ausgleichen. https://www.zdf.de/nachrichten/politik/deutschland/cum-ex-skandal-backgroundcheck-100.html

Mehr Geld fließt aus Europa in die USA denn andersherum.

Bist du sicher? Ich dachte Trumps Argument ist immer, dass die Handelsbilanz doch genau anders herum ist, also mehr Geld aus den USA nach Europa fließt als in die andere Richtung?

Ich bin noch viel früher abgestumpft. Wenn Bundeskanzlern Freunde wichtiger sind als das Gesetz, wenn Finanzminister sich nicht erinnern können wo das ganze Bargeld in ihrem Schreibtisch eigentlich nochmal herkommt...

Wir leben in einer Bananenrepublik und unser Staat ist ein Selbstbedienungsladen, ist seit jeher so gewesen und Besserung ist nicht in Sicht.

Russia+NKorea surely can't go longer than US and Europe, look at the numbers in economy, population etc. Even if the US pulls out, Europe on its own would have more than enough resources to outspend Putin. It's a matter of political will, that's all. If Europe would be equally commited to Ukraine then Russia wouldn't stand a chance. So whether it's a waste of money or not now is a question of whether Europe is willing to properly support Ukraine. I guess you could make the point that it's about time we finally decide this, but the means surely are there and at our disposal.

You're right. Also I can't believe we wasted the 4 years under Biden and now are again caught with our pants down.

The money stays in the US if that's what you meant?

I have one, hear me out: it looks like the current german gov will decide to give up and have early elections. Current polls suggest that Merz will become chancellor. On multiple occasions he criticized Scholz for his cautious approach and voiced his support for Taurus deliveries. Not sure if he will go through but I think he specifically mentioned Taurus so often and prominently that it won't be easy to back pedal now. So it's likely that Taurus (and with it the Kerch bridge?) is back on the menu.

(Imho he's quite a shitty politician otherwise, but maybe he can get at least this right)
