Doubtful, honestly, though from what you described with Berlin, this feels like more of a problem of Berlin being a very transient city. A lot of people never fully settling there,…

What do you mean with „Germans“? In my friends group, in my son‘s football club, in school, most kids have a so called migration background, but the parents are mostly second gener…

That's a very Berlin-centric observation. Berlin is special; it's hard to extrapolate to the rest of the country.

Well, the No vote triggered some adjustments, so this is indeed relatively democratic. What would be the alternative?

Which is when we'd enter economic warfare between the EU and US, something which no one wants to experience. If that were realistically threatened, and we've seen motions in that d…

It's obviously a loosing battle. You're thinking of elaborate attackers, I'm thinking of your common policeman or scammer. Not great security, but might be able to solve the easyne…

Really good points, thank you for pointing this out. What I'm mostly thinking of is the usage in e.g., social media. There will be efforts to do what you suggest, but for your typi…

Why police (and media) cameras aren‘t forced to use camera hardware signing, aka content credentials, is beyond me.

What's your suggested alternative? Would you say that American democracy is broken or democracy in general?

Worked there ten years ago. Good company, well run, privately owned, employees getting a share of the success. Jack Little has steered that ship well.

I think the seawater bit is really relevant here. Only understood the importance of this when I saw the seawater part.

"Immersed". The channel tunnel was bored below the sea floor.

Why is the Content Credentials Standard [1] not more supported? It's basically hardware-signing of images, which would make it fairly straightforward to identify AI-generated conte…

Don‘t take it personally, you might be right in your extreme position, but this feels like a horrible take on what it means to be human.

Multipolar doesn't mean replacement of hegemon. It's also two different things, you might be right that China, Russia or the EU would be worse as a hegemon, but that doesn't imply …

Do you really think the American empire is never to be challenged? Everything and everyone goes down after a while. Whether it‘s now is unclear, though the active resentment agains…

Interestingly, China is succeeding because it isolated itself partially from US big tech. That enabled them to build their domestic companies. If you give free reign to US companie…

Trump is all that‘s needed for that. The Greenland saga alone was sufficient. And then he attacked Iran.

Are you implying that this is Germany getting ready to invade Poland?

It was already a thing back when I was doing compulsory service (end of the nineties), but no one cared and no one was ever asked for it.

Sorry, irrelevant to what you‘re saying, but Germany has 85 mio inhabitants. You might mistake it for Poland.

There's a fairly non-invasive way to do age verification: ID cards that connect to a smartphone app that only provide a boolean age verification to the requesting service. Requesti…

The commission is checked by the parliament is checked by the council is checked by the commission. Most other national organizations only have one check - Germany, for example, on…

So in summary: because the law was avoided today, the EU needs to be abolished? Weird take. You can see it the other way around, without the EU, Denmark and others would have alrea…
