I obviously don't know you or your friend. As a neurodivergent cis man, amd part of the LGBTQ+ Community, I had a fair share of very awkward interactions. In many cases, people comming out / transitioning die not change my behavior around or with them, or made me ask those kind of questions. But sometimes, I really get confused. Ĺ
And ai asked the question "should I be worried we may hook up and loose our friendship". I asked it because it happened to me with someone. We hooked up, we broke up, and lost all.
I would ask him about this question, why he thinks it is a question worth asking.
Ich halte die Argumentation für schwierig. Wer ein Auto benötigt achtet extrem auf die Reichweite. Natürlich sind die Akkus größer, und damit dad Fahrzeug schwerer. Einem Anreiz würde ein Effizienz Label glaube ich nicht schaffen.
Ich fahre aktuell einen i5. 2.2 Tonnen, 87kwh Akku. Verbrauch knapp unter 20kw/100km in Sommer. Etwas mehr im Winter.
Für Größe und Gewicht gut aber auch nur möglich wegen den Motoren die verbaut sind.
Meine Frau fährt einen Cubra Born. Kleineres Auto und wesentlich leichter. Verbrauch aber der selbe.
Effizienz ist teuer bei diesem Fahrzeugen. Menschen kaufen nach Geldbeutel, nicht nach Effizienz.
I am talking about the global phenomenon. Something like rox news does not exist here in Germany for example.
We always had right wing propaganda. But now we have social media too. And that produced a confirmation cycle. The propaganda channels spew lies, people spread does lies on social media, and the media cam say "look, there, normal people on X say the same thing, it must be true".
It offers a platform for unproven claims, and especially the short content formats are an issue:
You can not cover important topics fairly in those formats. Only populism can profit from it. And the far right does this.
We reached a point where people don't believe the published agendas of candidates and parties anymore. They only trust what the hear and see on social media.
Of course there are other factors, but this is an important one.
If the scale would not be consistent, the results is actual worse. The whole political spectrum is moving towards the right. Traditional left wing parties here in Germany doing right wing stuff is getting normal.
And I don't see any left party in the U.K. or U.S. parliaments.
While the soup attack caused damage in the historic frame if the picture, this protest did not cause any permanent damage. From the choice of glue to the choice of spraypaint, everything was well thought out. So no, I don't think this is proof that the Soutwark conviction is totally unreasonable
I am with you regarding the big ones. But what about smaller media outlets and journalists to try to make a living on their own ? We need them. More then the big ones. Then the solution is to just ignore all the big ones and read the smaller ones. With ads or paying for it.
We didn't care. We were the hosting provider nor the news outlets. But we had close contact to our customers. And a lot of the smaller customers had a hard time to even survive. The primary source of income was print until paywals came around. Some customers never had print and had to close down with the surge of ad blockers
That is true and false. Adblock plus takes money for the acceptable afs program, yes. But there are clear guidelines about the ads. Containing criteria for privacy, size in relation to content and more.
I work in IT for 20 years now. Half this time my salary was paid for by ads:
My company hosted big german news outlets. All money they made online was from ads.
More adblockers meant less income so their required more ads just to come out without losing money.
ABP tried to break this cycle.
Now we are having paywals, and paywal breakers. And at this point this is outright stealing.
If adblockers would allow ads that adhere to the acceptable ads criteria, the world would be a better place. Less paywals, less ads and maybe some companies would pay their employees a little bit more.
You have to unlock the box with the company charging card. And all charging costs are paid by the employer. So only the company car is allowed. The whole behavior of the payment partner is just bullshit at this point.
