The only aspect which should be taken into consideration is noise ordinance laws, honestly. If the venue exceeds them, they’re clearly at fault.

Germany implemented this law in a way which allows stores to post the recommended retail price instead.

It’s a fucking shitshow, the RRP is always set way too high and there are “30% sales” all the time now.

smh, you didn’t even use lowerCamelCase

Hm, maybe you happen to be shortsighted. Don’t worry, Markdown can help with that:

WAS LEND LEASE IMMORAL BECAUSE IT WAS AID AND ANY AID “PROLONGED” WW2?

I recommend glasses though

Sure, it would’ve just killed a few more million soldiers and civilians at minimum, who cares about lives anyways.

Nobody needs

over 400,000 jeeps and trucks; 12,000 armored vehicles (including 7,000 tanks, about 1,386[56] of which were M3 Lees and 4,102 M4 Shermans);[57] 11,400 aircraft (of which 4,719 were Bell P-39 Airacobras, 3,414 were Douglas A-20 Havocs and 2,397 were Bell P-63 Kingcobras)[58] and 1.75 million tons of food.[59]

in a war.

Also you failed to address the point: Was lend lease immoral because it “prolonged” the war?

In WW2 the US shouldn’t have sent any aid to the Soviets because this just lengthened the war, they should’ve pushed both sides towards a peace treaty

But why, I don’t think any artist has ever thought:

“Creating elevator music is so fulfilling! I would never take a different job and express myself in unique and creative ways, bland repeating background noise music is my passion!”

I’ll give you that, racism against brown muslims was the reason they were elected.

But this is not the first time a party was elected because of racism.

No one is winning elections campaigning on kicking out Slavs. But parties have been compaigning against them. Take a look at how media was representing “Russian-Germans” in the early 90’s. Spoiler: just the usual. “They’re stealing social securities from families, getting everything handed to them…”.

Or how populist media has portrayed Greeks after the financial crisis:

Sell your islands, bankrupt Greeks!

This is how Greeks are wasting [our] beautiful euros

You won’t get anything from us!

Not a single drop of racism to be seen in here, nope.

Don’t get me wrong, anti-Muslim and anti-brown racism is rampant in Europe.

But that’s only a subset of European racism, racist Europeans despise any and all refugees, regardless of skin color because they despise amy culture different from their own. Perhaps for the first two months of the Russian war of aggression they pretended otherwise. Afterwards however, the same. Identical. Populist. Talking points. Were used as in 2015.

even at the expanse of local population

I suggest not parroting far right propaganda, thank you very much.

Also, perhaps don’t apply fascist Poland, Hungary or Italy’s behavior on the entire EU, there are many millions of Syrian, Iraqi and Afghani refugees in the EU.

Also, European racism is far more complex than white = good, brown = bad, like in the US.
Nazis wanted to eradicate “white” Jews, “white” Romani and “white” Slavic people because of their ““race””. Do you seriously believe current day Nazis love the idea of Ukrainian immigrants? Have you actually seen how racist Germans treat Eastern European immigrant workers from Poland or Romania?

Honestly? As terrible as it sounds, it can be almost arbitrarily high if you look at the Geneva convention.

For example, a hospital can be targeted after nothing more than a warning if the hospital isn’t used for humanitarian purposes only. There is no minimum duration specified between the warning and the attack.

Not that the Geneva conventions are a guide for morality. They solely limit the maximum of cruelty during war.

A party tolerating Nazis in their ranks is not worth differentiating from a party made entirely out of Nazis.

Ya know, if politicians have Himmler’s instruction to produce more “aryan” babies hanging in their bedroom as a poster, it is safe to say it’s a Nazi party.

That makes much more sense, my first intuition was passing people on the sidewalk which… doesn’t seem like a red flag.

What do you mean with

walking around other earthlings on footpaths etc instead of through

Is an earthling a human, an animal, a plant or subsets of those three? And what is walking through an earthling?

I’m geniuenly curious, I have no idea what you mean.

Because this will get .001% more total data considering the low number of GrapheneOS users. Besides, this is highly illegal and would result in significant public outcry and legal consequences far greater in cost than any potential benefits.

And if you cannot trust Google with their processors, you cannot trust any other company either.

I don’t see how AI will potentially shatter society. You can’t prevent AI models from being misused any more than you can prevent the internet from being misused.

The biggest danger of AI is the capability of spreading orchestrated misinformation. Since this is mostly done by state actors nothing can be done against it. I’m not opposed to AI regulation, it’s just that generating images or text is not what’s worrying about AI.

potentially society-shattering fuckery

Clearly cameras, screens and the internet shouldn’t have been invented. After all - they facilitate the creation and spread of CSAM!

Minister Faeser also makes it clear: “Racism, anti-Semitism or any other form of misanthropy stand in the way of naturalization - there is zero tolerance.” A clear commitment to the values of a free society should therefore be a prerequisite for naturalization. Anyone who does not share values such as the dignity and equality of all people and the equal rights of men and women, or who even acts against them, may not become a German.

Meh, it’s probably phones with very loose power buttons who are the culprit. I don’t think my current phone has gotten its power button accidentally pressed even once and I keep it in my pocket pretty much 16/7 [not while sleeping tho].
