Well back in 2016, when I was working for a European car manufacturer, all the data of cars in China went straight to a mirror server of the government. For all other countries the data was stored at the company servers.

Back then Chinese EV vehicles were no thing, so not sure how they handle it now.

But as you said, you can safely assume all the data goes to someone. Depends if they have something like GDPR in place or not, they can see most of your data and connect it to he user account.

Totally agree with you.

Well maybe no chancellor accused people of being lazy and not working enough, being ill on purpose. Instead of taxing the wealthiest and include the civil servants in his cost-cutting measures, he just targets the poorest of the country.

So yeah I really don’t get it why he gets so much hate.

I am still have not given hope, that one day Germany will just threaten the US to close Ramstein or actually will do it. If the troll in the white house keeps threatening us.

Good! If they complain must mean wie doing it right.

Couldn’t say it better. It is nowadays used to shut down other opinions, as no one wants to be named an Antisemit.

I would just add some jews, as I am pretty sure a lot of Jews and people in Israel have a complete different view than their current government.

Would you say the same, when we have far right governments across Europe.

While I totally agree with your points made. I think you can’t blame all Americans for it. Not everyone voted for him and the ones who did, were fooled.

It is kind of hard to get rid of Trump with all the power and oligarch’s he has in his circle. Will be interesting what happens in the elections in November, hopefully a big defeat for the orange.

Yeah 100% agree with you.

Unfortunately it is always the issue with greed and maximise the profits.

But that’s why I don’t really believe in the usefulness of Nuclear as a energy source. The idea behind it is brilliant, but the way we use it is not. I am no expert in this field, just my personal opinion.

Might be, but I personally don’t feel comfortable it being stored. What if it leaks. Not my problem, as I will be dead by then, but still we will leave it for future generations.

I have seen the chaos building the Hinkley reactor and the costs, so my personal opinion there are cheaper ways of producing energy.

Well but what to do with the waste?

I think in general it is a good source for energy, but unless we find a solution other than storing it somewhere in the earth, we should not use it.

My girlfriends family is from Iran, they hate the regime there. But surely they are not celebrating. They are scared not hearing from their families since days, who still are in Iran.

Just remember this war is not about regime change. Maybe have a look at Venezuela how that worked out…

This action clearly violates again international law, and because they claim Iran was 5 minutes away from having a nuclear bomb. Since they so successful destroyed everything in their last raid.

Don’t cry if China attacks Taiwan and claims Taiwan was just 21min away from nuclear bomb…

Best comment.

I am very thankful to Microsoft, without them I wouldn’t have made the switch to Linux.

I really loving it. So much better, faster and powerful + no Spying.

Says the guy whose job consists oft touring Bavaria opening nearly each beer festival, no matter how small, and otherwise making TikToks, what he eats all day long.

And his Party is basically trying to lobby to lower the inheritance tax in Bavaria.

We get a higher unemployment rate and people loosing their jobs, it doesn’t help anything if you work more and no one wants to buy your machines, cars and so on…

This cartoon sums it up the best for me, what they are trying.

Thanks for sharing, really insightful.

In my personal opinion after being also responsible in AI for our company, I do not see how it will be profitable for them.

For example Microsoft Copilot license, costs 30$/month, but a lot of things I can do with it a free Chatbot can do too.

It definitely has it strengths and use cases and I am sure it will not go away. But it is not the way the market it as a full AI, it just generates answers with the highest probability. I cannot see it developing from there to the real AI.

I think this year will be really interesting to watch all the AI companies, especially Oracle as they have to refinance a lot. If one falls it will send them into to a spiral, the big companies will be fine, but I am sure they will cut their funding of OpenAI.

But who knows could be the other way around and OpenAI finds anything new to make them more profitable.

I guess he just wants to give bis buddies a new chance to buy the dip, same as he did last time with the tariffs. When he boasted about how much they made in one day.

Only thing he does is to manipulate the market.

Perfect is the enemy of the good.

Just see it as a first step. Signal is still better than WhatsApp being owned by Meta. If we get more people of WhatsApp, in the future there might be more European alternatives.

There are no big European alternatives the majority of people are willing to switch.

I got rid of WhatsApp last year myself and could only convince 8 people to use Signal. I tried Threema and Matrix, but most normal people are not willing to do this and don’t care they give up their data and so on…
