@MagellanQuest And let's just not mention what happens if you have a family and need to go even just from Madrid to Paris. A luxury car becomes cheaper than a short EU train if you go ONCE PER MONTH.

If this is integration, just stop.

Don't bother.

The trains will be empty.

[Bram Vercammen @B74429Br]

@MagellanQuest "Integration" in the EU mostly means that already expensive railway companies charge extra for every train.

A train ride from Italy to Norway is not just more expensive than a car, it's more expensive THAN A PRIVATE PLANE FLIGHT. You know, the ones Greta Thunberg keeps making.

@MagellanQuest This has only ever cost jobs ... migrated to lower cost destinations.

Real tragedy is that people cannot migrate easily in the EU (doing that still requires work visas "for tax reasons"). Only companies can. People can't escape poverty, companies can only create it.

@AlphaDogJDK @Osint613 Extremely busy with important regulations:

The European Commission is expected to announce plans in September to ban children from using social media across the EU.

According to Euractiv, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is expected to reveal the proposal on September 16. Final details have not been confirmed yet, so it is unclear what the minimum age will be or how the ban would work.

Several EU countries are already working on their own social media bans for children, and the European Commission wants to introduce a shared approach across the European Union.

@Letsgeauxtrave1 @IsraelArmyX That's not allowed by US rules of engagement. "The west" doesn't do that.

And yes, VERY occasionally, it becomes "tries not to do that".

[Bram Vercammen @B74429Br]

@Themis_is_Here @IsraelArmyX This is close to rule number 1 in western warfare (well, US rules of engagement). Never fire a weapon if you don't know exactly what it'll hit

NEVER. If you do, 20 years later they'll STILL punish you for that

The west literally refuses to sabotage power plants for this reason

[Bram Vercammen @B74429Br]

@OblivMC @mzjacobson This will be useful for small sports planes, somewhat bigger drones (though energy goes up with the square of the weight for drones, so not much bigger).

But planes? Not even close.

[Bram Vercammen @B74429Br]

@OblivMC @mzjacobson Oh, sorry, we're discussing theoretical ("nonexistent") maximums?

Hydrogen itself (fuel = compressed hydrogen) has an energy density of 120 MJ/kg (~40000 Wh/kg). This is the value that you can approach with chemical fuels. Still over 3x better than this battery chemistry.

[Bram Vercammen @B74429Br]

@Electroversenet Yes, it is. Greenland is the first victim of gulfstream shutdown, which will eventually encompass most of Europe.

This is exactly what the models predict btw. Why are you using it to disprove them?

[Bram Vercammen @B74429Br]

@reieurope Why not call it "Synergy"? That's after all what management of companies call this.

Oh right it would make it clear to 90% of the people you critically depend on that "deeper integration" really means firing them.

Have you people ever thought of providing opportunities instead?

[Bram Vercammen @B74429Br]

@3thwh4le @FORTRESSMAXXING @Haqiqatjou Iran WAS ahead of the GCC countries in 1979. No need to imagine.

Thank the leftist revolution that brought the mullahs to power. Thank the EU, and especially France.

[Bram Vercammen @B74429Br]

@NXT4EU Where do you get the idea that a country that has to spend every extra cent they get on debt repayment will use the income to pay for roads?

This is just about more tax income, nothing more.

[Bram Vercammen @B74429Br]

@DrSimEvans Because it would force green parties to actually discuss a solution? Because limiting CO2 output ISN'T a solution, while increasing energy production, is?

Have you noticed? As soon as action is needed, as opposed to blaming, suddenly leftists and greens are nowhere to be found.

[Bram Vercammen @B74429Br]

@sagewilyam @B7frankH Most Americans know about "Dunkirk". Guess where that is?

[Bram Vercammen @B74429Br]

@Jaap65652885622 @marcosagusstinn When was the last time Europe invested in research? WW2

nuclear power -> WW2

(controlled) rockets -> WW2

antibiotics -> (kind of) WW2

radar -> WW2

microwave -> WW2

computer programming -> WW2

encryption -> WW2

If we'd had WW3 we'd have self-flying cars by now!

@antos_petr @KingONumbers @statisticmania Oh, it's connected in that obviously the problem with hate is islam, not Africa.

[Bram Vercammen @B74429Br]

@antos_petr @KingONumbers @statisticmania We all know WHY Turkey and Egypt hate LGBTQ people ... and it doesn't apply to Nigeria in the same way.

Turkey and Egypt are majority muslim, and ruled by muslims. So they use political power and police violence to essentially hunt gays.

[Bram Vercammen @B74429Br]

@antos_petr @KingONumbers @statisticmania Nigeria has a big Christian population.

You want me to say it? islam is the problem here.

[Bram Vercammen @B74429Br]

Where do you get this stupid idea that leftists are different from you? They imagine this is money that is coming to them, that's all.

And a tiny portion of it is, so it's not entirely untrue.
