  • As long as the coalition represents the majority, I don't see why the largest party needs to be part of the government. The largest party doesn't represent the will of the people by itself, otherwise they would have a majority.

  • but they are making lists. turnabout is fair play.

    Who exactly is they? You sure everyone in that list has a list in return? Or are you just throwing them all together because you're incapable of seeing shades of grey?

    no merit in my value system

    Yeah, because your value system aligns more with MAGAts than with us

  • I didn't ask a question, so there's that. Just a suggestion: maybe you should ask yourself how you will make sure that your map is not used for mob violence and how you can make sure that unvetted and outdated information doesn't hurt innocent people. Shitty ideas don't get better by good intentions.

  • They are all enabling drug cartels, so no, none of them are good. We can't go around and say companies if not by law are at least morally responsible for child labour and forced labour camps in their supply chain and at the same time ignore that every fucking dealer gets their shit from sources that do the very same thing. There might be exceptions for some drugs, I'm not that deep into it, but in general there is no moral way to sell illegal drugs.

  • And this criticism of 'the greens only show up every 4 years' is in bad faith.

    No, it's really not. The Mayor of Galesburg, IL, a town of 30.000 is the highest office any green politician holds in the US. This is fucking ridiculous.

    By their own admission, only 130 Greens are currently in office in highly influential positions such as Zoning Board of Appeals Alternate or Cemetery Trust Fund Committee. This party is a fucking joke. And that's the party whose presidential candidate accepts an invitation from Putin.

  • I've tried it, it's completely overhyped. It's definitely smoother and less bitter than normal coffee but not worth the higher price and given that it's impossible to guarantee that you get it ethically sourced, I would recommend against it.

  • There are definitely use cases for battery-electric trains:

    • We have these in Germany usually in areas with low traffic. E.g. if a train line is only serviced a couple of times a day, it's more cost-effective to carry the batteries with you than to electrify the line.
    • Another use case are train ferries. They are the reason why Germany also had Diesel-powered high-speed trains for a while.
    • Another challenge in Europe is the lack of harmonization of power supplies of train lines between countries. In cross-border traffic, trains have to be adapted to work with different energy supplies. Battery-electric trains can add flexibility for these scenarios. E.g. Germany uses AC 15 kV 16.7Hz, the Netherlands DC 1.5 kV on low-speed and AC 25 kV 50Hz on high-speed lines. When a train goes from the Netherlands to Germany, it disconnects from the Dutch system and reconnects to the German system on the fly. For a moment in between, the train loses power. If the train lacks momentum or has to stop unexpectedly, the train is stranded and has to be pushed over the border by another train that is independent of the power supply.
  • Yeah, interesting that the supposedly left-leaning Stein sits next to an openly right-wing nationalist conspiracy nutjob whose last book title was:

    Der Putsch des Establishments gegen Donald Trump
