So they're still following the steps in Creating a Fascist Regime for Dummies, how surprising.

Breaking news: Trump's brain is as dysfunctional as always.

Even better would be if a CEO can only earn more than their lowest payed workers if everyone they employ earns at least a livable wage.

Especially not the rare ones

I think the better educated/skilled someone is the more the free market will benefit the employee, because if someone is easily replaceable the focus is more on how cheap someone can do something rather than how good someone can do it. Companies are under pressure to deliver their service/product for a low price, wages are a big part of their operation cost .

I have no idea how birds see the world but laserwindmills sure sound cool, you could make something like that spraying dark spots in the sky like an octopus squirting ink. I mean if we can come up with these ideas then surely they can come up something that is less costly than turning them off all the time. Maybe just hire a bunch of artists and not only engineers, but I don't know to be honest, maybe they've been trying really hard to figure something out all this time already.

There might be places where it worked, but the fact there is a difference between 'normal' and 'tipped' minimum wage in the US says a lot about the powers working against the individual. I heard the minimum hasn't changed in decades in the US and the tipped minimum wage is about $2.50 or something. But to be honest I don't expect someone that says "... just don't be illegal or find another job in your home country" to know what it's like to struggle making end meet and then have these powers working against you.

I know how that feels, but don't worry about it. Once you know you know, and when you don't there is probably someone who doesn't mind to tell you

i believe they want the front end experience to be as much like what we have now, but the inner workings are very different and lower cost is not the goal.

Also the digital euro isn't supposed to take the place of the 'regular' euro at once, so banks will still want to have other technologies after the digital euro is introduced.

Unfortunately if you want to minimize the amount of money leaving your country you have to pay in cash because the technology behind all other ways of paying are largely supplied by us banks (for now)

Can Canada create a food labeling system similar to this?

It's confusing trying to buy Canadian with all the variations of made in, assembled in, grown in, packaged in, etc. Can we copy the Australian food labeling system, perhaps replacing the kangeroo with a maple leaf? I find this much clearer.

President Volodymyr Zelensky announced on Tuesday the capture of two Chinese nationals reportedly fighting for the Russian Armed Forces in the first update of its kind.

Zelensky, in a Telegram update that includes the interrogation of one of the Chinese men captured, said the two soldiers were captured in Ukraine’s Donetsk region with their personal documents, including bank cards.

Zelensky said Kyiv is aware of more Chinese nationals fighting for Moscow, adding that Ukrainian authorities are working to establish the situation.

“We have information that there are significantly more Chinese citizens in the occupier’s units than two. We are currently clarifying all the facts. Intelligence, the [Security Service of Ukraine] SBU, and the relevant units of the Armed Forces are working,” Zelensky said, adding that the two men are under the SBU’s custody

 
 

OTTAWA – With the stock market plunged into chaos by U.S. President Donald Trump’s sweeping tariffs, Canadians have decided to simply wait out America’s forthcoming economic collapse and then buy the nation on the cheap.

The Europol-supported operation led to 79 arrests and 1.400 identifications

Kidflix, one of the largest paedophile platforms in the world, has been shut down in an international operation against child sexual exploitation. The investigation was supported by Europol and led by the State Criminal Police of Bavaria (Bayerisches Landeskriminalamt) and the Bavarian Central Office for the Prosecution of Cybercrime (ZCB). Over 35 countries worldwide participated in the operation.

A total of 1.8 million users worldwide logged on to the platform between April 2022 and March 2025. On 11 March 2025, the server, which contained around 72 000 videos at the time, was seized by German and Dutch authorities.

The investigation resulted in the identification of almost 1 400 suspects worldwide. So far, 79 of these individuals have been arrested for sharing and distributing child sexual abuse material (CSAM). Some of those arrested not only uploaded and watched videos but also abused children. The investigation is ongoing.
