Looking forward to seeing EU alternatives for Starlink

The irony:

The new mobile interface is lit 🔥. Finally usable

This is the most terrible trade “deal” I’ve ever seen signed.

What US gets:

• keeps 15% duties on EU exports with a guarantee that EU won’t retaliate
• EU buys absurd amount of energy from the US
• EU promises big investments in the US
• EU buys even more military equipment from the US

What EU gets:

• nothing

I doubt that’s the real reason behind opening this route. Russia has been sending North Korean troops to fight in Ukraine for them, and Moscow is a good transportation hub for this kind of operations

Most people in France, Germany, Italy and Spain would support UK rejoining EU, poll finds

Sure, but as an equal member, without special treatment, which won't please current UK.

Asked whether Britain should be allowed back in on the same conditions it enjoyed when it left, including not having to adopt the euro currency and remaining outside the Schengen passport-free zone, the numbers changed significantly.

Only one-fifth of respondents across the four biggest EU members, from 19% in Italy and France to 21% in Spain and 22% in Germany, felt the UK should be allowed return as if it had never left, with 58-62% saying it must be part of all main EU policy areas.

In the UK, while 54% of Britons supported rejoining the EU when asked the question in isolation, the figure fell to just 36% if rejoining meant giving up previous opt-outs. On those terms, 45% of Britons opposed renewed membership.

You need to be rich enough to qualify for the tax cuts I guess

I would rather see trains getting cheaper than planes getting more expensive though

The headline is misleading.

1. It's a refundable deposit
2. It's not for all travelers but only for those on non-immigrant visas. Most notably, does not apply for ESTA travelers

Yes, that’s enough to survive in India, except for the biggest cities

And this is how tariffs should work - not targeting the whole countries randomly but protecting the local industries and jobs instead against unfair competition. Good job Canada!

Trump posted on Truth Social, "As per letters sent to various countries yesterday, in addition to letters that will be sent today, tomorrow, and for the next short period of time, TARIFFS WILL START BEING PAID ON AUGUST 1, 2025. There has been no change to this date, and there will be no change. In other words, all money will be due and payable starting AUGUST 1, 2025 - No extensions will be granted. Thank you for your attention to this matter!"

He became a pope only last month

Sometimes he’s mentioned in the daily conversations once he says something controversial or big. But the real base of supporters is in the churches; they do repeat what he said once a month or so and pray together for it to turn into reality

Just a friendly reminder that 1/3 of Americans don’t believe that to cause price spikes

Not just China

Don’t worry, now teens have TikTok which they can source their information from, so we should be safe

What you expect from a guy who bankrupted four casinos?

We should have done the same thing a long time ago, actually

Yeah. Sad that it doesn’t work the same way for the India’s ruling party (BJP) members though
