At the current rate?!?..

Maybe 3 months at best

Id much prefer this the other way round

So the right is against it: good

The banks are against it: probably still good

It might stifle innovation: okay… where has that been up until now?

The ECB has already made concessions to appease banks, the digital euro will have a 0% intrest rate for example so banks should still be more appealing to store money in… Not that i’ve seen an intrest rate at a bank above 2% since 2008, but hey… Room to innovate…

Germany doesnt like the idea of potential snooping… So i guess they trust big american corporations more than an institution they have an actual say over?

I dont see a real downside to trying it, other than upseting american companies and special interest groups, and i’d much prefer this to some crypto bullshit

Yeah pretty much, i mean you cant just assume because someone is a developer that they have a brain but this sums up my relationship with all the sales people ive met in my career

Me: Hey i need information about your product

Sales: Hey id love to swing by and show you our product line. How many can we put you foen for? Can we schedule a call?

Me: finds a different vendor

Oh… I kinda hope so… I just ordered a steam deck yesterday.

I meant to check this specifically before i ordered and i completely forgot

Wow that certainly was a… 20 seconds of gameplay

Aparrently its only available for German citizens, or maybe EU citizens depending on the region… So not helpful for me

Wow… Imagine a German Chancellor complaining about buraucracy in the EU…

That reminds me i need to make an appointment to go into to an office to file paperwork to change my address instead of just updating it online like a normal fucking country…

I have this problem every day. Clear your cache, close your browser, and then reopen to outlook and that works for me most of the time.

Destroy them by selling them to a country not run by a demented moron?

Or just tell him you did and just dont

I’m not falling for that one again!

Is that a megaman stuffy?

Theres a lot of bots that grab stuff from reddit, and just link the reddit post.

This then requires one to login to reddit, which if i wanted to look at stuff there… I would just go there.

So it would be nice if they just posted the content directly, or even not at all.

What is brown and sticky?

I would ask what problem you are trying to solve.

It doesnt sound like youre in a long term relationship as you dont mention a partner, and i figure that youre straight or leaning that way as this wouldnt be an issue otherwise.

So likely you will be meeting women, and having sex, in which case you should be using protection anyways.

A woopsie baby certainly wouldnt be fun, but as long as you’re in the developed parts of the world (not including most of the US) there are other means of birth control (his and hers) that still leaves you the option without making a permanent decision right now.

Im also hoping that the surgery is free or covered by something otherwise it might end up being a very pointless expense.

Im 33, i never even thought about kids at 22. I dont have any and im pretty meh on it but id never have made a decision like that when i was your age. Things change.

Hope this helps.

Not in that image 😅

Thats not really a question i, or anyone, can answer on behalf of the english speaking world.

Its pretty common to refer to countries in organizations as “member states”. From the UN, to the CIS, to the African Union and EU, UNESCO, NATO, etc.

Wkipedia

State is defined as both:

A: A politically organized body of people usually occupying a definite territory especially one that is sovereign. (A country)

B: One of the constituent units of a nation having a federal government.

Many countries are made up of states because those states used to be independent states (countries) with the United States being the most obvious example. But this does not mean the other definition does not hold.

Your english seems okay
