  • Russia invaded Chechnya and committed an atrocious genocide in 1999-2000, invaded Georgia in 2008, then invaded Crimea 2014, then the Donbass in 2015. The full scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022 is not the start of history. Russia has plenty to things to hold them accountable of, even more if you go back into the cold war era and after world war 2. Not to mention their daily attacks on civilians in Ukraine.

    China is currently illegally occupying Tibet since 1951 and it is daily committing crimes against humanity on the Muslim minority Uyghur in the Xinjiang. They have illegally claimed ownership of the South China sea (simply a formal name and does not mean it belongs to them) and are daily harassing and ramming fishing boats from other nations who have legal rights to fish there, a blatant breach against international laws.

    These two nations break against international laws every single day. They are just like the USA. The difference is that USA pretends to be a law abiding democracy, while China and Russia doesn't. They are both unapologetic dictatorships with nothing but malice and ill intent for everyone but themselves.

  • Roses are red and violets are blue, You have been misled, for that isn't true

  • Hehe this is the same "negotiation tactic" Trump uses. Sorry to bring politics in here.

  • I get what you are saying, but how many country names start with I and has a Q in the name? I might be wrong I think it is only Iraq?

  • I don't understand, I just see a bunch of red lines. Where is the white?

  • Yep I am sure he will fund someone on onlyfans to fill the gap.

  • Yes.

  • I'd use my knowledge of history, politics, psychology and science to become an influential advisor to powerful lords and help them conquer the world in exchange for living in luxury.

  • Well that too. Like a country fighting for its survival and sovereignty would just give up because Trump said they should... They fought with nobody helping them in the beginning and they will keep fighting until there is no one left to fight. American help and intelligence is helpful but not decisive in whether they keep fighting. I just wish Trump would spend at least 5 minutes listening to an expert on the issue, is that too much to ask?

  • So they are probably mostly people who hate immigrant/colored people and want to be able to do so professionally?

  • Exactly, when people and organizations are selling their American stocks and companies and customers around the world stop buying American, there is less need for dollars. When the demand decreases, the price decrease.

  • Who are these ICE agents anyway? Asking as a foreigner. Do they have the same authority as police? Are they police? If you refuse or stop them is that obstruction of justice/resisting?

  • God the Trump admin is such a hot HOT mess... What did they expect? That Russia would just cave? They are so terrifyingly stupid, it genuinely makes me worried and we are only three months into his term...

  • It is not trivial, the existence of you job makes that self-evident. If it was trivial companies wouldn't need a DPO, would they? I would love to see you walk up to your employer and tell them that your job is trivial and anyone can do it...

    You might not see this yourself, but the fact that even a small company needs a DPO in order to interpret data protection regulation IS the problem! But I am sure you are not complaining... It needs to be simplified so a small company can be GDPR compliant without requiring a DPO.

    This problem is recognized in the report from the EU commission linked in the article, which is why they are acting.

    The fact that small startups cannot even take off because they cannot afford to hiring the bureaucrats required to interpret and be compliant with regulation is a massive problem and one of the reasons Europe's economy is stagnating. It is not about exploiting personal data, it is about the cost of bureaucracy killing European startups in their infancy.

  • They intend to simplify compliance, not axe the law. And this is needed if Europe wants to make itself independent of USA and China on the tech front.

    You who are against this, have you ever had to deal with GDPR? It is a nightmare and I am certain American big tech is secretly celebrating it, because it kills any European startup alternatives, because they cannot afford to employ enough people to be compliant with the law and if they try to do it with existing personnel they don't have enough time left over to actually run their business.

    If you have ever complained that there aren't enough European alternatives, GDPR and other legislation is the reason why. USA shoots itself in the foot with tariffs and we Europeans shoot ourselves in the foot with regulations. I am just really glad the EU commission has realized this and are fixing it.

  • I don't really understand much about this, but it sounds very exciting! I would love for Europe to start making a lot more advanced high performance chips. I know there are a few foundries, but they seem low key and only making basic chips. Not that I know much about chip designs and manufacturing...

  • Where did you get these numbers? I cannot find any sources to support them. Active personnel of mentioned countries is half to 2/3 of mentioned numbers. And this tells us nothing about these countries ability to produce new personnel.

    Also, that's all on paper. When UK and France discuss a 'coalition of the willing' to act as peace keepers in Ukraine they are able to scrape together no more than a few tens of thousands, even though it is believed that 100-200K is required to be a deterring force.

    We are talking about a force of several hundreds of thousands to be trained, armed and moved to a front to fight within a few months or at least within a year, in addition to already existing forces, a large part of which are unavailable to train new recruits because they are deployed.
