Do I really have to spell it out like for a five year old?

Would be good if your comments were more nuanced and a bit more respectful every now and then. Your arguments about “Politico” holds also true for many other media outlets. It’s something others have already commented on in your post and comments. You keeps pushing your own agenda in this matter.

Most people here should be adults and are capable of making their own decision in what they read.

Wirh reference to the MV Hondius cruise ship, to contract the Andes virus one needs to inhale mouse (rodent) poopdust. What have they done or where have they camped, and how come they never noticed it? This expedition afaik occurs often and the crew is almost one for each passenger. I don’t get it, this virus is quite well known in Argentinian Andes region.

So I guess a tourist did stupid tourist things probably, or a passenger got it from a local (guide) and infected the other passengers, is my guess.

They have a proper Uni course for this. I dont think we have anything close to that, in Europe? Ofc, our spies are trained as well, afaik that’s up to specialised agencies.

That’s a good thing, kinda?

“Peacefull co-existence” should be.

But how rewriting the constitution will affect their relationship remains unclear for me. Except, that maybe it’s less confrontational on paper.

It’s remarkable how the talks between north & south suddenly worsened after 2023. And, they even demolished the building were they held the peacetalks.

ps: just realised this is wrong community for this post. Though S Korea is an ally ofc

Yeah, we’ll probably need to scale up critical infrastructure ( and thus our elektro industry) and/or diversify trade, as EU has recently been trying to do.

There is still one Belgian company producing solar panels Belga Solar fyi. Germany used to be leading like 20 years ago in it’s production, maybe they have one there too?

But at this point in time we should be more focusing on electro storage, as most of Europe already has ( 99% Chinese) solar pannels. Afaik, it will take still some years to extract thre critical components ( Scandinavia), which is currently the bottleneck in the battery proces iiuc.

Ukraine and Moldova doing the good work. Nice.

Greenlanders are EU citizens though. We’ll indeed have to see if the art. 42.7 defense clause holds.

Nope, not what I meant at all.

The commenter was saying (about the OP’s report which talks about intensified Ruzzian and Chinese agression) that:

“Still blind to the nation that threatened to invade Denmark” Meaning the US threat.

I then reacted by asking why then do the european military exercise up there since Davos?

We refer to that island as Greenland, because it’s an autonomous region, and yes it’ protected by Denmark, EU & NATO.

Your metaphor is confusing because that wasn’t my main point. I was talking about Operation Artic Endurance Objective: Deterrence against a US invasion of Greenland.

Still blind to the nation that threatened to invade Denmark

Really? It was actually Greenland but ok. That must be the reason why there is a continous EU military training happening there ever since the Davos conference.

well it does seem the Euroversion will entail using it as cash anyhow - including privacy - but not sure about anonymity. They’ll keep using cash too ofc

" By complementing cash, the digital euro would make central bank money available for payments, bringing the euro into the digital age. It would support financial inclusion, protect privacy, and make payments easier and more secure for all. This is why we are preparing technically for the possibility of issuing the digital euro once the relevant legislation has been adopted."

official ECB link

move it around like cash

Hadn’t thought of that, it checks out. I had only tried to connect digital euro to the WERO roll out (#e) ( in Northern-Europe).

I hope it will be equally anonymous like cash. Is that how the Japanese version works?

small #e: spelling roll out

Im still unsure as how a. digital euro has anyhting to do with b. payment systems. c. money transfers or d. interbank account settlements.

Imo they are usually separate processes, but I guess while they are Eurofying the payment systems they are also releasing a digital euro. And I read this as a pre European monetary Federerion feature atm. Could there be another rationale?

Depends on what you are looking for. Mistral’s strong suite is that it can use most, if not all European languages. Also Mistral’s basic architecture is much more (cost & energy) effective due to the use of their use of seperate expert nodes iirc.

It’s interesting to see how this Cyprus conference will further interpret, give substance to, and develop EUs security and competitiveness using EU’s Article 42.7 , with a new policy and maybe budget.

Head of EU states will need to do an extreme political balancing act, whether when and how an EU framework will provide more value to your money compared to individual solo memberstates expenditures. Money can only be spent once, either national or on EU level, and this will decide the EU future and shape it’s geopolitics.

No expert here, but it seems Siemens want their AI not to be treated under the same law as" regular" LLM AI. They have developed an industrial AI which can be used for automation processes optimisation.

Ah,. so there was more stuff going on? I’m curious now.

added. something weird is still going on per april. Are we sure this isn’t a disinfo campaign? like see here, about wayback machine and here 2, russia blocks archive today.

Just one site though and the " alleged" ddos atacks are personal:

“The entire situation revolves around an old blog post published nearly three years ago, in which Patokallio attempted to identify the individuals behind Archive.today.”

Has anyone any newer news yet? I thought it was under investigation by LW admin.

"Where I think it has gone wrong is that fundamentally Britain’s ‘asks’ are still the same,” another EU diplomat says. “They are asking for a ‘reset’ but it’s like old wine in new bottles: asking for being part of those areas of the single market only where they believe they have a competitive advantage. And they do not want to pay.”

So, we’ll see how it will go in July.
