I think thats a bit naive. Sites will track you even when you pay for it. Do you think anyone would ever give up such a lucrative technology?
Nations don't have friends only interests. Shoring up the US economy is in everyone's interest up to a certain point ofcourse everyone is exposed to US debt- but when the US starts imposing tariffs to keep out other…
If Huawei delivers good products for less money I have no doubt many will go with them. Meanwhile US companies can raise their prices thanks to the monopoly the US government just handed them.
Words are cheap. We will see how many patriotic people will gray import Chinese products to avoid the Trump tax.
Emergency services need to hear your voice and background noise in order to determine what exactly is going on.
So you are angry with Amazon because they sell what you want? Amazon is providing a good enough service that you buy from them, evidently.
And that was KPN as well. Maybe time to give them the boot.
Allow me to say: in a well regulated capitalism. We all know Standard Oil. Don't blame Amazon if you can't be bothered to use another store. But I am Dutch, I would walk 10 kilometres just to save 50 cents as a matter…
Shipping. The US is huge and many parts are sparsely populated. You can free deliver in 12 hours in New York and make a profit. But you can't do that in North Dakota. Amazon has the infrastructure to deliver anywhere in…
Indeed. Stores are not your friend. And its not like it was better before Amazon. In fact with online shopping I learned how those brick and mortar retailers were scamming me for decades with their middleman rent…
Yeah Amazon will likely be beaten by a Chinese company at some point. There is no domination in capitalism. A new competitor always shows up. Consumers are not loyal to Amazon- they will shop anywhere. If you don't…
Wildfires are often manmade and exacerbated by climate change. Besides it doesn't matter what chokes you in the end dead is dead. I don't know if the US has air quality norms? If so it could force strong measures that…
One can argue if the US government is elected. Many people dont even bother to vote. And big states like California and New York are openly at war with the current administration.
Yeah I always roll my eyes when people talk about "the West". Even the right wing political parties here would be considered center left in the US.
Its funny the US is saved from all this by the immigrants it hates. The rest of us have 20 years to invent robots that can replace workers... At least people have saved for their retirement here so its not going to…
They put tariffs on all steel- not just China. Seriously I fear that Trump is running out of people to piss off. But hey if you can get those votes in swing districts thats all that matters in the end. A few thousand…
You would need people to sort it by hand. There is no way you're going to find people who want to do that for a living in Western Europe. And even if you did you would have to pay them a decent wage.
What happened before the recycling movement was that Western waste was burned in Western waste disposal facilities. This created a ton of toxic shit. Shipping it off to Asia or Africa kept our skies clear. So the…
The newest cargo ships and tankers that operate in Western Europe aren't really the problem. Cruiseships have been ignored for a long time because tourism=money.
Keep in mind that the latest generation of cargo ships can carry 20000 containers.
Its really unfortunate. Your lawyer will tell you not to take the polygraph. Your lawyer will tell you not to sign a damn thing. Your lawyer will tell you to STFU. Your lawyer will tell you about all the little…
Indeed. My grandfather worked at a coal mine and after that he laid tram rails with his bare hands. This was during the reconstruction decades after WW2. I don't know how things are exactly in the US but my country is…
In a country were you're never more than 1500 metres away from a supermarket I always find grocery delivery extremely lazy. Retail will die and I won't shed a tear but we don't need everything delivered...
China wants the seat at the table back and reinstate themselves as a world power. Unlike the USSR they have the economic, military, diplomatic and cultural power to be an equal to the current players. Accommodate or…
Its just hilarious example of how China is part of the global economy despite Trumps escalating tweets (trade deficit continues to climb by the way if anyone's interested). I am sure China knows everything about the…
