Yosemite. Antisemite. Lots of mites to keep track of.

They should build a wall!

It's impossible not to make an ass of yourself when you come across an edgelord. Like I'm currently doing, mr edgelord. ;D

The moral of the story: make more music people would like to fuck to. -
No no no. You're seeing it completely wrong. Seeing how few people outside the Netherlands ride bikes regularly, the Dutch -on average - are frigging bike masters. Could always be better. But at least they know the fundamentals of how to ride a bike. The fact we don't dominate the sport (apart from Mathieu vd Poel) means little. There's still plenty of fruitcakes biking abroad. Plenty people view the Tour de France. If the situation was more like with speedskating, the Netherlands would dominate biking as well. Not many people watch the world cup speedskating. Tour de France... I don't know. That's close to world league football in terms of world wide viewers? And I mean the eggshape football, you're allowed to keep in your hands. Not soccer. The actual football you're not allowed to hold in your hands. ;D

At least we know what his game plan is: take everything to court! Even if it's useless, go the long way and frustrate the process as much as possible. That's how you do business. The asshole is taking the GOP with him down the shitter.

Dude, that's an insult! ;D Netherlands is biking country numero uno! We have the best bikers! No intention to move, btw. No reason. As of yet.

thanks, darwin! :S

If you take the covid-event as an example, I think you see a couple of things. Yes, priority (similar to political will) is important. But you also see the same urgency in non-governmental institutes. And basically the general public. Including the market. (yes, there are some counterexamples, but the general picture is that the markets tend to be even more strict than some governments) And no, this global action is actually pretty disorganised. Take the attitude of various countries, for example. Most countries are fighting for themselves, instead of working together. Take the scarcity wrt facemasks early on, for example. Or a certain country buying the first X months of stock of new therapies/vaccines for themselves. Wrt climate change, there are a number of differences which are relevant. The obvious is the immediate urgency. And then there's also way more uncertainty involved. Without improved climate policies, you *may* end up with a worse situation in a decade or so. With improved policies, you might still end up with a worse situation in a decade. The question about what good and effective policies would be, is more difficult and complex to answer, than compared to covid. And the potential results are decades into the future. If you could measure the effect. The other factor is that global politics is just part of the puzzle. It's everyone involved. Corporations too. There is no single bullet fixing this issue. Neither governments nor the market alone can *fix* this. It's not an either/or thing. It's an all of the above thing. IF it can be fixed, that is. I'm personally very sceptical of the notion that we can engineer the climate effectively. I mean, we need to improve our behaviour and all that. No argument there. But the outcome of that...well.. we might be fucked anyways. At least, I assume that to be the case.

It has little to do with sound quality, but the sounds themselves are f-ing interesting

I'm sure a lot of the money is being funnelled into the shadow economy of tax havens. Reporting losses to the government leaves you less taxes to pay. It's all a ponzi scheme for the uber rich getting richer.

It's all Silicon Valley logic to me. Ek makes as much sense as Zuckberg. It's a heavily skewed logic. But with truth behind it, because the monopoly is real. There are lots of people lost in their walled gardens. And the more people in their walled garden, the stronger their ability to play the role of the leader of a cult. Lots of followers who believe in what they preach, I'm guessing. For the outsider, at least for me, it's mostly scientology-speak.

He died laughing? /too soon

The impact of that comment will have an impact that will be felt by generations to come. The history between RDJ and Joyrex basically has a before and after "quite good". Although the kickstart-event should not be ignored, the "quite good" event is the WATMM-equivalent to the big meteorite that ended the dinosaurs period. ?

He wont. He's black...

Joyrex has the same level of understanding of British as the Dutch? What a backhanded compliment! ;D

US on a massive diet. I guess the fight against obesity is the best approach to fight the corona virus...
