Terces

I hate typing on my phone and English is not my first language, so I guess the point I was trying to make didn't quite make its way through. Sorry.

The more conservative party left the coalition because they value their "sovereignty" and "independence" and thus don't want to play by the rules of the EU. To me they basically just trade one Dependance for another. They want to still be able to sell their oil to the EU, so they depend on EU's demand for oil, but they don't want to give up some freedoms even though that in turn would bolster their independence in the energy sector (even more local renewable electricity production, improved infrastructure that would be less susceptible to failure, and so on).

It just makes no sense to me. The EU directives are actually quite in line (or could easily be spun into line) with the ideals of traditionally conservative parties. Yet everywhere (not just Norway), those parties HATE renewable energy. And I think it is pretty clear that money is the big factor here...

Also...maybe I'm blind, but nowhere in the article it's mentioned that Norway produces its energy with hydro?

I'm always surprised at what their argument is. "Don't make us invest in cheap renewable energy that will make us independent from other countries". Sure, they export quite a bit, but that makes your economy dependant on external demand. In all other areas the right leaning parties want to sever themselves from outside influence, except when it involves money....

But he hates being made fun of. He wants people to be angry with him, because that shows him he has some form of power over them (withholding funding makes "the left" angry -> for him that's good). And he loves to see himself as smart and strong. But if you ridicule him....that hits him.

Ich bin für ein Tempolimit, allerdings kann ich verstehen, dass sich die Geister bei der Höhe des Limits scheiden. Ich glaube die Akzeptanz eines Tempolimits würde stark steigen, wenn das Limit nicht 130,sondern vielleicht 140 wären. Je höher das Limit, desto größer vermutlich auch die Zustimmung. Ich glaube fast alle würden zustimmen, dass niemand mit 230 auf der Autobahn fahren muss. Sicherlich kann man für den Anfang einen Kompromiss mit einem höheren Limit finden und dann in ein paar Jahren, wenn sich alle dran gewöhnt haben, das Limit noch einmal senken.

If the patients hadn't been transgender, this would not have been dropped. It is illegal to share that data no matter what...

I would love to join, but the whole registration process fails at every turn. Mails aren't sent, login pages just do refresh...please...just let me iiiiinn

I think this is true for computers that are in danger of being stolen. Laptops or PCs in dorms or other shared living spaces. But I live in a relatively secure area, burglaries are very rare and my PC never leaves the building. So the benefits of encryption are pretty much negligible.

Eigentlich hatte die Debatte beendet sein müssen, als die Betreiber gesagt haben, dass das keinen Sinn ergibt.

Die Tatsache, dass wir eben jederzeit Strom aus unseren Nachbarländern einkaufen können zeigt doch eindeutig, dass die Versorgungssicherheit gewahrt ist.

Oh nein...der Preis steigt etwas! Dann nimmt man etwas Geld in die Hand und unterstützt die privaten Haushalte.

Allerdings stimme ich zu, dass die Preissteigerungen schnell kamen und auch Unternehmen nicht die Chance hatten das alleine abzufedern. Das bedeutet auch sie haben eine Unterstützung verdient.

Woher soll das Geld kommen? Es werden viele Dinge subventioniert, die wenig Sinn ergeben. Es werden Unternehmen und Privatpersonen nicht besteuert, die mehr als genug haben. Wir haben eine soziale Marktwirtschaft und das bedeutet halt auch das man solidarisch ist und alle, ALLE! mit anpacken, wenn das Land mal schwierigere Zeiten durchmacht.

People really didn't read the article. The government broadened the availability of MAiD an now this woman (or rather her condition) qualifies for it. That is actually good.

What's bad is that the general healthcare for people with her condition is terrible. This might make some people afflicted with the same disease choose death just because they cannot seek better treatment.

All of which cost more than a 100000 dollars but were still somehow bought on a whim for that one experiment that one time...

I think this gave me a brain aneurism.....wth.

I had no cancer, but know people that did and one thing that came up often is that people tend to distance themselves from them. Not in a mean way, but dealing with special needs is tedious and that is often just a cause to not do certain things. Spending time together (no matter what you end up doing) gives a sense of normalcy and can really push someone to keep fighting. Cancer is a marathon with additional sprints (chemo) on top. Not being alone through all of this is a huge help
