"Considers" doesn't mean anything, especially not for a conservative government. I'll believe it when I see it

[-] [email protected] 3 points 17 hours ago

The new government may use some free time to steer away from the migration-debate they're currently lost in. Considering the speed Germany acts having its finger on the pulse time, no Big Tech must fear anything although the idea behind this is quite okay. Then, the German forces (Bundeswehr) announce that their new digital platform is built partnered with Google so hey... it's a little bit nuclear saber-rattling and in the end everything blow out somehow. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Why is there Wikipedia logo in the pic?

[-] [email protected] 13 points 1 day ago

Probably because the person who made the image didn't really think too hard about their job.

Europe Imports More Services than goods from the US and A

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Sure, but on the picture we see aliexpress, Amazon and zalando, sellers of physical goods.

Granted, Amazon also sells digital services, but the others do not.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 21 hours ago

I thought it says Germany considers 10% tax on internet girls

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

Wouldnโ€™t make a difference. Everyone knows there are no girls on the internet.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

There should be at least 10% tax on literally everything, except things the government wants to actually incentivize like solar panels.
