Funding education, funding social services, funding mental healthcare. Enforcing existing laws against harassment on big tech.

One of the biggest social media platforms is spamming child porn, they’ve all been proven to be addictive on purpose, and we’re blaming teenage users.

Please take it from a Hungarian, you don’t know how bad is it in there.

He is for tighter EU integration, and he is wishy-washy on Ukraine because he’s being called “Pete Ukrainian, the puppet of Brussels and Zelenskyy” by all radio channels, all but one TV channels, 70% of all billboards, every state news broadcast, every local newspaper and so on basically every 30 minutes for the past 2 years.

There is total media capture in Hungary by the government, and you can’t beat that if you let them dictate the topic of the day. The government wants the election to be about Ukraine and geopolitical 4D chess, Magyar wants it to be about rich people raping orphans and the total collapse of state services.

So we don’t talk about Ukraine. It fucking sucks. We also don’t talk about a lot of other very important topics.

The equivalent of these people did not live in commie blocks either. The people who did still live in tenements or are straight up homeless.

Communist societies not having a large middle class is a different question though.

Can you elaborate?

Several of the claims made by your paywalled article are just uncritical repetitions of misinformation peddled by the Orbán government.

Magyar is not perfect, but IDK why the FUD

IDK, I’ve been here a few years, the company has existed for another few.

If it starts getting uncomfy, I’ll start looking for a better one. It worked out so far.

It’s the EU making the purchase though. Voting with its wallet so to speak. Nobody forces anyone to do anything.

Me not buying McDonald’s is not a distortion of the free market either, just a healthy dietary and monetary decision.

How many jobs did that same automotive industry shed in nearshoring countries like Poland and Hungary?

Because my bet is none. And that paying bribes for the shoddy labour laws in other countries and moving jobs there to circumvent unions has always been the plan.

While my heart bleeds for the cause of the Ukrainians, there is no fairness or honour in war.

It’s not fair that Ukraine and Ukrainians need to bleed alone either. I’m not going to begrudge war refugees for being men.

Well, if the analogy continues, by 2045 there is going to be a Chinese dude with too many wristwatches putting a Chinese flag on the Capitol building while other Chinese dudes drive German and French made military trucks rolling about in the ruined DC streets.

Exclusivity is still a shitty thing. How does it make the service better for consumers?

Where in Europe does a private company do this?

GDPR explicitly outlaws it.

Good workplaces are like the after-school extracurricular classes, you go because you’re interested, it’s fun to problem-solve with people.

I have to be regularly told to go home at the end of the day.

Morrowind is definitely a looker, that art style is something Beth has never been able to approach again.

But hard agree on the VFX.

Less and less these days.

In fact, some old Windows games ran better for me on Linux than new Windows.

There was a discussion earlier when I looked up figures for this, obviously the data is pre-Trump.

People in the US spend so little on food because they spend much more on insurance, rent and vehicle maintenance than Europeans.

Disposable income is a similar proportion, with the US average being a bit more on absolute terms, while the EU average being a bit more on PPP.

In any case this is an IIRC bit, so I might be wrong.

In my experience it’s not about writing the prompt, it’s refusing 4 out of 5 changes with additional info to refine it.

The problem is that if you don’t know what the not should be doing, one random error it does is enough to then make it into the context and propagate everywhere.

Up to the French government, and everyone who works in the French weapons industry.

France is the world’s second biggest arms exporter behind the US, and the EU just agreed to buy a shitton of weapons.

On top of that, the 5% (actually 3.5%) was literally approved with a hanger-on saying that at least 80% has to be EU-domestic. Which practically means largely French.

The rest is mixed US and other, but for example South Korean imports are also going strong.

France would approve 30% if it was up to them, they are one of the biggest military producers of Europe if not the world.

Trump was stupid and when he thought that increasing the military budget would mean that all that money would go to buying US weapons. Even Orbán who was glazing Trump as much as he could bought German and Swedish arms instead of US.

Trump had been had at that discussion as well as the big trade deal by Europe.

Just want to say that Orbán has always acted in a way to please German industry lobbies.

He is where he is because of that and German conservative governments keeping him in power.

What got to him was Merkel retiring and the new people no longer letting him get away with shit and no longer funding his system that uses EU money to keep oppressing Hungarians.
