They had to go back, because Microsoft moved it's German Headquarters to Munich (and thus paying corporate taxes there)in a backroom deal with the Mayor

It's almost like German Government and it's federalism isn't a monolith. 🤦‍♂️

The traffic coalition was awesome. It just was thrashed 24/7 in the News, but it was the best government in decades in Germany

Who cares, OVH also has Data Centers in Germany. The demand for those services won't disappear. These people will just be employed elsewhere

When it's hot during the day there is usually sun too. Solar makes this problem less worse

We should focus on reducing the emissions we can easily reduce right now. As I've said, intercontinental travel is not a huge part of plane travel/emissions in Europe.

You can make synthetic fuel from CO2 and lots of electricity, and researchers say, that this might be something for those long flights. But it will make them much much more expensive.

Night Trains for European Routes.
I do this regularly for all my long distance travels. It's unfortunately more expensive than flying, but it's better for the environment and you don't really lose time as it's over night.

Most flights aren't long distance, but "I want to get wasted 1000kms away on a 30€ easyJet Fare with the boys"
And even for the long distances in Europe, if the political will is there you could have High Speed Night Trains

Lol, does anybody believe that the company who broke repeatedly the law, and stole entire shadow libraries for their models and scrapes the internet excluded the data of European users before, and will do it now?

She did quite well keep the right wing assholes inside and outside under control for a decade. That's a win for me

I didn't had to provide any form of ID.

They lost support in several towns that are seeing hospital services cut back as part of the central government's savings drive.

Good. Austerity belongs in the trashcan of history
