The EU building 4,000 military vehicles sounds a stretch until you consider the EU manufactures ~15m cars a year. Industrial capacity is not the issue here.

Maybe just buy a lot of short dated puts then put the block out. If the US is going to be down several regulatory entities might as well have some fun.

Getting close to a mobile handset moment where incremental improvements in EVs get to a point where customers are not going to care too much and it all becomes run of the red queen dynamics in autos again.

In Germany, Fasching is underway (like Mardi Gras or Carnival). It's usually marked by brutal political humor, and this year, Trump is getting the worst of it. He's viewed uniformly as Putin's bitch.

This is really the backdrop for Dirty Harry: the Bay Area as some kind of depraved and decaying hell of petty crime and high IQ sociopaths including corrupt politicians.

A cool trick to fix this is have a government login like singpass so during election season you default to filtering out non citizens / non verified humans.

Germany selling out to Russia over Nordstream was self-sabotage but it had a logic: Russia had cheap gas that Germany could use. The US turning towards Russia is mad. The US is the world’s biggest oil and gas producer. What does Russia have that America needs?

Any nation that is dependent on Starlink for military comms should be building sovereign capability. Don’t want to become a hostage to the whims and bullying from the US.

Dear German friends — we’re hearing in Canada how the far-right extremist AfD party is polling well in part because they’re “strong on social media”, Elon Musk’s interference, & their attempts to appear mainstream. Please look closely at the chaos Musk & extremists are creating in the United States.

Countries should be straight up banning Starlink -- massive national security risk

The US waged a global campaign against Huawei on exactly this pretext -- "do not trust a Chinese company with communications infrastructure, they will work against you when you are most vulnerable" Good luck trying to convince any country to boycott Chinese products after this incident

To get the EV tax credit “on the hood” you sign away your right to claim the credit to the dealer. This means that if congress repeals the credit, it will screw over dealers. Who are overwhelmingly Republicans. So I don’t see how they will repeal retroactively. #EnergySky

Delving into the latest AEMO report and it is fairly clear that strategic bidding is what is pushing up prices right now. Hopefully batteries ameliorate this over time #EnergySky

This prison sentence is great to see. I hope the thousands of other trolls who abused Brittany Higgins while she was suffering the traumatic aftermath of being raped consider the damage they did. Their only interest was defending a rapist. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-02...
