As if the companies would think long term instead of yearly profit… whoever comes up with a one and done flu vaccine will see an enormous (if short) spike in profits and shareholders will want that spike to sell at the highest price possible and maybe get some dividends along the way.
Man, I love the EU.

Steam actually developed an entire toolkit allowing developers to price their products fairly. Even as far as by purchasing power parity or market strength per country. This was done after Polish gamers complained about their games being the same price as in Germany.

But it is up to the sellers to use those tools, Steam does not compell pricing.
And I just looked it up, this might have been broken in the past, but they updated it recently: https://youtu.be/Nz4FOKZRX_8
Still, developers need to use this.
When France and Germany did not follow the US under G. W. Bush into Iraq in 2003, the language used did not differ significantly from the language about not following the US into the Straight of Hormuz.
Obama had SOOO MUCH to make up for and wasn’t able to rehabilitate the image of the US… and then everything got EVEN WORSE!
You’ve been like this AT LEAST since Regan. Trump is not the cause, he is a SYMPTOM of a sickness that has festered for AT LEAST 45 years, not only in your politics but in american society.
I imagine it’ll take about the same amount of time to change the american people back into a nation that can be respected instead of feared and loathed.
Trump is nothing, he’s unimportant in the grand scheme of things. The real enemy is the mindset of a majority (republican or democrat) of americans.
Polymarket clains there is no house, but they still act as “betting against” on some outlandish bets.
The dying frog asks the scorpion why it stung despite knowing the consequence, to which the scorpion replies: “I am sorry, but I couldn’t help myself. It’s my character.”
Oh shit, that sounds exactly like Lekvar or Powidl, that might point to a mostly eastern European, maybe German but more likely Slavic origin.
Quark is the superior creme cheese in all regards, except as a topping for bread rolls.
I feel like sour and chocolate don’t mix well… but there is Quark with chocolate chips and some people like it, I’m just not one of them.
Most expensive one I could find with a simple google search in Germany is € 12.54 per kg,
the ones pictured above are 680g, so for $ 7.49 that’s $ 11.01 or € 9.55 per kg (at current exchange rate)
Average price for pasta sauce in Germany seems to be around € 5.00 / kg, but then the Rao’s might be among the pricier sauces in the US?
You… aren’t Violet08… nice! Moar people hornyposting.
Is that fuckin’ Tom Cardy??! Yeah? Nah? Yeahnah? Yeah?
Idk man, sitting in front of Fred Durst assaulting a cat girl would kinda freak me out.
As a German: Hell yes! The Nazis needed putting down and that entire worldview got a thrashing that lastet us a good 70 years before Germany is on the verge of falling to the fash again.
That’s why Germans mix juices at least half and half with sparkling water… mmmmhmmmm Schorle…
Berlin Fernsehturm is older, if anything the Canadians are the copycats.
Go use some Firefox-derivative like Librewolf or Fennec, like a sane person.
So the war itself, absent the bombings had no power of destruction, killed no one?
Isn’t it every nationalist everywhere? I like it because it’s so universal, the great truth of blind nationalism marching proudly into doom.
