Alternativvorschlag: wir verbieten/regulieren die Algorithmen, die dazu führen dass Social Media süchtig macht

Hab gerade erst „Celsius“ von Marc Elsberg gelesen…

Zur Info: der Artikel ist aus dem Januar 2025

Ungefähr so wird es (unter anderem) in Norwegen und Island gemacht: alle machen mindestens bis zur 10. Klasse, bis zur 13. Klasse ist dann optional, wobei das 90% aller Schüler:innen auch machen.

„E-Scooter-Unfall mit Toten Zwillingen“ hört sich so an als ob zwei tote Menschen E-Scooter fahren würden und dabei einen Unfall verursachen.

Warum nicht einfach „Unfall mit zwei Todesopfern“?

Es erschließt sich mir immer noch nicht, warum Kapitalerträge (also Einkommen ohne eigene Leistung) geringer besteuert und ohne Sozialabgaben belastet werden, aber ein reguläres Gehalt (Einkommen durch eigene Arbeitsleistung) so hoch.

Wie war das noch gleich mit der Sprachpolizei und den Sprechverboten?

The EU must stop the digitalization of the deportation regime

5 out of the 7 CDU cabinet members are lawyers.

„Verkrempelung“ finde ich eine schöne Übersetzung für „enshittification“

Das bekommt die CDU dafür, dass sie die Inhalte der AfD kopiert.

Can we please call it EUtube?

Users can choose it, but it isn’t the default

The second generation of Spectrum will be larger and could potentially be reusable. As I understand this, the current version is simply too weak for all the extra components that reusability requires.

There are other companies tasked with the development of reusable rockets for ESA, though.

Some background info on the company:

Isar Aerospace was founded by former students of the Technical University of Munich, who already participated in the WARR group which also won Elon Musk’s Hyperloop competition several times.

They received fundings from (among others) Airbus, NATO and a former SpaceX executive Bulent Altan (who studied at TUM as well).

Very impressive achievement already and a real hope for European space programs and independence!

If you have an account on Mastodon, you can just write them a private message and suggest it. I did it multiple times in the past and they are always happy to add new services.

I get what you’re saying and agree that high transaction fees keep merchants from offering it as a payment option.

However, in my rant I’m merely talking about P2P money transfers, nothing B2C. And since most people are lazy and scrimpers, a service needs to have a very good offer for people to start using it. That’s where Wero could improve, in my opinion.

Plus, having a large user base would help them in the long run with convincing merchants to offer Wero as a payment option, wouldn’t it?

I think it‘s inherently difficult to persuade thousands of banks in Europe (and potentially worldwide) to actively join Wero, or any other service for that matter.

In my opinion, Wero – to be a viable option for anyone – should make their service something that the people can and WANT to use. Maybe I’m naive but adding the option to connect a bank account via IBAN and SEPA mandate shouldn’t be too complicated, right?

You could in the past (until around 1-2 years ago). I don’t know why it changed, though.
