Honestly, I can’t see that we speed up somewhere. All I read is that last year was a new high in CO2 emissions. There‘s simply no time to buy anymore. I assume Geoengineering is the only way we can somehow keep the climate reasonable. Even it comes with additional dangers. That’s how humankind keeps progressing. E.g. Anyone going to stop AI? Or even social media? No!
No it’s a self verification. Bots always write correctly and never intimidate, you fuckas.
Just watched on tv a documentary about strikes a hundred years ago in the US. Facing the Rockefellers, Carnegies and alike. Police was shooting them down. That’s the US. Railroaders are on strike just today in Germany.
Okay understood. You might have read that I excluded those with an agenda.
I guess it doesn’t fit in a yes/no thinking if there‘s a third option.
People need to point on who’s good and who’s the bad, don’t they? Makes life easier.
There‘s nothing more annoying than a group of „individuals“ on a night tour. Each move, either in this or that club, to the right or to the left, stay or lesve this place, as to be discussed in deep detail and from every micro perspective. Until a shared view emerges.
It’s simply a better way to be a group of people to have a leader who hs a say. Good leaders care about the group members and might even have more experience than the groups individuals. I‘m quite happy to have a guide in a museum who can tell stories about the images. I‘m happy to have a leader to follow in the mountains. And I‘m happy to have someone leading a group through new fields of anything, so I learn from an experienced and might do my own steps in this s field alone.
True. Accounting is the best friend of digitization.
However, it’s not always bad to look what makes sense or drive profit and what not. It’s rather a matter of how religious one is about it.
Take the second wave of computerism for example. What we call Digitalization. This is mainly driven by opportunities and chances of new business not so much about squeezing out the last percent of profit. This all is accounted as well, but management doesn’t care.
Yes and No. It’s a stupid privatization they did.
They privatized the railroad, but never sold some stocks. Now, it’s a private company owned by the state and subsidized by tax payers.
Oh, it‘s no better over the ocean. A German colleague of mine just settled in the US and civil servants attitude and bureaucracy is the same shit. Bureaucracy seems to be an international culture.
Interesting point of view - your accounting thing.
However, that doesn’t really fit to Deutsche Bahn, I think. Your point is rather about a Monopoly but an accounting exercise.
Indeed there are worse countries. I think of Cuba for example, where it’s more about „the train arrives this day.“
However, in German culture the notion of timeliness and efficiency is very strong. Our expectations to our railroad is high as it was quite on time the last decades. And it perfectly fits into our recent feeling of become mediocre as a country. There‘re so many challenges that where Germany falls behind other countries and isn’t in the top 10 anymore.
Part of the real causes of this trouble is that the railroad was privatized 30 years ago. Together with Deutsche Post (now DHL) and Deutsche Telekom. All those three went international. Two with success. Deutsche Bahn expanded into road freight quite heavily as there was opportunity to grow and money to make. They took the money granted for the rails and invested it into trucks. The German government is now in discussions to unbundle the company and split it into small „tasks“ so they focus on their main business. The Bahn deserved to be cut down into pieces. Not well managed.
Nice. Just received my parcels today for this fun. Can’t wait for tomorrow and toy around.
It’s a bit my car is bigger than yours.
Or better: my next car is going to be bigger than yours.

Don’t think so. If majors of every small and big city say in media, that they can’t cope it, then this seems a fact. Not right wing propaganda.
They already started to build beds in sport halls as we‘d seen in Syria war. Despite that it isn’t a war responsible for the situation now. This people aren’t Ukraineans.
Don’t know if that helps you - here in Europe it doesn’t look better. In all countries you can choose between the crazy, the stupid and the as-always. I‘m afraid the politics machine transforms you in one of those or scares away the motivated.
