They use the same terms of service for mobile games and they just dont bother to change it for pc games.

With almost a million people migrating out of Greece and tourism bouncing back hard after covid, of course unemployment will be lower in Greece. But outside of tourism, Greece is a zombie country.

Most of the people migrating out of Greece are young and educated. This will significantly affect the future of the country, both from a demographic point of view and policy.

For the first time ever, right wing parties got over 50% of the votes. Greece is a historically leftist country. The governing conservative party has like 3 right parties, further on its right in the parliament. Neonazis, christian talibans, you name it.

And while the governing party is trying to appeal to centists(in order to keep the left busy with in fighting), they also pander to the far right. And the worst part? The government has demolished freedom of press, increased spying on citizens and opposition, etc.

The stage is set for a greek Orban, but the current prime minister lacks the charisma and appeal. The infrastructure is there. Hopefully this will also reignite the leftist reaction instincts. Which is why the current prime minister is keeping a relatively low profile in regards to social issues(antiwokeness).

In fact, he made gay marriage legal in Greece and all the European leaders rejoiced. Except the only reason it wasnt already legal was because of his party. All other parties(except the neonazis and the communists) supported gay marriage. Many members of his party voted against it, but the law passed because the opposition supported it.

The greeks know the way.

Meanwhile, Greece's national drink is an ice coffee

I am glad the rest of the planet has joined the greeks. Who said that modern Greece isnt producing any new culture?

Greece doesnt have hummus. It exists in supermarkets but it is niche. It is probably considered more exotic in Greece than most of Europe.

However olive oil is used in all foods and for frying too. It is the nectar of Gods.

Noone identifies as rich, because as you become richer, your social circle also becomes richer. So you never really feel rich, because there are other people who are, significantly, richer than you.

If you dont worry about food, shelter and healthcare then you are rich(or at least "middle class"), ie free to do whatever the fuck you want with no risk or fear. You can have very low personal net worth but if your family(and/or society) has your back, no matter what, then you are not poor.

And since Norway has one of the highest home ownership rates, among non shitty countries, then even from a networth point of view, most norwegians probably have 500k+ € networth. Most countries with high home ownership are poor countries, where houses are cheap and shitty(people are migrating out of the country, so a lot of houses are available). Or countries like China and Singapore, where housing is a major priority for the government.

And in before "communism", Singapore is one of the most capitalistic countries on the planet. But providing housing is a big part of their social contract and how the dictatorship has managed to maintain control over the country for over half a century with minimum opposition. And tbh, the chinese government is similar. Authoritarian but provides economic prosperity/housing in order to keep society stable. Also communist mostly in name but actually capitalistic.

Is it because they are rich and dont want to cook?

A lot of turks living in Germany are(or descended from) poor, uneducated, turkish farmers who were imported to Germany many decades ago, as cheap labour, when Germany needed workers.

Not all immigrants(turkish or otherwise) are like that.

Walmart profit margins are razor thin(4%?). Yes, they made billions but only because they had insanely high revenue. If you have a 30% extra cost, even if Walmart absorbed as much as possible (4%), the price would still go up 26%(actually more).

People who think companies can absord such a sudden and drastic increase in cost are clueless.

This video explored the tariff cost on computer hardware, with some companies giving actual numbers. It shows how even small increases in tariffs(or any cost) can completely destroy the bottom line

All EU countries are supposed to eventually adopt the euro, including Sweden. Only Denmark has negotiated the right to not adopt the euro(unless they want to). So while countries can delay the euro adoption(indefinitely?), they are obligated to adopt it.

Maybe they dont want Hollywood to film movies in Canada or Mexico. Or maybe Trump is a child that does random stuff, who knows.

If you check the polls, nothing changed in Australia to justify the rapid drop of the right wing, except Trump.
