Rewarding the US with a billion dollar purchase after they've slapped you with a 35% tariff while Switzerland has none on US goods would be the ultimative Cuck move

This binding arbitration bullshit is unenforceable in Germany anyways for end users

I'm wondering if they used ChatGPT to crank this bullshit out

So, they surpass North Korea in their search of criticism of the dear leader?

Nearly nobody will pay sticker price though. They have to set an absolute bullshit price, so the Pharmacy Benefit Managers can "negotiate" a huge "discount" (=real price) to show how much savings and value they create.

It's the same with costs for Hospitals in the US (huge Bullshit Sticker Price, insurance negotiates a "discount" for the employer, and gets a percentage for the service and savings they provide)

You overestimate wildly how much pharmaceutical companies Vs Universities contribute to the R&D to a new drug

Glaube du machst dir da einen größeren Kopf drum als sie. Wenn du jetzt nicht irgendwo im Osten oder einer kleinen Stadt studierst, werden sie es sehen, es sich denken, und sich auch nicht weiter drum kümmern

AF447 was pilot error and not cheapening out knowingly on the construction to save money.

The whole Boeing 737 is completely outdated and wouldn't get approved today. Like they would have needed a new pilot warning system for years, but are just rolling by with exemptions after exemption

It's very mean of Germany that foreigners who trash University property and threaten their staff violently face deportation.

How can they do such a suppression of free speech?

What new Gear Hub Tech?

If you don't have much money you get an Alpine 8/11, (or a Nexus Hub if you're really on a budget) if you have much money you get a Rohloff Speedhub, which was the best hub 20 years ago, is the best hub today and will be the best hub in 20 years. And also will last a lifetime.

I just want my commuting bike to drive without much maintenance efforts.

Also there is no shame in periodically selling your old bike and getting a new one. Or buying a cargo bike if you need one. It's still way cheaper than driving

Any hobby entry point can cascade into upgraditis

Only if you allow to develop a weird relationship with it. Cycling is where I am for most people just a tool of getting from A to B, they don't want to spend much money on it
