Deportation without due process? I doubt that is compatible with EU law.

Well, I think a personalized message (maybe in the primary language of the instance) is more effective than some standard text thats everywhere.

I think most instance admins realize that there is also a need to support the devs, and a single place that advertises both and can get linked from the sidebar might also be more bring more donations to the devs.

Der Mann scheint aber weniger Experte für große stationäre und langlebige Speicher zu sein. Kurzfristig mag ja Li-Ion billiger im Einkauf sein, aber wie man kürzlich in Kalifornien gesehen hat will man sowas aus Brandschutzgründen nicht in der Nähe von Siedlungen haben. Ausserdem ist Redox-flow ist deutlich langlebiger, einfacher zu reparieren und auch billiger zu erweitern. Für große stationäre Batterien eigentlich die ideale Technik auch wenn sie noch nicht so stark optimiert ist wie Li-ion.

Imho the best would be one that is customizable by the instance admins.

The militias in Rojava (northern Syria) are kinda working that way. There are no real ranks and they were quite effective fighting ISIL and Turkish proxy forces in recent years.

I meant their method to mechanically turn over the top soil to kill weeds. You can see it in the video.

War in dem Fall aber nicht so. Das EU Parlament hatte andere Kandidaten vorgeschlagen, und ein sehr indirektes Gremium von Leuten (Merkel usw.) hat beschlossen das zu ignorieren und das EU Parlament musste gute Miene zum schlechten Spiel machen.

Seems to confirm what I said. And Germany is literally discussing non-defense spending infrastructure projects that aid defense projects right now, so this isn't much different from what those experts are saying about China.

Hmm, constantly turning over the top soil like that seems bad for erosion, especially in outdoor fields.

There are generalized benefits from learning a language that will make it easier to learn other languages. But which language doesn't really matter, and learning a dead or artificial language might have some theoretical benefits in that regard, but in practical terms you will learn less of it as there is less material to practice on and in general the motivation to learn a language you can barely use will be low for most people.

I personally think it is more worthwhile to spend learning another EU language. The general benefit of better understanding how languages work will be the same, but you end up with a practical language skill. I am a bit tired of the argument anyways, having had to learn Latin with the exact same argument and it was a complete waste of time.

Yes, but EU defense spending now is a hundred billion higher and is projected to increase by another hundred billion by 2027. That double of what China is currently spending, and AFAIK they don't have plans to increase it by that much.
