So far, „sky“ is pretty nice

No. However, the FDP are basically terrorists at this point and will stop at nothing to praise the „Schwarze Null“

Im fine with republicans getting the secret detail they deserve.

France has repeatedly tried to hand over shared control of those nukes to Germany. I’d argue that this alliance is set in stone.

Europe is a nuclear power with second strike capability. „Practically disarmed„ is rather different

Wie war das? „wie es in den Wald hinein schallt…“ oder so?

It’s an investment? Just like an office building or a company car?

Depends. Is it stable? Does it pose a threat to passer bys ?

I‘d have to get my tables from work. It highly depends on the species, soil, size, location, age, natural area of the species and so forth. A decently sized oak at around 100-150 years old usually gets weighed in at around 2000€. Variation however is a given.

Trees prevent soil erosion, keep water clean, provide the basis for many beneficial insects and so forth and so on. They have a giant value in our financial system.

All of these views are valid. A tree has to be seen for what it can provide. If it’s more valuable to society and nature as a tree, leave it be. If other trees can gain from it being removed earlier than its natural decay demands, I’d argue to remove it.

Dogs would be a good example for ring species, which show the outer limits of the species definition, if they they occurred in the wild in their many diverse forms. But since they are not, I’d group them as one species still, as their origin is artificial and so are, at least partly, their means of reproduction.

In theory: yes, most likely. In practice? No.

„Bürgerliches Bündnis“- oder anders formuliert: „AfD ist schon geil autoritär“.

Please don’t.

I’d argue Dresden is rather nice, along with being home to some of these people, it would make them really feel their defeat I think.

Pigs definitely have a social intelligence that at least rivals those of dogs, if it doesn’t surpass it. Just because we keep them in a way that traumatises them from an early age on, doesn’t mean pigs aren’t socially intelligent. Wild boar and the like form highly complex social structures and are quite able to communicate in between one another. The only thing pigs actually express more than dogs is the utter disregard for anything but their own survival when under duress. This however might be explained by the way they reproduce. Pigs are K-Strategists, whereas dogs aren’t.

Usually you’d go to the bank with the project and they ask you for securities, oftentimes the house your building or the ability to garnish your wages. Also they demand to know how much you’ve saved so far. Can’t give loans to everyone?

Why not? The concept is fairly easy to grasp and if I want a loan for a house, the bank can ask me to prove that I was able to put aside enough money beforehand to be able to chip away at a credit from now on.
