Carney better not back down on Trumps new 100% across the board. We all need to convince at least two people still going to or buying from the USA to stop. And they’ll tell two friends and so on… and so on…

Buy european (and boycott USA) - Swiss edition 🇨🇭

Hi! I've been following the #buyeuropean movement since about a year and amidst current political events I felt the need to deepen my engagement. All existing lists and guides have been a great resource but I still felt like they didn't have an impact big enough on my consumer habits. This is why I did some research on everyday ...

I finally finished this weekend project of mine: https://ibuyfrom.eu
It is a simple tool to set a circle text on a profile picture (see mine for example). It is meant to help people show their support to the "Buy From EU" movement.
I'm happy to read critics on the usability and intuitiveness or anything else :)

I am looking for brands that produce wide shoes with arch support that are manufactured in Europe and can be bought in Spain.

Anyone some good recommendations?

ha. first winter night 5K (duo) done this year and I feel like I've done 15K...so it can't be better... (mixing up training + adding speed work: intervals, tempo runs, hill repeats to improve lactic acid tolerance and running economy in 2025 did the trick) ✌️✌️💖💖

I mean, 5K used to be a challenge even though I was running 23K.

After Jimmy Kimmel is gone, I wonder how long before Trump will try to pressure Google into removing the countless channels on YouTube making fun of Trump.

Here is a good example:

Hi Randahl.

I just was informed that besides DailyMotion, there is yet another French site to post videos, it is called PeerTube:

"Ignore the noise.
This is the real Europe.
Welcome to Europe.
Birthplace of industry.
Home of frontier tech."

Video source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_tWbrvd3E0

Description:
" “AC this, wash dryer that, US woohoo, EU boohoo” - Why are we eating this brand-warfare from the outside about us up?

Europe has the strongest precision manufacturing in the world, we have leading teams in AI, CV, robotics. Europe is a leader in Automation and Frontier Tech!

Not a single NVIDIA chip could be produced without European machines. Not a single American cloud, robotics, or deep-tech firm would operate without European manufacturing or suppliers.

But we are too humble. Brainwashed to never celebrate Europe. By outsiders and our local politicians.

Time for a change.

Europe is the birthplace of industrialization.
The home of frontier tech.

Time, we act like it.

Welcome to the real Europe! 🔥🇪🇺"

CAVOK OP , to Europe in US and EU strike trade deal setting 15 percent tariff

As far as I understand it, no. It's just American consumers that gets taxed. Sucks for EU businesses though because all their products will be 15% more expensive.

It's some thing that I just can't understand. There's a lot of that going on here - "buy European!". When I ask why European is somehow better by default, I get a lot of criticism in return. I've started to think of it as a cult. 😅

Unfortunate discussion now about how much should be considered, and in which surprisingly the European Parliament advisor Lukasz Klejnowski makes the important point that it can't be about the EU being fully autonomous.

Tech is global, the internet is global, and that's a good thing. And we can support and buy ethical tech globally as well.

Don't know what Google did but Fitbits are absolutely shit now. Battery dies in 1-2 days. Useless.

Google are good at killing things though. Chalk another one!

Any good EU smart watches? Bonus points if I can write my own software for them? Boosts welcomed!

Trump orders a 100% tariff on foreign movies 🎥

Should we boycott US movies too? 😉

Please share 3 European films that you liked and think others might like too!

We will start with 3 films that we have seen more than once:

  • Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain 🇫🇷
  • Goodbye Lenin 🇩🇪
  • Volver 🇪🇸

Your turn! 😀
