According to Wikipedia, the Chicago metropolitan area has a population of about 10 million people, far less than Poland’s 38 million, which makes your claim completely impossible from the start. In fact, according to other articles, it seems that there are about 185 000 people of Polish descent living in Chicago (less than half a percent of the population of Poland), and a bit less than 10 million in the entire US (which is significant compared to the population of Poland, but still “only” about a quarter). And this article claims that there are “roughly 20 000 000 people of Polish ancestry living outside Poland” [in total], which is still less than the population of Poland.

Dev Home is a new control center for Windows providing the ability to monitor projects in your dashboard using customizable widgets, set up your dev environment by downloading apps, packages, or repositories, connect to your developer accounts and tools (such as GitHub), and create a Dev Drive for storage all in one place.

  • Use the centralized dashboard with customizable widgets to monitor workflows, track your dev projects, coding tasks, GitHub issues, pull requests, available SSH connections, and system CPU, GPU, Memory, and Network performance.
  • Use the Machine configuration tool to set up your development environment on a new device or onboard a new dev project.
  • Use Dev Home extensions to set up widgets that display developer-specific information. Create and share your own custom-built extensions.
  • Create a Dev Drive to store your project files and Git repositories.

Germany for example adds up to 101% though, that would be impossible if they had truncated. Most likely they simply did round to full percent.

A compact car is already perfectly capable of towing a trailer, no pickup truck needed. Just ask the Dutch.

Klaus Martin Schwab (German: [klaʊs ˈmaʁtiːn ʃvaːp]; born 30 March 1938) is a German engineer, economist, and founder of the World Economic Forum (WEF). […] Schwab was professor of business policy at the University of Geneva from 1972 to 2003 […] While Schwab declared that excessively high management salaries were “no longer socially acceptable”,[30] his own annual salary of about one million Swiss francs (a little more than $1 million USD) has been repeatedly questioned by the media.

Now, you might think that sounds more like a typical neo-liberal than anything, but don’t be fooled. Luckily we got the guy with the racist meme username above to enlighten us that this guy is really the second coming of Karl Marx. /s

To be fair, those forklifts can be quite dangerous. Just ask Klaus.

You’re not wrong about the second half of your sentence, but it is quite common, unfortunately. Besides, I think the cow in the picture is meant to be representative for the entire meat industry, not just beef (other meats are still terrible for the climate, of course, just not as bad as beef).

Die Menschen fühlen sich bestätigt gar genötigt diesen Anforderungen zu entsprechen und handeln deswegen unmoralisch, weil sie ihre Verantwortung ausklammern.

Ich würde an der Stelle sogar noch einen Schritt weiter gehen. Es wird von Kapitalsmusfans und der weiteren Gesellschaft häufig implizit und manchmal auch explizit suggeriert, dass eine kapitalistische Handlungsweise, insbesondere Profitmaximierung um jeden Preis, ethisch gut sei und zu einem für alle optimalen Ergebnis führe. D.h., die Menschen klammern nicht nur die Verantwortung aus, sondern wenn sie eher naiv sind glauben sie vielleicht sogar, dass sie moralisch handeln würden, selbst wenn es erstmal ihrer Intuition widerspricht. Dann gibt es das Ganze auch noch abgeschwächt in der Form, dass Kapitalismus als das geringere übel bzw. das “am wenigsten schlechte” Wirtschaftssystem gesehen wird, was aber auch wieder indirekt impliziert, dass entsprechendes unmoralisches, kapitalistisches Handeln notwendig wäre, selbst wenn es unmoralisch ist, was es somit auch wieder legitimisiert.
