Five and a half million Germans could not heat their homes sufficiently in 2022 due to lack of money
I'm not sure how a personal budget app can help you keep track of a Heizkostenverteiler/heating cost allocator. There's many unknowns during the operation time and even the landlord is given a year to crunch the numbers before they bill the tenants.
What is progress is that people on district heating now get their kWh consumption readings every few months.
Why was there this law in the first place?
In Europe at least, it was often explained as "same-sex marriage and parenthood are not allowed, and a legal gender change cannot be a loophole to that". But it appears to be a post-hoc rationalisation since the forced sterilisation programmes have many more targets in the past until it was progressively abandoned for more and more groups. It was also becoming untenable since more and more countries were legalising same-sex parenthood.
So, if we are being more honest, it's eugenics.

„Mir steht es als Politikerin nicht zu, zu urteilen: Diese Autos stehen hier zu viel im Straßenraum herum“
Trotzdem bist du die Verkehrssenatorin. Wer keine Lust auf den Job hat, kann kündigen.
Something that I mentioned to a Ukrainian colleague who asked for my take as someone who is coming from Cyprus is also the effect of time on a conflict.
A politician can make passionate speeches about how faits accomplis will never be accepted and that justice cannot be anything other but the return to the previous condition and so on, but at the end of the day most Greek Cypriots understand that almost a century later, you cannot start kicking people out of the houses they lived for three generations without becoming the bad guy, even if the grandfather stole that house in the aftermath of an illegal war. You can't punish the grandchild for the sins of the grandfather, you need to find a way to work with them.
So, for Ukraine, the moral of the story is that if it becomes a frozen conflict, every next attempt to settle it will require more compromises on humanitarian grounds. And so far, I think they get it, since they do not consider a ceasefire. But if they end up having to agree to a ceasefire, they should be very suspicious of politicians who tell them at there's no need to rush to pursue a settlement because "in the future we can negotiate something better". With every passing decade, fewer and fewer aspects will be up for negotiation at all.
How is it breaking new legal ground, if toll roads already exist and are legal and overnight stay tax (aka tourist tax) is too?
18 is good. In my previous neighbourhood I lived next to a school. A bunch of 14 year olds with smoke under the supervision of their teachers just outside the gates during recess.
There's no culture of smoking suppression in Germany. You'll see behaviours treated as normal that would trigger an emergency meeting elsewhere.
It's an exceptionally bad idea to get the state involved in picking which interpretations of a religion are going to be defended.
Cyprus pretty much has this kind of law, and the Chruch loves tormenting even dissenting Christian theologians or prominent people of faith who disagree with the Church with it, let alone critics who aren't part of the religion at all.
Gut. Je schneller die Partei spaltet, desto besser. Derzeit Die Linke ist nicht in der Lage, eine effektive Opposition zu sein, wenn sie innerlich so tief uneins ist.
To the best of my knowledge, the convention is based on history. In previous decades, neo-pronouns like xe were proposed to serve as gender-neutral alternatives to he and she, and since they were new coinages, they didn't have commonly known objective and possessive forms, so all three forms where listed.
The pattern was so established that it carried over to he, she and they even though their declined forms are commonly known.
I don't find automatic reposts ideal when I subscribe to communities, especially since there's an RSS feed so people can rely on that to receive updates.
I find it more worthwhile if another user shares a post intentionally, because they believe that particular post is relevant.
