SpontaneousCombustion@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Brazil rallies to defend Pix payment system from Trump’s attack - US President says Pix unfairly discriminates against american companiesEnglish4·9 days agoWow, I had to look that one up. Had never heard of it.
This looks promising. I’m in Ireland - we’re always the last to get these (too small a country!)
One to keep an eye on - thanks for that.
SpontaneousCombustion@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Brazil rallies to defend Pix payment system from Trump’s attack - US President says Pix unfairly discriminates against american companiesEnglish10·9 days agoI wish Europe had its own payment system (that’s widely accepted). There are a few, but tend to be only at a national level.
SpontaneousCombustion@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Trump's war on Parmigiano Reggiano25·14 days agoHe probably thinks Parmigiano Reggiano is a new extreme leftist Democratic candidate for mayor of NYC
Is this a new leaked chat between Hegseth and Trump? I’m confused!
SpontaneousCombustion@lemmy.worldtoAnti-Corporate Movement@lemmy.giftedmc.com•More than 90% of JPMorgan employees reported a decline in morale following RTOEnglish9·2 months agoThe RTO mandate is being made by management - people with usually 15+ years experience or more.
They’ve only known office life. It’s the security blanket.
The people most affected are these RTO mandates are people who have only known hybrid or WFH, people with <6 years work experience.
This is a culture clash. Mgmt can’t manage without seeing people actually working.
Numerous studies have shown no significant productivity improvement by working in the office.
SpontaneousCombustion@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Trump Says FEMA Phaseout to Begin After Hurricane Season511·2 months agoWhat’s needed is a hurricane to hit Mar a Largo and flatten it. I’d bet FEMA would be resurrected the next day.
SpontaneousCombustion@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•700 Marines ordered to assist in Los Angeles88·2 months agoCollectively, you voted for this fascist. As a non-USian, I’ll just grab my popcorn and watch the drama unfold. Very similar to watching the Brexit debacle here in Europe.
SpontaneousCombustion@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•700 Marines ordered to assist in Los Angeles563·2 months agoSo this is what freedom looks like? Where are all the 2nd Amendment fanboys when they’re needed? Probably sitting in the parents basement surfing the net for manga.
SpontaneousCombustion@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Japan says its $1 trillion in US Treasuries is among tools for trade talksEnglish3·3 months agoBut it’s even worse than that. The US has to rollover about 9 trillion of debt in 2025. Someone has to buy these bonds and if Japan or China are reluctant, it likely means higher interest rates to be offered in order to secure the sale.

This is good to know!
Signed up and paid for Deezer but it doesn’t work with my vpn (Mullvad) so I cancelled.
Now I’m in a similar situation as others in this thread - looking for a non-US music streaming, other than Spotify :-)
