Or they are worried that Intel will pull out due to risk of consumer boycott and want to push the deal through.

You can, or could, in Venezuela and Iran. Europe trades in oil all the time, but the petrodollar reigns supreme for international trade with oil producing nations. That’s not in question. The point is how much that will impact on international trade relations, now and in the future.
As currencies diversify, as power needs diversify and as stability and increased trade between all nations increases, the majority of trade may still remain in dollars, but that provides less power for America than historically. Oil is less important and the traded currency is also less important. This also improves with improved digital process of payments and faster shipping routes. It’s assumed that is part of the reason Russia values the arctic, for shipping routes.
There may be limited appetite for more ruoee trades now, but a trial balloon is always the first step and there may be more on an ad hoc basis. India may start to trade with Iran or Russia in increasing volume but wish to have rupee trade. A large customer like that may find that one supplier plays ball.
If the euro doesn’t really threaten US as a reserve currency, a BRICS one certainly won’t. As economies diversify and become more intersectional, as has happened since ww2, the currency fluctuations are less, with increased trade. Then currency used matters less and risk is lower for both sides when non us currency is used. So, I think dollar as a currency reserve will naturally reduce over time but it’s not disappearing any time soon.
Oh no.that’s disappointing.
The problem with blocking a community is if you block the one that eventually takes off, you miss out. I am just accepting it for now and assume it will sort itself out.
Another option would be to upvote one and downvote the other, to help speed the process up.
Lost two out of three and the headline is a positive? I know politics is about setting expectations to frame a loss as a win, but that’s a bit rich!
When it leads to layoffs it might affect us all.
I wonder if those firms will be held responsible for the costs their misinformation incurred. If they don’t stand by them, what’s the point in contracting them to do it. They may as well make the numbers up.
The eu won’t allow another Norway or Swiss model. It’s created too many headaches. Of the uk rejoins, they will commit to the euro and lose their CAP rebate, just like any other new entrant. It’ll probably only take 10 years before accession talks.
I loved aqua. Barbie girl is obviously relevant with the movie out, so it’s reminded me. However doctor Jones was also great for me at the time. I then went online and downloaded all their songs. It pretty much introduced me to mp3s. As an adult I still like it for the nostalgia and some of the lyrics are quite funny. Life in plastic, it’s fantastic or You can brush my hair, undress me everywhere.
However, O would not be breaking out the aqua for a party or dinner with friends.
I have a giant playlist of songs that are cheesy and fun but not intolerable to listen to for me, to play when my kids are playing. It’s got vheesey stuff like S club 7, which is probably more embarrassing than aqua, but don’t stop movin is amazing. It also has upside down by the a*teens. I pick songs that have words or concepts that help learn music appreciation or language skills.
Things like ROYGBIV by public service broadcasting teaches colours sits beside Gwen Stefani Hollaback girl teaching spelling.
And b*witched for the denim.
I just can’t answer that
If lemmy takes off, like Reddit, and has lots of content, google will adjust their algorithm to compensate and include it. Lemmy will likely focus on better SEO if it helps growth, but scaling and stability and usability are more important right now.
Guidelines are for little guys!
Yes, but look at bud light. Boycotts can be hugely damaging. If people start boycotting Intel, Dell HP and other suppliers will happily offer amd instead. Similarly, companies with policies of not buying from suppliers with slave labour or supporting genocide may decide Intel falls in that category now. They do it as a PR exercise but ultimately it’s consumer sentiment that drives it.
Intel will need to decide if the sweetener is worth the risk. From war interrupting supply. From boycotts. From brand damage.
