Without the presence of the USSR and Molotov-Ribbentrop, wouldn’t the Nazis have gone east first to secure the agrarian land and oil?

The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Global Tax Deal

Section 1. Applicability of the Global Tax Deal. The Secretary of the Treasury and the Permanent Representative of the United States to the OECD shall notify the OECD that any commitments made by the prior administration on behalf of the United States with respect to the Global Tax Deal have no force or effect within the United States absent an act by the Congress adopting the relevant provisions of the Global Tax Deal. The Secretary of the Treasury and the United States Trade Representative shall take all additional necessary steps within their authority to otherwise implement the findings of this memorandum.

I believe it’s referring to this OECD initiative in the works for a global minimum corporate tax, where OECD countries share information across borders to determine if a company is paying at least 15% tax on global income. If not, then the company would have to pay a top-up tax to reach 15%.

The link has an automatic redirect which takes you to a different URL with tracking parameters baked in. So you need to follow the redirect in order to remove the tracking parameters.

Here’s an example (possible tracking parameters redacted). Random video from my feed.

At least I think it works, let me know if you don’t get a video talking about the Jakarta Method.

I’m bad at committing to reading clubs but I’d follow what gets written here about it

πfs is a revolutionary new file system that, instead of wasting space storing your data on your hard drive, stores your data in π! You’ll never run out of space again - π holds every file that could possibly exist! They said 100% compression was impossible? You’re looking at it!

It’s ridiculous how slowly that border operates since 2022. There are like 3 border control booths to handle thousands of people per day. On Christmas Eve the lines apparently took like 12 hours. And since the bridge crossing is under renovation, there’s no vehicle traffic, so people stand in the cold or heat.

“Externalities” are a capitalism thing because it externalizes the environment and many other things for the sake of perpetuating an abstract economy based on capital accumulation. An economy based on rational use of resources wouldn’t externalize those things in the first place.

Activism related, this trailer for the Japanese movie Death By Hanging left a mark on me for its pacing and sense of urgency.
