Oh how I long for the day someone invents a car without a touchscreen.

I quite like regionalism that doesn't align with national borders. An example would be "limburgers" have a strong shared identity, even as parts of it lie in Belgium, and parts of it lie in the Netherlands.

Fundamentally it comes down to this question, I think: people tend to like to be around people that've shared a same background, is that ok? And to what degree?

I found "The Indian Cookery Course" by author Monisha Bharadwaj.

The synopsis sounds like what you're looking for.

I haven't read it nor heard about it before, just found it using a quick google, so can't comment on it's content I'm afraid.

might have to relocate their servers or domains rather than incur costs of compliance.

I'm wondering about that, as I fear it's insufficient. As long as (1) there could be UK users (using a VPN or not), and (2) there could be "adult" content, the law applies. At least, that's how I understand it?

Corporate tax is a tax on profit though (talking in generalities here obviously,

Thank for that remark, important distinction indeed.

Blows my mind people led around by the nose by the GOP still believe their rhetoric about this

Why so adversarial? I'm not even part of that game, on a totally different continent. Blows my mind that the so many people think politics is binary groupthink - sanctimonious indeed!

The observations I mentioned above are factual. Blows my mind that it's so easy to get angry at measurements.

The government is a funnel, not an endpoint. Keep following the money.

That's endless, wouldn't you agree? Especially considering all money is, is someone else's debt.

but where's the ad-hominem?

"Gotta love people like you who deliberately etc..."

There wasn't a need to rebut anything. Your comment confirmed what I asked from the start. Just in a very unpleasant, toxic, angry, way. They're the same thing under a different name.
