TDI, TDI, [ETC]

The scale of Volkswagens emissions scandal seems to be spreading to its other brands (Audi, Seat, Škoda).

BMW and Bosch are also under investigation.

Greek elections

Greece is in addition to financial dependence, also loosing all the remaining autonomy.

Crucifixion of Greece

Greece has decided to stay in the Euro zone but rejected Troika's unreasonable demands by referendum.

Not much changed - Europe responded with resentment and new ultimatums after which Greece has practically lost power

to decide it's faith and has become victim to Europe's "accountants".

Refugees and Slovenia

Slovenia's system is embarrassingly inhumane towards immigrants. Instead of improving immigrant laws

and setting quotas Slovenia's politicians are being passive and taking a populist stance by quoting existing laws

and leaving the immigrant problems to other countries.

P.S.: Four months later even begins with the construction of the fence on the border made of barbed wire.

I hope I did not give them any ideas..

The way modern industry works

Every move is an expense which is why the industry is relying more and more on automatisation of work processes.

The slight delay can cause production to stop. Timing has to be perfect, there is no room for mistakes.

That is why robots are now prefered. They never have to take a lunch break.

Historical collision between the Slovenian public health system and politics

After some major problems at an intensive care department of Slovenia's biggest hospital the Minister of health's response is blunt.

Her style of helping hospitals is telling them to help themselves. Communication between health workers and the ministry

is at an all time low. The doctors are getting angry.

Note: In the rounded version of slovenian symbol Triglav (the three-headed mountain) gets a different, naughtier meaning

Cybercrime

Despite the increasing frequency of cybercrime, weak passwords are still widespread.

»123456« and »password« are still the most common by far.

Charlie Hebdo

The Charlie Hebdo massacre on 07/01/15 was widely seen as an attack on freedom of speech.

The increase of Sloevnian “tobacco tax” will most likely boost the black market and, consequently, bring less to the state.

RIP Jo Cox
British politician Jo Cox, who supported Britain staying in European Union, died in a street attack on Thursday, a brazen and startling assault in a country where attacks on politicians are extremely rare and the slaying of a lawmaker is without parallel in recent UK history.
