😅 U.S. Army Soldiers Can't Bring Their Tesla Cybertrucks to Germany

｢ Why did the German government deny the Army's request? It turns out there are several reasons—and most of them relate to safety. According to the release, the regulator flagged the truck's sharp-edged body and massive curb weight as violations of passive safety rules designed to protect vulnerable road users like cyclists, pedestrians, and motorcyclists ｣

Germany's "economic miracle" has officially retired. Industrial production just cratered 4.3%, thanks to an 18.5% nosedive in its auto crown jewels, as tariffs and Chinese competition deliver a masterclass in deindustrialization.

The government's big recovery plan? Revising growth up to a blistering 0.2%. At this rate, "Made in Germany" will soon be a historical designation in a museum.

German infrastructure hit by drones, cybercrime, arson

There are now almost daily attacks on critical infrastructure. In the same week that drones were spotted over several European airports, a cyberattack against security software used by many of those same hubs, including Berlin Airport, left passengers and personnel scrambling.
