Rightfully delivered, perhaps. permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] roguetrick@kbin.social 13 points 2 years ago (2 children) I think that's just the conclusion of the state, not that the state gifted them. The Swiss Government isn't going to toot their own horn about giving 200k to an organization with a 3 billion operating budget that they already give around 200 million to every year. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [+] Puzzle_Sluts_4Ever@lemmy.world 17 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children) [removed by mod] permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] zik@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago The article says that they literally did investigate it though. permalink fedilink source parent [–] idoubledo@lemmy.sdf.org -1 points 2 years ago (1 child) https://youtu.be/A8MO7fkZc5o?si=jTQyGo5XPe931Wfy permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] PipedLinkBot@feddit.rocks [B] 1 point 2 years ago Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/A8MO7fkZc5o?si=jTQyGo5XPe931Wfy Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

Headline probably translated because it's not a clear way to say this. Also was surprised that gold bars are only 2K each, but I see the common size is 1 oz and they aren't very big.... permalink fedilink source parent
