The only thing that carried me through rough times was a hobby where I regularly meet a group of people for sports. Then you live so you can go there again the next week.

Unrelated but does Eternity correctly support Links now? (to comments / threads)

This drove me to Jerboa, but I prefer Eternity’s UI so I’d be pleased to go back if that’s fixed.

Which phone OS are you using?

Usually none, sometimes classical music, Viennese Classic especially

I hope so. I don’t want Android to become the new Apple

There only are so many resources for them. Here in many European countries the main issue (I think) is that with the current numbers we fail to teach them all our language (it’s simply not possible without having more language teachers available, and apart from needing those teachers that also needs more money). Without knowing the language their professional development is massively hindered, causing many to remain lower class, and causing disproportionately high crime rates among certain groups.

This leads to further problems: In the big cities there already are schools where people who speak the local language are a minority (for example in a primary school near me they have two classes for each grade (1-4) for children who can’t speak German yet and one class for all grades together for German speaking children).

So guess what people do: They go to a district with less immigrants, while the districts with many immigrants keep getting more immigrants (since cost of living is low there and as pointed out earlier many struggle to leave lower class). We’re re-creating segregation. This makes it even harder for those people to leave lower class, since they have no networking opportunities but only know others from lower class instead.

Even the left wing parties are now saying that we have to reduce immigration and instead integrate immigrants better.

Is that real

Often the answers are pretty good. But you never know if you got a good answer or a bad answer.

Are these buttons in a room with us right now

Give me my buttons back

So is the conclusion from that that LGBTQ people would rather vote for Trump (directly, or indirectly by voting for some small candidate or not voting)? I don’t get why this would be a reason for them to not support the democrats

While you’d generally believe that to be true it can be hard for people with no knowledge who aren’t the brightest to see through statements like “doctors just are part of the wealthy smart people society who aim to keep us down”.

Never underestimate human stupidity.

But learning to critically question statements and judging them yourself (which requires some knowledge, for example you can’t question anti-vaxxers when you don’t know anything about how vaccines work) instead of simply believing them is extremely important in a democracy.

The only thing that used to be better was more physical buttons. And it looks like the EU will be pushing for that to return (requiring more physical buttons for the highest security rating).

“Führerkult” - a cult around the “leader” (“Duce”, “Führer”, whatever) is one of the core principles of fascism

As someone who tried macOS and really didn’t like it I still have to say that you’re overreacting. It is worth using if you want everything to look good while never ever configuring anything yourself (many things can’t be changed), and if you want all your devices to work together without any setup (requires buying all devices from Apple).

It can’t do anything that other OS can’t. But it does many things out of the box.

I’m pretty sure it’s from different perspectives since it’s wrapping around the arm

I’ve tried macOS, didn’t like it at all, went back to windows, will probably switch to Linux soon™ (I’m just worried about my fancy Nvidia graphics card becoming worse)

If windows really starts screenshotting everything I do I’ll instantly switch.

How did you come to the conclusion that Ukraine is affiliated with national socialism?

I thought this was in the shitposting sublemmy

German Glocke = English bell = made out of metal

Literally Glockenspiel = bell game
