The Australian model is also interesting. After your degree you pay a certain percentage of your income to your university for a decade or so. But only if you earn more than the average person.
This means a university gets more money when their students gets good job.
I am a Linux user for over a decade but I have no idea what this discussion is about. Can someone give me a tldr? I install some software using apt and some using the store and never have any issues.
A friend joined them to get protection because he got beaten a lot. He left again after his first drug trafficking job was offered to him. (and fortunately he was allowed to leave because he didn’t know enough yet)
My schoolmates rented a club house for parties and the bikers wanted to do the security themselves. The have beaten people and kicked one drunken guy lying on the floor who argued too much with them. Completely unprofessional.
This was late 2000s in rural Germany.
Love is a chemical process, you can’t really choose who you fall in love with. There are all kind of relationships, not all are based on respect.
You don’t have to pretend anything, I know quite a few couples where one partner is an atheist and the other one is a believer.
That’s not an issue anymore. There is an Duolingo course, tons of Anki vocabulary decks, the app Drops supports Esperanto and the website lernu.net has a pretty good free course to learn Esperanto grammar.
I really like the idea of Globasa and Interslavic. I tried learning Toki Pona for one week, but did not stick to it for some reason, maybe some day.
I speak Esperanto and I am quite active in the movement and write for the Esperanto Wikipedia. In 2011 I had quite a cool trip to an Esperanto Youth Congress in Kijiv. But it’s hard to talk about it because most people see it as a failed project from the early 1900s, not as a modern subculture.
A good way to get an impression about real america as an outsider is to follow smaller hobbyist YouTubers from middle sized towns. One guy from Michigan I follow has a remarkable boring life that’s completely different from every American stereotype.
Niche communities that took years to built up and that I can’t find anywhere else. For example Esperanto speakers are quite active on Twitter. They also have their own Mastodon instance, but it is not the same. (I use both now)
Not every atheist is a humanist or even pro science, so they definitely exist. For example some regions in East Germany have a high Atheist rate and a very right wing population.
The best aspect of this trend is that we finally can buy devices without glass screens again. Plastic screens are so much more durable, especially if you are clumsy like I am. The prie is still to high though.
Haha true. But I only said it in the context of this picture.
Because it is a Unix system, so the Bash feels very similar and if you install homebrew you have a package manager with a very Linux like feel and a software catalog where most Linux command lines tool have a port for OS X. From a usability perspective OS X is Linux, but without permanent issues and reinstalls. (and I am saying this as a 12 year Linux User who only uses Macs for work)
Mac is Linux, but in a golden cage. Not sure if this exist as a picture.
Für die Langstrecke hole ich mir fast immer einen ID.3, manchmal auch einen Kona. Der Formfaktor vom ID.3 ist einfach gut, so viel Innenraum bei gleichzeitig so viel Wendigkeit gibt es sonst nirgends. Jetzt muss er nur noch günstiger und praktischer (Anhängelast und Dachlast) werden. Die Software ist mittlerweile einigermaßen benutzbar.
As long as ex Muslims are protesting like that I am fine with it. If white nationalists would do the same I would consider it at least extremely tasteless, maybe even a hate crime. Context matters.
Ich denke es würde schon enorm helfen mal die Elektro-Leichtfahrzeug-Klassen zu reformieren und dadurch so etwas ähnliches wie die Kei-Cars in Japan zu fördern. Eine eigene kleine Autoklasse mit günstigen Steuern und weniger Vorschriften was die Sicherheit angeht. Projekte wie der XBus (3 Personen und max 100 km/h) oder der Citroën Ami (2 Personen und max 45 km/h) würden schon enorm profitieren wenn in den Bus vier Personen sitzen dürften und der Ami 55 km/h fahren dürfte.
I would never put something in my brain that doesn’t at least have a public API documentation. If the company discontinued the product I want to be able to keep using it. Open Source software would be best.
