Not from the UK but in Germany we have the same issue where there is T-Mobile (best coverage), Vodafone (good coverage) and o2 (worst coverage) and there are simply some remote areas where anything but T-Mobile doesn’t have coverage. And th

In a meritocracy you need to have equal chances to show merit. I’m not American and I don’t give a damn about DEI. But talking about meritocracy in a country where schools get funding based on the property taxes of the school district is pa

No but that’s also not fascist. It’s extremist and violent and a misguided urge to fight fascism by destroying its symbols (a Tesla which might as well be an attempt by some upper middle class dad to buy a car that’s better for the environm

HM is distinctly more conservative than most other places online at least in my experience. Excluding the fascists safe spaces. At the moment, the right is what is pushing for authoritarianism in most western countries. And fascism is conse

I think that’s a really bad idea. I owe my career to YouTube and I think especially these days it’s much more useful for learning than it was back then. The whole internet moved to bite sized content but on YouTube you can find hour long vi

That’s a meme? I thought that’s just the 3 words drunk Germans yell on vacation. Kinda like how Dutch people like to yell Schweinehund at my car.

They are not unelected. They might be appointed but the parliament is elected and can block this. Go vote in EU elections. A parliament that is not full of conservatives can block this.

Paradise is maybe a bit much. I’m German and from close to the border. Not right across but close enough that I visit a lot and my city is overran by Dutch people every Christmas. On average as a tourist, the Netherlands is straight up just

Because it has no calories. Xylitol is nicer but gets metabolized. Erythritol is one of the few sweeteners that are reasonable to use at home (like, you can dose it like sugar unlike aspartame), tastes reasonable on its own (you don’t need

That’s essentially what Tonie boxes do. They have internal storage and NFC stickers on the figurines. The box is then caching on the SD card and playing from their based on the ID on the NFC chip. If you take the box offline, it can still p

This has the same vibes as BP talking about the co2 footprint and personal responsibility. Like… why are you defending the companies that took the hobby of millions of people (video games) and turned it into the equivalent of selling drugs

That’s exactly the problem. The discounts are there to make you buy larger packs and the process of items are designed to not fit neatly into the pack sizes. Guild Wars 2 doesn’t do that. 5$ is always 400 gems and items cost multiples of 10

Paris is especially bad though. They have good public transport but the traffic is insane and makes the city so much worse. Partially attributed to the Parisian driving style though. Or just French people in cities. Highways in France are v

The admin. I prefer the non Django stuff for everything. Pedantic alembic sqlalchemy and so on. But if you run something large, getting an admin panel literally for free is difficult to beat. You literally don’t need any admin functionality

With handmade wallets, if you can replace the stitching, they will outlive you. It’s really lining and stitching that gives up usually. That’s why hobbyists rarely line and the stitches are usually in a groove and people use waxed synthetic

That’s most other languages though. English has the disadvantage that it’s the global lingua Franca so everybody has an opinion. In German, Beijing is Pekin, Turkey is Türkei, Kyiv is Kiew, Czechia has always been Tschechien even when you s
