Same here, and I have many problems with the web interface too. And sometimes when I add an app to my Nextcloud user, the whole instance just stops working and I wasn't able to find a way to recover.

Because I've never seen a good one, and even if they exist, there's no guarantee that a particular child will have a good teacher. Half of them are below average, and we both know how incredibly bad is the average.

Where have you seen a teacher adapt to a student? I have seen them screaming when kids don't do what the teacher expects (but doesn't properly explain). A computer would never do that.

Absolutely disagree. Kids do that when they're forced to it. Anybody would do that. Kids who are interested in what they're learning about won't do that. Perhaps we shouldn't expect people (kids or not) to do so much irr

No, but it wasn't uncommon to have pro-Putin/pro-Soviet Russians tell you this phrase on the street (I live in CZ) - as an insult/threat, usually the next sentence was something like "Czechia belongs to us too and we wil

In all post-Soviet countries they will tell you "Nas Mnogo" (lit. "there's a lot of us") is THE Russian strategy. It used to sound scary when we thought manpower is everything. Today, with drones and things like Jav

Lol, "simpler and fairer world"? I want some of what these people are smoking. I'm a VAT payer and it's at minimum 15-20 incredibly complicated accounting forms per year, with harsh penalties for mistakes and missed dead

It's very funny to speak about privacy while the EU is pushing literal Chat Control at the same time. I'd much rather have Big Tech and the money it brings home - nobody is forced to use their free services, I'm simply avoi

That's not true, there's a rather large minimum until you need to think about VAT. 100k EUR/year where I live.

Yeah lol, 24? With the size of German economy it should be 240 or 2400, definitely not 24. (if it was irony then I'm sorry I didn't recognize it)

This thread (and it being upvoted to the top) is a prime example of why there isn't any Big Tech in EU - because we slam down even fun little startups with this legalese bullshit as soon as they appear.

Yes indeed, taxes are annual - and I told you clearly that I have years (usually less than one) when I can work well followed by years (usually multiple) when I can't work at all. E.g. in 2017 I was able to work 7 months and then nothi

And if this passes, we will have plenty of examples from the EU too. Here it was not as easy to crack down on people because we take privacy very seriously, but it will happen as soon as the state gets the power to do it. See for example ho

Why does it have to be a somebody? It's almost every politician since the invention of privacy. It's not a cabal, they just have common goals. Edit: can't reply. The endgame is control over the population - taxing them, impri

No stable coin yet, the legislation is completely new so nobody has caught on yet - but it'd be weird if nobody did. The country is Czech Republic. I really don't think anybody here would dance or sing. The politicians here are po

Actually, states are more than happy to falsely accuse innocent people, especially if it makes companies hand over their chat logs etc.

How is it any different from a bank? (I live in a country with well done digital currency regulation that is comparable to what banks have to do - let's not limit this to the case of Tether only).

Yes, your post is malicious. The peace you speak about is a Russian propaganda lie. Russian tanks were here - hundreds of kilometers away from their border - until the fall of the Soviet Union. We have peace now, only thanks to NATO.

Even the studies that assume a lot of people are lying to stay safe are saying at least 60% of Russians support the war and Putin.

The incredible machinery required to collect the current amount of taxes suggests so. Each percentage point requires increasingly more complex tax administration, and with each point more people will try hard to evade it. https://
