Change white to black, or jews, or... and see if they "might still have a point".

It seems to me that the only relevant standards to compare it with are Dutch. Obviously the overall standard of living in NL (and most surrounding countries) is high, from a global perspective. It does not make the failure any less spectacu

Equality of outcome vs equality of opportunity... Many things have been said by other, better informed and more eloquent people than me. I noticed this however: “At least ten more years” And that makes me wonder if and when this wi

Ricky Gervais made a hilarious sitcom about the life as an extra. Aptly named "Extras", with a guest star every episode. Highly recommended, the Christmas special is one of the funniest things I've seen in a while. http:&#x2

I'm in the same boat. Quite scared of the seemingly endless stream of bad news. Switched to macos about 6 years ago, but it seems to have been a downhill ride.

I actually notice a lot more bugs when I have driven a longish stretch of Autobahn in Germany. My guess is that it is due to the higher speeds. Driving elsewhere is 100-130 kmph, on the autobahn it regularly is 180-240 kmph. Catches the lit

Cynical! :) But it is a fun read regardless, imo. I like technical challenges involving a lot of weirdness and most of all (arbitrary / unusual) restrictions.

Awesome! On a side note, if anybody finds themselves near Bonn (Germany), do yourself a favor and visit the Arithmeum. "The Arithmeum presents the history of mechanical calculating machines, as well as the computing of today, in an aes

As a Dutchie who just spent three years in Germany... You are perceived to be very closed, at least initially. Nice when you want to be left alone, going about your business. Not so nice when you are used to more interaction with strangers.

I have heard this line of reasoning a lot, also in Dutch politics, but I disagree with it. General elections are too broad to pick any issue and simply state that the votes on the parties that hold a certain position on that issue are repre

The touchbar is worse imo. The problem is the lack of tactile feedback, plus unwanted "keypresses" when your fingers wander over it. If they would have just placed the touchbar above the old row of ESC and Function keys, it could
