Let me guess… US? I can never understand why people dont lobby for higher minimum days off there

All the religious groups that emigrated to the US? This take has so many issues, but pilgrims, quakers and mormons are probably somewhere on the cult spectrum

But then reversing sites will be so much more annoying

I think people should in general put as little trust as possible in corporations. Ensuring your tools, language and platform are as free as possible is a good idea.

Just look at the problematic situation for VS Code extensions by Microsoft, which are non-free.

I’ll start with the German system. Here you are either automatically insured in one of the public insurances (there are many), which marginally differ in their cost (think single digit euro differences) and have to cover basically the same procedures. If one reaches a certain income level, being privately insured is possible.

If you are publicly insured, you wont see most costs, as these are directly handled between your insurer and the doctor/hospital. For some medications and procedures there are co-pays that are flat fees (5 Eur for Medications, …).

Access to specialists mostly need a referral from your family doctor.

In private insurance, often you yourself will be billed and you will need to hand this to your insurance company.

The good side is that in most common situations I have never needed to worry about cost in public insurance, wait times for referrals can be very long and understanding what you need to get certain care can be very difficult. Private insurance often has better payment schemes for providers and less artificial limits on number of patients or which doctor is able to provide services, so access to most care is faster and more widely available.

TIL what FDP means in french…

Can’t imagine potato salad with either vinegar or mayo tasting good hot

I think even similar trends in men, look at images of strong men 100 years ago. Professional bodybuilding has really shifted perceptions

Some foss games I can recommend are Battle for Wesnoth and Endless Sky.

They probably don’t want to get into any arguments regarding cost with a patient.

Most likely most of us would be in the yellow zone

Well, there necessarily need to also exist below average Harvard students. Its probably more of a shock to have the one thing you might have been proud of, being rather smart, be taken away once you get there and realize you are probably at most average and have to find a new identity

Excellent at being below average

Eigentlich ist transparenz ja besser für alle, denn dann der einzige der verliert ist der Chef der weniger gut verhandeln kann. Andererseits merkt man halt schon dass Neid doch sehr schnell im Spiel ist. Wenn jemand anderes mehr verdient hats mit einem nichts zu tun, dennoch fühlt man sich besser wenn alle mit runtergezogen werden.

Nur die Kaltmiete wohlgemerkt

For most linux users I’d say less security is a necessary evil. Security hardening is a tradeoff and I’d guess most people dont want their systems to be as locked down as ios or android. Or even modern MacOS, there are quite a lot of modifications that will require you to turn of System Integrity Protection, which blocks modifications of system files in normal use.

What do you propose to make games fair without cheating countermeasures?

Profit motives may have been a driver for reddits decisions, but we don’t need to pretend that foss doesn’t have its own share of unpopular or controversial decisions.

It’s about choice and foss makes it much easier to reject and do your own thing.

Browser based blocking seems very out of touch and anything short of GFW as in China won’t be very effective at actually achieving any blocking. Also enforcement client side will be impossible to control.

So not only is the law bad, but it will only make life more difficult for legitimate persons and organizations building browsers.
