The Menemen!

@yahoo.com is still somewhat popular among us old farts.

Having a large country doesn’t necessarily mean that your cities and towns have to spread like crazy. Russia is even larger but the cities are much more compact than US cities.

Wow, thx. The archive is gold. The artists journey from pretty terrible to really great comics in 12 years is quite astonishing.

I’d say here in Germany it is mostly a unpopularity contest.

Here we parents have to pay. But parents that cannot afford it can contact the authorities and get government funds for that without their children (and their friends) to ever learn about that.

No idea about the UK. But in Germany a comparable hospital stay (single bed room) would be up to a 1000€ per day afaik. If you are publicly insured in Germany, you’d still easily pay 150€ out of your own pocket (otherwise the rooms have 2-4 beds).

But I already learned in this thread that the costs in the US are far worse.

They are expensive in Europe as well, but most European countries socialize these costs.

In some crowded places they do it, so it doesn’t feel like a central station.

Don’t know about the police. I was comparing inside turkey, where there is the Police for urban areas and the Jandarma (Gendarmerie) for rural areas.

It is not really “higher” than police and it is not regular military. The gendarmerie in Turkey is responsible for policing outside cities, they are part of the military, but they are subordinate to the interior ministry during peace times (regular military answers to the defence ministry).

It is kinda crazy. Been using Linux since 2005 or 2006 on my desktop/notebook. I cannot believe we are almost mainstream now.

It is not a steam user percentage, but according to the site by user data from search engines. I doubt that the steam deck is extremely significant here.

I mean, there have been more than a dozen confirmed assassination attempts on Hitler (even suicide bomber attempts among them) and a few more unconfirmed possible attempts. The future did try their best (or just some brave people from the time itself).

I just downloaded the .deb and installed it without having to change anything.

But don’t get me started on my problems I had with that f…ing microsoft account to get onto our shared server. Somehow I am too dumb for that (same on the tablet).

No fried sausage at a German breakfast. That is England.

Sounds like I need to try me some German breakfast.

German breakfast is good, but it isn’t the greates breakfast on earth. But Italian breakfast is terrible. It is basically coffee and some sweet pastry.

Italy vs. Germany. The only occasion where Germany wins against Italy when it comes to food. But Turkey is where the real breakfast kings reside.

I honestly aggree. I arranged my shit quite well, started working late, worked till it’s late. It is how I like it, I get really productive at ~15:00 till ~19:00. Now my children go to school (therefore I have to get up early) and they banned working after 18:00 at my company (thanks labour union, I get what you wanted to do, but you screwed me). My productivity dropped so much it stresses me out.

Yeah, it is kubuntu for me as well if I am honest. I just wanted tk be edgy.

I use Ubuntu btw.

(I am a provocative guy.)
