Me being from germany I think it is just wild how voting day in the US can be just a random day of the week where you then also have to take a day off in order to vote, most likely. In germany election days are ALWAYS on a Sunday, so the vast majority of people don’t need to waste a vacation day.

Well yeah, scandinavian countries have the advantage of having decent governments, unlike germany lol

Literal NPCs lol. How can people be this financially illiterate? It’s like NOT consuming sth is an idea that never crosses their minds. Like they need to have everything, even if they don’t need it.

Lol wtf where do u live that it is affordable just 15-20 Minutes away from the city. In germany even an hour outside of metropolitan areas it is still expensive af. If you want affordable housing in germany u need to live in the middle of nowhere where u would need to commute like 2 hours by car or sth like that.

If everyone apparently hates it, why does everyone keep doing it? Just don’t tip.

I think it’s “got them”

They prolly took US-Americans as a standard lol

Public transit basically doesn’t exist in the US outside of metropolitan areas lol

The timing couldn’t be better, considering that YouTube doubled the amount of views required to become a YouTube partner for new Creators. If you can get monetized on BiliBili aas well amd earn money with it like you can with YouTube, new Creators might indeed choose BiliBili over YT now.

Still more durable than US paper houses lolol

And still Trump has a 33% approval rate. I mean who tf are those people? Are they all so fckn rich that they don’t care about increased medical costs? Or gas prices? Or inflation? Or stagnating economy? Those aren’t some abstract politics, those are things u feel in ur everyday live…

Lol that’s still insanely cheap compared to gas prices in germany lol. If I convert Euro to Dollar and Liter to Gallons, we have prices of over $9 per gallon lol

I think it’s both. Otherwise trash shipping companies like TEMU wouldn’t have become so incredibly popular. A lot of people are basically NPCs which like to mindlessly consume stuff. The cheaper the better.

It probably makes for a good look in your CV. You work there for a few years, and then you can apply anywhere else with better chances, I guess.

Well, you could see the distance between the bed and the desk as a commute

I thought fat does swim?

Well, the IT job market can change very quickly, so it is very difficult to predict what the job market will look like when you enter it in around 6 years (I assume that’s how long it will also take in the US to get a Bachelor + Master?). It could be that in 6 years the AI bubble has popped and dumb managers will realize that AI can’t replace every Software Developer.

I’d say go ahead and study CS, and if you can’t find a job as a Software Developer, you can then look in neighboring IT fields, such as System Administrator, where you (for example) have to administrate Linux servers, and since you say you already have experience with this, it should give you an advantage in applications.

That jacket button looks like a nipple in this photograph lol

And MAGAts will somehow turn this into something good. But whereas they would have completely flipped out when gas prices would have risen just one cent under Biden lol.

I thought we are all communists here on Lemmy? So the concept of ownership doesn’t exist and everything belongs to everyone?
