Unchilled Tab-Water and filling bottles in the bathroom. Some drinking fountains are publicly available but more of a novelty and none usually not inside of buildings.
I don't know about others, but getting hydrated isn't an issue here. It's rarely significant above 30°C even in summer (and if max 2 months) and our water in my city is of such "high quality" they bottle and sell it. (Aqua di Monaco).
The most extreme untreated generational trauma in full swing and Netanjahu utilizes it like Putin. Just start a war when the public isn't on your side any more.
I don't blame Israel, I blame Netanjahu and his Oligarchy to steer the Media and the Public into a killing frenzy akin to Nazi Germany. Just listen to them... the enemy isn't human any more. (As are Palestinians to Israelis, or Jews to Nazis, or Ukrainians to Russians...)
It's like this wonderland here .. it feels like reddit From more than 10 years ago. The content is slower, better discussed and longer "in the pipeline".
And if you venture forth into their support pages you can take a tour through different Microsoft design phases of the last two decades. When everything looks Windows XP/Xbox360... you have gone too far.
financial burden = the quality of life I want to offer my child(ren) can't be reached, even compromising.
psychological damage = my ability to raise a healthy child is high but not high enough, I don't want to raise another drone like me whose self worth is coupled to their productivity in society.
ecological damage = another human
emotional damage = I would break to know my child will suffer. The rise of racism, climate change, war... I don't want to raise meat for the meat grinder.
Long story short, there are many points on the list, but at this stage I don't trust humanity with my offspring. Everything else could be sorted out.
I feel like it’s 2000 all over again on the Internet. The bloat has made pages borderline unusable, and using AdBlock or NoScript reverts any so-called "design progress" back to the good old HTML days.
Google is only semi-useful now, while pages like DuckDuckGo are starting to deliver results reminiscent of the old Yahoo or Lycos days.
It feels like my trusty, old-school Internet skills are helping me navigate this mess. The reemergence of usenet / groups feels inevitable.
This will isolate american banks on the long run. Who wants to make business with Leeman Brothers 2.0 (on an international scale)...
or did I miss something?
