Number of features that I need? Google Sheets wins.
As I use Excel at work, I'd be happy if you prove me wrong here. Just yesterday I needed to do a simple search/replace with regular expressions. My solution was to copy the data to Google Sheets.
I don't know about Germany, but in Denmark (their neighbor to the north), you ask the employee for a statement from the doctor. The employer pays the doctors fee, and there are strict rules about when they can even ask for it.
I believe scientific studies say it's somewhere around half of each.
The reason you don't see that, is because it's considered socially unacceptable to get socially drained, so we learn to hide it, usually from very young.
I think we are somewhat on the same page here. What matters isn't the word you use, it's the intention behind, which is hopefully obvious from context.
When I get called a nerd, my response goes anywhere between being proud and being insulted depending on context. The word itself has no emotion by itself.
Shouldn't it be the same with many of these words that some people consider racist?
I know plenty of people like what you are describing (always near at least one phone), but they are still impossible to reach quickly. Even when they expect a call, they can have their phone in Do Not Disturb mode. Or they ran out of battery, and didn't think to turn it on after plugging it in. Most of the time I have no idea what the issue is.
Also, he might live in an area with few options. Specially on short notice. Maybe the closest alternative with a somewhat similar style is far away, so even if you can get a reservation , not everybody will be able to get there before dinner time.
Basically, when he says it's hard for him, maybe just trust that he knows his life better than you do.
unless you pay for a "service" that lets them put it by the curb or your garage or designated package box.
Here it's cheaper to get it delivered to a pick-up place near my home. I'll just pick it up on the way home from work, almost as easy as getting stuff from my own mailbox.
The point is they don't have to proof if a piece of random data is indeed an encrypted blob.
But they do need to suspect it.
If they find an encrypted blob, ask for the decryption key, they decrypt the data and analyse the decrypted data, then they may not suspect that a different decryption key will reveal a different set of data.
I spent a few minutes researching this, and I still have no idea what the problem is. Or any motivation to keep researching.
Honestly, I might be part of the problem. I'm a white guy, and there are basically no black people in my life. I don't see any in the streets, at work, at home or here. Especially here, I have no idea who anyone is.
Basically, I have no reason to get involved. However, I don't want to be part of the problem. So if you spoonfeed me information I can use to make life better for "the blackness" (I'm very confused about the terminology), I will happily read it and try to remember it.
So don't just tell me the solution, none of the TLDR makes any sense to me. Spend a few words on the problem.
As far as I can tell, there's basically two kinds of people:
1 - People who just don't care about other people in the Fediverse. They will not read any of this, there's nothing you can write here that will change anything for them.
2 - People who are trying to be nice, but don't always succeed. They will listen to advice, but nothing will change by telling them to be nice, be less racist, or to listen to people even if they are black. That's what they are already trying to do.
Are you talking specifically about Canadian police? Because here in Denmark, the police make a big effort to prevent crime. As far as I know, it works pretty well.
Of course not all possible efforts to prevent crime can be done by the police, a lot of it is up to the government.
The doctor puts my prescription in the system. It's available in any pharmacy immediately. (Sometimes the doctor makes a note to the backoffice, which will then put it in the system. On a busy day this can take hours.)
I can then go to any pharmacy without pre arranging anything. At the register I say what I want (or if I'm not sure they can check my prescriptions), and a few seconds later I get it, I pay, I leave. I don't think I've ever waited more than a minute.
In some pharmacies there's a robot that will find the medicine while I continue the conversation and pay, making it zero waiting time.
I'm not sure exactly what "fill it" means to you. Here it means grab a box or bottle from the stock, stick a label on it and hand it over. The label has my name and a note from the doctor about its usage.
Number of features that is has? Sure.
