People have been living in Montana for thousands of years. Ask them about immigrants.

The ones who've been living there for thousands of years, or rather the very few that are left, probably aren't too fond of it.

Or did you mean to write hundreds?

It'll get worse everywhere in the internet until we return to books and printed media again because we don't know what's fake and what's real

I'd be hyped anyway. Not because I want to buy one now, but because it's possible (and I might buy one in like a decade when they're affordable)

Rollable phones are such insanely sci-fi-y things

Cars should not be street legal. If I can get a ticket for not wearing my helmet, why do cars get a pass?

communist nations have been defeated by capitalist hegemony multiple times throughout history, mainly during the Cold War

You are aware of the many attempts in different countries to leave the USSR, right?

All of them were violently shut down, that's why the system was able to keep going, but without violence against their own population the USSR would've collapsed much earlier.

Wait they're supposed to be pronounced with J? Except JS obviously I pronounced them all with G

What are they expecting out of not voting? Do they not care if Trump or Harris win? I just really don't get why you wouldn't vote here.

There also were enough people who didn't vote for or against the NSDAP because they also disagreed with the other parties... It's not about voting for a party you agree with, it's about voting for the party with which you agree more / disagree less than with the other parties.

Random Austrian town with a couple hundred inhabitants, our Church is about 900 years old. So glad it didn't get bombed, lots of churches were destroyed through English bombs in ww2 since civilians were seeking shelter there (in response to Germany bombing English cities, also killing lots of civilians there).

I suppose you're wearing baggy clothes? Because I've never had this issue despite running and cycling a lot

The reason is that there's not an infinite amount of ressources. Integrating them properly works well as long as there are enough ressources, but when too many come in a too short timeframe it sadly does not work for all of them (also makes it much harder for them to get proficient at German since they can live in their own bubble and just talk in their native language).

(And we have many ressources, but we (Austria) took the most immigrants per capita of all central European countries, even significantly more than Germany which is known for having taken so many. We really are trying.)

What happened?

I hope so. I don't want Android to become the new Apple

There only are so many resources for them. Here in many European countries the main issue (I think) is that with the current numbers we fail to teach them all our language (it's simply not possible without having more language teachers available, and apart from needing those teachers that also needs more money). Without knowing the language their professional development is massively hindered, causing many to remain lower class, and causing disproportionately high crime rates among certain groups.

This leads to further problems: In the big cities there already are schools where people who speak the local language are a minority (for example in a primary school near me they have two classes for each grade (1-4) for children who can't speak German yet and one class for all grades together for German speaking children).

So guess what people do: They go to a district with less immigrants, while the districts with many immigrants keep getting more immigrants (since cost of living is low there and as pointed out earlier many struggle to leave lower class). We're re-creating segregation. This makes it even harder for those people to leave lower class, since they have no networking opportunities but only know others from lower class instead.

Even the left wing parties are now saying that we have to reduce immigration and instead integrate immigrants better.

Is that real

A religion of hoarding money. It doesn't get any more American than that.

LLM have greatly increased my coding speed: instead of writing everything myself I let AI write it and then only have to fix all the bugs

Often the answers are pretty good. But you never know if you got a good answer or a bad answer.

Truly awesome roommate

Hopefully that'll change, iirc the EU discussed about requiring physical buttons for the highest safety rating a few months ago. Idk how that turned out but if it passed there's hope

I love it when politicians in a democracy are doing things for the people.

Are these buttons in a room with us right now

Give me my buttons back
