I am forced to use instagram, because that's all anyone my age uses to communicate. I'm in the process of setting up matrix bridge so that I can be done with that app.
This is not relevant, but I've been looking for a chair like this forever. Does anyone have any idea what it's called, or where I would find it?
Canada, specifically Alberta. I would say that it's better out east or on the coast, but housing over there is even worse than it is here.
I was recently on a group hike with a university club, and an Austrian exchange student kept talking about how good life in Austria is. He attends university for free, lives in a vibrant city with great public transit, and with affordable housing.
My city has unaffordable housing, shit transit, and an inept local government. We are staking our future on oil prices constantly going up. The last time oil prices dipped was catastrophic, with mass layoffs and unemployment in nearly every sector.
On top of this we are being hit extra hard by climate change. Last summer I couldn't go outside because of wildfire smoke, and this year is going to be even worse. Every year there's less and less water, to the point where year round drought seems like an inevitability. Our politicians are climate change deniers. The people who elect them couldn't care less, and cry about any measures taken to mitigate it's effects.
I don't want to be stuck paying $2000 a month for a studio apartment as the climate around me slowly degrades, and my politicians try their best to turn us into America.
A sizeable fraction of the students I've talked to about this has or is playing around with the idea of leaving. Austria is just the first country that came to mind, but I would take almost any EU country if the opportunity was offered.
As a CS student, yes absolutely. These people then complain about paper exams and when the code gets complex enough for the AI to make mistakes. I've seen a few people drop out in programming 2, and my web 1 class was decimated because we were doing more than leetcode exercises. It's a real problem that so many people are using it as a crutch.
In my experience the latency on Bluetooth mice and keyboards is so low that it doesn't matter. Most people who aren't playing in like the top 1% of their game should be fine.
Because car infrastructure is never delayed and always cheap right? What are you trying to do here?
I dispise tech-bro idea that every problem needs a new gadget to solve it. This issue was solved more than 100 years ago, the answer is more trains.
My main goal as a pirate is getting stuff for free, and I would reckon that the majority of pirates are the same.
Oh, I apologize I wasn't aware of the terms connotations.
What a great way to prostletize, I'm sure we'll get tons of people to try veganism by circle jerking about how moral we are.
If you really wanna stay private, wouldn't it be better to use Monaro? You won't have to worry about all the limitations of the physical world, and on top of that you'll get 10% off. It seems like the overall better option compared to mailing cash.
