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.

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?

Because everything the EU and the rest of the world does is stupid. By adapting things from other countries would be akin to acknowledging that other countries can do some things better than the US. But this can’t be, since the US is Numbaaa 1! /s

Ask the French and Romanians how well Nuclear Fission Power Plants are going for them rn lol

Cos its a prefix regarding the unit

In the context of prices of cars it is indeed a rather small amount.

k is just a prefix, it is unit-independent

Because humans are creatures of habit, and as long as stuff works for them, even suboptimally, a lot of people aren’t inclined to change their habits, even if it might mean a change would improve their lives. As long as sth is “good enough”, there simply isn’t an incentive for change.

Also, since there isn’t a huge corporation behind Linux, there is literally no direct advertisement for it, so people who aren’t into tech simply never will get in touch with it.

I don’t have a Logitech Mouse, but I fixed the double-click problem for me by spraying 70% isopropanol alcohol under the mouse button

I agree that tobacco products should be heavily taxed, but should cigarettes be banned outright? I’m not sure banning is the right way to go, I mean just look at what the prohibition of alcohol back then did. A thriving, unregulated black market. People should be able to buy cigarettes, that way they can be sure of what it is they are smoking.

Just my opinion tho.
