Help someone with zero financial education start from nothing
I'm going to go against the grain of everyone here and told you to be careful with these kind of investment. Sorry if it's condescending, it's not my intention, there is just so many sad story of young people loosing it all trying to get rich quick, it's very sad.
Stock and ETF can make you loose your savings. They are taxed. The market are lopsided towards AI and is more and more volatile. Do not place all your savings on a single ETF or anything like that. Market ETF can help with diversifying without too much risk, but risk is a fundamental components of this world.
Before placing this money in any of that, please take the time and energy to understand. If you want to take a shortcut, use an LLM. Explain you situation like you did and ask how you should use your money. Understand finance and the markets, not just definition but how they work too, what are the risks, etc. What options are realistic with you salary and current saving ? If you want a fun side to start getting into finance, check Atrioc on YouTube, if you want a more grounded side, check Patrick Boyle, or The Plain Bagel. From these recommandations, you will find many other good source and avoid scammers. Be careful, there is always a phase when you learn about something where you feel very confident in your understanding, especially in the beginning. Remember that you are not a financial experts (and I'm not either).
Here are some tips, based on my experience in France, which could be completely different that Italy, even though we are neighbors and in the EU. Maybe, like in France, you could create a "life assurance" ("assurance vie") that is partially secured or assured (if they exist and work like in France). Also, if you are young, maybe there are saving accounts made for young people that are safe and good return (again, it exists in France, maybe you have something similar?)? These special saving accounts are not usually crazy but they fight the inflation and you cannot loose you money. Once you have something like six months of salary saved in one of these for emergency, then you can look for other placement. Again, if you have something equivalent to a life assurance in France, this is you best bet. Usually, you can split your portfolio between very safe placement (usually it's bonds) and more risky one. The idea is to have a more risky profile in the beginning and slowly move towards a safer profile as you get closer to your retirement. With those, the worst that can happen, and it can happen of course, is that it gets you 0% months after months. Realistically, it more likely to get bad by not beating the inflation. But experts traders at the bank will choose how to use you money and they should be better than that. Of course, it is a service and it will cost money that will eat at your gain, so be careful about that (and tax maybe?). Choose a bank that have good return (but remember that it does not guaranty they will stay at the advertised level) and fee that are acceptable. Also your profit are compounded. So it's not like betting on a stock for years and loosing all because you didn't sell before a crash. And the banks money should be assured (up to 100000€ in France) so even if there is a crash you can't loose your savings. This should be your retirement fund and the bulk of your savings.
If after that, you still have money this you can spare and you are willing to loose it all, again, start by understanding the finance world. Avoid Options or similar, as you can loose exponentially more than you placed. Leave that to the expert and the degenerate gamblers. This is what fuel Walt Street Bet stories. Don't be like that. Don't loan money to use in the market or really understand what is a margin call. Learn to accept the FOMO and keep your greed in check. Don't get swallowed by the hypes and the exceptional winner : they are the outlier. Most people and traders do not beat the market. Yes, you could be lucky but this is gambling at this point. Ideally you are looking to beat inflation and maybe have a little margin. It will not make you a millionaire. Check what happened with Game stop and the apes. Look at what happening in Korea and the ants. Learn from their mistakes.
I wish I could give you more information, but honestly I'm not an expert at all, and even expert can fuck up.
Sorry to rain on your parade, but staying grounded and realistic with you money will avoid ruining you for a stupid mistake or hubris. I understand the attractiveness of this world especially if you feel stuck and life is hard. There are so many people trying to scam you or that are just confidently giving shit advice (ex. "Infinite money glitch" of writing fake check, which is fraud...). You hear stories of people becoming millionaire overnight.
And be skeptical of what I said (maybe I wrong or missing something important) or anyone tell you. Do your research! Good luck and take care

Was having ~30 salaried NYPD personnel to escort one dude really a good use of budget?
So, given that 4 students is equal to 1 cop and that 1 CEO is more or less equal to 30 cop, We can say that a student is equal to 0.25 cop So a CEO is equal to 120 students live. As they have been around 70 victim to school shooting by year and around 300 school shooting for the last 3 years in the USA, we can deduct that the death of a CEO is around 2 year of school shooting combined (not taking into account the wounded) so around 600 school shooting.
Is my math correct?

What's going on with the Systemd age verification stuff?
They added a field and everyone is losing their minds because systemd has already a bad reputation for doing too much and being too powerful and also because everyone hate age verification so they don't want it in their free OS so it crystalize the hate. There was something about AI too if I recall. I don't want US law to impact international FOSS and I don't want any kind of identity or age verification inside my OS so I understand and share the rage. But this change was very much not a big or impactful thing. Please correct me if I'm wrong, I'm 70% confident on the issue.

Et si jlai.lu migrait sur PieFed ?
J'utilise Voyager et je viens de la grosse vague de migration de reddit avec les API payante. J'ai vu piefed mentionné par ci et par là mais je ne comprends pas ce que c'est comparé à Lemmy. J'ai lu le poste qui liste les différentes fonctionnalités mais je ne suis pas très clair sur l'impact de la migration, comment est ce que ça rentre dans le concept de fédération et activity pub, etc. Si vous migrer, je ne pourrai plus suivre les communautés Lemmy ?

New NTFS File-System Driver Submitted For Linux 7.1
Reply in thread
From the article:
"a better NTFS driver with greater performance and more features over what the NTFS3 driver or other NTFS driver alternatives provides"
"full write support, better stability compared to NTFS3 with passing more XFStests, new user-space utilities for FSCK and more, and making use of modern Linux kernel features like IOmap and folio integration."
No idea what most of these words mean 😅 Full write support is great!

I snap them not to cook them easily (I know how to cook full length spaghetti) but because I find them easier to eat at this size. Less knots, fork spins and slurping needed. Also yes, easier to cook since the fits and you don't need to supervise beyond the first mixing to avoid them gluing to each other. Better personal enjoyment overall.
I recommend you try it at least once. Cooking can be fun and creative, don't let dogma limit your experience :)

Very impressive! Do you have benchmark to test the reliability? A paper would be awesome to contribute to the science.

okay, time has come to ask. what does this big head in the image even mean
In case this is a serious question, it's the remain of Rei body after the event of the story. I don't think it means something other than serve as a reminders (along with all the blood) of the choice of the Shinji. His choice has a lot of meaning and is the main point of the author. Choose real connections with others, even though it will hurt you and create damages permanently.

Sorry but you are wrong. This is how I understood it too, but this is way weirder. Look into quantum eraser or polarization experiment. Information cause the wave collapse. You can use another set of polarization at 45° to activate the interference pattern again. It goes beyond physical perturbation and it has been demonstrated by experiment. I'm not a scientist and this is fairly new information to me so I can't explain it to you very clearly I'm sorry, but trust the science, things get weird at the quantum scale. Intuition doesn't work at this level.
