‘You’re Telling Me in 2023, You Still Have a ’Droid?’ Why Teens Hate Android Phones
This has to be a US thing, in Switzerland there is not a single person I communicate with using iMessage. It’s WhatsApp or Signal.

STOP DOING ASYNC
Reply in thread
If you are waiting for IO, why would you block your current thread and not let it do something else? Async does not only exist in JS.

Paradox how could you
There is a vast difference to other games. The core is fine, mechanics work perfectly, the game looks great, it has just bad performance. That can be fixed.

Venezuela's government accuses US of attacking civilian, military installations in multiple states
This is it, if the western world and the US congress does not respond appropriately this shows Trump he can do whatever he wants. Greenland will be next, nothing will happen either. This is what the Nazis did as well, fuck around and see what happens. And nothing happened for quite a bit until it was nearly to late.

An illegally parked car hindered the firefighters' intervention. The team passed the hose through the inside of the car.
Of course they can be bent. Also how fucking slow are they working. We measure this in seconds, not minutes. The tank in the engine is limited and ideally you try to run multiple hoses at once. And sneakers and shorts? Firefighters in the US are weird.

'Glorifying Terrorism' Charges - France Sentences Pro-Palestine Activist to Three Years
In 2021, France adopted the infamous definition of antisemitism proposed by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA), which deems criticism of Israel and Zionism and comparing Israel’s practices to those of the Nazis forms of antisemitism
How does that make any sense?

Spain ends talks with US for F-35 fighter jets and renews interest in European alternatives
At least some good news, back home in Switzerland our government is cowering before Trump, reassuring him that we will buy the F-35 even though they just put a flat 39% tariff on us...they even flew to Washington to improve our offer, whatever that means, fucking cowards.

Canada Will Legalize Medically Assisted Dying For People Addicted to Drugs
Why is there always such a shitshow when it comes to these laws? In Switzerland we have EXIT which is also assisted suicide. Nobody cares that it exists, it is just a reasonable system.

…but the white moderate, who is more devoted to ‘order’ than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: ‘I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action‘ …

That's why back home we can not legally be compensated for donating blood or plasma. But you usually get some Sandwich and Coffee or something else to drink afterwards, which is nice.

In Switzerland there is an app called Alertswiss which gets published by the government. They use it for critical alerts and you can also use it to see open warnings and where in the country there might be stuff happening.
Just do the same @California

Swiss government rejects proposed super-rich inheritance tax
Reply in thread
Because it made us wealthy? And because Switzerland has strong social security and failing in that free market is unpleasent but you will not go bankrupt or become homless.
