Mint is definitely not overrated. It has done much for the community because they created a distro that is easy to understand if you switch to Linux, easy to maintain and mostly works out of the box. Also they don't use snap.

alias upgrade="sudo pacman -Syu && yay -Syu && sudo flatpak upgrade"

In Germany, it's against the law to not do a full stop at traffic signs. You will fail your driving test doing this and you'll definitely get pulled over when you're seen doing it.

I'm just gonna tell you what happens when pure capitalism would exist in a country.

There would be no taxes. That sounds alright, but listen: Everything is on a market. Healthcare, education, everything. There is competition for everything. That means companies will have to do stuff to win you as a customer. One big company in every industry sector will win and buy all the other companies that have gone bankrupt. Then, we have monopolies and the big companies can raise their prices however they want and control us in every way they want.

I have just the best username.

Infinity!

Ubuntu would be a very sour taste, many acids

Linux Mint offers the option to install it as a secondary operating system so if something doesn't work on Linux, you can just switch

Yes, but the game is the problem. That's why the ecological footprint is problematic, it pushes the responsibility towards individuals rather than changing laws.

Now we don't have to discuss facts because we can look them up but rather discuss whether things are good or bad or certain aspects of them. We don't have to discuss "is there climate change?" But we can discuss what to do

Debian is my hometown because back in, I guess 2014?, I had a computer that just sucked. It was like 1GB RAM, I think a single core CPU. Debian was like the only distro that actually installed. Ubuntu, Mint, etc. didn't even finish the installation

I also use a Pixel phone. Because only that is officially supported by grapheneOS

It's great because I guess your user agent is now Firefox, but actually Apple only allows one Browser engine

I can totally recommend AntennaPod as a Podcatcher.

Can I introduce you to Lynx?

A lot of people reduce Duolingo to their app, but they offer a big website on which you get a lot of explanations

I work at a shelter for young people (12-17yo) who can't live at home. They only stay temporarily with us, until there is another instance found.

I really like getting to meet a lot of people, lots of destinies. I work in a great team with a great boss. We have lots of free time in our work hours, because they're still youthsters, so they meet friends, meet family, etc.

We work shifts, which means sometimes I have to work on weekends, on holidays (not my vacations tho). Also sometimes the kids are not very easy. Sometimes they are the reason they can't stay at home because they are aggressive, they take drugs at 14yo, they are criminals.

Yes, that pure capitalism does not exist, that is correct. But that is what pure capitalism would look like and the question was why people don't like capitalism

Happens in germany too. A lot of people get a special salary at the end of the year, Christmas money if you will, and that also accounts into the yearly salary. If I earn 4K a month, I earn 48K a year, but if I get 100% christmas money, I earn 52K.

I feel like telling your boss what you did/ worked on makes you present. Just showing up, doing work and leaving doesn't help

At least in germany, Kindergarten is an institution of education and knowledge where kids are supposed to learn things and develop skills

Honestly, I don't even use Lynx

See if there are any organizations with a focus on civil protection and disaster control out there. Examples in Germany are THW and DRK. A lot of them are looking for volunteers who'll spend some of their free time training. You'll learn a lot and do something good.

I'm a german native so I guess I will be fine, thank you!

I just tried it (thank you BTW) and it says no App Store found when I try to install new languages, any idea?

Wait until you try out Eternity!

Try out Eternity first!

Snap is container Software. It's a program that runs software in an isolated area. Snaps is made by canonical, the company behind Ubuntu. And it's really hatred because, IIRC, it's very slow and not completely open source

Of course those commands only work for arch-based distros, but it is completely possible to adapt them to fedora or debian-based distros

Right now, I'm in a Position in social work where I work in a facility that shelters teenagers from the ages of 12-17 when they're abused at home or something else. I do this for a little more than a year after graduating with my bachelor's degree. I see myself in a more leading position in 5 years. Also, my wife and I will probably have kids by then.

Dexter Holland has a PhD in Microbiology

In Germany, driving with a manual is pretty standard. Although I did a special driving license (B197) which allows you to learn driving on a manual for 10 lessons and then switch to automatic for the rest of the course and the driving exam while still being allowed to drive a manual. It's pretty new tho. I did it because I really sucked at shifting. I now drive a manual and I'd say I'm okay with it although I'd really prefer an automatic.

Must have overread this, sorry

Weird. I attended a university in Germany and paid like 300€/semester and got a government student loan so I have student debts of like 10K because everything the government lend me more than that is a gift. That's how free education is working. If health insurance is mandated, this is working too.

That one's on me. Thanks!

That's weird. I was using iOS some time ago and I figured Bitwarden is way more smooth on iOS than android

It really depends on what you need. I use GymRoutine because I can track my training and that's all I need for that

Kinda sounds like germany

Despite my username, I ditched EndeavourOS a few days ago because an update broke it and installed fedora

Works fine with Fennec (F-Droid) and uBlock Origin
