Why would any one spend one month of minimal wage in a phone, especially considering the trend to boycott made in US.

I am ready to believe that iPhone are great but no way I spend that much money for a phone

there isn’t actually that much to read, at the user level. Nowadays, on a “user friendly distribution” you should be able to launch firefox to browse lemmy, and open a pdf without much difficulties. Even printer aren’t anymore a nightmare to install.

Main stuff to know IMO.

• Linux distribution came with app store long before it was cool, for 99% of the case should just use-them, no need to worry (at first) about how to install an app which doesn’t come from an official repository

• While you can choose among many Desktop environment, just take the one coming with the distro you choose and get used to it.

• Terminal is a pretty neat tool once you know-it, but so is a Torque-wrench for your car. You do not have to know how to use-it to use a PC.

It’s surprising that it’s not standard in any country and that it’s not managed at the municipal level.

Where do I evacuate in case of natural disaster? Is there a dangerous factory which may explode/ release toxic products nearby? How high is the flood risk? What about forest fire

These info should be easy to get for everyone. Statistically speaking some citizen will (unfortunately) need it this year

I worked in 3 different European countries, in both academia and industry,

While not being common, it’s not that rare to take a glass of wine or beer when doing a real-restaurant for lunch break at work. At least for people working in office.

While the actress has some notoriety, huge part of the international trade relies on short term work visa. When Airbus builds a new factory in the US, or That a US factory chooses German industrial robots, you need to send people on short-term work visa to kickstart it.

Serious answer : I am not living there, have no idea how to compare, nor whether the court system works as a safeguard.

Sure maps and miniatures are fun but some systems don’t need them, some players are perfectly fine with the theatre of the mind play, or some small toys on a self drawn grid on sheet paper can work.

Some big streamers have done massive damage to she hobby by bringing the image that map and miniatures are necessary, and not at best a nice to have, at worst a distraction.

Sure I use sometimes a sketch on paper, but very rarely miniatures, and never accurate ones. Role-playing game isn’t about miniatures

For Rpg : let the player take the initiative and bring their plot to the table. If they preptge game for you, it’s les work as aGM (also no doodle scheduling, use fix dates)

For paragliding : if there is nobody on a flight site do not take off. Most likely you misunderstood something, and the site isn’t flyable. Sure if you re very experienced, do hike and fly or do fly on a week day on a small site, it may not apply, but you’re able to analyse by yourself

In many places, passing the test on an automatic would give you a licence restricted to automatic only (and the need for some more hours to learn how to drive a manual). While it’s not that easy to switch from manual to automatic, it’s definitely easier, so get a licence on a regular car first and if you have the opportunity to drive an automatic you’ll find out by yourself in a couple of hours how it works

Obligatory thought to cobol, which is stil the backbone of banking computers.
