First of all you’ll be really happy with all those babies when you turn 80 and society hasn’t fallen because the average age is 70.

Second, when childcare is free more people can join the workforce, this increases taxes and productivity.

But maybe the most important it will make society more equal. When you’re poor working almost doesn’t make sense if you have to spend 80% of your salary on childcare. So more people don’t work, these people are usually women. That really doesn’t help with an equal society, because a big group can’t really work so they can’t really climb any ladders.

Yeah it’s like saying if you support free software, you support companies to not pay taxes or companies putting nicotine in products.

Yeah same I was inflating all the bicycle tires of my family. On most of the tires it says inflate to x bar, but my electric pump only knows psi.

Maybe but that would also mean people from let’s say Poland can live and work in the UK right? I thought that was one of the bigger Brexit points.

When is that going to happen? I would be very happy to have you back in the club 😊

I’m not sure, maybe Lemmy will never really become mainstream

No but I am looking for a new laptop and this time I’ll definitely spent more time checking Linux compatibility.

My previous thinkpad worked fine out of the box, but my current laptop is an HP Omen, that I mostly selected for the price to performance ratio. But I immediately learned that Linux compatibility sucked. Like not being able to boot an Ubuntu usb drive (without messing with the boot parameters).

It reminds me of this banger https://youtu.be/3_SFb4gNWHc

I think it was 17:18 when the door lock finally opened. The very first time estimate said it should be ready at 16:10. So it was definitely a big lie.

Very good reply, just one thing to add, it’s both a washer and dryer, we did a full wash dry cycle.

With the way the world is going, maybe it’s better to keep the military around for a while.

It’s a washer and dryer, so it did both

At home I hang most of the clothes, but we where at a short trip and we had some wet towels and swimgear, so de decided to just do one full laundry with most of our wet and dirty clothes. The first duration before I even started the cycle was that it should be done at about 16:10 it was actually done more than an hour later.

Yeah I should have known, started the thing at 12:26 (actually know this because I called my wife to check if we had 3 hours and 38 minutes before we needed to go), its 17:18 and I just got the door open…

I think they are part of Africa now

That was actually my point, you don’t go for money because you want money. You go for money because you want things money can get you, house, car, safety, status, etc (different for everyone). In this case money can’t even get you what you really want, so it’s a useless tool.

Red, that would give me 30+ years of life. I would also try to get older healthier.

Money is just a tool to get the things we want anyway.

I also don’t like that he sometimes interrupts his guest or just starts talking about something about himself instead of asking follow-up questions.

Or a website where they post stuff like that? Like the schools website? My son’s school has it’s own app where they post updates, photos, etc. Not a huge fan of another app, but at least it’s not public and I’m not forced to use Facebook or Twitter.
