VoxAliorum@lemmy.mlto World News@lemmy.ml•Iran and nuclear watchdog sign agreement seeking path to restart cooperation8·4 days agoIran could use this to freeze the conflict while never intending to follow through. Having time to come up with a real plan.
VoxAliorum@lemmy.mlto World News@lemmy.ml•Trump imposes 50% tariff on India as punishment for buying Russian oil51·18 days agoSounds good, but looks desperate regarding Epstine.
VoxAliorum@lemmy.mlto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Are you a feminist? (If so why, if not why not?)1·30 days agoI disagree. I don’t think people started misusing feminism because they didn’t know what it means.
VoxAliorum@lemmy.mlto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Are you a feminist? (If so why, if not why not?)62·30 days agoFeminism as often defined:
the belief that women should be allowed the same rights, power, and opportunities as men and be treated in the same way, or the set of activities intended to achieve this state. Is something I agree with support.
I wouldn’t call myself a feminist because I think the word is basically broken. Too many people use it in a different way than this definition. Too many people think that if you are a feminist you have to agree with other things or you are not a feminist. I would describe myself as a humanist; I think.
hair sieve
well… not sure about yours but ours definitely was.
Well… my former roommate put the hair sieve from the shower into the full dishwasher. Like wtf. Sterilised anything by liquid fire afterwards.
VoxAliorum@lemmy.mlto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•what's something you believe strongly but have little knowledge about3·2 months agoI don’t know how exactly it should be implemented but Germany needs a serious inheritance tax. Tbh. due to not having it in the past a wealth tax might be advised as well.
I want to live in a world where a worker** totally can earn 100x what another worker earns, but not in a world where you earn 100x because of daddy’s money. For that we have to get rid of insane inheritance. I also think this rectifies criminal generational wealth like the church or old noble families.
Let’s be honest: Life is good in Germany so only few people actually complain about that, but it is a * unfair system and I can understand everyone who doesn’t want to play in it.
Somehow I also had Waluigi in my head when I first saw him.
VoxAliorum@lemmy.mlto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What did a teacher do that earned your respect?1·2 months agoI hated languages in school because besides grammar and word mistakes, grading always felt arbitrary. However, that teacher recognized that I struggled, gave me a generalized template and said “If you do it like that, you get a good grade”. I did it like that and got a good grade (we have 1 (perfect) - 6 (trash) and I improved from 4- to 2+ which is quite a big leap). So yea, that was the first time that I perceived that subject and a teacher of that subject as something real and not bs.
VoxAliorum@lemmy.mlto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•We all know grammar Nazis. What incorrect grammar are you completely in defence of?14·2 months agoIt’s not a grammar mistake per se, but I feel like sharing it and it is close enough so here we go.
As a non-native English speaker: How can you have mop
band vacuum the floor but not broom the room?! I know it doesn’t exist, but I don’t care. If we have to phrase it as a grammar mistake: I use verbalisations where they are uncommon.
VoxAliorum@lemmy.mlto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•In your opinion, what is the correct way to handle a partner who insists they are fat, even though you know that they're objectively not overweight?2·2 months agoDo what it takes to get them to a doctor and let them handle it. For example: "I want to support you, but I am no expert. Let’s see a nutrition specialist to see what the best course of action is. Personally, I think you are not too fat, but if there is something you want to change, let’s do it right.
VoxAliorum@lemmy.mlto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Lemmy, what's the meaning, or point if you prefer, of life? I know 42, but I'm serious. Nothing lasts, everything is meaningless - are we just amusing ourselves until death?5·2 months agoThat’s the beauty. Given that there is no goal, you are able to define your own.
VoxAliorum@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.ml•Proposal to Sell Gaza Land Via Crypto Tokens Met With Backlash3·2 months agoThe times we live in are wild. Predicted that, Aldous?
France in general does a lot of things right. Their whole open source movement is amazing! Just take a look at https://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome and their tools like https://cryptpad.fr/
And politically as well though I can’t pinpoint it to an exact article. Just the general vibe I got from them and the decisions I saw.
