Still using Discord and YouTube fully and reading some things on Reddit and Twitter. Not posting ob the latter two anymore though.

Decent 90s action schlock title.

I think we had the basics covered early. Too early maybe. I remember holding a presentation in grade school about AIDS, but that was half made by my grandma and I barely understood what I was reading from my papers.

Praise the Stör

Yeah, this is one of the best parts of the fediverse. It’s not just another plattform like Reddit. It’s a bunch of Plattforms of various services, even Lemmy is just hundreds of small Reddits that connect to each other. Meaning we are not beholden to one person like on Reddit to participate in the fediverse.

To whom it may concern

Yeah, the general public knows about Reddit, most people have no idea what the fediverse or lemmy are.

Yeah, I use the bath when I am sick to relax. But normally? Just shower.

I shower every night before going to sleep. I like being clean in bed.

Bavaria is more like Texas and Saxony is Florida, the crazy swamp part, not the rich.

Chill.

The day has barely begun. Gotta go to the morning stoning first. Pushy people like you make us regular baby brain bashers look like weirdos.

There is literally tens of millions of people dying every year, so it’s not unlikely that over the years thousands of comments gather with stories where a song meant something to one of the millions of dead. It just feels a lot compared to YouTube videos.

Most of the time I’ve seen it, it seems to be more of a parasocial relationship. Even documentary channels have often one or more persons associated with the content which people feel close to. Like, you’re posting somewhere where the creator may actually read it. People probably don’t expect a creator to look into the comment section on Reddit or under a news article. But, it’s more likely in their own channel, many content creators encourage that feeling by actually mentioning reading the comments and sometimes even replying in their comment section.

That’s why comments on many youtube videos are more personal (good and bad), because it’s a place where they can direct feedback semi-directly to the creator.

Oh, for sure. The exception to family businesses is probably both in Germany and the US rooted in the time the laws were made, where it would’ve been devastating to not allow families to include their children in the family business. And ultimately, there are probably plenty of laws in both countries that would check in on abuse.

In Germany children are obligated to help their parents in the household as long as they live with them. This extends to family business. By law the children have no right to be compensated, since they are already compensated by the parents feeding and housing them. Of course, this doesn’t mean parents can just slave their children, there are plenty of health and security laws and what’s generally reasonable for a child of varous ages to do.

So no family sweat shop. but the bottom line is: in Germany kids are obligated to help out the household they live with.

And I mean, I would argue that household chores can be viewed as education. After all, at some point the children have to care for their own household and as such are good to learn routine cleaning, how to do dishes, how to shop and cook, how to crawl into a tiny tunnel to mine for gold and how to keep the garden tidy.

There are some people who are adults who are kinda clueless about some basic things and I think it would’ve been a good part of education to have them make household chores from childhood onwards.

Of course, this needs to be reasonable and age appropriate. So, I agree with the commercial aspect of it.

It actually helped me from learning the 5 Ws in kindergarten.

Where? What? How many (“Wie viele” in German)? What? Wait.

I don’t have to make a call often, but all the more important is that I have that in the back of my head. I go through the first four points and then I shut up to for further questions, instructions or just a “okay, got that, sending someone”.

I think that is something that everybody should learn early everywhere. Everyone can only benefit from people making short, focused emergency calls.

I am a really quick reader compared to most people. Doesn’t sound that amazing and it’s certainly not unique, but it comes really handy. Always helped me with exams, as I got some precious minutes more to actually work instead of reading. I can go through books and articles really fast. Retention is not amazing, I’d say it’s about the same as when most people read in their normal speed.

I really envy the people that can read quickly and retain everything. But I am also content with being relatively quick.
