The problem with the question is that somewhat inherently, “full desktop OSes and programs” are designed to run on screens so large they don’t fit in your pocket. So you kinda have to decide what you actually want.

Look up the PinePhone or Librem 5.

and anything where you’re being given instructions where you’re supposed to copy what the person in the video is doing, video works very well for that too

How exactly you create that table is up to you of course, I don’t know enough about your project setup.

not sure I understand the distinction between the “am I supposed to” and “maybe I could” parts?

You should create a table of all countries, you can just copy that from the above link. Then you reference that table with a foreign key in your users table.

OK, thanks, I was just not sure if this was intentional

Even when I view it on lemmy.ca (original instance) I still see 5 lemm.ee communities in the list.

A few of these point to lemm.ee, do you want to update those?

I think it has to be satire.

Agreed on this. We don’t know you (OP) well enough to answer this. For me it would be clear because I find law interesting (it isn’t what I studied but I considered it for a long time) but medicine completely uninteresting; if everyone were like me we would have no doctors, so it’s a good thing that’s not the case.

As a native speaker of German: lol

I mainly notice this with YouTube ads when in a foreign country. YouTube, you have my viewing history, you know I don’t watch videos in Italian or Hungarian because I don’t understand those languages well, so why are you advertising to me in those languages just because my IP geolocates to Italy or Hungary???

Well, entire books have been written about this topic, so it’s difficult to answer this in a Lemmy comment. The main division is between the pre-war years and the WW2 years. War is rarely popular, especially not total war. But a dictatorship can be popular if it can convince the public that it’s serving the interests of the people, and that was certainly the case in the 1930s in Germany.

Your OP mentions that “there was a drop in the quality of living for them”; I don’t think this is true. People (everywhere) overall tend to care more about economics and personal well-being than civil liberties, and for many ordinary German people, Hitler’s policies (before the war) were (or at least: were perceived as) beneficial in terms of personal well-being. We find it obvious in hindsight that passing laws such as “the executive branch gets to pass any law it likes including laws that violate the constitution” or “all parties except the NSDAP are hereby banned” are awful examples of authoritarianism, it was not obvious to the people living at the time who hadn’t been used to a parliamentary republic for a long time yet.

Here are a few links that may help your understanding:

Good. The Internet was always supposed to be an opportunity to expand the overton window. It’s incredible how much we’ve been allowing tech companies to be censors in the first place, anything that undoes this development is good.

During what time? The answer for 1934 is quite different from that for 1944.

FWIW we have [email protected] here too

You shouldn’t ask these kinds of questions under the assumption that anyone knows what you’re talking about.

The problem with park and ride is that the math doesn’t easily check out. Think about how much space around a railway station, say, 30 spots take up. Now you’ve built a sizable parking lot around a railway station but only gotten rid of 30 cars, which isn’t a lot.

Not sure what “mass deportations” means exactly. Depending on the exact question, while I’m not American, I do personally think immigration laws should be consistently and strictly enforced. Sovereign democratic countries have every right to pass laws restrict who is allowed in because that question can have long term consequences for the future of the country, and executive branches should not then turn a blind eye to known violations of such laws.

So I see no injustice in principle in deporting people (from any country in the world) when there is certainty that their presence is unlawful.

Of course from what I read in some cases recently in the US, there may not have been such certainty. I certainly think people are entitled to due process in such cases and should get a chance to provide evidence that their presence is lawful.

I am also in no way defending the cases where people have been deported or their immigration status revoked for exercising free speech rights, eg relating to Palestine. That really is authoritarian.

There are lots of options in between. You should be broadly aware of news, but do not need to be constantly exposed to them.

Maybe this article https://stallman.org/articles/dont-watch-covid-tv.html will help you, I am not sure whether I agree with all details of it, but the author is right about many other important things, so maybe it helps you.

Not in my school anyway. The languages taught here in Austria vary by school AFAIK, in my school everyone had to learn English, then depending on which branch we selected we could learn French, Italian, Spanish and/or Latin (but there was no path to combine French with Italian).

I looked it up and while it is possible for schools to choose other languages than these, Chinese doesn’t seem to be among them, so that could not be made a mandatory subject, probably could be taught as a non-graded elective though.

I’m around five to ten years older than you and get the same feeling sometimes. Not so much from TV shows or movies, but also from reading or watching real-life stories from that time. Like, when reading documents written pre-Internet that reference then-current events, how and how much did they know about those events? All just TV and newspapers? Nowadays I can easily find out what happened back then, but that was obviously not so much so at the time.

I do not remember a time without the Internet at all, but I do remember very well a time before mobile Internet, and I remember that around the time you were born, most people watched TV almost every day. I hardly ever watch TV nowadays, there is so much more entertainment online (e.g. YouTube).

As for looking up information, in the mid-to-late 2000s it was really mostly Wikipedia that built up the Internet as a useful resource for doing that. Obviously nowadays nearly all information that can be found there can be found on numerous other websites too; the Internet has now been built up, so Wikipedia is arguably a much less important website now than back then…
