Where I live in germany there is a saying: "Anderswo is auch scheiße". Literally translates to "Other places are also shit". So I'm currently not considering moving into another country. Though I often ask myself, what I would do if germany goes the nazi route again. The AfD is real scum.

That is an important part of the plot in the german book Qualityland. Really hilarious

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cYCRwcz2aV8 is really crazy, that americans seem to think, that you need to be able to get out of everything by yourself. In the line of: If something bad happens to you and you are not able to get out by yourself, then it is your own fault and nobody should help you. Though this is already often talked about.

Another scary thing is how little you like your government (being it of the State or federal). It seems Americans don't want the government to do much, not seeing at as a tool to handle modern problems. Back when I was at Reddit I read a thread about why americans opposed state run free healthcare for all. One user wrote something like "Don't see, why we should solve the price issue by letting the state (so taypayer) pay". The user just ignored the immense power, that a government of a big and wealthy nation has. It can easily press pharma companies to set prices low enough, without stiffling research and innovation. But that would be against freedom, I guess? Really difficult to understand.

Though changing the american system is a big task. Months ago I've seen a good video on youtube on that topic by TypeAston. I think its this one Would Universal Healthcare Really Work in the U.S.?

Maybe Miaou meant the gender gap in medicine. The big difference in studies looking at the medical details (for example of drugs) in female bodies vs in male bodies

Noch ein paar Gebärmutterbetten für die deutschen Bauern, Cyrill!

Ah, with the "Sonderkommission Wand und Farbe" (eng. Special comission Wall and color), meaning the police troops covering the grafiti with wall color by themselves

Especially in social issues and politics there is no unbiased. In science you can often (not always) rely on evidence, which gets a lot of its own bias (yes, scientific papers have biases) removed by being peer reviewed and supported by many other scientists (hoping to cancel out the internal biases). Though in social issues and politics its very different. Sure, there are scientific papers here too, but they cannot give definite answers on what to do about it. You get a bunch of facts without definitiv reason (like the number of births in a country with only hints on what might (!) influence this number) and politics is often about how things should be, according to people. Very different people eith many different opinions on how things should be.

Probably you could look through the sidebars of many instancesn searching for one, that fits your own view of what is "unbiased". Though not clearly stating what that means socially and politicly can make this difficult.

You only cloned the sketch into the other bodies. You still need to use these sketches in each body to create a pocket. So activate one of the side panels for editing (double clicking on the body in the list, so that the name is bold), then selecting the sketch clone and clicking the pocket symbol in the part design workbench. Set its depth and click ok. Repeat for the other side panel

Had it installed a few months ago. I really would like this to be good, but unfortunately its not. Mainly it is really really slow. For the games flow to work, you need more speed. A factor of 2 would already help. And flow features like grinding on lines and bouncing on rocks.

Und doch bleibt der menschliche Faktor: Wenn man sich vertippt und "Bernd" statt 50 Euro versehentlich 500 Euro überweist, hat er das Geld rechtssicher in wenigen Sekunden auf seinem Konto.

Das ist doch auch bei jedem anderen System so, oder? Bei normaler Überweisung und auch bei Paypal Freunde (was ja auch eine Bezahlmethide ohne weitere Absicherung für Käufer ist)

Her trying to trick Hogwarts elves into freedom is actually part of the books
