I mean, integrated recipies seem helpful, as it can tell you what when to add and with the scale already integrated it seems convinient. No? And some models have an integrated induction heater (up to 180°) so they can cook as well. So if you are alone and cooking a onepot or sth. you dont have to get out the pans or use the oven. I even heard of a device which is connected to a recipie database and an shopping-list-app. It seems convinient if everything is connected.

The appliance in the picture is a standmixer + scale + induction cooker with additional features to do much more (if you buy them ofc). What I dont know is if the app/wifi connection is required or optional, if its required I am not buying it.

It appeals to me because you can just throw in the ingredients the appliance tells you to and after 10-20 mins you have a done onepot, soup, dough or sauce. But am worried about the software part of this becuse I am with you about those 5 years and then they lose interest. But those companies are reputable and have a long history of repairing their devices and giving new warranty on it after the repair. So that makes me optimistic, kinda.

And Fahrenheit 451, another classic

Maybe its an old tradition. But I was shocked by how deadly being pregnant and giving birth (to the mother and the child even moreso) is, still to this day. I thought we solved childbirth or something.

Switzerland, why?

That is normal around where I live, because you never know if it will be alice alive after birth. So I mostly see the name in the birth-card my friends usually send

One does not simply “block fingerprinting”. Fingerprinting is incredibly complicated and very hard to avoid. You need VPN, Browser with no extentions and fixed windowsize (tor or mullvad), frequent cookie deletion, even the installed fonts/language packs can give them identifiers…

EFF has a good test which tests your browser

Blasphemy is always funny

Why is noone mentioning that this video was sponsored by Delta Airlines?

I am not saying that the content isnt good but it is somehow strange to me that an Airline of all companies is sponsoring such a video

Because of this I use Pocket by Firefox.

I know that its not Open Source and there are probably better programms but I kinda like it for its simplicity but there are also recommended articles if I have read all my saved ones.

I mean that may well be that I havent heard of “those” feminists, altho I hear about many things feminists here (in Switzerland) push for. I read the demands of every feministic protest for example and never was there one of the points I mentioned.

I think your comment sounded like victim blaming to me. For example:

Men die (more) in suicides. Feminists (mostly women) fight against the patriarchy, which is a product by men. If the higher suicide numbers is because of the patriarchy, then “its their own fault”.

Thats why I see things like “the patriarchy” or categories like “the men” or “the feminists” very critically as it generalizes too much.

And back to the OP: I dont think that a dedicated “minister for women” can or will help in men-issues, because I don’t believe the logical detour via the patriarchy makes sense. One would have to fight the misandrist laws like the army draft (here in switzerland its mandatory for men but voluntary for women) directly and not shadow-box ““the patriarchy””.

Because if there is then the calls for a

• minister for non-binary and intersex
• minister for the jewish
• minister for seniors
• minister for POC
• minister for car-lovers

And so on.

The only solution would be a minister for gender equality. Or social equality. And then there has to be a check, what issues this minister is working on improving.

I have never heard of a feminist…

• …pushing for more equality/fairness in custody-cases
• …being against showing men in a stereotypical bad light in ads.
• …being against alimony payments or fairer judge decisions
• …being against prison-rape jokes
• …speaking up for falsely accused men (Till Lindemann, Jonny Depp and so on)
• …being against dangerous work emvironnments or bad work conditions or bad jobs in general
• …pushing for more mental health support for men
• …being against men-only military draft.

It all being part of the patriarchy is maybe true if you want to look at it in this perspective. But I am of the opinion that most of those points would not majorly improve even if feminists would have total political control for the next 10 years.

Because feminists stand up for the rights of women. Which is totally important and good. But will not automatically improve the lifes of men, because its not the aim of most feminists.

I write it down if my voice tells me something I should remember, else i just let my thoughts wander wherever they want.

After a while I know what I want to do next, because boredom showed me what my body and mind needs.

Why? I use it for chats and group chats with many people in all age groups and it never sucks.

Theoretically unions are unionized workers who represent all workers. So they should do surveys from time to time about what the current concerns of the workers are.

At least thats how it works in Switzerland.

Unhook on Firefox is very good.

I heard that the wiki foundation is pretty well off and the saleries they pay the executives are rising pretty fast. Havent donated myself but in principle I should, eventho the higher ups are earning this much.

In the US, yes. In Germany, Switzerland and every other country with a good election system there are many different parties so you can just vote for the greenest (or the literal “Green party”).

Vote for better policies and laws that force companies to be better as well.

Even if we improve ourselves as much as possible: We still need the products of big corps which only improve because of (1) laws or (2) when losing money.
