  • Pretty much no one actually means people that rent out a single house with this.

    When there are enough vacant houses to give every homeless person a home that only stay vacant because some shitty corp decided to gamble with the housing market, with the government doing nothing to prevent this and being too incompetent to provide more than a fraction of the apartments they promised, one would assume that people wouldn’t build strawmen to make themselves feel better but actually for once take action against the people ruling our lives.






  • And the PC of my brother needs like a Minute to show the login screen and then another minute for getting more than 8 fps on tge desktop. Otherwise it works fine so he won’t let me take a look at it but as far as I know he doesn’t have any startup programs, meaning that this probably just is Windows 11 being shit.



  • The only reasons I still use Spotify is because I get it from a family subscription that my mother pays, so it doesn’t cost me anything. And it would be a big pain in the ass to get all my playlists on a local drive, changing to another streaming service would make it easier but then why change anything from how it is right now?



  • That’s the guy that took the “lunch atop a skyscraper” photo, right?

    My dad has that photo, except without the steel beams, that the Salzgitter AG several of his ancestors worked in gifted his father (or grandfather, I am not quite sure).

    "Lunch atop a skyscraper" black and white photograph of eleven construction site workers sitting on a steel beam over the skyline of manhattan, 1932

    Like this photo but without the steel beams they are sitting on and a caption that says something to the effect of “what would they do without us?” I tried to find it on the internet but sadly couldn’t find it. Is it just me or do the seearch operators not work anymore with ddg?



  • It is one way to do so, german youth also use several english terms or “Digga” which is a modified form of the word “Dicker” meaning fat. Although I am no linguist I would assume that Alter and Dicker were used in combination with Freund (friend) first since those are valid phrases that still are in use.
