  • Jeg havde en mor der var ingeniør, men en far der var selvstændig håndværker, alkoholiker og maniodepressiv. Min fars underskud blev ikke trukket fra min mors løn. Det betød at jeg fik mindstesatsen i SU, og der var intet at hente hjemmefra… Det er altså ikke nok til at man kan klare sig.

    Jeg gennemførte ikke min ingeniøruddannelse, og nu har jeg ikke SU tilbage så jeg kan ikke starte igen efter jeg har sparet lidt penge sammen. Jeg har ikke råd til at financiere det hele selv, og kan ikke spare nok op som ufaglært.

    De regler der er nu ødelægger folks liv.





  • I enjoyed it when the author was in charge of the TV series. I watched until the end of the initial series, but after that I never looked back.

    Spoilers/explanation below:

    Too many things didn’t make sense, like how the dragon queen suddenly became a completely different person. How the Lannister siblings made up after hating each others guts, only for the tower to collapse on top of them the same instant. That everyone met their nemesis at the very end. Why anyone would vote for Bran to become the new king when he barely spoke to anyone since he was like 13 years old, and many other inconsistencies like that. The last couple of seasons barely had any story at all, it was mostly about fighting… It was bad.



  • I disagree with your statement about quality. For instance, I’d much rather have a German car than an American one. America doesn’t really make things any more anyway, most of it has been outsourced to China or other countries. The manufacturing expertise has mostly left the US. See for instance some of the most recent videos done by Smarter Every Day on YouTube where he talks about how hard it is to make a purely American made product.

    What they have in the US is money so they can buy stocks and other things like that, so they make money off of things that others make.

    They also make a ton of money off of everybody using the dollar as the global trade currency. That means that they can print a lot more money in the US without it causing as much inflation as it would otherwise, and the money they print are released into the US economy. They basically get to tax the holdings of companies all over the world that way.







  • I’ve been searching for knowledge my entire life, and I love sharing what I have learned. Helping others with whatever struggles they may have gives me more pleasure than doing the same thing for myself. I don’t care if it is helping fix computers, doing math, physics or chemistry homework, helping replace a chip on a broken electronics component, or basically whatever you may think of. I’ve been around the block once or twice - I spent basically all my free time over the past 25 years nerding over anything and everything.

    I would hate to be ignorant and lose the capability of helping others or myself.



  • Modviljen mod amerikanerne startede jo allerede under hans første periode, så det kan sagtens have noget med det at gøre alligevel.

    Det kan også hænge sammen med at venstreorienterede generelt er højere uddannet, og at de reagerer kraftigere når de muligheder som jeg tænker at de er mere tilbøjelige til at opsøge forsvinder.
