Let me tell you one thing: You’re doing alright.

Having your kids feel safe enough to be open like that and yourself sticking to listening and being there is probably the best anyone can hope for.

Urgh, and there’s a gofundme campaign that’s raised more than 40k already… and an “army of prayer warriors”…

Jesus fucking christ.

The main economically meaningful aspects of “retirement age” in Denmark AFAIK is that:

• You get entitled to receiving the public, state-paid pension.
• Private pension schemes that vest at this point or later are tax deductible. (you still pay taxes when it’s paid out, but due to the progressive tax code you end up paying less)

By far the most relevant of the two is the latter, as practically everyone is covered by pension schemes included in employment contracts.

As such you can still retire any time you want, but it will be more burdensome for you to it earlier than at the age sanctioned by law.

This.

I just wish we could collectively realize the whole enterprise is epistemologically bankrupt.

It is okay to stop trying to apply reason once you have encountered the first unreconcilable contradiction.

Vi skal flytte tilbage til DK og ungerne skal starte i ny skole. Det føles som et fuldtidsjob at holde styr på.

I’d vote to ship as many eggs as the market can bear. With the proviso that each egg comes painted with the face of Donald Trump and an “information” pamphlet…

Same. Wishful thinking I suppose.

Hvor kunne det være fint at sælge dem æg pakket ind anti-trump propaganda og hver enkelt malet som trumps ansigt. Så skal de nok få knust nogle æg.

You’re right - it isn’t. I’m tired too, so only put it in the alt text that it’s a snapchat filter 🤦‍♂️.

Is it because a trained AI is used for profit?

Absolutely. But especially because it skews the market dynamic. Copyright doesn’t exist for moral reasons but financial reasons.

Is that a promise?

And right you are OP. I’ve thought the X had some resemblance to a swastika but this is the first time I’ve seen someone actually realizing it graphically.

Velfortjent! Eneste grund til at vi overhovedet fik vores var at min mor var over dem som en høg for at bestille et eksemplar til sit barnebarn.

Det lyder umiddelbart som noget vi hellere skulle lade være med…

Overvej lige hvor meget opensourceudvikling og drift man kunne få for en milliard kroner…

Jeg bruger Firefox til både Mastodon, Lemmy, og Pixelfed. Apps er noget stads :p

Schadenfreude intensifies

Being a 3-dimensional being I was only able to make sense of this by imagining what a 3D puzzle piece would look like.

This is of course a lie to make myself sound clever… it was the buttplug analogy that made it all snap into place for me.

Peekaboo!

I’ve heard about https://docs.cwtch.im/, but haven’t tried it. It does seem to take privacy very seriously.
