  • It’s farm products. I don’t think it’s any better or worse than American farms.

    Most meals are cooked at home and people do expect fresh produce. The milk in stores was tapped the same morning, vegetables are crispy green and minced meat is red. A negative side is that we do have an incredible waste of food here, because people set high standards. Nobody buys anything on the “best before”-date.

    I think the quality of food in USA is very dependent on location, distribution and preparation. Surely there is fresh food in US too, but it won’t be in the drive-thru.








  • You won’t need to ask anyone to “try it” or install anything. You simply send a link to the meeting and then it works for anyone on any device.

    That’s the good thing about it. You don’t have to coordinate whether the other part has Teams, Google Meet or Zoom or whatever.

    It runs in the browser, it’s free, encrypted and no account or installation required.







  • Ok, get this. You elect politicians to “help slash federal spending”.

    What the hell is Musk even doing and why is he outsourcing this job to unpaid idiots, when politicians already get paid to do this?

    Okay, I’ll do a few suggestions for free:

    • Stop subsidizing companies. All of them.
    • Tax the rich to boost the federal income.
    • Legalize all immigrants so they can be tax paying citizens.
    • Crack down on employers using illegal underpaid illegal immigrants.
    • Provide universal health care. Sick people don’t work.
    • Cut down on police force spending.
    • Cut down on car infrastructure spending.
    • Cut down “defense” spending in artificial oil wars.
    • Help Ukraine to defeat Russia, so Russia will have to surrender and disarm their nukes, so that USA can also cut down on cost for maintenance of nukes.
    • Expand renewable energy. It’s free energy yo, and it creates jobs for tax paying citizens.
    • Stop mining fossil fuels. It will cost more to clean that shit up than is earned.

  • I’d say that if you do have an opinion and state an opinion on something, then you should also know enough to explain why.

    Specifically about politics, it’s scary how many people have an opinion without knowing why. Politics is also something that everyone should have an opinion on, because it affects pretty much everything, so everyone do have an interest in something political. It shouldn’t be based on feelings or the charisma of the candidate or group pressure. It should be based on what affects you and how you’d want it done.
