Mildly Interesting@lemmy.world•'Two laptops, six plugs': The South Korean cafes grappling with students who don't leave
9·3 months agoThere is also the opposite kind of cafes who just let you pay monthly for an office-deal.
Pay the fee, sit in the cafe for as long as you want, get access to a printer and special fee-user WiFi, three coffees and a sandwich for lunch.

5·3 months agoTo be fair, Germans and Brita love to complain. We ain’t happy if we can’t bitch about things.
On that note check out ‘Aligatoah - Es regnet kaum’ good song whose lyrics really are on point.
It starts with whether you consider mental disorders, such as depression as an illness or not. In western literature we are moving away from the illness aspect, because of its linguistic implication.
Illnesses are often thought of as being curable and have a foundation in something that causes the illness, like a virus, bacteria or similar causes. Whereas depression causes are manifold, from the light levels during winter, over learned behaviour to the very system of society. Which is why we consider depression not to be an illness but a condition.
As an analogy, you would not classify bad eyesight as an illness but a condition, there is no cure but there’s treatment, glasses. In some cases the treatment can be lasers and surgery which fix the condition, but generally speaking the same goes for depression. You can treat it with different methods, some can remove the cause and others require constant treatment.
The pictures also only mean anything when you know what they are supposed to be showing. If you have no context what either shows then it took us 66 years to add some colour to pictures while the overall quality of the picture didn’t even increase by all that much.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What would you do if you found out that your mother or sister was a sex worker?

115·4 months agoWhy post anything? Because they wanted to, the same way you posted something that you felt was worth adding. For me it wasn’t adding anything. Nonetheless I answer you. Because I wanted to.
It’s for familiarity, that way you can remember the variables better. taps head

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Anyone else that likes to put their phone in airplane mode to decompress/sleep?
6·4 months agoIf I’d turn it into airplane mode I’d be uneasy. DnD no issues there because emergencies come through but in airplane mode? Nope if anything happens somewhere I won’t be able to be reached. And then dealing with that seems worse to me. So I have it automatically jump into DnD at 21.00 and go out of it with the alarm in the morning.
Yep, everyone has to make adaptations, compromises and has to deal with things that are not ideal. However, this is often easier for neurotypicals than it is for neurodivergent and often on a less frequent basis. As in all things both have to make adjustments and both need to understand that the others have needs. The art is in finding what works for you, what does allow you to live your life in the best quality while limiting the impact on other peoples needs. Goes for everyone neurotypical or not.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Non-Americans, what's it like when you're sick and need to go to the doctor?
1·5 months agoIt’s a personal choice, the doctor is now allowed to do that if you wish. Often you yourself can tell whether this is a big one or just the common flu. So it’s great, because you don’t have to leave the house. Specially great for city folks who would often take public transport. Keeps the stuff more contained and not spread everywhere.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Non-Americans, what's it like when you're sick and need to go to the doctor?
1·5 months agoCall the place, if it is infectious they put you on sick leave and you don’t have to infect all ppl at the doctor. If the sick leave runs out, most often 3 days or so mainly to get you to the next weekend. If the issue persists you got to them. Doesn’t cost anything beyond what you pay in taxes. Anything that’s more involved than the typical issues might have you go to several offices (general offices then to more specialised) until someone makes a decision on what it is and how to deal with it. Also no extra cost; those come when you have something that could be dealt with but is not needed. Like you will have a decent quality of life if they patch it every now and then instead of fixing it. Then you might have to pay for that special extra pls just fix it. At least that’s been my experience in Germany.
Same, I always assume the ppl. Saying it’s black and blue are trolling me.

World News@lemmy.world•Revealed: Thousands of UK university students caught cheating using AIEnglish
11·5 months agoPersonally, I think we have homework the wrong way around. Instead of teaching the subject in class and then assign practice for home, we should be learn the subject at home and so the practice in class.
I always found it easier to read up on something, get an idea of a concept by my self. But when trying to solve the problems I ran into questions, but no one was there I could ask. If the problem were to be solved in class I could ask fellow students or the teacher.
Plus if the kids want to learn the concept from ChatGPT or Wikipedia that’s fine by me as long as they learn it somehow.
Of course this does not apply to all concepts, subjects and such but as a general rule I think it works.
Pfff just chose him to play Tetris or any other game without a win condition but loose conditions.
Maybe even rimworld, he gets sucked in and forgets that you exist.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•Here's for 2 years since I joined LemmyEnglish
6·6 months agoI’m in the same boat here, not regretting it at all that I moved on.
I like Oversimplified and Extra History, both are quite entertaining and I think they are both putting in great effort to make their content accurate.
I used to really enjoy CGPGrey but after too many flags and other things, I kinda just stopped watching that.
Kurzgesagt is a bit of hit or miss for me, I love their space and science-y weird questions but the more political stuff feels sometimes a tad iffy.
That’s mu personal take anyway and I know many might disagree. If anyone could provide the links that would be great I hate to use the YouTube app and in the web-Browser it’s a a bit of a pain.




I wouldn’t trust that man with my pencil. He either drops it and breaks the core or he will chew on the end (or both ends you never know). If he not outright steal the pencil claiming it was his all along.
