Entonces, ¿cómo funciona lo de escribir topónimos? ¿Usamos la denominación oficial o la del idioma que se utilice? Lo digo porque no quiero que nadie me llame facha por decir Gerona o Lérida.

"The human race has one really effective weapon, and that is laughter."
— Mark Twain

My point is this: there's no need to reach parity in every job. Why does no one see a problem in the day care sector, where women are maybe 90% of the workforce, if not more? Or in the coal mines, where there are barely any women? Or in deep sea fishing? It's always politics, tech and C-level jobs, for some reason.

Why does no one care about women now being a majority of the students in college in every specialty (with the gap growing every year) when not that long ago it was a concern that they were a minority? Shouldn't we be worried about how schools leave boys behind?

Is it that hard to understand that different people have different interests? I got into computers because when I was a child I got an MSX2 machine and I thought it was cool, but neither my parents nor anyone close to me was remotely knowledgeable about computers. I had no role models and no one could teach me shit.

FF some thirty-something years: my nephew, who is crazy about videogames, is completely useless when it comes to computers. I've never seen anyone get so nervous when it comes to typing anything in a terminal. And he has me to teach him. He just doesn't like it, and that's ok.

I work in fields related to nurse training and I detect a lack of teenage boys. I don't know why, but after a certain age they disappear. I think one of the causes is the lack of male role models in the nursing field, or adult male nurses to look up to or empathize with.

But, seriously, stop referring to center-right, pro-establishment organizations as left-wing, please.

Beautiful. One of the founders of Occupy Democracts was the founder of Tribel. The whole scam makes sense now:

TribelSocial: I want to be the competition to Twitter, but for some reason I feel the need to have a Twitter account.

Serious question: Did Facebook or Twitter ever have a MySpace or LiveJournal account?

Command-line and text-based user interfaces used to be a necessity, now they are a virtue 🫳⌨️

The problem with nuclear energy was never one of pollution, but of it being potentially dangerous _if anything goes wrong_. (And a lot of things can go wrong with the current state of the technology.) Personally, I think the question we should be asking is: “Would you be willing to have a nuclear power plant near your house knowing that it would be run by your friends and neighbours?”

Gracias, empresa para la que trabajo, por utilizar MS para casi todo. (Para todo lo demás, Amazon.)

I had fun today on Fedi. Thank you to everyone involved.

As predicted, Zelensky (in the form of “the people of Ukraine”) won. The European Union is, for the most part, a scam. We're all vassals to the US.

This is #EU disinformation -
MEP's had no vote to decide which of the short list of 3 won the #SakharovPrize - It was decided by the Conference of Presidents. What chance had Julian #Assange who's in prison for exposing #US #NATO War Crimes, given that EU is subservient to US..?
RT @europarl_en: MEPs have awarded the brave people of Ukraine, represented by their president, elected leaders and civil society, the 2022 Sakharov Prize…

I just realised that the real name of Minnie Mouse is Minerva.

Today (well, technically yesterday, local time) I discovered the Tropedia and I have to say it made my day.

I enjoyed Serial Experiments Lain when I watched it, but, seriously, some of you act like a fucking sect about it.

An ex-NSA employee was charged with espionage (he tried to sell secrets to the Russians) because he was in “financial need“ _due to student debt_:

Student debt has become a security problem in the US. But I'm pretty sure nobody will move a finger to solve it.

Wow. This is the stupidest flowchart I've ever seen in my life. And I've been reading flowcharts since I was a child.

Just email the author. They will appreciate the interest you took in their work and be more than happy to help you. Everything else there is just a Google ad.
