said the Lords was “doing the bidding of bad bosses” and ought to “get out of the way” of the plans.

I think someone didn’t notice who the “lords” are yet.

Even in TOS the Klingons weren’t as flat as orcs are in LOTR.

Roddenberry always tried to make sure their motivations made them “heroes in their own story”, while Tolkien wrote orcs as evil by nature.

France, UK, and Germany have the biggest communities (100k plus). Of this France has the biggest (440k and 2.8% of the population), but at least my perception is that it’s also the unsafest country in western Europe for Jewish people right now - I would advice you to reach out to Jewish organisations in Europe to get an accurate picture on this point.

Hungary comes next, but I wouldn’t recommend the country to anyone that self defines as liberal or progressive.

I think Netherlands and Belgium also have relatively big communities in the big cities.

I think all European countries have synagogue, but some have pretty small communities.

In most of Europe, including almost every big city, you can survive with English, and learn the local language after you arrive. It will be a hard blocker if you are looking for teaching position though.

One thing you don’t mention that would be important to figure out which countries would be a good fit for you is how important (or not) is to have access to a thriving Jewish community for you.

In terms of private banks, a basic savings account wouldn’t really be a big risk for them nowadays because it’s a bare bones account. It doesn’t include things like access to credit cards or other forms of credits, or any form of long term investments.

If anything, banks might even like the idea, because it gives them a way to offload their riskier (and let’s be honest less profitable) customers without making society fully collapse.

If the system is implemented properly it’s a win-win for everyone.

For all other Europeans out there, avoiding this situation is another thing the EU did for us.

For the Americans, write to your representatives demanding the same rights.

Excluding people from having a bank account in 2025 is basically condemning them to ostracism even without sending them to concentration camps.

Jeffrey Combs is an alias for all the Jeffrey Combs-looking alien actors that appear on Star Trek. #ConspiracyTheory #IWantToBelieve

It’s almost like most customers prefer function over form.

The good dæmons compete with pathogenic bad dæmons, and are essential for the computer’s health.

It looks like a nice mix of some of the worst design choices of C++ with some of the most dubious choices of Rust.

You fundamentally can’t visualize a world that’s different from our own. The best you can do is imagine Starbucks with replicators. I feel sorry for you.

I know people that enjoy those jobs in real life. If you don’t need to deal with American customer level of entitlement they can be great occupations for extroverts.

In this case christian name is a synonym for given name. I bet if someone was baptised with a name that doesn’t match their legal given name it would be the wrong choice in this context.

That is not dead which can eternal lie.

Though HP’s disturbed mind couldn’t ever come up with something as upsetting as the average PHP application’s codebase.

No other terapist wants to deal with the BS that goes on the Enterprise. Remember no one is actually required to work, so the leverage to force an assignment is not that great.

FFS. If you are in this situation don’t quit. Refuse to follow illegal orders until you are fired.

If a child dies of measles in a school all parents of all unvaccinated kids at school should be jailed for manslaughter.

If you work in tech in Europe, lots of people are already on mastodon.
