The comments are really weird. Not just about the chart training and prostitutional aspect, but also that people who argue about it still seem to have a shared opinion that stererotypical men won’t do these tasks.
So, even if they acknowledge that the meme is crazy in one way or the other, they’re still reinforcing the negative stereotype of the bumbling sitcom dad and that these tasks are not manly or something.
This joke is quite toxic even when understood as a joke.
The only rule on punctuation that I ever learned in English was:
If in doubt - leave it out
Anyway, I fully acknowledge that my cellphone autocorrected my first comment wrongly and that “its” should have had an apostrophe. I’m just not going to edit it, because it makes no sense in any other way, so no one should be able to misunderstand the sentence and the grammar nazi added nothing of value.
Yeah I mean, it obviously depends on your age and world wide location. Contemporary 70 y/o in Europe have a decent understanding of math and logic. It’s a narrow cut off though. My grand parents on my father’s side never touched a computer while my grandparents on my mother’s side were shitposting on Facebook on their cellphones.
They were the example of the difference between understanding running a Fergus’s tractor and Wndows 95, despite having less than a decade in age difference
When my kid was a toddler we were standing in a street and she suddenly pointed at a group of people that looked like Pakistanis or Indians or thereabouts and asked loudly “Why do those people have dark skin?”
The entire street stopped and looked at us just waiting for my answer.
That wasn’t the time to go into long explanations about immigration, adoption, skin pigmentation or UV radiation.
I answered loud and clear “That’s because their parents had dark skin”.
Everyone shrugged and continued their business, but I’d like to think that my simple answer was a lesson for all the people who were ready to get offended from either a racist answer or from an overly political correct answer.
Personally I’ll always recommend Swordigo, which is also on the list. It’s old, but not only is it ad-free, free to download on Android, several hours of gameplay, but it’s also one of the best platformer that I have ever tried on any platform. Mainly because it’s perfectly balanced. No need to grind, but still difficult enough for some parts to require a little practice, without ever feeling needlessly difficult. IMO this game is what mobile gaming should have been.
My only complaint is they didn’t make a proper sequel.
Yes that’s also very common, but that’s a little more complicated. It’s only an option for people who have had the same job for more than a year and for those who agree on settling the entire holiday pay in June even if they don’t actually go on holiday then. It varies how people do it.
Unlike Norway, most EU countries tax the holiday on accrual so it’s always without a deduction when paid out regardless of when. Norway taxes it in the payment year though it is spread over the other months.
There are pros and cons to both ways. Personally I think that EU has the better one, not because of the taxation but because it’s not necessary to accrue holiday in advance.
It would be great if Victoria from Reddit would do it. Even Reddit can't do proper AMAs without her.
It's a pretty important task to verify that the AMAee is who they claim to be and to ensure that the technical things work.
There's no way that someone famous would bother making an account on Lemmy by themselves just for this unless they already understand what it is in the first place.
It basically requires a host to conduct it like a regular interview.
