Yeah Wero is more of a PayPal replacement than a credit card alternative.

The sad thing is that Italy has a Wero-like app, used especially in the North of the country, called Satispay. But apparently Satispay is not participating in the European Payment Initiative (EPI). And, the saddest things of them all, is that Satispay began as an alternative to credit cards, but now they issue a MasterCard so you can pay in every shop. Wtf the whole point of Satispay was not using American cards!

What does he have to gain? Does Spotify pay you if your playlist is successful?

We should get rid of the dollar as an international currency, and also credit cards from MasterCard/VISA

I hope the UK will rejoin the EU soon. Brexit has been a shit show, and most of the people who voted to leave are dead by now anyway.

Amazon is completely useless now. Most of the things they sell are cheap shit from China with a huge markup.

Just go on AliExpress directly and you’ll find the same exact products for half, or even one third, of the price.

And for all other things, try local online shops. There are price aggregator services that help you find online shops for all the stuff you need.

Amazon is useless and they don’t deserve any money.

Call me a conspiracy theorist, but I think the bad aiming was an inside job. No way somebody can get so close to kill a President with modern day security.

Yeah the crazy thing is that most people were using ADSL connections directly from their computer, without a router.

Raw dogging the internet with no firewall, that was wild.

Italy has been “blocking” sites by forcing DNS providers to remove them for ages.

And that’s lucky, I’d say, because it’s super easy to circumvent.

And that pic is with the classic (Office 97-style) interface.

You can also switch to a more modern style, called “Notebook bar”, which is similar to the Ribbon interface you can find on Office 2007+.

(Honestly? In my opinion, the classic interface is the best)

Yes, LibreOffice uses its own custom rendering engine and that’s not the most performant…

But you have to understand that before LibreOffice there was OpenOffice.org, which itself comes from an old German application called StarOffice.

And oh boy, StarOffice! It was quite peculiar: it used to render its own desktop environment that took over Windows Explorer, with its own Start menu!

So, let’s all remember that LibreOffice still has that legacy to carry on.

Me too. I’m still on macOS 15 because I can’t stand the mess they did with Liquid Ass on macOS 26+.

I’ll just move to Linux Mint in a few months…

So that’s why hard disks are so expensive now…

I don’t know about France, but I’m Italian and here, in some cities, most of the damages were done by immigrants or 2nd generation immigrants. But newspapers stopped calling them immigrants and now they use a different word, “maranza”, as if immigrant is a bad word you shouldn’t say.

So of course right-wing politicians, with the help of Russian bots, are trying to spin everything in their favour, trying to increase hatred in order to get votes. But it wouldn’t be fair to negate that most of the damages were done by immigrants. I live here, I saw them with my own eyes.

Sony wanted to go full digital, so we’re going full digital ;)

Didn’t Kim Jong Un recently die but they’re still keeping it as a secret?

Yeah, I’ve recently watched Smarter Every Day’s videos on YouTube about completely building a scrubber in the US. It was almost impossible and in the end he had to build a part in Canada.

I think all the problems he highlights in the videos are the same in Europe. We simply don’t have the tools and the knowledge required to manufacture products anymore.

YES! I want it. A way to get Canada closer to Europe… in preparation for them to join Schengen and the EEA

My European mind cannot comprehend how a word can upset people.

‘No Way To Prevent This,’ Says Only Nation Where This Regularly Happens

I think it’s good to ban all religion from schools.
