I genuinely do not understand the problem with white spaces that people seem to have. Literally any well formatted code will use whitespace for indentation.

I imagine that if python syntax was the norm and then a C-style syntax language appeared, the same group of people would be complaining “curly brackets? Who thought that was a good idea?”

I’ve had one of these for probably 15 years now. Excellent tool.

To Bavaria. I live in Allgäu now

I’m Australian, and I moved to Germany some years ago :)

How does that make sense, it’s just arbitrary numbers. I can give you arbitrary numbers for celsius too: 30 being hot but tolerable, 20 being perfect, 10 being cold but tolerable.

Yes but I’m trying to find positives for the OP, not negatives 🤫

If you are looking for silver linings, just look at the positive political effect trump is having in other countries, such as Australia and Canada :)

I think the question is not questioning relationships, but asking why a marriage itself is worth anything.

You can have a lifelong partner without being married to them

Some of my friends got married, and it was just people dressing nicely and meeting at our favourite restaurant to eat a bunch of delicious food. It was awesome.

I’m not even American mate

That blood is actually blue until it gets in contact with air

I was also taught this in school, along with many very unscientific things. When they eventually taught us about evolution (they had to because of national curriculum) they couldn’t stop stressing how it was “just an outdated theory” and showed us additional videos which “disproved” it

Militaries having guns is a very different thing to the general population having guns.

There have been quite a few studies that suggest the opposite. I strongly suggest the book “Human Kind” if you want some optimism, it investigates this topic.

If you think they would be the consequence of banning and removing guns from society, you can test this theory by looking at any country which has already done this. What you find is that gun violence is extremely minimal in these countries. So turns out your worries are over nothing!

I mean people have fun with many things which are dangerous. Fireworks are dangerous, rock climbing is dangerous, driving is dangerous.

I’m strongly anti-gun, but I’m willing to admit they are fun.

In Germany helmets are not required. Some wear them but still very many don’t.

Communication, as always, is key. They need to have serious proper conversations, she needs to be told pretty much everything in this post. If she is unable to communicate properly then they should try resolve whatever underlying problem is causing that (via therapy or a doctor visit or whatever). But ultimately without open communication, there is no relationship.

And here I am discussing, trying to not disregard ideas I am cynical of, and instead ask questions to gain understanding. Apparently that is discouraged here.

Thank you for the resource, next time lead with that and skip the insults.
