  • Even at the Winter Olympics, Europe is leading again.

  • Spain has also Sierra Nevada, which is higher and also offers snow.

    I agree on the infrastructure, but that makes my statement true because it's then a question of investing.

    Still, many of the sports don't even require a mountain or a cold winter (see ice hockey, all kinds of skating, curling...) and yet, Spain has way less people there than Italy.

  • Five? Wait... that is indeed weird. You are missing at least a couple!

  • Republicans: Yeah, sure. But the idea is to make that happen when we're dead. If it happens.

  • So weird, right? Nobody would have expected that focusing on luxury EVs while the market was demanding AFFORDABLE EVs would have make you sink while the Chinese brands making those affordable EVs soar.

    Why? Why did ignoring what the market was asking have consequences to my product?

  • That's only partially true.

    Italy is right now third in the rank (second in medal numbers) and the mountains and cold winters are only partially true. 

    Spain shares the same climate, with arguably more mountains and land where the winters are really cold and they are lagging a lot in the rank, they sent something like 20 people or so to compete where Italy sent many more {something like 120 iirc). 

    It's not just having mountains and cold winters.

    Trump receives trophy as he’s named ‘Undisputed Champion of Beautiful Clean Coal’

  • Oatly loses long-running 'milk' battle with dairy lobby

    Jump

  • Alpro had a dispute with their soy milk too in Italy.

    In Italian, milk is "latte" (double t, important for the question).

    They got said that they can't call the product "latte" because it is not milk as it doesn't come from an animal.

    They created a new packaging with a huge writing saying: "Questo non è LATE" (with a single T). It could roughly be translated to English as "This is not MYLK" . They are still selling it because they are not selling milk.

    Edit: apparently it's not just an Italian thing as they sell it in English as "not MLK"! Funny tho, I almost got the name right without knowing it!

  • I'm not sure that is as harmless an option as you migh think.

  • Do you have hope for Generation Alpha?

    Jump

  • I wish they did live happy, but seeing the world and how is it going I have strong doubts. 

    But I'm no blaming the kids for this. I'm blaming the parent thinking that an iPad is a great distraction to keep the kid busy and the rest of the society that has voted consistently to put in charge assholes who openly made education worse every time they could.

    And yes, I do think that stupid iPad is to blame even though I grew up with a gameboy. My gameboy had games, it played tetris, it played mario or pokemon. My gameboy didn't have tiktok or youtube. It's not the same thing.

  • There are many possibilities with this info and right now, I'm not sure which one is worst because they all are extremely awful on their own.

  • I'm fed up with Copilot, and I'm not sure it can be fixed

    Jump

  • I think it's worse: it's laziness. It's easier to ask a machine so it does the job for you. And since it looks mostly ok, they keep doing it.

  • There are people who can't properly function without an llm. And it's not just a few, a good bunch of humans have decided to leave the reasoning skills to a chatbot so they don't have to do it.

  • Entitled tourists are like that. Not all are like that, but British in Spain are the worst offenders because they tend to act like this. They think Spain is their personal beach so locals are just a bother for them because they... you know... live there.

  • Not critizicing you or anything, just pointing out that this is a common sight from entitled tourists, especially British, because the ones behaving like that think of Spain as their personal beach.

    We hate them for a reason; going to another country thinking the people there should live to serve you as if you were at home and not them is a powerful driver to make people hate you.

  • Discord after leaking 70,000 government IDs last year

    Jump

  • I'm so certain you will delete the id immediately after I send it that, after carefully considering it, I deemed it a waste of time: if you are deleting my ID immediately, the time spent on sending it is better used on something more useful, like taking a dump.

  • The "@" is sometimes used because it's made of an "o" and an "a" making it somewhat both at the same time, but it presents a very obvious problem: how do you say it? Because we call that symbol "arroba" and saying "encantadarroba" sounds weird AF. Just switch the vowel for an "e" and be done with it. In italian there's the "schwa": ə" that serves the same function, it's harder to type because it's not usually found on keyboards, but whatever, if being inclusive and pissing bigots takes so little effort, I'm gonna try and use it as much as possible, even if it's still something that takes some effort to apply at times because of the interiorized grammar that you have to unlearn.

    Edit: forgot to add, bigots get angry about it because you are "desecrating the sacred language" or shit like that. But you know how it is, they are the biggest snowflakes ever.
