  • In Sweden, young adults feel most dissatisfied while the oldest thrive

  • In part, probably, but it's also a bit weird since in Sweden you have every opportunity to succeed. Primary school is free, University is free, even if you fail in school you can go to municipal adult education, also free. There is a welfare state that takes care of you and will even pay your rent and food expenses if necessary. Healthcare is almost free. Job market is rough atm, but not exceptionally so.

    To me it looks like younger generations look too much at other countries, which does have it worse, and somehow apply that to life in Sweden and believe things are really bad when in reality they aren't. Things can always be better, but I don't get the gloomy attitude tbh.

  • The world is trying to log off U.S. tech

  • Good.

    Even if we don't manage to do it fully it's still an exercise worth doing.

  • What's up with "Plex Servers"?

    Jump

  • You can, but it's also not a very hardened piece of software so relying on just that isn't recommended.

  • Good tutorial. Would love to see one on how to use it over I2P for anonymous torrenting.

  • But then they would have risen even without the introduction of the euro, no? This wasn't raising the prices by stealth because people couldn't convert between the currencies, it was just normal price hikes. Prices go up all the time.

  • I think the UI has improved with the latest release, but then you need to pay to use it on your car screen.

  • That's not really a criticism of the euro is it? I assume they could just legislate to keep both prices for a year or two just to keep the shopkeepers honest.

    Not open source though.

  • ‘A lot of fear’: the families bearing brunt of Sweden’s immigration crackdown

    Jump

  • No idea. The reason I read so much about migration is that I don't understand why it's such a big issue for many people.

    Sure, it can be done better, but that's true for almost everything in politics, so why is this so contentious?
