  • Absolutely! Though the common usage of transgender or purely trans are more modern - it was usually referred to incorrectly or derogatory as transsexual or travestite which now are being reclaimed.

    I believe for stonewall it was reported as drag queens at the time, very much in line with your visibility and acceptance comment.

  • Is that a legitimate question?

    You are being asked to give up your nationality which until that point has been your identity and how you interact with the world.

    One of the first questions you get asked is "where are you from", and if you can't pass for looking and sounding like a German native then the next question is "where are you really from?".

    It sounds quite arrogant and insincere of you to say and hope that this is not a common thought.

  • The 8 to 5 years is a good change.

    Giving up your other citizenship (if you're not an EU/EEA country) is a really tough decision to take.

  • The germany subreddit was brutal and said unless you live in Berlin or work for an english speaking company you will have a bad time. Perhaps it has changed more in the last years and it might be easier to get in settled without german. Its famously a tough language to learn. It is also not a 'digital' country which may put people off.

    Have they changen from 8 years to 5 for all? And do they still require non-EU people to give up their other citizenship if they want German citizenships?

  • HP is interested in creating a SteamOS handheld, says Windows is a "struggle"

  • Hi! I want to be better informed, and looking at the link investigate.afsc it says

    As far as we know, HP Inc is no longer involved in these activities.

    I think when people refer to HP (HPQ) they think of 'Hewlett Packard', and therefore take the name to also mean Hewlett Packard Enterprise ("HPE") but those appear to be two different things.

    What I can summize is that HP build the teck prior to the split, which is now used by EntServ and DXC not part of HP. HP built a R&D center

    It looks like the company continuously split and sold parts of it to get away from that legacy. By not demonstrating how they are not involved this shows a level of complicity.

    If we start to look at the people in the companies, this will start to paint a different picture - Antonio Neri who is the President and CEO of HPE has been with HP since 1995. In 1997 he was 'global director of HP's imaging and printing services division'. In 2004 the company's 'PC services business', then began 'heading the technology services business' in 2011. I wonder how he personally was involved in the things HP did during his time in these roles.

  • It doesn't make it really seem its a test, unless maybe it does somewhere and I'm not quite reading it correctly. It says feedback otherwise it will be the new rule moving forwards which sounds like it is going to happen.

    I think you have, but its not everyone. In the end, I'm a lurker so take my feedback with salt. It is a right/good thing to do, it will have some other effects.

  • I would encourage you to go through providing alt-text for some of the memes that are shared here.

    Examples of alt text are usually against 'reaction memes' (which dont take more than 20 seconds). However, the more detailed memes I see from folk will genuinely take a few minutes of scrolling up and down to transcribe in detail what is being shown. An example of the 4 panel meme showing text on the left and text on the right will be 12 sentence-paragraphs long to articulate what is shown. Memes are funny not because of what is literally written, but also the insinuation or context that might not be written.

    I accept the quality versus quantity, but this should be recognised as a barrier of entry for others, and will be at the expense of engagement. I'd suggest giving it a test period and see how it goes. It would also help if all mods led by example, I only see sporadic usage of this.
