  • Something Surprising Happens When Bus Rides Are Free

    Jump

  • One of the anti-everything groups in our city actually put out a public statement about how people advocating for public transit "just wanted to be able to go out partying and then ride transit home!! REEEEEEE!!!!"

    Many people went "yeah, duh?"

    <confused looks>

    Isn't that a phenomenal reason to have great public transit? It literally saves lives and promotes enjoying life.

    Calvinism is such a blight upon humanity.

    Jump

  • The vast majority of the paperwork they're citing as the doctor limiting problem is due to onerous insurance and government rules designed to burn time and raise costs.

    Single payer is going to make these doctors more efficient than any untried AI system. I've been in and around the AI+Healthcare world for decades now. Single Payer universal healthcare is the biggest easiest win for the people. After that, we can move onto your AI industry kickbacks.

  • It might also be the football isn't as popular as music? I feel that more analysis would be needed before we can determine contributing factors in such a large community sample size.

  • I guess they've got spare time now that everyone in the Epstein-Trump files have been brought to justice for the child rape and Dow is over 50,000.

    Ist this the same kind of shit the government pulled in the 1950's with Elvis' early performances? These evil people really do want to bring back the 1950's.

  • Is US healthcare always paid even in the most extreme circumstances?

    Jump

  • Your instinct is correct: the reason for injury doesn't matter, you shall pay. Welcome to the US of A where peasants be screwed by capitalists and the peasants usually ask for more of the same.

  • If there's nothing else, Germany can complain about Deutsche Bahn! I have a long commute to work (my employer ist sehr schlect in some ways), so I've spent many months playing "will it, won't it" on RE train delays. I even had one vanish on the app after it claimed to pass through my station. Geistbahn!

    The dumb part is that I started visiting Germany back in 1995. The trains ran much better. Nich so viel Störungen oder unregelmaßig dingen. Good memories only cover over so many cracks, though.

    It'll only take about 20 years of big investment to rebuild the train network after so many decades of underinvestment by conservative governments. No worries, any day now.

  • I kept seeing discussions about the way things generally work in Europe, the rights people have, and the cultural appreciation for people's health and I finally said "fuck it! Let's move to Europe". I'd been visiting for decades off and on, so we made it permanent.

    It only took three years of applying for jobs, saving, and finally getting all of our family needs in order, but we did it. If you can, give it a look.

  • Mülltrennung ist seht wichtig! Wir wissen das, aber die Gelbetonne ist komisch.

  • Bingo! Yeah, it's bad there.

  • I had my first real sickness for time off since I moved to Germany. I had a call with a doctor, they pushed a sick note into the digital health system, and my company noted it as paid time off.

    Modern civilization in a developed nation rocks.

    Now if we could just get the paperwork to die down a bit... Oh, and find a way to get the trains on time!

  • Undeveloped societies can be like that. It's often places that don't have many rights for the citizens and are worse off in wealth then the pre French Revolution France. Basically peasants with smart phones given this day and age.

  • It's the old adage about Conservatives: They don't care what you do unless it's a boy or a dead girl.

  • Germans increasingly concerned over social inequality

    Jump

  • Basically: conservatives keep trying to steal all the wealth for the wealthy and the public noticed that they'd be screwed (again/still).

    The Conservatives: we'd love to help all of those staving kids and homeless people, but we'd have to tax a couple of billionaires. Sorry, can't do it.

  • And then when the wheels come off you just need to sit through a bunch of boring congressional hearings before they cut you a really big cheque.

  • Henceforth, a minimum of an individual personal transport pod must be used at all times when leaving the comfort spaces! No facilities are made for unprotected movement around the surrounding area.

  • Elon Musk is digging a car tunnel under Nashville, Tennessee to reduce traffic jams. Local officials are worried.

  • That explains so much about why the various stations on the Berlin Ubahn lines either do or don't have shopping inside of them!
