Exactly the same! I follow an Italian news Podcast, this journalist happened to mention it and I just said to myself- why not, let's try it.
And here I happily am!

So it's 9pm- or 2100! I very much hope you're still awake- it was a really nice conversation, Bsky is full of surprises! Let's do this again! I'll see you- well I was going to say tomorrow. I'll talk to you later, good night! =)

And that was "is" not "it's"... Forgive me please- but hey, blame my sleepy neurons! ;) Ciao...

Of course I love it, I wouldn't be here at this hour otherwise. My brain is mostly okay with this, it just slows down- my body on the other hand I think it's quite angry!

Thank *you*! Here it is almost time for a shower and a cuppa- I hate Bsky, it destroys my Time Zone! I talk with people from all over the US, I have to keep track of all of them: she's Eastern, he's Central, he's Mountain, she's Pacific, that other one is from the Space Station! ;)

Seriously though, the big G is incredibly vast, they cover the entire World- I usually read just the European section, but if I'm not careful entire hours would pass without me ever noticing...

And feel free to correct me, at my age I still confuse lose vs. loose, it just happens and I can't even blame Dyslexia! =)

The Guardian, definitely! theguardian.com
President Sanchez Socialist Gov in Spain is extremely frail and Centrist Macron's in France is virtually non existent. We 🇪🇺 are a lose Confederation of like-minded Countries but the Commission in Brussels doesn't have the Strength to hold us together

You probably meant 1 forward and 2 back?
I'm dreadfully waiting for Feb 23 (Federal elections in Germany)- if AfD should form a Gov I really don't know what will happen to the whole Continent...

To be honest, it was written specifically to prevent another Monarchy or another Fascist regime. Yet in spite of that we have Giorgia Meloni as PM...

Voting was once obligatory here as well, but it was decades ago. Still, turnout is usually high maybe because of that.
Rewriting the Constitution is like rebuilding the Country, it takes time and a lot of honest people.
And I studied something else entirely! :)

It's a strange World, isn't it? ;)
But basically it's checks and balances, only enforced in a different way... 😀

I very much like to live in a Country whose President is elected by Parliament and who confirms or denies the legitimacy of the Government. Not vice-versa.

On a more serious note, 19 years ago when I was a Mac OS X support guy the most welcome change was denying users (40+) root privileges (when switching from Classic to BSD).
Support calls basically stopped after the upgrade... Such a bliss!

So right!!! You do understand that we seem ridiculous to basically everyone else... "Sounds like fun!" ;)

Uptime here on Mint is 3+ days and counting. All the other kernels would have crushed by now because they couldn't reclaim memory. I'm in a Myiazaki anime!

Pronounced wrong, historically incorrect, factually inaccurate. And yes, politically I agree 101%, I'd vote for you *right now*!!!
But if you choose this path you can't make a single mistake. You made 3 in a single 30sec video.

This is NATO vs NATO, it didn't happen in the '80s between Greece and Turkey, historically fierce enemies, must it now happen between Washington and Copenhagen, really???

Here insurance is yearly. What I didn't know is that once you don't possess a vehicle (auto or moto) in your name for 5 years for them you'll become an 18-year old kid again, thus paying the max. It happened to me at 31 and I'm still climbing back up the ladder.

The cheapest I could find asked for 233.something- less than half of those bastards...
