Wasn’t there a project aiming to recreate the anime but without any filler?

In Switzerland about 90% of people submit their votes by mail.

You probably missed the “digitally processing” part. Reading it isn’t that difficult (still much more than french or english) but due to spelling variance and some other challenges it is mich more difficult to adapt existing models and architectures designed for modern German to premodern German.

In my case, working with administrative documents, there is also a problem concerning gerne-specific words (old terms for legal xoncepts basically) which for example are not well understood by systems created for modern German.

My work focuses on digitally processing texts from between 15th and 17th century in German. It’s a pain and i look with envy to my colleagues working in English and French (around the same time). On the other hand, i like the challenge. :-)

I’m a researcher and i would gladly send anyone a paper who asks, without a reason needed. Although all my papers are open access anyways so shrugs. Btw it’s also not unusual that people may just ask some questions related to ones paper via email and im always happy to answer those. I believe that most researchers are always glad to share their expertise and findings (as long as it isn’t a huge effort ofc).

If you’re not dependent on your parents, think about cutting them out of your life or at least strongly reducing contact. Trust me, mich less stress this way, choose people who are good to you to keep around.

In general i miss all the TTRPG communities

If anyone is interested in the state of things in Switzerland:

Our defense is in chaos right now. A scandal in our state-owned but public weapons manufacturer just broke a few weeks ago and shortly after the secretary of the departement of defense announced her resignation. We will see if the newly elected one will improve the situation.

The army is generally seen as somewhat of a joke, especially by people who served, which is more than half of all Swiss men. We like to call it a “Pfadiverein” (boy scouts association).

Even with all that, the right wing parties want to give a shitload more money to defense, and cut costs in social spending and foreign aid to compensate. Left of centre the need to improve defense is also accepted, but 1) before the army gets more money, they need to get their shit together and 2) more important than the army itself is integration with the european security Infrastructure (the left parties are also very pro-EU). The centre politicians usually mix blth stances and lean more one or the other way.

Also we still stand to buy fighter jets from the US, and only the left parties are calling to cancel the deal.

If you meant democrat vs republican just write that next time lol

Yeah the only option would be if SPD declares that they won’t do a coalition if Merz becomes chancellor. But 1) that would require SPD to have some guts, which they don’t have and 2) in that case the CDU would likely go for a minority government and work with AfD to push their cruel proposals.

So yeah, lile you say, realistically the GroKo is pretty much guaranteed.

Left vs right is literally down vs up

By your logic, AfD should now be below 5% because all major parties in Germany are now tougher on immigration, the CDU is now directly taking positions of the AfD a few years back.

In Denmark this may have worked, might just be correlation, but in general, what your saying is wrong and would make AfD even stronger.

No disagreement, just ÖVP should be FPÖ.

This is absolutely wrong. The validation of immigration concerns by the SPD, Greens and CDU is what gave AfD the popularity they have now.

This effect is well proven in political sciences.

Ich hoffe viele kommen noch zu dem Schluss. Für mich sind zwar einige der aussenpolitischen Positionen der Linke inakzeptabel, aber sie wären so, so wichtig als Stimme für die Schwachen im Bundestag.

They didn’t write communism, they wrote tankies. And while I won’t equate tankies to nazis, they do share a lot of ideology, such as their love of strongmen.

For context, it was clear from the outset that the right wing-free market gov would reject this. The proposed tax was submitted by the Juso (young socialist party) and it’s pretty clear that it will lose a national vote as well by a large margin (as the Swiss voting population is worse free market brained than even the US).

Now why would I consider this still a good move by the Juso? Because it brings up debate. About inheritance tax, but also about the injust society in general and how rich people don’t contribute their part. And in the long term, it moved the overton window to strech further to the left.

I’m Swiss and open to answer questions if you have any.

After reading that article, this feels like an insult to bed bugs.

tbf a big reason for our high share of non-citizens is just that citizenship is much harder to acquire than in most other places
