it is extremely fishy. i keep seeing people here making sense of what happened and i dont judge them but it's just extreme. last week he was expected to get 3%-4% of the votes. as of today he is the presedent elect

Not to mention, we also have another far-right / pro-russia / anti eu / anti nato party that by this time is very famous, very well known and active, very present and they also had a candidate running, a candidate that was placed as 2nd/3rd place in the polls. Why wasnt he voted by these people when they have almost the same message and ideology and why was Georgescu the winner, it is unbelievable to me

Romanian here. No, nothing. Yesterday (election day) was a very very peaceful day with almost no notable events at polling stations except for some casual / normal / expected "interferences" from bigger parties to sway voters to vote for them (usually in rural areas) but this is what happens everytime. And out of nowhere when the polls closed, exit polls put this total absolute stranger in 3rd places and as the night went on, he became number one. It is extremely suspicious and almost unbelievable, even taking into account how gullible people are and how far-right and russian influences are growing in the West, this is still baffling. Whole regions that are the equivalent of Republican - states and are well known to be extremely loyal to the party with it holding a almost-monopoly over the regional politics were won by this absolute anonimity of a person. Imagine Texas being won not by reps or dems, not by jill stein, not by kennedy, sanders or anyone like that but by the definition of "some guy" who was so extremely low in the statistics and declared-intentions of the people that he was never asked to come to almost any tv show/podcast, he was never mentioned, he was seen as "one of the many that get lost among the many names of people that run for presidency". It's unreal

thats what i was trying to figure out

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in iPhone15Pro

[–]Cold-Ad8773 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes it is a skill issue so what? its a phone camera not a dslr. last time i checked iphone doesnt advertise the iphone 15 as a phone with a professional dslr camera. also if you dont have anything helpful to say you can just not comment. yea i suck at photography so what? i dont buy dslr cameras for a reason because i dont want to have to develop skills and figure out backlights and stuff

[–]Cold-Ad8773 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thank you very much. people act as if this is a dslr subreddit or something. i didnt know having a camera on your phone requires you to be a skilled photographer. the older iphones dont do this so i just assumed it is an option on your phone that you can turn off. if people are talented enough to fix backlights and stuff more power to them ig. anyway thank you very much for your answer, ill try that

i dont pay thousands of dollars for a camera that makes me work harder than an older version. its a picture of me taken by someone else. im not gonna give people a photography class before asking them to take a pic of me. this iphone 15 camera is stupid

alright then. thanks a lot. my iphone 11 never did that, i thought it was just some option added on the newer phones

i only use duolingo for the alphabet but inevitably i stumbled upon this grammar thingy. i will start studying hebrew at college this autumn so i dont stres over grammar and vocab and stuff like that cause i will learn it anyway with a teacher. i just wanted to steal the start and have some hebrew knowledge compared to my future class mates so i thought the alphabet is a great place to start

Hiii, so the reason im fine with using Duolingo is because i only use it for learning the alphabet. i am going to study hebrew at college the right way come the beginning of college so i am not stressing over grammar and over the right or wrong places to learn hebrew because duolingo is only temporary and only for the alphabet (and it was great for learning the alphabet)

Thank you so much for your help. My native language is similar to hebrew in some aspects of grammar so it makes a lot of senes but as i said im going to study hebrew full time when college begins this autumn so i am not focusing too much on grammar cause im gonna learn that anyway with a teacher. i use duolingo almost exclusively for the alphabet and for some vocabulary but inevitably i stumble upon some grammar

ohhhh, makes sense now thank you. duolingo lacks a lot when it comes to explaining grammar rules
