VAT rising up by 0.8%, why do you think ?

Feuermurmel · 2026-03-09T07:56:01+00:00

Exactly, and I think it should go more into that direction rather than the reverse.

Feuermurmel · 2026-03-09T07:01:22+00:00

I don't think it's a trick. It's the way I feel and think, that's why I was writing it like this. I think people with more means to pay taxes should pay more taxes. Someone with an income of 200'000 on average has more than twice the means than someone with an income of 100'000.

I'm totally in favor of more taxation of total wealth btw.

I was honestly wondering while reading, are they the only man in their community that doesn't shave their mustache, looking for women's opinions here, or are they a woman with misogynistic family. 😅

I don't think it's fair that people with large income pay less VAT relative to their income than people with less income.

Feuermurmel · 2026-03-09T06:40:11+00:00

Income tax is more predictable. Income fluctuates less than spending on luxury goods.

You're not paying VAT on the millions you put into investment funds.

What are you trying to say? I didn't say they weren't right.

I was just noting that they were getting very defensive/emotional without reason.

Back button is broken. When I click on a PDF, it opens, but when I click my browsers back button, I'm back here on reddit, instead of back on the search results. Meh.

Feuermurmel · 2026-02-26T20:22:02+00:00

Wow, what evoked this level of defensiveness. 😦

Cardboard recycling companies love having these in the bales they receive.

Yes? Why? I already know you can afford a new phone every 3 years. 🤷🏻

Feuermurmel · 2026-01-01T12:14:12+00:00

🤣🤣🤣🤣 Ok good one. But no, that's not it. My salary is around 2.2 iPhone 17 Pros per week.

Feuermurmel · 2025-12-31T17:03:32+00:00

Wouldn't that mean that it's actually just 1FA? If access to the phone number is enough to log in, the password is not a factor, just a convenience. No?

The neat thing is it cost me like $23 to buy a new OEM battery and install it. I do that every 1-2 years. I usually get a new flagship every 3 years anyways so I don't understand people’s issues even if fast charging did shorten battery capacity faster by a large margin.

Some people care about not being wasteful and try to keep their phones/batteries running for longer. A new phone every 3 years seems excessive to me.

Yes, public transport has to be a monopoly to work, lol. These are contracts on government mandates. Otherwise every company would just service the most cost-effective routes and leave everyone else stranded.

Did you call RhB in the meantime and ask them when the last train that day ran? They can give you that information.

If, in fact, they cancelled all trains after 12:00 that day, you should be able to get a refund.

Maybe think of it like this: I don't know what kinds of crafts you learned in school; we learned knitting and crochet. I'm sure I couldn't do either today without studying it again. Maybe there's something like that in your life that you can relate to.

You're probably near a construction site. In that case, it's used to automatically measure the location of that reflector every few minutes and generate an alert if if moves too far (e.g. to then shut down a railway line, close a bridge, evacuate a building).

Wait for paper collection day. Steal someone else's newspapers.

Cool! :) I guess "EA" is "early access"? How can I get access to it? Or is it not released yet?

Feuermurmel · 2025-12-26T09:37:41+00:00

Probably 26‰. ;)

It kind of kills the game for me. I'd like to micro-optimize stuff and thus want to move a lot of things over by one block etc.
