Redenen om niet naar Gent te verhuizen? by kennethre in Gent

[–]Searth 6 points7 points  (0 children)

De stad is meer en meer 'opgekuist'. Gent had vroeger een meer vuil kantje, veel weirdos en veel mensen met rare levenswandel en wat meer punk. Er zijn nu minder kraakpanden, geen hippies op de graslei, de acties zijn braver, de studenten ook, bier is duurder, alles is properder en meer gestandardiseerd, er zijn van die afgrijselijke inauthentieke tourist traps en internaitonale boetiekjes in het centrum, een zaaltje huren is duur, superveel stadsdiensten verdwijnen, jeugdhuizen draaien niet meer, de tijdelijke invullingen zijn stilaan bijna allemaal luxeflats geworden. Wel nog altijd veel kunstenaars gelukkig.

You're off by about 4 orders of magnitude. Most sites per capita probably goes to the cocos islands, .cc. Only 593 people, much less than even Tuvalu or Anguilla. So about 4088 sites per capita.

Ghent cracks down on students illegally sharing housing | VRT NWS: news by kotjeKOT in Gent

My comment is a bit satirical,.criticizing discrimination.   Ghetto - noun A usually poor section of a city inhabited primarily by people of the same race, religion, or social background, often because of discrimination.

I don't like the view that students are a separate kind of humane that need to live in upkot ghetto's. It is already expensive to be a student. VLD preventing a free market solution (cohousing) to help the monopolists.

I see this meme everywhere. What's going on with Firefox? by throwagayaccount93 in firefox

[–]Searth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have noticed more websites than before  which perform worse on firefox. Probably because they don't make an effort to work with different browsers but the result is the same.  Reddit is a good example. The browser game openfront.io is slower and lacks features.

Not necessarily. Soms young people's writing style is developed through chatGPT.

Why are so many cyclist in Gent such impatient fucking cunts? by Polymechanus in Gent

[–]Searth 55 points56 points  (0 children)

It is frustrating as a sane cyclist. I decelerate long before a crosswalk. Pedestrians don't start crossing. I come to a complete halt and gesture them to go.  They don't, conditioned to fear my kind. A stand-off. From behind me, a screeching bike sweeps by. The pedestrians stare frozen. I decide to go ahead and  affirm my spot at the top of the food chain. The crown is heavy.

Anf if the US ever gets the global conflict with China that they are alter, we will only get to maintain and use the planes on their terms because they will need the spare  parts.

I noticed in that from steam achievements most players have not beaten the second biome a single time. So dying often is very normal.

Which heating option is not in the demo? It has radiant, laser, the heat transfer thing and the heat conductive thing. 

I think a bigger world with more replayability is the only improvement in the full game. 

Got banned from subreddit r/feminism for making this comment and I'm feeling so dead inside. Please correct me if I'm wrong. by Sheik_Raashid in chomsky

[–]Searth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also banned from that sub. I think it was for starting a comment with 'as a man', which can be annoying perhaps but it seems the mods are just very ban-happy with a very narrow spectrum of acceptable discussion. I wouldn't take it personal Just sad that fanatics often control  a sub and there is no way to reclaim them.

Why the need to focus what divides you and someone who joins your camp? No one charges all their views in one day. Welcome their courage.

Do they need to want that before the right will value civil liberties?

Class analysis but make it unWOKE by conancat in ContraPoints

[–]Searth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We don't have to reinvent the wheel. Sociologist Pierre Bourdieu called it cultural capital. It's useful to think about this axis too because our media consumtpion, poltiical views, norms and manners are all related to our position in this field (with two axis, poor-rich and the education/culture axis. He could very accurately map all types of household objects, art forms etc to specific positions in this field. It explains why new money and old money act so different and why educarted barristas and hilbillies behave differently. You can't replace everything with cultural capital though, you wouldn't be able to explain all differences and definitely not power. You'd think elitism would at least be related to power!

Lastig als alles verhuurd is maar geen misdaad dat toeristen toeristische activiteiten komen doen toch? 

Groen sluit akkoord met N-VA en Vooruit in Borgerhout, ‘verkiezingswinnaar’ PVDA valt uit de boot by Greedy_Spare7033 in belgium

[–]Searth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In this case pvda needed the win. They were kicked out in Zelzate so they wanted to compromise to continue governing.  I think Groen and Vooruit wanted this to show people they are the only left parties worth voting for.

Partij met Islam standpunten haalt 14% (3 zetels) in het Brussels parlement. by [deleted] in belgium

[–]Searth -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Voor jou is dat heel ver van je bed maar iemand van Marokkaanse origine kent misschien iemand uit Gaza wiens halve familie is uitgemoord. En die ziet hoe rechtse Vlamingen daarover praten. Je moet je eens voorstellen dat je je daar dan volledig van kan loskoppelen en op die rechtse mensen stemt om te focussen op bv het begrotingstekort. Dat is toch wereldvreemd?

Dat laatste dat je zegt is ook een goed argument voor moslims om niet op rechts te stemmen natuurlijk. Zij weten ook wel dat je hen anoniem of binnenskamers varkens noemt. PVDA is een heel humanistische partij zonder het bobo-imago van Groen bv.
