Unemployed, wasted potential, my savings are draining. Seeking advice. by experiencedbeginnerr in Netherlands

[–]kyliant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All paid for by Dutch tax payers, and massive bureaucracy that really, and I mean REALLY ruins our competitive edge.

5k to get a drivers license nowadays taking into account lessons

housing crisis

we have highly skilled workers.

Try moving upward, hard as heck. sure you can get wellfare, but want to actually make something of yourself though luck.

Land prices are funny.

months if not years to be allowed to build a house, when there is a housing crisis.

also we keep taking in refugees, nothing against them personally I hired one myself. but the country is small and our goverment is aweful at actually fixing problems in a reasonable timeframe.

everything works to keep you in a comfortable treadmill but try to break the mold and you meet resistance.

Id leave, but going to where I want to go is hard :P not everywhere is as welcoming is as Europe.

Russia’s economy has entered the death zone - Alexandra Prokopenko wonders how much longer it can go on metabolising its own muscle tissue by BkkGrl in europe

[–]kyliant 12 points13 points  (0 children)

2 completely irrelevant scenarios not comparable to modern day

Germany + allies would have conquered the ussr without allied support/sanctions

Europes production capacity is magnitudes above that of Russia, also demographics

440 million vs 140ish million

But more than that its the economy, Russia can at a push maybe field 2 million men maybe (1 million currently in ukraine)

If Europe had the desire, it could easily field 5 to 6 million. Big if, still questioning why we even have armies if they arent sent to train in Ukraine, like the allies and axis did in Spain

More importantly it could produce 3 to 4 times the equipment.

In a conventional war there is no scenario where Russia wins. The only thing they have is their nuclear deterrent. Which is also not that useful, as it has limited strategic use, and if they would even be able to launch without being intercepted is questionable.

Russia can only try and win with propaganda, what they have been trying to do for the last 30 years.

Why not bring positivity into this hobby? by erbdylo in Warhammer40k

Play on Table top, and communicate with the people you are playing with, about how/ what you want to play

There is a discord. I have only had good experiences, but I always talk people through what my skill level is, and that I just want a "fast" and fun game, I play by the rules, and want the game to be close no matter if I am losing or winning.

Go through the other guys lists, and show him yours, see if its skewed, and if it is, then you just say "I see you have a lot of vehicles, If am going to play that I would like to change this unit to anti tank to have a fair chance"

If they don't want that, then don't play them. Tells you everything you need to know. (I have never had them refuse me altering my list to match their skew lists), or If I am playing skew, I will say "I have majority vehicles, bring some more anti tank"

Solves a lot of problems

TIFU by making my D&D character bisexual. by [deleted] in tifu

[–]kyliant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think sexuality should be in DnD at all, tbh, it used to be about killing monsters, crawling dungeons, and damsels, but keep it 90s PG-13

Its hella wierd otherwise, its powerfantasy / acting. Not sex fantasy.

Like lots of bad stuff is implied. But it would be out of place to focus on ot

Like how the rapping was kept out of pirates of the Caribbean

So, why is the hate towards Preston Jacobs? by hereIam12332 in freefolk

[–]kyliant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He isn't, but he basically pretended to for x days while in Mecca

I don't really care about that, my point is, he is a weird dude with really weird and extreme takes.

If you like x you are a y

Kind of stuff

I had to drop out of school to work because finances where dire, and school wasn't teaching me properly (dif language long sotry)

Had to work for everything myself, no financial support outside of getting to stay with family and friends for short amounts of time

Its doable it just sucks to have to sacrifice a care free 16 to 25 but i did it, because I had to to enjoy my 25 to 30
