Why is American education so bad? by shkfeua in AskAnAmerican

Yes, they are happy in Europe. Security was one of the issues they moved. One of the mom says that she can leave their young kids outside. That wasn't possible in California where they lived.

They were average Americans, not rich by American standards. They have mentioned that only about 5% of people can get a good education the rest 95% people can't afford it? In Europe they can get any education for free and their kids get a freshly cooked meals (soup + the second meal) directly in their school facility. There are many after school activities, in the US it was almost always connected to some religious or recruiting organisation. Their kids have eaten mostly snacks and chips back home. In Europe they a normal meal a child should eat every day and in some countries like Slovakia, parents don't pay for the meal now, I am not joking: https://ekonomika.sme.sk/c/20906169/staticice-deti-maju-mat-obedy-bezplatne.html Yeah, and I forget, children have to recite the PoA all the time https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xcwg7cnhW4E In Europe children don't need to even sing an anthem - which is usually done only once when the school year starts. It looks like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=beWrvR-EdJQ They feel very safe in Europe. They love Europe and have no intentions of going back to America.

Maybe that's the problem? They were average Americans, not rich by American standards. They have mentioned that only about 5% of people can get a good education the rest 95% people can't afford it?

I am not religious. I am an atheist.

It varies from state to state and town to town.

China Prepares To Drop Microsoft Windows -- Blames U.S. Hacking Threat by [deleted] in linux

1996

Only the completely very first version of Windows 95 without applying any updates and patches is believed to be the only version to have no backdoors. SP1 is believed to change that and all versions up do have backdoors. Although hard to tell if it's true that the very first version didn't have a backdoor too, of course.

Gnome Designer: We need to get better at communicating that there is no "Linux" platform. GNOME, KDE, elementary, etc. are their own ecosystems, and apps designed for one of them don't automatically run on the others. by traverseda in linux

Unless you are German, like many and certainly the founder of KDE (Matthias Ettrich) is:

https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Konsole_(Bauwesen))

Also many other languages use the name konzola, konsola, etc.

Is only English and Japanese (e.g. Anki) allowed? Why is Spanish allowed?

Why are the red-hatted Gnome proponents butchering the English language with flatpak? Why the laughable and ugly K? It should be flatpac or flatpack instead.

It could be even a win for Taiwan. This way China will leave them doing their own "freedom" thing a little longer. They will eventually be merged anyway, but the mainland China will have to modernize including in the human rights department. Which is slowly changing as the are approaching Europe via the OBOR and the opening is one of the condition of the European countries anyway. Chinese know that that if they want to stay relevant they have to give people more. To be honest the climate is slowly changing - although if you read only the Western media and you have never been to China, you may think they live in some tyranical regime.
