In Flanders (at least where I'm at) we usually say I grec, but when doing math or reciting the alphabet, we say IJ.

Cyrillic seems really difficult with all the vowel shifts, English doesn't even make sense in its own alphabet. Something like "Ай эм де лорд, дай год." then?

The price of bread has always been a good indicator for unrest, and it's rising quickly.

I understand your concerns. With our machines the QR codes can be forged, but manual recounts are done using the human readable votes on the receipts, which you have to check before leaving the voting booth and dropping the receipt in the ballot box.

Also, we have opkomstplicht (compulsory attendance), although research shows that our votes wouldn't change a lot if voting were voluntary. We also always vote on Sundays.

EDIT: Also, about 1 million people (around 10%) didn't show up to vote, despite the possibility of getting a heavy fine. Not sure how this influenced the result.

That's hardcore.

I truly don't understand qwertz. That being said, in Flanders we use azerty, while the Dutch use qwerty, despite us speaking the same language.

O weird, it doesn't have that connotation for me. I am from Flanders tho, not the Netherlands.

TOTP isn't supposed to be saved in a "cloud"

At my job every desk has a docking station with 1 or 2 monitors, a keyboard and a mouse. I actually quite like it. We've also got a "quiet office" to get work done and a "loud office" to take calls and stuff. I feel it's a good solution for companies our size (30-ish people that work from home half of the time).

If Mozilla were to disappear, Chromium web engine would have a true monopoly. Seeing how bad things are getting with their almost monopoly, I'd like to help avoid that.

In the 10-ish years I use Linux, I've never had any sound issues. I really don't get how people think this is still an issue.

Been using it exclusively for a few years now, I'm pretty happy with it
