Definitely; I knew a Frenchman living in Australia who spoke French with an Australian accent.
- Comment on Why do some users have zero upvotes on their posts/comments? 13 hours ago:
I get paid for each downvote (by Reddit). So I’m unusually fast in hitting the Big Red Button.

What are you hinting at? Not so sure what you mean.

Most people write it down someplace.

“Nothing else in his apartment“? No towel, sock or Kleenex?
- Comment on Would we be seeing these emails involving Epstein if they were all using E2EE email service? 1 day ago:
I always presumed they got his passwords and simply logged into his accounts.

What do you read then? (To get a balanced information load, it is important to also read newspapers, that do not fit the bubble that one lives in).

El Pais - English edition NOS - Netherlands The Guardian - UK / global BBC - UK Euronews
- Comment on How do I keep a brand new one of these mats from wanting to keep curling up on the ends? 5 days ago:
This looks like an office building? You could turn the corners into “meeting areas” where business men and women meet for brainstorming or team building exercises. If this is your private home you could have your children stand there when they have done something naughty.
- Comment on Melania documentary struggles in UK cinemas as Vue admits sales are ‘soft’ 1 week ago:
There was a documentary about her a few years back on ARTE. She’s an extremely empty person, with no distinguishing characteristics, the documentary was like eating sleeping tablets.

Lack of education.
- Comment on What are super-computers used for ? 1 week ago:
Oh noooh. The number of permutations needed is mind-boggling, bigger than the shoe collection of Imelda Marcos.

I’m a bit of a hipster myself, and I can only agree.

In molecular biology, they are used for instance to calculate/ predict protein-folding.
- Comment on What are some ways to fight for socialism from the comfort of your room? 1 week ago:
Why do you want to to that? Socialism existed as a political system for 2-3 weeks in 1917, and since then had been wiped from the earth and for good reason too.

- Comment on Is anyone else having a hard time sympathizing with Americans? 1 week ago:
US Americans are (in general) poorly educated, and they live on an island, far away from other peoples and other cultures. They speak mostly just one language, and mostly get all the news exclusively from US sources. Due to their capitalist system, the have hardly any vacation, resulting in quick trips to foreign countries (the typical “see all of Europe in ten days”). On top of that, the top political issue in elections is always the wallet (“it’s the economy, stupid”). And if you live in, and support such a capitalist echo chamber, and have allowed it to develop, you have considerable responsibility for what is happening today - even if you didn’t vote for maga.

Sex mostly.
- Comment on How can we convince Trump voters to NOT vote for Trump (or Vance) in the 2026 midterms and the 2028 election? 1 week ago:
It is tough to convince die-hard voters. Your best bet would be to convince the doubters. So make sure YOU vote, make sure as many people as possible make use of THEIR right to vote. Campaign door-to-door or donate money to your party: 1000$, or 100$ or 10$. If you don’t have cash, donate your time.

It does over here and if you are older than 60.
- Comment on I was there... 2 weeks ago:
The reach of a printed phone book is obviously very limited, if compared to the globally accessibility of only data.
- Comment on If trump is really implicated in Epsteins pedo-ring what is your theory as to why this wasn't leaked by an opposition leader? 2 weeks ago:
Isn’t that always the case? Take eg JFK - this president was an enormous womanizer, but only 10,20 years ago people (eg his old security staff) dared to speak up. However: that doesn’t mean nothing happened , as the old saying goes: when there’s smoke, there’s fire.
- Comment on Saving for the future 2 weeks ago:
I suggest all of you still save for the future - seriously.

- Comment on If I publish my memoir and wrote about every bad thing people did to hurt me while the people mentioned are still alive, how much trouble could I get in? 3 weeks ago:
In many civilized countries the names of criminals are not published, the reason is to protect family (especially offspring, spouse) from harassment by the press and overeager civilians. Several studies showed this does work.

Here some ideas. You could be sued, but what is equally bad is that they might take revenge in some other way, everybody has a weak spot, and they can find it. Why would you want to hurt these people anyway, time has passed. The best revenge is to not mention them at all, especially for big egos being ignored is the worse punishment. As long as you write about facts, they can’t sue, e.g. this guy fired me may be fine (if factually 100% true), but he seduced my boyfriend is tricky (it may be true, but hard to proof /disproof). You may consider changing all the names, places etc, and turn it into a book of fiction.
