@stux In the US if I meet Dutch people, they're usually professors or experts. I used to think that whole country was full of only smart people. I still think the Netherlands has fewer really uneducated people, so I can't understand why they would support radical politics.

@stux GOP is something between a bully and a class clown who has been hurt in life and now seeks attention in any form, whether for doing something helpful or harmful.

@stux Waarom zeggen ze dat?I've been there, but I always thought if I were Dutch I would be from Groningen. Madison, WI is a college town with a lot of tech, for its size, located in an agricultural region in the north with a somewhat distinctive accent. That's how I imagine Groningen.

@stux Ik begrijp helft ervan om dat ik bijna geen nederlands spreek, maar wat vreemd.Now that we know human actions affect the climate, I think we need to learn to intentionally drive the climate to benefit human interests. It would have been better to reduce greenhouse gas emissions when we first discovered their effect, but so far we have not been able to do that.

@stux I'm not into gaming. Did they actually create a good quality game to promote a scam?

@stux Increasing taxes is a bad idea, IMHO, that is not the same thing as communism.

@RickiTarr Brooks performance in the episode when lived a week as sci-fi writer in the 50s brought me a little closer to understanding what it would be like to live in a society with a caste system undermining me. When Sisko had an outburst of understandable anger at racism at the end of the episode, even his colleagues saw it differently because of his appearance. Brooks made it seem so real. I love #DS9.

@stux One of the few phrases I remember from my Dutch in Three Months: "De elektriciteit kosten zijn inbegrepen." 🧡

@Nonilex "In April, #Trump’s #State Dept upgraded #ElSalvador’s travel advisory to its highest rating, citing a “drop in violent crimes & murders.”Two months after this meeting, which looks like a caricature of politicians doing a corrupt deal.

I'm out of touch in that only last year I learned that #HP calculators are no longer produced. I still use my #33S, but but if I want to replace it, I need to buy one on E-Bay. Apparently handheld calculators with buttons and #RPN are thing of the past. Time flies.
