Don’t have to measure in inches or farenheit ever again.
I would love to fully switch to metric. But Canada still uses hours in distance, so there’s not much hope.
Like everyone on the globe?
Move to Europe, because US ditches science.
For any US-refugee still hesitating to jump continent… A lot of Europe also comes with
- Great (and affordable) food, no obligation anymore to eat that over-processed shit so many shops in the US dare call food.
- Great (and affordable) healthcare,
- Decent housing,
- Much better (and affordable) public transit.
- Not all as great as they once used to be, we can still offer you quite a few great schools to educate your kids, a lot of them not being that expensive either.
- Also, no matter where in the EU, quite a few Europeans will happily speak English with you, at least if you show you’re not too afraid yourself to start learning our own native languages ;)
It means new opportunities in Europe. If you live in the US, it might be interesting to know that many master studies in countries like Germany are given in English and have extremely low tuition.
Work/life balance, healthcare and public transport are all better as well.Even Germany beats America in public transport and that already was a low bar
It shockingly (not) means that in line with US praised capitalism principles, we have healthy competition rather than anti capitalism based giant monopolies.
I dunno, the latter is exactly how capitalism is ‘supposed’ to work.
It is not capitalism but through liberation from it, that we will be able to find a healthy society.
I completely agree. I tried to use the capitalism / market argument, but forgot momentarily, where I was posting.
Good.
I’m currently working on repatriating my tech use to European applications so my data is protected by their stronger regulations. I made a video about it on my YT channel if anyone’s interested in learning more on the topic.
