You most likely are arguing with a right winger from Spain. They compare the president with a dictator in their right wing media, and they basically talk about Spain like is Venezuela at every opportunity.
You can put "for Mac" in a turd and it'll reach front page in a day.
Re:Bulgaria joins euro area from 1 January on Thursday January 01, 2026 @06:16PM (#46459283)
I totally agree with you, but is not just the progressive views on gay marriage on the EU that are at risk, is any progressive thinking. There's a wave of right wing backward thinking around the EU, and we keep adding more countries like Hungary.
Re:Bulgaria joins euro area from 1 January on Thursday January 01, 2026 @06:14PM (#46459260)
This doesn't make sense. We're admitting another Hungary in our club, and this is not going to end well. Any progressive vote is going to be blocked by those countries, and we're going to be paying money to them to vote our way as we are doing now with Hungary.

If someone goes to that meaning instead of the simple one "to eat", as in carnivore, herbivore it seams that maybe someone has bigger problems that disliking a RSS reader for the name.

Re:Mac keyboard shortcuts on Friday August 07, 2020 @07:26AM (#24080730)
In this forum you're going to get very very downvoted with anything that goes against Apple.

Let's see.

Unix - Ctrl + c

Linux - Ctrl + c

Win - Ctrl + c

Mac - Option + c

Clearly the standard and natural way is the Apple way of doing things...

Re:Mac keyboard shortcuts on Friday August 07, 2020 @07:24AM (#24080717)
I seriously doubt it...

https://unicheck.com/blog/who-invented-copy-and-paste

"The person most widely credited with Copy and Paste, Larry Tesler, did work for Apple starting in 1980. However, he created the command while working for Xerox Palo Alto Research Center at some point between 1973-1976 "

So, the Ctrl + c was BEFORE the Apple way.

It sounds like a test for a future space weapon. Something that, anyone correct me if I'm wrong, it's banned right now. They sell it as a new energy source and that way they circumvent the ban.

Copenhagen : 602,481 Stockholm : 974,073

Still no comparable, but whatever, it seems you got your own opinion.

Re:How Europe sleepwalked into the coronavirus crisis on Thursday April 02, 2020 @08:16AM (#22758163)
Yeah, the worst by far...

I don't know where are you taking your data from but it seems a bit skewered.

"While the countries have very different population/area ratio their capitals Copenhagen/Oslo/Stockholm are comparable."

I would say not even close....

Population:

Oslo .. 673,469 -- Barcelona .. 5.515 million -- Madrid 6.55 million --

Population density:

Oslo .. 3,500 people per square kilometer -- Barcelona .. 16,000 people per square kilometer -- Madrid .. 5,400 people per square kilometer -- `

It's like the numbers in China. Who the fu--- believes that a country with 1.4 billion people and that had no previous knowledge of the virus ( like the rest of the countries ) has less contagions and deaths than USA, EU or any other country.
Re:How Europe sleepwalked into the coronavirus crisis on Thursday April 02, 2020 @07:36AM (#22757964)
Germany started later, wait a few weeks and we will talk then. Spain was pretty good too when Italy was already in the hundreds of deaths.

England is looking far better than Spain and Italy NOW, but I will bet that the contagions and deaths are going to be higher ( proportionally speaking ) in a couple of months.

Re:How Europe sleepwalked into the coronavirus crisis on Thursday April 02, 2020 @06:57AM (#22757766)
As the other comment already said you're comparing apples and oranges. If you take some regions of Spain that has around the same population of Denmark for example they're more or less at the same level of Denmark. Most of the contagions in Spain are in Madrid.

You're kidding right?. Apple put so much serious R&D into the display that they asked Samsung to create it.

No it doesn't. Buy means, it's yours, and in the future it will be still be yours. "Subscribe" or "Subscription" probably would be a more exact term. "Now it's yours but in the future who knows".

Education?. Really?.

"Regarding Europe’s other large countries, the proportions were 47.1% for Britain, 31.9% in Germany (which retains a strong tradition of technical education), 43.6% in France, 40.1% in Spain and 39.1% in Poland."

If you have such a huge knowledge how come you haven't mentioned a particular HUGE difference between Spain and Yugoslavia. In Yugoslavia one of the main reasons of the war and secession was RELIGION, in Spain there's no such clash between muslims and catholics.
Re:Spanish police raid .Cat domain name registry offices on Friday September 22, 2017 @01:14PM (#15313983)
Also, no one had said here that the actual Catalan government didn't completely won the popular vote. They were quite benefit by the D'Hondt method.
