I don't see it as a bad thing
That's a bold statement to make when so called "free" and "democratic" nations are taking the left lane towards authoritarianism, doing a mass grab of medical data and are attacking encrypted communication on a weekly basis.

It does sound paradoxal at first but is actually quite logical. The person without a PHD enters the corporate market at a younger age with a lesser degree. He has an easier access because he can get paid less and is more accepting of more menial tasks. PHD candidates are older, expect higher salaries due to their higher education, but actually have less corporate experience. That's why the article is calling for a better preparation to work outside of academia jobs

Never thought I'd see Tunisia mentioned as a beacon of democracy and/or progressiveness. It's just as oppressive there, just in the opposite direction. People are getting harrassed by police for going to friday prayers. Establishments seat you in the back for wearing headscarves, if you even get to enter. Source: got family there

That's the issue tho. Are tips earned money or just a bonus? Many countries, including my own, are saying that, as an employee, you get a wage that is taxable, and tips that aren't, because they're an optional bonus from a client, that have absolutely nothing to do with your wage. The "tips are part of your income" thing you do is a uniquely american tradition.

"I don't think there is any European country that would arrest Netanyahu,"
Anyone not complying with the ICC arrest warrant not only deletigimitizes the ICC, but also makes themselves complicit in a genocide. This is literally criminal.
Why should I follow any laws anymore if my leadership takes a massive dump on the most important ones?

I wholly support deeming any form of racism or bigotry unacceptable in a civilized society. The issues comes with fairly enforcing measures like the one proposed here. Who decides whats antisemetic and what isn't? Germany has been severly cracking down on any form of protest against the fascist regime of Israel and their genocide against Gaza. These protests are already being called antisemtic by the media and the government.

Electricity isn't a given during an emergency tho. I think the focus is on non perishables

That's really good advice actually, thanks. And under the bed like the other guy said isn't impossible either.

That's cool and all, but where do I put all this shit. I live in a 3 room 60m² apartment with my family of four because of the insane rent. I literally do not have space to hord anything.

Same here. My country is a lot more analog, so everything from bills to ads still gets delivered via mail regularly. But I would love to have a digital infrastructure for mail delivery. However the costs to make it secure and private seem too high, every attempt by the state to make progress on that gets shut down due to concerns and therefore lack of adoption. Additionally, with the rise of the right and looming threats to your privacy, like chat control, a lot of people have no trust whatsoever in the government

Are there any danes here, that could chime in? The idea of having an almost entirely digitized society feels so scary to me. Everything having mobile apps, no cash? Feels like a horror story given the implications on privacy. I couldn't even run most of the the so called secure apps on my lineageOS. My bank knowing exactly when I payed how much money for what would be so dystopian to me. Are there other methods available to protect your privacy in Denmark? Or does there truly not anyone give a shit about their digital footprint?

Jesus fuck that's scary. I thought we europeans would need to fend of Russia in the near future. Now it might be the USA as well.

He might be right. Maybe the russians should leave Ukraine the fuck in peace to avoid that
