Europe@feddit.org•Is VAT straightforward in Europe than USA?English
2·2 days agoYes, but I’m talking about regular stores. Not the kind that you visit for office supply and such. If you’re aren’t a business owner, you never have to think about VAT.

81·2 days agoThat sounds great! I love OnlyOffice, but it feels a bit iffy with their supposed connection to the Russian military. I hope this will be free for personal use.

Europe@feddit.org•Is VAT straightforward in Europe than USA?English
3·2 days agoSure, but regular stores don’t have such listings. Everything is VAT included.

Europe@feddit.org•Iran allows Spanish ships to use the Strait of Hormuz for freeEnglish
2·3 days agoYes, there were some protests around that. I’m talking about the time leading up to that; it was as if you couldn’t criticize USA because we all had to “stick together in a time of crisis” (this was more or less verbatim what our politicians said here in Sweden).
(I do agree about the Zelensky treatment, though. Fuck Vance and his cohort all the way to hell and back.)

3·3 days agoThe thing with Bush was that a large number of people here in EU despised him and was sick of the US’s continual involvement in international affairs. There were protests when he visited, and a big movement opposed him wherever he went. That lasted until 9/11, at which point US became the big victim, and all critics went silent.

Programming@programming.dev•Should I teach students who doesn't know computer science C or JavaScript first?English
0·6 days agoI wouldn’t say that pointers and memory allocation is a good thing to start with. I teach programming to students with no prior experience, and sometimes it’s hard to even get them to grasp basic programming in Python. At least in the beginning. You have to start slow.
Yep. Vivaldi is the shit.
I would say that a large community distro has most longevity of all variants. It doesn’t matter if some leave, others will join. It also doesn’t matter that the distro ain’t making profit, because it isn’t a company.

13·17 days agoOne would think they’d be extra careful not to piss the users off at this point… but no.

Yep, I got a site wide ban for wishing a missile strike on Putin. “Threat of violence”… as if it was something that I threatened to do :/
