I believe I have read read somewhere depression (or suicide I am not sure) is more common in summer. Which to me seems counter intuitive until I found out the main cause for this might be loneliness. So lonely people seeing other people getting together.

Would you say in your case depression worsens due longer nights or holiday season in December?

I would like to force my Luba 2 robotic mower to mow steeper terrain (almost 45 degrees). The main problem is wheel slipperiness. Current ideas:

• some kind of net in that area for better grip
• making wheels rougher (eg with nails).
• rope that would constantly pull it uphill to counter force of gravity.

Yes of course. For collaboration with current and future remote abroad workers. Also in my country almost everyone speaks English.

I love my now only living grandmother. She is a friend to all of her grandchildren.

When my other grandparents were alive (and I was a child/teenager) our relationships were mostly formal.

Another question. Why does this post have so many down votes? I have some ideas but I am not sure which is the real reason:

1. Asking about generalization could be considered unpopular.
2. Are communists down voting me?
3. Badly written post. (I mean English is not my first language and I do believe lemmy needs more content and I am trying to go out of my comfort zone and be more active user)
4. This topic is just unpopular?

I believe your comments is just a paraphrase of: “They are being stupid”

In my opinion this is a very toxic way of thinking and does not try to understand the arguments “the other side” presents.

Read all my statements again. And apply strict mathematic logic.

Few years of degradation of antitrust laws and some effective reforms in this year alone does not in any way prove your point.

This is simply not true. And whole EU is doing this more or less effectively. But your government has to be very very careful since this sure can happen.

In recent years we have seen degradation of this leash. But EU commission started keeping up with global monopolies.

I believe also in USA they are making some antitrust changes after a few decades of sleeping.

About defending capitalism (and not billionaires - who more often than not abuse this system). Some of us lived in other systems. And we understand any other system is way way way way worse.

There are however a lot of problems with capitalism and should be held on a very short leash. Or else monopoly happens. The most effective actions to keep capitalism at bay: strong anti-trust laws, strong worker protection (this includes a lot of stuff), wealth tax.

And be aware there are many flavours of calitalism. Most commonly people in USA are the most extreme where you have really “long leash”. And people see such capitalism as failing and want to replace whole system.

I find is disturbing for Americans to not understand what socialism is.

There is a reason why socialism was refused in every country it was implemented. Including my own.

Country with social politics is not socialist. And yes I agree in USA you have almost no social rights which is obviously bad for people. For example USA is one of two countries to poor for paid maternity or paternity leave, which is crazy.

I am bald with a beard and glasses. So everyone thinks I am their friend with the same properties and completely different face.

Syncthing for me. It is not cloud though - but better.
