I hope you also can get out of the rat race when you feel you had enough. :) For me I just got sick of it at 50.
- Comment on jobaphobia 3 days ago:
In dollars, about 500.000. So if stocks go up 1%, thats 5000 dollars.
My monthly costs are about half of that. So im thinking it should work out fine. Its a risk of course, but its not a huge risk to take. I think its going to be fine.
- Comment on jobaphobia 3 days ago:
Like the previous poster said, there is a whole world out there where this sort of thing is very cheap.
In the west, everything is very expensive simply because people have the money to pay that much for it. We are working our entire lives with temporary relief now and then with overpriced alcohol. It sucks.

Most of the content here is from twitter, so yeah…
- Comment on Born into crisis, gen Z is saving for retirement like no other generation 1 week ago:
I think it makes sense. Save all you can, get out of the 9-5 as soon as you can. America in particular has turned insane, and they have a lot of influence on the western world and the global economy unfortunately.
Look out for ourselves, best you can.
- Comment on Tesla's European car sales nosedive for fifth month as customers switch to Chinese EVs 2 weeks ago:
I think it also has to do with the economy, not just nazi salutes. Its a bad job market, people dont have money, so luxary cars are not going to be attractive.
Also there is hardly any reason to buy a Tesla… Volvo recharge and others are better cars, made by actual car companies with a reputation they care about.
- Comment on Who knows... 3 weeks ago:
I saw it on tv news yesterday and I was just so sad that this is what we have now as a president. Switched channels quickly, no point being depressed. But its just sad.
- Comment on Shooting an unarmed woman who was just trying to walk home: just LAPD things 4 weeks ago:
Used to be only black people being treated like this. Now we have equality!
- Comment on Why do so many people delete their posts? 5 weeks ago:
Ok I understand. There is no way someone connect what you write here with your ip. Only your instance even sees your ip.
- Comment on Why do so many people delete their posts? 5 weeks ago:
You shouldnt. Post and be downvoted. As long as you are not intentionally trolling anyone, it shows strength of character to stand up for what you believe.
Its very different from work where you are not free to do what you want, because your entire paycheck is based on going along with the charade. You dont have to do that outside of work. :)
- Comment on Why do so many people delete their posts? 5 weeks ago:
You dont use your real name on Lemmy so I dont see why your history matters here. I could understand it on linkedin, which is why its a super cringe platform also, but here? I dont see a problem.
- Comment on Calm down 1 month ago:
Emotionally mature women do calm down. It just depends on the level of trust she has in what you say.
If you are known to her as someone she trusts and listens to, then she will consider if you are right and start to calm down if she thinks you are.
But it depends a bit on age and maturity and life experiences and all sorts of things.
- Comment on The Daily Wire is now trying to pass off AI slop as actual footage from Palestine. 1 month ago:
Spread information about it. Use those shitty big tech social networks to constantly post and show people what is possible. At least then they can be fairly useful instead of chatting about what Trump or Musk or Zuck decided to say today to get their daily attention drug.
- Comment on Trump says a 25% tariff "must be paid by Apple" on iPhones not made in the US, says he told Tim Cook long ago that iPhones sold in the US must be made in the US 1 month ago:
Thats hilarious as usual when it comes to Trump. :)
- Comment on French police dismantle widespread paedophilia network hidden on Telegram 1 month ago:
The suspects – aged 25 to 75 – come from a wide range of backgrounds. They include a priest, a grandfather, a music teacher, a paramedic and others described as “good family men”.
Every. Fucking. Time.

Maybe he is not a teenager anymore… :)
- Comment on France’s new laser rifle silently melts electronics at 500 meters — and Ukrainian infantry could really use it 1 month ago:
Its funny because humans see themselves as very smart, but they built a society where everyone has to work all day to pay their bills, because fantasy “money” is seen as a real thing despite just existing inside computer programs.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
Why do people want to ask complete strangers instead of making their own decision?
That must mean that they value the opinion of total strangers more then their own. Isnt that a mindfuck.
- Comment on Trump administration fires US Copyright Office head Shira Perlmutter; her office had raised concerns about using copyrighted content to train AI 2 months ago:
And then you are fired if that sales guy is actually running the show. Politics…

- Comment on Are We All Becoming More Hostile Online? 2 months ago:
You know, there oneliners may sound cool when you are a teenager, but they are signs of a mind who thinks in absolutes, because there is no wisdom yet.
It will come through life and getting older. :)
- Comment on Are We All Becoming More Hostile Online? 2 months ago:
How did you try being nice? You have a war on everything… Drugs, freedom, privacy… Im honestly not sure how you see yourself as being nice…
High road? Im also not sure how you took the high road. Im genuinely interested, maybe my perspective here is completely wrong.
- Comment on Are We All Becoming More Hostile Online? 2 months ago:
The only problem is that you guys call everyone a transphone or homophobe or liberal or whatever, all the time. Its actually a bit funny because you dont see the forest for the trees. Everyone has to think exactly the same or they are THE ENEMY and need to be keyboard warriored into compliance with right-think :)
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 2 months ago:
I was talking about reddit alternatives with quality mobile apps, not fediverse apps in general.
In that category i didnt know any besides Lemmy, but ok, piefed is worth checking out. But which mobile app has the quality of Sync?
And yes, im aware that some part of the donations may go to the Lemmy.ml instance but I also believe that developers need to have a decent salary. So its not strange that 1000 dollars per month is not nearly enough to live on. But people just ignore that and focus on not supporting lemmy.ml because they dont like the political views of the developers.
But yeah I will check out piefed. Its good with more alternatives, specially written in easy languages like python, since rust is very difficult to contribute to.
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 2 months ago:
Well, we will see. It would be stupid if Lemmy died because the users couldnt accept the opinions of two little devs, but sure, it may happen.
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 2 months ago:
Weight classes to take care of body differences? Those are to take care of body differences in the same gender! Lols.
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 2 months ago:
The original post on lemmy.ml by the creator of Lemmy had a lot more details, so maybe just link to that one?
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 2 months ago:
Well I dont pick those opinions to please you, so… :)
- Comment on Vitamin technology has advanced so much over the years 2 months ago:
Yeah very much. Now its about profits, so quality goes down and price goes up. Modern farming.
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 2 months ago:
Yeah? I dont agree its transphobic to want women to still be competetive in the sports they are competing in. And thats my opinion.
