how does one respond to that

@epi heyyy thank you for the warm welcome I hope we will get along well ❤

what do roles stand for, is there, like, a faq, or something?

@ÜltraÜberGöttKönig so I'm restricted from posting pics? The rules don't seem to really clarify the role stuff.

Do colors get assigned randomly or stand for something meaningful?

$color set #1F85DE

@rogalik oi

@rogalik thanks, I'll tell a bit later once I get familiar with the server

@ÜltraÜberGöttKönig it's my favourite color, a bit darker than one on the top stripe of the Estonian flag and more saturated than on the Arch logo

@ストーリーライター hello!

nah I still messed it up a bit

@rogalik didn't quite catch that, I had the Arch linux distribution in mind

@rogalik I stopped using Arch linux in 2012, after they messed up /usr/ (does discord support markdown, btw?) and pulverized their ncurses installer, and then, after they dropped out BSD style initialization, I could nothing but forget about it forever

@epi you can always set up whatever fonts you like, guess you're pretty much aware of that

@rogalik it's more about the BSD style init itself, it was pleasant to configure and it worked generally quite smoothly

@epi font rendering in the blink engine does differ on various platforms indeed, sadly

@rogalik speaking for desktops users, there shouldn't be much issue with systemd as it works fine, but among linux users, preferences play huge role, and one's free to rant on whatever doesn't fit one's religious beliefs

@rogalik estonian

@rogalik it's totally fine you don't seem to accept dogmatism or irrational preferenes in software

as long as it works, everything is fine

I thought mentioning will point at the specific message, sorry for abusing it

@ÜltraÜberGöttKönig Hurd from Scratch is the only option for grown up men

change my mind

that's a somewhat Polish thing to say

by measuring how much pyrys you can eat in a minute?

@rogalik especially in the HIV rates and social security non-existence

@rogalik pyry is not just potatoes

Estonia's (II republic) first leaders in the 90s were basically libertarian, a lot of people from their elite even are members of some US libertarian organizations, like Mart Laar

@epi you can do everything online even in the most backward shitholes of Europe

@epi yet you probably have access to 99% of government services in the Internet

@epi you're always free to enjoy a 1200€ brutto monthly salary then

with a rent rate of a small apartment of 700€ and 200€ additionally for central heating

or renting an old unrenovated apartment in Russian areas for 500€, but be ready for your head to be hit with an empty glass bottle

I wasn't speaking about myself

and I specified it's brutto wage

luckily, taxes in Estonia are one of the lowest in Europe

the prices are much higher than in the rest of Eastern Europe

thanks to euro

heard recently KE wants to boost Poland's entrance in the euro zone

hope Poles will be wise enough not to fall in this misery

the introduction of euro in the Baltic states rapidly made everyone poorer and as these countries didn't really recover from the Great Recession, it slowed their growth even further

can't say anything about Slovakia, though

GDP growth doesn't make you richer

all goods became less affordable at once

^ this

not Western Europe, but Germany specifically

you don't need anything to say

are regular economics alternative now

I specifically stated the introduction to euro made consumer goods less affordable, therefore rendering the population poorer -- whatever GDP growth rates are present, the purchasing power is much more relevant

GDP PPP of Russia and Poland matched before 2014, sometimes Russia even surpassed Poland, yet I don't really need to point out which country was doing better

yet that explanation will be irrelevant in relation to you not being comfortable with my statement about poverty and introduction to euro in Baltic states

simple as

not being aggressive or something

the point was about dynamics of both, my initial statement referred to poverty increasing while GDP continues to grow

the >country (not people) reference was the reason I clarified my statement later

and since then, we were arguing about the warm and the soft

i.e. about essentially different stuff

not sure whether people say something like that outside a certain country

there are obviously numerous different reasons, sometimes non-straightforward as fuck

the introduction of euro is something that can work out for a country, or not -- and the case of Baltic states and quite honestly, Finland, is the latter

no, it's not psychological, the prices in kroon, lats and litas after the introduction did rise up to 25%

@MrJack that before euro time could easily be the crisis in 1989-199x

which hit Finland so hard it haven't recovered to present day

these problems have no relation to the introduction of euro in 2011, 2013, and 2015

in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania respectively

the countries were slowly recovering and people were getting richer, but then, I have to repeat myself, at once, in one night, everything went up to 20% more expensive

already mentioned above, 2011 in Estonia, 2013 in Latvia, 2015 in Lithuania

yes, exactly, said it initially

No.

the wages in their kroon, lats and litas equivalent didn't rise

prices did

relations with their parents > race > personality > feet
