11·3 months agoI thought the same, Trump might actually be a good thing for Europe in the long run.
Imagine if the US just played nice with Europe for another 30 years, and got us even more dependant on their payment systems and cloud providers, and only then someone like Trump came along.
We’d have our hands completely tied, where as now with some effort we can still dig ourselves out of US dependency
11·3 months agoYea that’s what creators go with on YouTube to feed the algorithm, the content is quite good though.
veratasium made a good video about this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2xHZPH5Sng
Fantastic news, the more of these we have the easier it becomes
Yea I get that, the same is true where I’m from. Only a lucky few of us have the option to move if we want to, are willing to make the sacrifices and put in the effort.
Sell your car, and buy a plane ticket plus your first months accommodation, that’s what I did. In much of Europe you don’t need a car, where in the US that’s not true.
IDK, look I’m not saying it’s easy at all, moving continents is a very difficult thing trust me I know. Sadly many good things don’t come easy.
One thing living in the EU has taught me is how valuable Work Life Balance is. Where I’m from working overtime, being burnt out and not having job security is normal.
You have no idea how nice it is to have 25 days paid leave each year, full job security and basically never having to work overtime.
I would pick that over a 30% higher salary any day of the week. Work to Live, don’t Live to Work.
If I could do it from Africa for a better life, I’m sure Americans can do it from a first world country.
It’s definitely not easy leaving everything you ever knew behind to live on a different continent but The Pro’s are Healthcare, Employee Rights, Stability, Safety etc. so it’s so worth it for many.
Moving from US to EU seems like such an obvious choice. You gain healthcare, employee rights, walk-able cities etc.
EU Made Simple (the creator of the video above) made a video about Immigration. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W2b5z1FJTs8
I mostly agree with it, if we follow this model it will stop a lot of people moving far-right

Would be nice if they added Social Media in there
aka.
Reddit --> PieFed
Brave of you to use AI on Lemmy
You’ll probably het down voted because of the AI = Bad mentality here.
Even though you’ve used it in a useful way to provide a transcript, which if people read instead of watching the video would probably save electricity
Why would a fridge even require filters?
If you can drink the tap water and it’s for the ice then you probably don’t need the filters.
Look up the name of the filters if possible, you would likely be able to find it online elsewhere.
Well done, it’s a marathon not a sprint, These small victories add up.
Also using EU alternatives also helps local businesses, or alternatives.
Fantastic to see, I’m a big fan of Nextcloud
I hope the EU also implements its own payment system, the more options the better.
Great to see, the more big institutions do this, the easier it becomes for others to follow.
