Well, the IT job market can change very quickly, so it is very difficult to predict what the job market will look like when you enter it in around 6 years (I assume that’s how long it will also take in the US to get a Bachelor + Master?). It could be that in 6 years the AI bubble has popped and dumb managers will realize that AI can’t replace every Software Developer.

I’d say go ahead and study CS, and if you can’t find a job as a Software Developer, you can then look in neighboring IT fields, such as System Administrator, where you (for example) have to administrate Linux servers, and since you say you already have experience with this, it should give you an advantage in applications.

That jacket button looks like a nipple in this photograph lol

And MAGAts will somehow turn this into something good. But whereas they would have completely flipped out when gas prices would have risen just one cent under Biden lol.

I thought we are all communists here on Lemmy? So the concept of ownership doesn’t exist and everything belongs to everyone?

Because everything the EU and the rest of the world does is stupid. By adapting things from other countries would be akin to acknowledging that other countries can do some things better than the US. But this can’t be, since the US is Numbaaa 1! /s

Because humans are creatures of habit, and as long as stuff works for them, even suboptimally, a lot of people aren’t inclined to change their habits, even if it might mean a change would improve their lives. As long as sth is “good enough”, there simply isn’t an incentive for change.

Also, since there isn’t a huge corporation behind Linux, there is literally no direct advertisement for it, so people who aren’t into tech simply never will get in touch with it.

I agree that tobacco products should be heavily taxed, but should cigarettes be banned outright? I’m not sure banning is the right way to go, I mean just look at what the prohibition of alcohol back then did. A thriving, unregulated black market. People should be able to buy cigarettes, that way they can be sure of what it is they are smoking.

Just my opinion tho.

How tf are those places still in business, are the majority of people in this area making six figures a year, or what

A lot of food is still safe to consume after it’s expiration date, tho. I think in the US it’s called ‘best by’ or sth like that, underlining that it isn’t necessarily a hard expiration date, just that it tastes the best before this date.

This is very likely form the US where u need to be 21 to buy beer. So even a 20 year old would be a child to you? This is dumb af.

You’re right, edited it, thx.

Kinda ironic how people say we live in a cost of living crisis but then people also have always money at hand to throw it out the window for top level consumerism stuff. People have no self-restraint, do they

Edit: self-restraint, not self-constraint

Y do u collect Linux ISOs?

I think u overlooked what community this was posted in lol

Cos of the Boomer Managers. Boomers are allergic to changes lol

We have $2 gas in germany. But it’s per litre, lol (actually it’s even more expensive, I wish it would ‘only’ be $2 lol)

Boomers, cos they don’t know what else to spend their mountains of cash on lol

So basically most germans won’t be able to play video games then anymore lol

Lol what? I just checked, on eBay I can find a lot of offers between 800 Euros and 1300 Euros for a used RTX 3090. 4-5k would get you a brand new RTX 5090.
