Yes, I somehow mixed all things up when I read the article and I got confused about government agencies of NK issuing warnings about misinformation.

I know. Too much internet, half asleep. My phone should have a lock on me posting silly stuff when I’m that condition.

Friggin’ downvotes on a serious question? I hope it brought some relief, you gentle egos.

I thought the article mentioned North Korean press but apparently it’s about South Korean press.

Does NK have free press?

USPCC only makes for a fourth of Cartamundi’s revenue. And to make it even more Belgian, Cartamundi is still run by the same two families that founded the company 6 generations ago Each family owns 50% of the shares.

ING Turkey ≠ ING Netherlands ≠ ING anywhere else

Billiard balls and playing cards. Belgium is world leader in both.

Edit: forgot to add pigeons. Belgian competition pigeons are the most expensive in the world.

Edit 2: Belfries. Clock-O-Matic is a Belgian company and world leader in the automation of Belfries. It’s not that hard because most Belfries are located in Belgium and France, if not all of them.

Edit 3: It never ends. Roller coaster wheels. Let that sink in. No their country produces more roller coaster wheels nor is as good as we arr at it.

Element X is fast Indeed.

There are more cool organisations that use Element.

• US navy
• US space force
• French government
• German defence force

It’s more a Skype alternative at the moment though.

Only losers in this war. Russians being used as canon fodder. So many sons and brothers that are lost. Ukrainians feeling deserted by their allies. Those wounds heal slowly.

Because of how languages evolved. But my male neighbour still is a midwife.

Same in Dutch but ‘‘student(e)’’ is generally accepted.

I’m not saying it’s social media, but it’s social media. You’re connected to negativity 24/7. The algorithm feeds on negativity because that is what makes us stay on there.

I’ve got something to change your thinking. At least it helped me 17 years ago.

I don’t want to dismiss the facts. There are terrible things going on but overall we’re living our best lives at the same time.

And hey! I’m 43 too. You have a whole life ahead of you. You still can go in any direction you want to go in.

You’re a poet, my friend.

In junior high we got low alcohol beer at lunch.

By default in our country. You have to unregister if you don’t want it.

I’m still a bit confused about the instances and the political alignment of people on certain instances. I’m on Lemmy.ml but apparently people can be quite toxic on that instance.

Having to subscribe to the same subject on different instances feels a bit weird. I always wonder what I’m missing out on.

It also seems like we’re missing some critical mass but I’m over Reddit, that’s the bottom line.
