More like that they probably are too young to have bought a home earlier. All people in their 20s (and I think we make a large percentage of Lemmy users) simply have to cope and buy some overpriced home regardless.

👍 in Europe earthquakes luckily are less of a concern, so we care more about longevity (you’ll find many places where pretty much every house is well over a hundred years old (the oldest one in my village is about 900 years old)) and good isolation (to keep the heat inside in winter and outside in summer so we can heat less / don’t have to use air conditioning on our way to net zero)

You can write down an infinite amount of numbers without ever leaving [0, 1]

Oh it’s a term linked to that industry…

But I suppose average people will not know of that meaning, so it’s a perfectly fine brand name (I also still don’t know what it means but know enough to know that I don’t want to know it)

What’s wrong with this?

I guess they might be appropriate for some roads (in poor or very rural countries)

But not here

I know, but they belong to VW and at least back then used Audi engines (which also belongs to VW)

Older German cars also are great. My Skoda from ~2000 is still going strong (never had any issues) and I also see a lot of other older VW/Skoda around (also Audi, Mercedes and BMW but those are more expensive). Don’t know what it’s like today but at that time at least Skodas got the exact same engines as Audis, just not as beautiful bodies.

Can’t comment on modern German cars, they haven’t passed the test of time yet.

Consider a motorcycle instead of a backup car ;)

That social pressure sure does a lot in the USA. In Austria for example iOS sits at 17.8% (July 2024) despite being a rich country.

Since none of Apple’s native services are being used the only upside of Apple products is their out-of-the-box neatless communication (MacBook-iPhone) and not being able to do much (this is an upside for old people who want to have as little options as possible, like they did on their old flip telephones). Accordingly, iPhones are very popular among people who only ever use their phones for photos and communication, which is a small percentage (as the statistic shows).

Most people simply care for what their phone can do (screen, camera, battery life, speed, customisability, software availability, bang-for-buck), for the camera it’s a tie (iPhones still win for videos, Android flagships win for photos) and in all other points Android wins, leading to its 70% market share.

They are expected to have between 25 and 30 percent*

And usually prognosises tend to value them higher than they end up, so I guess we can expect them to get around 25%. Plenty of space for other parties to form a coalition.

For the USA, yes, but there are other countries too where democracy still kinda works

You’re literally calling yourself France too…
