That's great to read. I've used Windows for years for music production and recording, due to lot's of audio interfaces which performed best on Windows than on Mac and Linux.
In lot's of recording studio I went, they almost always have Windows with Cubase in a case of something wrong with Mac and Pro Tools.
After trying to school me about my country, you know try to school me about my own family...
My great-father fought against France during the war in 60s.
My mother grew up during the algerian civil war.
One of the refugee I had at home was reduced in slavery in 2015 (he was 17).
You want a time when humans were less racist ? Well.. I don't know.. Perhaps few years ago when far-right racist parties in Europe made up less than 30% in votes.
> If anyone feels negative, I recommend seeing a psychologist. There is no reason for anyone not to feel exceptionally optimistic about the future these days!
This is your point and I don't agree.
Saying things are the best they've been is wrong. Things are the best for you. Not for "the vast majority of us". It is the best for the small minority. And no. It's not improving every day.
In my first comment, I posted links with number of slaves all around the world and migrants dying, growing year after year.
Please, understand that while you feel optimistic, the majority of us, don't. Saying that we should see a psychologist is just rude. It seems that you are unable to understand other people feelings, thus, I would recommend you to see a psychologist.
Have you ever tried to seek for basic rights and support for migrants in EU ?
I help lot's of immigrants in France. I'm always told that France is very generous and that it's easy to have healthcare, easy to go to a doctor for free.
Yet, in my experience, it's horribly difficult and expensive.
Thank you for schooling me. I'll tell my family in Algeria that they should be happy to live in the most comfortable and democratic time in all of human History and tell them to see a psychologist.
I'll also tell the refugees I host at home for free(taking legal risks), that they should be happy to have access to the best education and best technology.
Perhaps I should go to therapy indeed. I'm sure the police will stop harassing me due to my skin color. I'll tell them that I'm the 1%.
You sound like you're from EU, well, there are plenty of Syrians, maybe you should try to talk to some of them. It's cheaper than a psychologist.
Ah yes ! You should have said that to the 10 000 people who died while trying to migrate to another country, due to drone wars, financial crisis and climate change. [1]
And you should also have said that to the Congolese children who died while mining for the natural resources used to produce components for the AI datacenters.
And yes, the future we're living in is wonderful for the 50 millions slaves all around the world to build things we don't really need. [2]
Perhaps they should have seen a psychologist. When we'll lose our jobs due to AI, we'll all have plenty of time to go to psychologist, indeed.
Yes, a union is a way to gather forces, not only in your company, but also in broader spaces. It's easier for a union (even of two) to ask to meet your local elected officials, to seek legal support, advices from other union.
If you make electronic music using only virtual instruments and effects, it's ok.
But if you play live, record live bands with lot's of mics and need to use physical hardware. Neither Mac nor Linux are an option.
Indeed, it is ethnic cleansing.
This situation isn't unique at all. Actually, it's quite common in History. The same happened to Algeria with the French colonization.
> So are the vast majority of Israelis, coming from Arab countries, not Zionist?
Yes, they are. Being a European movement doesn't mean non-european cannot be zionist.
Fascism is also a European movement as it emerged in Italy.
> When is a migration of people to a land isn't colonization
When there are no settlements, no oppression of indigenous people, no land exploitation, no discrimination law made by the colonizer.
It's not "in my book", it's in every books not made by a colonizer.
I never mentioned jews and the point remains : It is untrue to say that Hamas started everything on 7th of oct and it is untrue to say that they were the first.
Stop diverting attention from the causes of what happened.
It's not a secret. It started in the 80s and lasted until they won the election in 2005. It's not a conspiracy theory, this is History. Official History everyone one agrees on, even israel and Hamas themselves.
