I have a B60 in my ProxMox machine explicitly for their SR-IOV Support, I also got gaming to run on a Windows VM. Have not yet tried LLMs, but I plan to.

I can throw South Tyrol into the mix. It’s italian territory, but most of the population speaks a bavarian (german) dialect, it’s culturally very Austrian (used to be Austria until end of WW1) and is very geographically beautiful. It’s also a rich province and I think teacher’s pay is also decent, but can also be expensive compared to other places in Italy.

The people can be strange and seem secluded, but I would say we are generally open-hearted and friendly. Catholicism is, however, like everywhere in the Alpine region, a big part of the culture, but most participate only for those reasons and I never experienced any sexuality motivated hate. Fun fact: my elementary school religion (!) teacher out themselfs to us as lesbian, and years later they transitioned and a’were still teaching there (however, different subjects).

The school system is a bit weird also: there are german schools, where italian is tought as a second language, and vice versa. English is part of both schools types. There are few private schools (I went to one of those, they have to still conform with teaching curricula etc.) and afaik the qualifications for teachers are more relaxed there; they usually filter applicants on a more individual basis.

Similar situation in South Tyrol (an province at the border to Austria): the german-speaking minority (who is the majority in the province) primarily uses italian curse words. A theory I once read trying to explain this is that you hope that God is less likely to notice you when you curse in a different language.

I would imagine that this has similar root causes like Italian in South Tyrol. About 100 years ago in an attempt to forcefully italianize the german-speaking Tyroleans the fascists moved a lot of italians from all over Italy into South Tyrol, resulting in a very clean italian (somewhat “high-italian”) being spoken there, opposed to the various regional dialects all over Italy. The clean language is a more common ground between everyone, so it makes sense to default to that (and is a lot closer to the language foreigners learn)

Hosted on GitLab… the irony

the simplest answer is language and cultural barries which form some sense of individual nationalistic identity many (especially older) people are not ready to give up yet.

In addition to that, many states treat and market to their citizens the EU as a burden that just imposes strict regulations and gives money to the others (e.g. Greece). They obviously neglect to inform their citizens of all the positive stuff and profits we get from a strong Union. And, consequentually, popular politicians don’t see the EU as a higher stepping stone, if they are well established in their country. In the EU Parliament you mostly have lesser known local politicians and those, who the established local parties wanted to get rid of (in Brussels they are far away from any local government decision).

genau dieses ist mir letzte Woche passiert, ich dachte das ist inzwischen eine Sache der dunklen Vergangenheit, aber ja… PSA wenn ihr mal ein Führungszeugnis online beantragt auf www.fuehrungszeugnis.bund.de kein Passwort länger als 16-20 Zeichen eingeben.

Warum sie nicht eine zentrales Benutzerkonto einbinden wie, sagen wir mal, die Bund ID, z.B., oder die eID als Login, weil man sie ja eh schon braucht dafür, keine Ahnung. IT des Bundes oder so…

besonders bitter, wenn das Samstag abends passiert.

The reason for the dark storied in the original fairy tales is to teach a lesson, to stand as a warning for children intimidated by them. There is so much educational content in them which Disney cut out, stripping the tales from their original purpose. That’s (one of the reasons) why I hate Disney.

Don’t you have a student council in America you can complain to about such stuff? From my experience studying in Germany (and even more so in Austria) the student council (oder student union) has very good connections to the administrative and scientific staff to pass feedback along and also get invited to (mandatory for the Uni) semesterly quality-assessment-circles to assess the “studibility” of the program, which also includes evaluating such processes.
