The European Union is due on Wednesday to publish draft rules that give legal underpinnings for a digital euro, if the European Central Bank decided to issue one in coming years.
Could somebody maybe ELI5 this? I don't get it, I haven't used cash in over a decade, what's the difference with the digital euro and... Normal non-cash transactions? Alternatively, how will this screw us over and make things more expensive? Thanks!
There's a kbin userstyle for PC (do they exist for mobile?) that gives you a sidebar of your subscribed magazines that groups them from different instances! You still have to find them first though.
I read the Handmaid's Tale yesterday, finally. I'm disappointed. I did not like the writing style at all, there was no real story, just descriptions. And then it just ended. No conclusion or anything....
You make a good point, abuse of women is normalised. I think in this particular case (book vs show), the show was a lot more visceral, whereas in my opinion it was kinda of 'glossed over' in the book. It might be part of the writing style - I usually read books in first person, so it's like you are the character. This story was written so detached, I didn't feel much for anyone.
I wrote a quick manual for some friends trying to leave reddit and get their saved stuff, maybe it'll help someone else as well. Feel free to point out any mistakes, I'm by no means an expert.
Boobytraps. Rumours about a curse/ghosts/entry fee. Pretend there's something boring in there. Allow entry, but make the process the full force of German bureaucracy (you need to file form A on a blood moon, to get form A, you need document B2, no not that one the green one, you can get it from Location C but that's only open once a month for half an hour, and if you don't wear pink they won't help you).
I've been looking as well but haven't found anything yet. I considered starting /m/imaginarynetwork (would be cool to have it as an instance, and the the different subs as their own magazines!) but I'm a little scared of modding.
Despite everything I hope they stay on reddit too, I have an automatic phone background changer that pulls new pics from the imaginary subs every 30 minutes 😅
Have more than one interest/hobby! I can't imagine doing the same for months on end with no alternative. I naturally gravitate to a monthly rotation (not consciously, just kinda happens) of high interest in something, and then there's a few things I do whenever (read a book when I have a few minutes here or there, do some cross stitching while watching my husband play a game, etc).
To give a concrete example of a job* where you're doing all the things all the time (at least in my experience) is office manager at a start up company. It doesn't sound glorious, but it's super varied!
I currently do, among things I'll forget to mention :
invoicing and payments
basic accounting
hr
day to day office running (making sure we have supplies, watering the plants, organising lunch, answering operational questions)
set up and maintain the company knowledge database and teach people how to use it
same for client database
event planning (fairs, team building, company parties)
organise courses and learnings
research
agenda keeping for the CEO
man the phone
random things that you can't really pin down like remind people to clean their desk (we don't have a cleaning service), run to the supermarket because it's hot and the boss is buying us ice cream, give info to new employees moving to the country on where to buy the best coffee)
It's never boring and also not stressful (for me, I thrive on organising thing).
*I don't know if this is a career. Personally I just want to go to work, work, go home and get paid to have money to do the things I like. I don't need fancy new title or promotions that come with more responsibilities and stress.

I need this for a book I'm writing. A lot of people know about the existence of the room I'm talking about, but almost nobody has access to it.
Anyone know if the r/Imaginary* subreddits are planning on migrating?
Couldn't find any posts talking about the API changes on those subs, but there are like 50 of them so I might've just missed it...
