Medicine still works in europe and is also being developed in europe. Maybe look at how the EU/european countries do it? A lot of it is having regulations. The free market isn't free if the choice between getting the product or not is the difference between life and death.

I like to say that DDG gives you what you searched for while google gives you what it thinks you wanted.

Fellow belgian here.

While I agree with what you wrote here there are some other forms of employment too, which do not get the same protections: student jobs, interim jobs and I think flexijobs.

IIRC, not too long ago there was even quite a fuss about interim jobs being abused for long-term employment without worker protections.

Fun fact: Australia is wider than the diameter of the moon.

I remember hearing that the brain technically does prune neurons. Source: no idea and am too lazy to fact check

Specifically in games: constantly repeating the flavor of the month insults. Typically some influencer comes up with a funny insult then for the rest of the month some kids use that one singular insult for every situation

Either Windows does a lot of it for them and they should have chosen a distro that does the same, or they're much more familiar with Windows and expecting that to translate to Linux without any time investment.

I'm convinced this is the main reason people say linux is hard and finnicky. They use windows their entire lives then boot up linux and expect it to work the exact same way, inevitably leading to some not-dones like installing some random packages downloaded from the internet (download a .deb and double click it. What could go wrong?) which then come back to bite them way later in an update.

What you find easy/intuitive is whatever you've spent most time using. In windows I get frustrated because 50 random things are happening in the background that I don't know of and there's like what, 7 different configuration apps from 5 different eras, some of which are overlapping in functionality. Programs I installed are either hopelessly out of date or when I launch them they need to spend a minute updating before I can use them.
