This includes most of the US and Europe. The sun setting at 5 pm during the winter is normal.
Most of the US is considerable more to the south than Europe. Remember that Naples, a city in the south of Europe, is on the same latitude as New York City, as city in the Northern part of the US. So you can’t easily transfer experiences regarding this from one to the other.
It is just dark in the winter in large parts of Europe, and no amount of clock fiddling is going to change that.
Where I live you can get tax exemptions for transportation costs if your distance from work exceeds a certain length.
And no, it would only incentivise spread out suburbs in car centric countries. Which is basically the US (or North America?). It works fine here on account of public transpartion, without creating suburban sprawl.

 Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you think school uniforms are a form of authoritarianism?English
3·1 day agoAlso in the US is the issue that school uniforms are universally a private school thing
As a non-American who watched The Wire, I know that is not true. So I looked it up and apparently 19% of US public schools use school uniforms (risen from 3% in the mid 1990s). Source: https://www.uniformmarket.com/statistics/school-uniform-statistics

4·5 days agoHe likes when things go boom. Also his entire life he has tried to imitate the behaviour of a mob boss (now upgraded to dictators), and he thinks this is how a mob boss/dictator would act, which is probably not wrong.
Also historically Nazi Germany fell because an incredible powerful alliance of countries fought long and hard to defeat them and in the end liberate Germany from fascism. That is one scenario we know will not happen with the US, because too many countries benefits from what is going on in the US right now.
So exactly what kind of timeline that would make these American fascists need to flee is very unclear, as they are not going to voluntarily give up their position of power.

One of them. Munch made several versions of the motif.

 News@lemmy.world•Bill Gates softens ‘Climate Disaster’ approach, says strategy needs to shift: InterviewEnglish
9·6 days agoBill Gates was recently at the meeting where all the US tech oligarchs kissed Trump’s ring. The article changes nothing about how Bill Gates is very much part of the problem, and this “change” is exclusively based on his oligarch reasons.
Seems to me that in this particular exchange the pop star has the healthier outlook than the lying techbro.





They want masked paramilitary to grab folks off the street. As long as the paramilitary isn’t grabbing them, they think it is working perfectly fine.
