    Bruges for the (somewhat cliché and touristy, but for good reason) medieval vibe. Ghent or Antwerp for hipster cities. Don't underestimate Brussels too, it's a bit tougher to love but there's loads of stuff to do.

  • Why 🤷‍♂️ do users 👨‍💻 dislike 👎 the use ✅ of emojis 😀 on Lemmy 🐭?
  • Mysteriarch Mysteriarch 2mo ago 100%

    Overuse of emojis can also really be annoying for people using screen readers. They clapping hands get clapping hand to clapping hands hear clapping hands something clapping hands like clapping hands this. So it's also an accessibility issue.

  • Another View - Throw It Away [new wave] (1980)
  • Mysteriarch Mysteriarch 2mo ago 100%

    I mean, where to start? Try a new wave playlist somewhere - there's lots of well known songs that you'll recognize and start branching out from there.

    You're welcome! Happy I shared it then

  • Airport in Deurne gets new environmental permit despite nearly 6,000 objections
  • Mysteriarch Mysteriarch 3mo ago 100%

    Despite loads of protest actions (including one of the largest civil disobedient actions in our country in december with Code Rouge-Rood), multiple negative opinions, a possible building infraction still tied up in court, promises since the seventies, lying in the middle of a living area, a huge financial burden and much more... they get a non-expiring (!) license.

    Is dat sinds een paar jaar niet dezelfde site? Of toch eigenaar. Probeer 's en zie of het werkt ;)

    The cynicism of centrist politics is just astounding.

  • Victoria 3 - Dev Diary #110 - Building Ownership & Foreign Investment
  • Mysteriarch Mysteriarch 7mo ago 100%

    It's nice that they don't shy away from overhauling existing systems completely (instead of tacking on new systems).

  • Dries Van Langenhove given 1-year prison sentence
  • Mysteriarch Mysteriarch 7mo ago 100%

    Unfortunately, it's the same conundrum as with the Pano report: should we expose them or not? Should we give them attention that they can use or not? Not exactly sure if there's a good answer to that actually. The effects are a result of the way society thinks of these types: in a healthy, democratic society this wouldn't boost his popularity, on the contrary...

    I'm quite content with the verdict, especially his revocation of his civil rights, which seems apt and proportionate because of his contempt of democracy.

  • Flemish Digimeter report: Young people spend almost an hour and a half a day on TikTok

    There's enough posts on Lemmy to spend 4 hours a day at? Or do you just stare into the void while on Lemmy?

  • Mysteriarch Mysteriarch 8mo ago 100%

    Niet alleen de N-VA, maar quasi alle andere centrumpartijen lopen elkaar overhoop een antwoord te bieden op de issues die VB aan draagt, terwijl ze zelf natuurlijk de agenda kan bepalen.

  • SLRPNK community discussion - March 2024
  • Mysteriarch Mysteriarch 8mo ago 87%

    I don't see why it wouldn't fit here. There's significant overlap between anarchism and solarpunk. Maybe there's some other leftwing instance where this community would also fit (or maybe better), but that doesn't matter that much due to the federated character. All this regardless of what my stance on voting is btw.

  • Meta tests cross-posting from Facebook to its Twitter/X competitor, Threads
  • Mysteriarch Mysteriarch 8mo ago 81%

    Many people have purposefully moved away from Big Tech platforms, often because they cause them harm. Who are you to judge their defederation - which is a core feature of the Fediverse btw - as laughable? Every instance is free to decide their own policies, that's the whole point.
