The answer depends on a LOT of things. Most importantly country of origin.
If you're from Latin America, most people won't even notice. Since we already have huge amount of Latin American immigrants, so we are used to it.
If you're from a "white" country, it's very important that you are respectful to the local culture and try to genuinely learn Spanish. This is mostly a problem with tourists instead of immigrants, but most Spaniards hate with passion when foreigners complain about things not being in English/German/french/whatever.
If you're from a "black" country, it depends on where you move to. In some parts of Spain you'll inevitably face a lot of racism. In others, you'll find groups of people that will try to protect you. But as always, there's always at least some racists.
And of course, don't do crime. But that goes for locals too.
And I think this is a global advice. But people will instantly judge if you are lazy or hard-working. If you help your local community without asking much in return, people will probably talk about how hard working you are, and even racists will probably say "for being for country X, he's a nice guy".
A billionaire cannot exist in 2 countries at the same time. It doesn't matter if his company is multinational, he isn't.
If you jail that billionaire, which is not hard as a state if said billionaire resides in your country, you can "convince" him to give even assets in foreign countries.
To anyone unfamiliar with Spain politics, it might not be even noticed.
But it is incredible that the party with most scandals and corruption (PP) claims that they'll party will do less corruption than them. Why don't the media give attention to other parties that have less corruption than PSOE instead of the masters of corruption PP?
Most legislation is not done through petitions like these.
The EU is composed of tens of countries with very different cultures. And plenty of parties.
In the US there are only 2 parties. And they mostly vote in favour of whatever their party wants.
Having multiple parties means that it is very rare for a single party to have 50% of the vote. Which means they have to make agreements constantly. Which is very time consuming.
Let's say you have parties ABCDEF. Parties A and B are big, the other small.
Party A wants to make a law. It either needs help of B, or 2 of the small parties. Parties BC are immediately opposed. So it has to convince D, E or F. D will only support it if they can pass another bill. That other bill is a deal breaker for E and F.
Now A's only option are E and F. So if they want to have that bill passed, they'll have to give E and F whatever they want. Which probably A doesn't want. So even though A is a big party, it is impossible for them to pass that bill.
So you're saying that GTA VI is only going to be used by the developers?
And how does tech companies putting AI results on every interaction of mine count as a user? I never read their bullshit, yet it's all over my screen, wasting both insane amounts of energy and valuable screen space.
Ignoring the shitty quick maths. Those are energy costs of employing people. Those programmers and artists won't stop needing AC and a computer if you get rid of the videogame industry, they'll move to another industry with AC and computers.
Is a connection between 3+ people still p2p? Or is there another term for it?
I don't know how this would work over the internet though.
On a LAN you could use multicast, but I don't think ISPs support multicast, it seems like it would be an easy way to DoS. But I honestly don't know.
So, if you can't multicast, the way to have serverless multi-user video calls would be to have a separate video feed for each receiver, which I can see using more resources than through a server that would replicate the stream to all the receivers. Of course this is dependant on distance, even without multicast it consumes more resources if everyone is in the same LAN.
I tried to make the least offensive analogy possible in order to have a logical conversation around the topic. But it still got an emotional response. I don't think you're arguing in good faith.
The second paragraph is called projection. I never made the claim that those opinions are correct because they are contrarian, yet you keep making the claim that they're incorrect because they are contrarian.
I don't understand how being contrarian or not makes an opinion less or more valid. Who decides what mainstream is? Whoever gets more upvotes? We should never ever have an opinion that will get downvoted on Lemmy? Or is it a democratically elected process? In that case, the mainstream opinion in the US in 2020 was that the best person to be the president was Donald trump. Does that make it correct?
You're yet to give any argument other than "those opinions are wrong because they are contrarian"
First of all, that's not my opinion. I'm defending the other guy. Since he's getting his opinion denied under the untrue argument that his opinion is contradictory, when it is not. See the user names.
Second point, "not supporting trans athletes because they are a small group" is not at all what I said, but you are acting as if that were what I said. Let me repeat it again so you can see the difference: you don't need to support every policy that claims to support a small subset of a group in order to claim that you support that group.
Since it seems hard to understand let me say an example. There is country "chairland" where the chairpeople leave happily. Inside chairland there is a town called "tabletown". Person A says: "tabletown people should have free access to Netflix!" And person B says: "No, I love chairpeople, but tabletown is not entitled to free Netflix". Is the claim of people B contradictory? Can't a person support chairland but not support giving tabletown free Netflix?
And yes, everything in that original comment made by the other guy are opinions. "Trans women should compete in women leagues" is not a fact, doesn't matter how progressive you are, it is under every definition of the word: an opinion.
You are free to have any opinion you want, I don't believe in thought crimes. I don't know why you place such importance on "contrarian". Is someone that has an opinion different than yours a contrarian? Are contrarian opinions not valid? Therefore, are opinions different than yours not valid?
The thing is, you can look at the image a few seconds more and notice that there are plenty of cars obstructing the sidewalk more than the bike.
