gendarme from “gens d’armes” to “gens d’ubuntu” (people of ubuntu) which, pronounced quickly would become “gendbuntu” is ok for an os name for gendarmerie

☞ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selective_perception

Selective perception is the tendency to not notice and more quickly forget stimuli that cause emotional discomfort and contradict prior beliefs. For example, a teacher may have a favorite student because they are biased by in-group favoritism. The teacher ignores the student’s poor attainment. Conversely, they might not notice the progress of their least favorite student. It can also occur when consuming mass media, allowing people to see facts and opinions they like while ignoring those that do not fit with particular opinions, values, beliefs, or frame of reference. Psychologists believe this process occurs automatically.

Selective perception has roots in cognitive psychology, where it is studied as a fundamental part of how individuals filter and process information based on biases, expectations, and past experiences. It is closely related to concepts like confirmation bias—favoring information that aligns with one’s beliefs—and cognitive dissonance, the discomfort of holding conflicting thoughts, both of which shape perception. Its applications extend beyond psychology, playing key roles in marketing (shaping consumer focus), politics (influencing voter perception), and mental health (understanding biases in disorders), highlighting its impact on both individual behaviors and societal trends.

depending on how you look, what your hair & skin colour is, you may be checked “randomly” while you’re walking home or when you’re crossing borders on a train. If your ID isn’t valid, they won’t just “not care about it”

that polite policeman passing you by with a “good day” would wake me up on the train to check harass me to see if i’m hiding who knows what in my testicles 🤬

Maybe it’s just personal experience

your experience doesn’t reflect Europe, it is a commentary about what you see in the mirror

you don’t get your minerals from water, you get them from what you eat.

You can drink distilled water if you compensate for the possible demineralization.
If you think that by drinking distilled water, you’re missing out on all the forever chemicals and pesticides; you can still go lick a car tire and be done with it.

in other words: Ketamin

thanks for this information. Next time i see this I won’t be confused

Please allow me this opportunity to jump in and complain about the minority, but not insignificant number, of people that don’t seem to be aware that that is even an option (just taking your foot off of the gas/accelerator to slowly decelerate).

😂 I feel your pain

it’s forbidden to use rear fog lights under rain (it’s more confusing than helpful)

if you live somewhere dry, that’s not a concern. But here it rains 1 day in 3
