I am not sure you've had fiber before...

Technically true although deceptive.

All the better for you then. :)

Didn't know that but I've not rooted in quite some years because Google actively opposes it and not everything works as well. But good point. I do however stand by my hardware point. Wish they made a premium Fairphone.

Mind sharing what toothpicks? Because in here the ends of them are exceptionally thin.

Toothpick. Wood only. Never do this with metal.

Now if only the hardware wasn't subpar and the OS unusable...

I love this comment.

Assuming you work from home the real answer is that you just get up every few minutes and move. It doesn't matter what. Some squats, pullups, pushups. Even a few hundred steps works wonders.

The key is to make the barrier to entry as low as possible. Then you actually do it more often.

Besides that, find a sport you think would be fun. Just try a bunch of trial lessons or join some people you know.

I sort of agree, because no one should be shamed. The issue I have with the statement is that current "trad wife" trends are at best exclusive and at their worst completely toxic. I definitely don't want to see that either.

Let's just leave it at: let every woman choose themselves and make it as easy as possible for those who do want to do paid work.

Thanks for sharing.

I checked for Netherlands and it seems to be easily over 2k a month for fulltime care (172-240 hours).

The thing I wasn't aware of is the subsidies low income parents receive. Up to 96%. Seems to be a bit lower in practice, but still almost all is covered.

That doesn't account for high cost areas, and is dependent on income. But the conclusion seems to be that it's far cheaper than I mentioned for the end consumer.
