  • German nationalism died with Hitler

    Oh, how I wish this to be even remotely true!

    so you claim that portuguese run around, claiming theirs is the best country?

    How about the austrians? Irish? Scotts? Danish? Polish? Czech? Croats?

    Note: I wouldn’t ask about Netherlands or nordic countries (because imho IF they’d claim that, then they just might kinda have a good point) or the swiss (they can claim similar, I just wouldn’t follow their reasoning in the slightest).

    Well, and there’s the English too…

    But still: what is a good example in your opinion?





  • I AM a European.

    I’ve never heard any German claim that this should be a good country by any means.

    “We’ve kinda got some industry” - “yeah, but china got more”

    “We’re relatively good at healtcare and social security” - “have you ever even heard about nordic countries?”

    “Uh, freedom of religion?” - “france does it better”

    “We’re claimed to be exact and punctual?” - “No, that’s the swiss.”

    “Beer and Bread?” - “That’s more like the polish?”













  • depends on the app

    you have something to access some cloud-api-stuff? yeah, probably all calls fail

    some game that uses hardware-specific things? might break too

    your average clock app or document viewer? that got a decent chance it’ll still run.

    It’s a question of how fast your OS changes and how mature APIs have gotten. Android is a lot more stable now, than it was 12 years ago.

    And if you look at truly mature OSes, like Linux or Windows, you probably can still run most apps that are multiple decades old. (For Win that means pretty much anything that was written for Win32(s) and newer - so even stuff that was around on Win 3.11)
