after I translate something in a new language I haven't before, it still doesn't appear as downloaded (...) I wonder what the difference between the "partial" language files and the full download is
Possibly something @gregtatum@fosstodon.org could answer, if he has time?
Oh Germans do drop parts they don't like. For example, they drop the Gute- from Gutemorgen.
Ha I mean, that situation is indistinguishable from one where you don't get a pension and your salary is the same, but sure :P
You do miss out on the tax benefits that employer-provided pensions give you, but in many cases that's a fine trade-off.
Still, the actual point I wanted to make (but didn't) stands: most of us can't really switch our pension funds, which is a bit of a shame, because it means we can't "vote with our wallet" for a pretty significant chunk of our wallet :( If my pension fund decides to invest in cluster bombs, I'm investing in cluster bombs...
Haha no worries
Ha, does that mean they simply don't give you a pension? Or is it the case that you pick one and they handle it?
But yeah, sounds like it's specific to your company, unfortunately.
Oh OK, yeah when I said "we", I meant Dutch people - as far as I know Dutch people aren't able to choose our own pension funds.
Cool! So how do you do that? If I go to e.g. the ABP site, I see no way to sign up. (Both ABP and BPF Bouw are sector-specifc too, I suppose, maybe that's the issue? But looking at a more generic pension provider, they mention either being part of HR, or self-employed...)
There's always talk about that (see alternative 2), but that could block packaging core apps as Flatpaks.
I don't think we really have the freedom to choose our own pension funds, do we? Possibly if you're self-employed.
You're not just wasting your time by commenting - you're wasting ours.
