If you like your work? Keep working. The demographic bubble is gonna burst all over the world and that will indeed make pensions unstable.

Never. Not what you want to hear,but hear me out. Because if it safes your sanity it is worth it.

• I got my apprenticeship as a paramedic first and then went back to school to get my full A-Levels. Specialized school we have here,thankfully for these cases. The oldest one of my classmates was 52.

• I studied economics with someone who was 55 and basically had already done the job we all wanted when we graduate for 25 years. He did so so he finally would get a more comprehensive background and maybe get up the ladder once more. (Which according to linked in he did)

• I currently do another master (in a distant education setting,though) simply out of interest in the field and to broaden my CV. And you know what? I am 25 years in my field and still learned a fuckton of things, got a better network, love the research field AND got so much better at my job AND found a lot of opportunities.

• An former paramedic trainee of mine was almost 50 when he started paramedic training. He was a C level executive before and at one point had enough - he changed careers so he would not get even more depressed and is now very happy with it. And I had multiple people do that in my bubble.

Now,from my current perspective: Was it stressful? Fuck yeah. I literally cried sometimes. Was it a tough time financially? Fuck yeah. I am self employed/have a small company and I had month were making ends meet was really though due to the added expenses and the lost revenue. But it still was worth it. Because: For what it's worth we all gonna need to work till 70+x anyway to afford retirement. And that's a long time.

If that was in eastern Germany 10 years ago...that was me and I had my reasons,see above.

I had basically the same idea following a similar thread in a forum around 12 years ago.

Not FBI,but something similar from my country. Luckily I only used it for my physically seperated guest network(totally different connection)

... Thanks to Ubiquiti being asshats and not telling people about a zero day for months it got hacked and renamed into "FreeWeedAndFreeBeerIfyouringat{MyLastName}". They even replaced the background of the portal page with a carefully crafted picture explaining how they did it.

... I very much suspected the two CS students next door,especially as the range was shit and it was either them, someone with a really sophisticated array and (as you couldn't park in our street it would even be hard for a average wardriver to do so easily) and I very much rule out the 90 year old lady below us or the family who both were,well,rather non technical it seems. (He asked for help to set up his TV)

... As revenge,when one of them got a girlfriend who was as pretty as she was loud we set up a small open wifi on a mikrotik device which was just strong enough to go through one wall that was named "WeCanHearYouHavingSex" that lead to a fileserver that had a .wav in it with a five second proof of that and then Rick Ashley.

... He kindly asked for that being turned off before christmas when his parents would visit.

Lol. This is basically a US invention they simply copied 1:1.

Was about to write about Joe.

Pff,these Chinese have to copy everything American,don't they?

Yeah. Sorry. I have PFTT: Post fraction tutoring trauma. I had to tutor three teen kids math for four hours today. Kid and their friend write a test today. I will see fractions and percentages tonight in my nightmares.

Considering most(2/3-90% depemding on the sources) Ruzzians are killed by drones and artillery these days and the Russians take care of making sure none can surrender their chances are grim.

No. It's a valid system - and it gives the companies incentives. Ask MS who payed 2.2 billion by now, 9.7 Billions from google,etc.

Both have changed decisions/adopted their eco system which they earlier claimed as "impossible to change". Same goes for apple,btw.

We just reached the first step of a ladder. But each step is at least double what it was before.

Yeah. It's a fucking son of a bitch cancer. Together with Pancreastumors the ones I am most afraid of.

When I had my paramedic traning one of my instructors got one. He waited till he had the first seizure - and then drove into the next town so the ambulance crew finding him would not be "one of his own", went into the woods, called the cops to tell them what he way about to do and, well, "self removed" the whold thing with a 9mm to the head.

....little did he know I was send over that day to cover for someond who got sick. ....Nevertheless I would do the same in his situation.

Real. But I live in a pretty foresty area and just go to the neighbourhood farmer where I also get my eggs from and my poultry and it's not pricey and goes into the fireplace once it's dry enough.

He literally did similar comments DURING HIS FIRST TERM about Somalis as well.... But...people have the attention span of a TikTok Video these days.
