    Ideally, supervision over most non critical sectors would fall to randomly drafted, single term committees of the people, think jury duty except better compensated and obviously with bureaucratic resources available to enable these committees to fulfil their role adequately.

    Now this isn’t suited for everything, but in either system any true oversight is done by the people, not the state.


  • Pretty sure that depends entirely on the individual. Since being deaf (or blind for that matter) isn’t as binary as it appears there are various degrees of hearing impairment. Perhaps one person is completely deaf, while another is still able to perceive certain frequencies, and yet another just needs it to be really fucking loud but if it is they hear just fine.

    From my personal experience with a nearly deaf acquaintance they are using a special kind of hearing aid they can tie into their devices via Bluetooth. So they have the sound sent directly to the device specifically configured to allow them to hear.

    What annoys me personally about it (to the point that i blocked the community) is that it is mandatory. That’s not humor, or funny, that is weird performative scripted humor. I often felt reminded of carnival speeches.

    I’d also argue that it isnt very successful in clearing anglicisms from the german vernacular when it is all about making the most incorrect and cryptic literal translation imaginable to the point that nobody could understand unless they are well versed in those anglicisms.
