DandomRude@lemmy.worldOPto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How can children be introduced to digital technology and the internet in a playful way? At what age is this appropriate? And how can this be done without exposing children to all the negative aspects?English4·16 days agoYes, sooner or later it’s probably not a good idea to keep kids away from the internet.
My little niece is still way too young at 5, but I’m already thinking about it because at some point she’ll come into contact with the internet anyway.
That’s why I’m asking here — I’m already trying to gather some good ideas for a few years down the line.

It’s not about my daughter, but about my niece, but I’ll keep that in mind when she’s old enough.

For me, it’s not about my daughter, but about my little niece, who just turned five.
When we’re together, we go out to the woods, to the lake, to the playground, to the bookstore, the museum, to the zoo, or something like that.
Until further notice, I have no intention of putting her in front of a screen.
I’ve just planned that at some point, when my niece is much older, I might build a weather station or an irrigation system with her using a Raspberry Pi or something like that.
But that’s still a long way off.

DandomRude@lemmy.worldOPto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Will the US soon be a dictatorship or autocracy?English2·19 days agoAnd that is what concerns me. I’m from Germany btw - it feels almost like a flashback from history class.

DandomRude@lemmy.worldOPto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Will the US soon be a dictatorship or autocracy?English7·19 days agoI’m aware.
What I am concerned about is whether undesirable citizens will soon simply “disappear,” as is the case in Russia, for example.
DandomRude@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•German word for "person you don't want to become like", probably from a Vonnegut book?English18·23 days agoThe word you are looking for is probably “Niemandsvorbild,” which means “nobody’s role model”.
It is a made-up word that is apparently sometimes attributed to Kurt Vonnegut, but it probably wasn’t coined by him. It doesn’t actually exist in the German language, but it is still easy to understand.
More common would be “Negativ-Vorbild” (“negativ role model”) or “Antiheld” (“antihero”), although the latter describes a likable but imperfect protagonist in a work of fiction.
There was indeed an explosion in this true story, but…
“The blast blasted blubber beyond all believable bounds.”
