Schrödinger being “infatuated” with a twelve-year-old girl, Barbara MacEntee, while in Ireland. He desisted from attentions after a “serious word” from someone, and later “listed her among the unrequited loves of his life.”
Remember kids: don’t idolize people. Even Nobel Prize winning physicists can be fucked up
In his personal life, he lived with both his wife and his mistress which may have led to problems causing him to leave his position at Oxford. Subsequently, until 1938, he had a position in Graz, Austria, until the Nazi takeover when he fled, finally finding a long-term arrangement in Dublin, Ireland, where he remained until retirement in 1955, and where he pursued several sexual relationships with minors.
I hate eye contact and I have a deaf friend. It’s great, because I get to look down at their hands the whole time (they always sign as well as talking with hearing peole, which is super hard to do, and apparently kinda rude with other deaf people?)
On the other hand, when I sign, I look at my hands, because I’m shit at signing.
Expensive lenses are expensive. My glasses also cost about $350 after insurance covers them. I go for all the expensive lenses and digital lens tech because my prescription is quite strong and it improves quality of life, but my vision could be corrected with the basic stuff.
Maybe your doctor can make the case to your insurance that these are medically necessary to be so lightweight. Otherwise, the improvements are a nicety, not a necessity.
Why are medical care/devices less expensive in other places, such as Europe? In large part because taxes are so high. US taxes are relatively low, meaning a different economic system and personal financial planning strategy.
My spouse is from a European nation with high taxes. It’s not all roses there. There are pros and cons to each system.
Also, see the other comment from a Scandinavian person. They seem to contradict your sentiment.

Cool. I’m thousands of dollars in medical debt. The ‘cons’ I always hear are the long wait times. I’ve had to wait months to get procedures done here in the U.S.
And yes, my case is very medically necessary. Without going into details because plenty of people have heard them way too many times, I’m close to one year without eating any solid foods.
That is on top of the neuralgia, which is mostly dealt with, but still requires me to see a neurologist. She can only see me twice a year. She’s also the only one in town.
Dude, I had no idea you were Canadian until just now. Statistically it’s much more likely you are an American on Lemmy than Canadian simply due to population numbers.
I’m not Canadian. That’s my point. I have to pay for all the stuff in that article they say you don’t have to pay for. In fact, that stuff is why we’re in all this medical debt.
Just because “I have money but I am not happy” is a true statement, that does not mean that “if you have money, you will not be happy” is a true statement.
Oh absolutely.
And yet these kinds of people keep saying money won’t buy happiness when it’s literally proven that happiness does go up as you get financial freedom before topping off at an income that meets your immediate financial needs. Then you stop getting more happy.
But I think they will never be happy because what they want isn’t tied to financial means. Look at Tim Poole and his need to be cool to skateboarders or all the Fox news hosts that worked in theater or tried to be journalists elsewhere like Tucker Carlson. Heck even Trump loves musical Theater and just wants his dead dad’s love he can’t get.
Unhappy but somehow it’s the governments fault because the replacement job and money didn’t fix them.
