  • Thankfully, here, hate comments by the creator are also deleted. Zat is honorable, so I address it as well. Everyone with property should think in 30-year cycles. So here as well. That’s how colonialism works. You take the land for free. And that creates value for you. I became skeptical soon after the Gaza Strip was sealed off. None from the IDF went in. Instead, sealing off and while the bombs fell for weeks: parties, selfies. Who paid for the bombs? Wasn’t the hostage situation urgent? Also, pay attention: starvation is much worse. Especially for the children. Lasting damage. If the Palestinians are now displaced. Who will bear the cost for them? Do some research yourself. Then it’s like a slap in the face, what’s going on here.

    No. Every three years there’s an additional month to synchronize the calendar with the sol-year. So they mixed moon- and solyear.

    Years ago the world I knew used the term “Chinese New Year”. Now your term is quite more often used by media. I think there is purpose not to bring positive news from this land. Words can be weapons.

    Lunar year is an english term. And the problem is you mix other cultures with the chinese. The Chinese year starts with a lunar event, new moon, but the years are orientated by the sol. The term “lunar year” is wrong if you refer it to the chinese calendar. If you want to mix “all lunar calendars” this makes no sense beside the woke motivation. They invent names for christmas without christ. And of course chinese culture is under fire and voilà they name the biggest chinese cultural event with a new name. This can be criticized.

    “Lunar year” is a western term. This makes it difficult for me, because I don’t want to say to a chinese restaurant guy how he has to name his celebrations. A lunar calendar is from western perspective even more primitive. You can’t use it for farming, because the seasons drift through the “lunar year”. The chinese calendar is a typical farming calendar which has solved this problem. Lunisolar. Lunar the month, the year solar. If you know this lunar alone sounds arrogant or non-knowing. In my ears. In my life I only know Chinese who celebrate this. Everybody wants to know the animal of the year. There is even astrology. I don’t want to mix this with other cultures. The right-woke way is to ask the people how they name this. Then using their words. If you name it “lunar year” then it’s ok for me. But I would to know the original name in your culture. I like to know new words. Thank you for your wishes.









  • I guess this is the purpose of Mint Linux? But I think it has a terminal, emacs, python as well? Then it’s ok. A distro is only a tool for needs. I don’t like this arch-talk, how cool it is and then you need month to write your configuration. By the way: what goes quicker on a laptop: Mint with xcfe or Ubuntu with xfce? I want to have a quicker boot. At the moment Kubuntu on the machine. Too slow.
