Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•I really don't understand how people have 200+ guests at their weddings.
3·14 hours agoYou invite the people you want to be there. That applies to both you and your soon to be spouse. It also applies to your parents if they’re paying (and sometimes even if they’re not). It’s also a great excuse to see people that you haven’t seen for a long long time.
It’s also extremely normal to invite family.
Now double the number because most of those people will bring a plus one, and add 20% cause that’s children that will come (unless you say no to kids which is becoming more popular).
Great, now your list of 20-30 people is over a hundred.
Of course you can have smaller weddings, but you will have to explain a lot to a lot of people, including family.
————
To give an example, I invited my brother, my two sisters, my parents, and my grandparents to my wedding. I also invited some coworkers and friends, I think like 6-10 I can’t remember.
My wife had even fewer friends to invite. About the same size family. But her parents wanted to invite several people we had never ever met before.
We had 140 people. The numbers sound small up until the minute you start writing invites. Then you realize just how many people “have to come”.

Technology@lemmy.world•Former Microsoft VP says Microsoft missed the AI wave like the internet and mobile, as Copilot scales back in Windows 11English
23·2 days agoYeah good read. I don’t agree that Microsoft isn’t dying though. They are, because people and companies alike are tired of other corporations throwing them under the bus. So many people are realizing that the companies don’t want what they want, and it kills their business or happiness.

3·4 days agoDude…. That’s literally what the U.S. is doing with their subsidies. Why the fuck do you think we sell fords in China, where they don’t care about trucks at all. That extension of power is literally exactly what the U.S. has done for a century, hence all the issues we’re seeing right now.

Dankjewel, ook geen koekjes?
Question for you (completely off topic from your conversation with the other person). How believable is this story without broodje hagelslag being served? I need to know how accurate my Dutch lessons are.











But that’s not how it works. The Supreme Court just interprets the laws as “unconstitutional” no matter how clearly laid out they are. So passing of laws doesn’t matter anymore, and neither does precedent.
