So there’s no sky bears in Antarctica then?

Die alte Glühbirne hat ja im Ofen auch einen Wirkungsgrad von nahezu 100% was nicht Licht wird macht halt den Ofen wärmer, der ja auch mit Strom geheizt wird (meistens).

Most people die from heat way before water starts to boil though. And we also don’t freeze solid at 0°C, although it is pretty cold, I’d say that end fits slightly better.

Useful idiot? That’s a new one :D

Die gelben Warnungen vom DWD sind tatsächlich meistens super egal, ich lese die eigentlich eher als Info. Es gibt aber auch andere Farben die deutlich seltener vorkommen und die ich dann auch automatisch ernster nehme.

Man hätte die gelben Dinger auch einfach nicht Warnungen nennen müssen…

They must’ve really done a number on you, huh?

Maybe look for governments trying to switch from Microsoft to open source alternatives for their digital infrastructures.

Not all of the European ones are trying to do that, but the ones that are, probably need skilled people to do so.

I drink the same cup of coffee everyday, and I deliberately limited myself to one cup when I started drinking coffee.

I’m one of the trans kids adults, I’d be fucked anyways. Just wanted to illustrate that being invaded, if you welcome it or not, is usually a pretty rough affair.

War is brutal, I don’t know if I would be willing to suffer through one, just for stuff to be slightly better afterwards, maybe. Provided I had the choice in the first place ofc.

Was there any DRM for the ds games beyond the physical media being difficult to read without a console?

I also don’t want to build gallows, it doesn’t matter who hangs really. But if someone else is building gallows to hang me from, I won’t be watching idly.

I’ll at least have to try to resist, if I wouldn’t I’d might as well hang myself now, or at least when the struggle gets to much to bear.

Germany’s government usually only does e-services kicking and screaming.

Yeah but any invasion probably pushes half of the country over the edge before the war would be over.

I wouldn’t wanna risk death and destruction for a mere potential 4" further from the edge.

The vast majority of Chinese citizens believe the government represents their interests

I don’t think that the belief of being represented is a good metric for democracy or actual representation.

It might be that the Chinese government is doing pretty good in that regard, but the only thing that metric is actually saying is that people are not disillusioned. Wether that’s because there is no illusion in the first place or the government is just good at selling itself can’t be seen from that data. Although most likely it’s a mixed bag, as per usual in life.

Nein, denn ich werde nichts unternehmen um deinen Verstand zu ändern.

I haven’t seen this one yet, what a great read, thank you.

In my dreams I’d be running an unprofitable bar out of my other living room. (I don’t have another living room)

I got my diagnosis while going to an ambulant psychiatry, and bringing my suspicion up there is something that really paid off.

I didn’t have to jump through all of the hoops, and they did most of the paperwork for/with me.

I still had to do the assessment ofc, but I just had to ask.

Not sure about that, if you’re empathetic, have sound morals or can think for yourself, you are probably out.

But decent people probably wouldn’t apply over their dead bodies, so they’ll hire anyone who is stupid, desperate, or asshole enough to apply.
