Several days? Was this a siege? In any other case they’d torn down the house.

Preview works fine for me, when I open up the original it flips upside down.

Crank up that in-floor-heating! The printer’s running!

This is not nearly enough pasta to dry Italy!

And I would guess that not all, maybe not even most of them are coming by car.

Anything that cannot be made in a fire is only fow wittle wittle girls!

I agree wholeheartedly :)

Have you read the article? They’re claiming (!) that they would use ads on websites to use mic data. If you know anything about Android or IOS, you’ll know that you have to give mic permission to your browser for it to have access to anything. THEN the browser itself checks if a website needs access to your mic and you have to willingly give it. And lastly: Android indicates when your mic is hot with a green dot. So all of their claims are bs.

Come back if one of the OS developers admit to always listen on an OS level.

Thanks. Why I haven’t thought about putting my 2fa and password manger in there I don’t know.

It had a reporting system. If you reported someone for camping, the vote would be turned against you and if people agreed you were kicked. 😂

It makes absolutely no sense for advertising to switch all advertising to Spanish from a single day of recording. This would mean they disregarded ALL of the meta data they had on them. Location, things they visited, pages they visited etc. I’ve been on vacation and spoken a different language for two weeks and it didn’t change the language of my ads. It just makes no sense to do that from a single data point, when all else contradicts them being/speaking Spanish.

That means the info is gone and nowhere to be found anymore. Yeah, post it somewhere else from now on, but don’t delete your old stuff.

Yeah, not actively supporting reddit anymore is one thing, but with deleting every comment/post you basically just hurt users. Reddit doesn’t give a fuck.

You won’t believe how often I search for a problem only to find 50 "Thank you"s for a deleted comment.

Arguing that the female version makes it a second choice and then erasing it completely makes absolutely no sense. If german was a language with no difference in gender this might work, but that’s not what it is. We have female forms for most nouns so this will not work. A gender asterisk includes all genders. The argument that it puts female form second is also week as in german the emphasis of a word is usually on the last syllable.

Like it or not, our way of talking and writing is excluding people and is biasing our perception as to which things (especially jobs) are mainly male and what are female. There are enough studies about language and gender bias out there.

Words have power and we should take it seriously.

These laws are only applicable in two of Germany’s 16 states and only for state officials and authorities as well as schools. The other states mostly critize those states for infringing on equality rights. It just bans the use of gender related punctuations in written documents and school exams. It’s not well thought out.

You can still use gender neutral terms (Lehrende instead of Lehrer*innen). It’s a big deal as those states do it to cater to right-wing voters and fish them from the nazi-party AFD.

Btw Binnen-I is LehrerInnen. Other gender neutral notations are a “*”, “_” or “:”

If you ever tried to live in Munich, you don’t need a second house that’s vacant. Rent is among the highest in Europe and people in the middle class pay up to 80% of their salary for rent, it gets worse in lower income brackets. The city cannot afford to have premises vacant.

The only reasonable thing is to disassemble, sanding it down and then spray painting it. Even if you get the color right, the texture of the missing rubber coating will always make it stand out.

Fun fact: When watching the german versions of the prequels, the acting isn’t a problem anymore, as professional voice actors bring their own take to the characters and make some of it much more tolerable. Hayden was screwed by bad directing. And script of course.

That was one of my biggest revelations last year. Figuring out I have ADHD and that’s why it’s hard for me to understand people, especially in crowded and loud spaces. Sometimes I found myself simultaneously listening to music, other people’s conversations and my own conversations. Makes it quite difficult sometimes.

“Push.” said the 911 operator calmly.
