jo, bin auch immer wieder überrascht wie von linker Seite der ÖRR als Propagandamaschine diffamiert wird. Like yo, ist nicht alles Zucker, ganz klar, aber das ist imo ein dezidiert rechtsextremen Narrativ das den Staat und die Demokratie unterhöhlt. Den Zorn verdient die Springerpresse definitiv mehr.

Well yeah but also no. I feel like Sam from Wendover went over this quite well recently: https://youtu.be/XK8hpxR_r2Y

lots of good advice here. I just want to restate: do yourself a favor and migrate your HDDs over to any solid state drive. Whether that means “classic” SSDs with a SATA-Port or M.2s is your prerogative, but in either case you’ll start wondering how you could ever stand that s pinning noise and the vibrations and the slow, slow data transfer.

Ernst gemeint: prüfe es trotzdem nochmal. die Anschaffungskosten für Balkonsolar sind dermaßen in den Keller gerauscht, es könnte sich auch für euch zumindest irgendwann amortisieren. aber wie gesagt: vorher durchrechnen.

“Out of nowhere” he says while her albums have consistently reached peak charting positions globally for the past ten years:

I clap really loudly. I cup the fingers off my right hand and bang them into the palm of my left hand. Sometimes people are annoyed by my choosing because it’s so loud. But we’re clapping? It’s supposed to be loud?

Lemmy’s bot problem is so much worse than Reddit’s.

Bester Kommentar hier bisher 😊

Sad, but I guess somewhat understandable given the R&D competitors are putting in.

I mean, you’re going back a to true/false dichotomy.

How did you jump from a discussion about opposing perspectives on a single, unknowable truth to “one must be right and everything else a lie”?

Very much this. I was an exchange student in the US in 2005 and my US history teacher (yes, their history classes are commonly split between us and “rest of the world”) exclusively worked with excerpts from Zinn.

I understood once I leafed through the official textbook. It was about as bad as you can imagine.

So yes, Zinn is far from “objective” or “neutral”. It’s a deliberate choice because

a) it’s supposed to counterbalance the terribly whitewashed school books and b) there’s a case to be made that no text, not even scientific ones, is ever truly objective or neutral because reality is a construct.

The latter is a more philosophical debate, but nonetheless an important one. Since there is no single objective truth, you’ll usually dare better by considering varying interpretations of “truth” before making your mind up.

In other words: you’ll never get the full picture, but if you assemble enough puzzle pieces you increase your chances of understanding the bigger picture, and, more importantly, you’ll gain a sense for when somebody is just off their rocker.

Kefir is a fermented dairy drink. It’s kinda viscous but also fluffy and very white, so yeah. Fitting name.

It’s already been taxed, yes, but it’s also passively generating income by investing it. You tax that income with a capital gains tax.

You can further impose a let’s say 1-2% tax on wealth above let’s say 5 million, so you only have to pay 1% on 2M if you are worth 7M.

That should be easily covered by your investing gains if you play at that level. So, in essence, no harm done to personal wealth. You just get richer less fast while urgent social and infrastructure projects receive better funding.

I think part of it is that movies are edited differently now. We’ve become used to much faster pacing, much denser storytelling and sweeping drone shots of everything, so older movies generally feel a bit lame now

I don’t understand the part about not censoring calls for genocide. I feel like calling for the death of a group of people should not be covered under free speech. There’s obviously a limit to free speech and this seems like a good example.

On the other hand, I don’t write see what uni presidents can be expected to do about something that is or should clearly be handled by govt authorities.

You might want to look into Loqseq and Appflowy. I hear the cool kids today are using notion and obsidian and these two are FOSS alternatives to those.

I mean yeah, but it’s mainly funny because I had absolutely no idea what I was looking at. The color, pattern and lighting meant I really absolutely had no idea what I was looking at. A back? A sweater? A cat? A crotch? A knee? An ass? Something else?

So yeah.
