Personally i don’t mind the communism as much (I share many of its beliefs and goals) as the tankieism.

No, China and Russia are not role models but hostile actors. No, their imperialist bullshit and human rights violations or straight up war crimes aren’t justified because the west did a thing that one time and it was also evil. No, the russian kleptocracy and chinese state capitalism are not socialism or communism.

Let me preach you the gospel of sleeping twice a day for 4-5 hours. I used to have a real slump around (after)noon to the point that i would fall asleep sitting in a chair, naturally resulting in back/neck pain. Now i just take a nice long nap whenever i feel like it, waking up to a refreshed mind.

… are there?

Seems crazy that official summer lasted until just now, wow. Didn’t realize that

I still wish we would adjust our calender system by a few months, so the seasons align better with each quarter.

Is… is it summer? we are about to have fucking october.

Ideally, supervision over most non critical sectors would fall to randomly drafted, single term committees of the people, think jury duty except better compensated and obviously with bureaucratic resources available to enable these committees to fulfil their role adequately.

Now this isn’t suited for everything, but in either system any true oversight is done by the people, not the state.

Wow.

“always” in this case is when you have two or more gpus in your system, which limits the ability to “just” run a vm considerably.

My condolences… do you guys like, work at night? 44C sounds completely intolerable to me lol

Fucking 33C today here in germany. I hope every climate change denier has to spend a week doing manual labor in this insanity

The US didnt have to account for the likelihood of russian psyops and election interference destabilizing the country during these critical times though.

Twitter had a tweeting bird. Mastodon has a, well, tooting mastodon.

🤨 you will probably want to ask your tutor for your money back.

“Shmatterling” is likely the closest sounding english approximation.

I am not a court of law. I am not asking for them to be killed or even harmed beyond their sentences either, this is purely a moral assessment. The convicts aren’t just petty thieves, all hardened criminals or worse. I don’t have to want them to die, but I also don’t have to care if they do.

Would you lose any sleep if either of them died for any reason?

Why yes not all of them gang raped a little girl but all of them are convicted felons. If that plane were to crash the only things of value lost would be the lives of the flight personnel.

i have a very sensitive nose, and let me tell you i have not met a single person who says of themselves they don’t smell and actually don’t, they absolutely do. We are just used to our own and dont register it unless it gets intense.

I’m not saying you should bathe in perfume or obsessively rinse your scalp with bleach, just that if people go several days without using soap on themselves I 100% always smell them. For hair it isn’t much different.

What annoys me personally about it (to the point that i blocked the community) is that it is mandatory. That’s not humor, or funny, that is weird performative scripted humor. I often felt reminded of carnival speeches.

I’d also argue that it isnt very successful in clearing anglicisms from the german vernacular when it is all about making the most incorrect and cryptic literal translation imaginable to the point that nobody could understand unless they are well versed in those anglicisms.

If you do not apply some sort of (proven) cleaning agent to your hair on a reasonably frequent basis, i dont care how in touch with nature and your primal self you are, you stink. If you dont want to deal with the maintenance cut it off, rocking the wrecking ball aesthetic is pretty great actually.

it is only me_irl in name though, it is a general meme / conversational community with the obnoxious (and over used to death) in joke that is zangendeutsch.
