It is really baffling how Israel is commiting war crime after war crime, inflicting destruction, death, and suffering on a systematic scale, and we’re implicitly applauding them for that. And also actively supporting that with such weapon deals. WTF?!
This has long turned from mere targeted defensive operations into an unjustified invasion. Netanjahu is wanted for war crimes by the international court of justice. A court that we Germans supposedly respect and adhere to. But the actions our shitty government is taking speak a different language and one must be a special kind of highly brain washed to not see that.
I wouldn’t go as far as to equate this to Nazis, but one does start to wonder whether we have traded in one kind of racism for the other. I do not have many more explanations otherwise. Fear of diplomatic issues with Trumpistan? I do no longer understand the motive here.

I have been dreaming of a TLoZ movie since I was a child. However, as most video game adaptions, I expect this will be rather shitty. At least I try to. To keep the level of disappointment low.

Now you are going to start a nerdy discussion whether Link really can’t talk, doesn’t want or like to talk or does indeed talk, even though not directly shown usually in the games.

There is plenty of reason to assume that he actually can talk fine, it was just omitted for convenience or immersion in the games. It was implied often by the dialogues thoughout various games.

Official mangas show him talking, dialogue options, or that e.g. Zelda learns Links name when asking him in OoT imply this as well.

What always triggers feelings of cosmic horror is the question: “Whom is this reported to?”

Why can’t we just have it help a little and still use our own skills?

Because uhm… profits and reduce value of human labor.

That’s okay. We’re not on reddit and just have a lighthearted chat without corporate interests in it.

Sounds like a usefull skill for the next all you can eat buffet.

Thank you!

Veritasium made a video talking about IQ tests, their validity and so on. https://youtu.be/FkKPsLxgpuY

One of my key takeaways: IQ tests have some validity as a diagnostic tool for asessing cognitive disabilities or illnesses, but they should not be taken as serious and significant as many less informed people seem to do.

Pragmatist: I’m thirsty, give me the fucking bottle.

I suppose GitHub Copilot is meant, which is a different thing.

What are we seeing here?

If my quick maths has the correct assumptions, then we can store 225 Petabytes of data in the balls.

Human sperm contains about 3 million base pairs (haploid genome).
Each base pair of DNA (A, C, G, T) is encodable with 2 bits.
3 million * 2 bits / 8 (to convert to bytes) = 750 MB.
Using a rough and imprecise average of 300 million sperm cells stored in testicles, we get:
300 million * 750 MB = 225 PB.

Plenty of space for your savegame data!

Yes, I know some of these words and concur.

That looks like a fluffy gray round bread.

I suppose the times are reading times. Not understanding times. And especially not ‘pondering about how this will fuck me in the ass one day’ times.

That should be illegal.

CDU is a center-right party. In recent times even more right.

Strawberries are not berries (but aggregate accessory fruits). Cucumber, watermelon and pumpkin belong to the same family of plants. Tomatoes are fruit. Well botanically, vegetables do not exist anyway. Vegetables are a social construct. Also, wheat is a kind of grass. Isn’t our world beautiful?

No it’s a new food trend, haven’t you heard? It’s called “deconstructed food”, where they just throw the raw ingredients at you and leave it up to you to do the actual work. At the same time they sell it at a premium price brainwashing you into believing this is a new high end dining experience. /j
