It was the best Haitian barbecue they ever had!

That implies he even remembers the question at the end of his rambling, and I'm not sure that he does.

That was my first smartphone, and I absolutely loved it! Shame nothing like it ever came out again.

The logo in the bottom right is from a German satirical TV show, so "fake" is a good bet (dunno though, haven't seen it).

Und Kiel.

I recently bought a Brother Innov-IS and found it really easy to get started with. Didn't think I would enjoy sewing this much.

How I imagine this conversation went: "Look, I realize you don't want to pay for something that's free, but you have to understand that it's virtually impossible to exit this program."

The crazy thing is: If he hadn't admitted this, there wouldn't have been calls for his resignation. The Republican party is fine with spreading harmful misinformation, but admitting to it is a no-go.

Und sind diese richtig guten Maimai-Ideen jetzt hier mit uns im Raum?

Coincidentally, this is also what the French smelled like centuries ago.

Not sure I've ever seen an Arch user say that (not saying that never happened, just not anywhere I could've encountered it). It's a meme at this point.

"Incel" is more a state of mind nowadays (or a set of beliefs). Musk fits that pretty well.

Doing the Lord's work. The longer I work in academia, the more radical I become about keeping it simple.

Wer hat Bock einen Verein zu gründen, der einmal jährlich den "Goldenen Steigbügel" verleiht, als besondere Ehrung für alle Politikys, die in besonderer Weise zum Aufstieg der Neuen Rechten beigetragen haben?

Mich würde mal interessieren, ob an Warntagen eine erhöhte Zahl von z.B. Autodiebstählen beobachtet wird. Hab von Autos keine Ahnung, fände aber plausibel, dass ein echter Alarm in dieser Zeit von den meisten ignoriert wird, da ohnehin alles lärmt und blinkt.

Diese Zeitlinie ist der letzte Dreck, ich bin es so leid.

Gah, stupid ninjas cutting onions.

Republicans: "What a bad and unprepared debate that was! He didn't even get to the part about how life begins at conception and guns are more important than children!"

Baby, lass uns Pizza bestelln!

Das ist natürlich immer die Frage: Woran hat es gelegen? Das sagt man nachher natürlich immer, fragt man sich, woran es gelegen hat.

Ist so.

It's asking for a password. What do I type? Sorry if this is a stupid question, I'm new to this Linux stuff.

JFC, does this guy specialize in making rings that look like shit?

Based on this dumpster fire of a headline, I think the take-away can only be that Siemens and other train manufacturers have to start calling their trains "OMEGA RAIL" and "CHUNGUS 3000" or shit like that so it's worth a news article.

This is what "creative defeat" looks like.

"The main goal of this thesis was to not be derivative garbage like the works of Big Name et al."

Mine used to, too, but we mostly managed to train it out of him. He'd literally get in your lap and do a combat roll into this kind of thing. I think it was supposed to say "play with me". Or just cat mischief.

The Nintendo Switch has the port at the bottom with the connector built into the dock. IMO a better solution, particularly for playing handheld with the cable in.

I'd buy it.

Ja.

Look, I also left Reddit because it got worse, but this just reads like "I said something racist and people got mad" to me.

Greenwashing is a bit harsh, no? From what I've seen, Fairphone is fairly involved in the improvement of production processes and usage patterns of phones (fairer wages, safer/cleaner ressource extraction, long-term software support, easier repairability for a wide audience) to the extent that this is possible for a relatively small company. They haven't always delivered on every one of these points, but have had a pretty strong record in recent years, stronger than any other company I know of. Or maybe there are other companies that do this better or similarly well?

Ich meine das im Sinne von "den Schaden ausgleichen". Der Artikel im OP argumentiert ja, dass die CDU Schlimmeres verhindert habe. Das bezweifle ich, oder zumindest würde ich hinzufügen, dass das die negativen Effekte außer Acht lässt. Ich denke nicht, dass es unterm Strich positiv ist, die Argumentation der AfD mehrheitsfähig gemacht zu haben . Wer rassistische und antidemokratische Positionen vertritt, wählt das Original. Die "Mehrheitsfähigmachung" solcher Positionen als politisches Programm gefährdet unsere demokratische Gesellschaftsordnung als Ganze.

Historians will at some point look at this comic strip as a representation of "cringe" that predates the word that later came to describe it.

Die Frage, die ich mir trotzdem stelle: Kann dieser (indirekte) Effekt aufwiegen, dass die CDU mit der Übernahme rechtsextremer Rhetorik die AfD legitimiert und damit (direkt) Wähler:innen in deren Arme getrieben hat?

Und das sind nur die Auswirkungen auf die AfD. Die schädlichen Nebenwirkungen dieses vergifteten Diskurses auf andere demokratische Parteien sind da noch gar nicht eingepreist. Das zu beschreiben mit "die CDU verhindert Schlimmeres" finde ich völlig verkehrt.

Die CDU wären nicht die Ersten, die versucht haben, den faschistischen Tiger zu reiten, indem sie sich als diejenigen präsentieren, die die Faschisten neben sich "klein halten" können, und dabei von ihm gefressen worden sind.

I agree with some of what you say, but I think the center-left would probably be seen as more left-leaning if they weren't constantly forced to govern with a neoliberal ankle bracelet on. The popularity of the Greens would also be higher if Conservatives hadn't declared them as their "main adversary" while there are literal fascists sitting in parliament.

Come to think of it, one thing I truly despise about the current state of AI is its verbosity. You ask the stupidest question, and the response is always some multipage essay (or longer if you ask nicely) that looks all important but is composed of 90% filler and bullshit, until it ends with "In conclusion, ..." followed by the actual answer. Enough intelligence to string sentences together ad infinitum but not enough to provide actual answers that fit the question.
