That’s a pretty textbook ad hominem, so I don’t think there’s much to continue here.
Have a good one, either way.
Edit: Saw that you used an alt account to downvote me twice. That’s actually kind of pitiful. You won this argument, okay champ?
My dude, you’re lost in the sauce. You edited your comment to mention the dot-com bubble after I posted but why would we even talk about that? YouTube wasn’t founded until several years later.
Why wouldn’t I talk about VC? YouTube was backed by VC a couple of months after its creation.
What are you talking about? I’m kinda speechless. In tech it’s absolutely normal to not be profitable after 3 years. Amazon, Uber, Tesla, Netflix. Just off the top of my head. You can find many more. And we don’t even need to talk about AI. Have you seen their profits?
That’s standard procedure for a start-up. You rely on investment money and focus on growth rather than profitability.
I don’t understand the nostalgia for a YouTube that was supposedly only created for our enjoyment. It never existed. It was always going to squeeze as much money out of its users as possible to satisfy its shareholders.
That’s an interesting point. Perhaps there was a time when quality was the defining metric and customer enjoyment was considered. In hindsight, this was short-lived, as other metrics became more important in order to satisfy stakeholders. My point is that this is always bound to happen in a capitalist system.
I love the illusion and enjoy immersing myself in it, but let’s not kid ourselves. It has always been about profit.
Gucke rein, wer fehlt natürlich? Bayern. Ich wurde nicht überrascht.
Team Red could really use some help. Let’s make this comeback happen!
Yeah, it’s a trend on Reddit that’s spreading (see what I did there? Heh, sex). I don’t like it at all. The punchline is either non-existent, “heh, sex” or women being horny. Just uninspired stuff. I get why the artists do it, it pays the bills. But I’m not too keen on it.
That’s a cool idea! As others, I’m not too keen on using Telegram. Would it run with other messaging apps like Signal or Threema?
Wie? War es etwa nicht dein Eindruck, dass die Sozialdemokraten zu sozial waren?
Jedes Mal das gleiche Problem, wenn sie Regierungsverantwortung haben: Mit ihrer viel zu sozialen Politik, dominieren sie die anderen Parteien und das hassen die Menschen. Ich bekomme Bauchschmerzis.
Immer diese Neider, die es dem Mittelständer nicht erlauben, die über 300 Wohnungen an seine Meute zu verschenken. Der Mehrwert, diese Wohnungen für die Mieter zu besitzen, wird hier überhaupt nicht gesehen. Was für ein tolles schützenswertes Gewerbe und so viele Arbeitsplätze, die sonst… wegfallen würden? Das muss man sich wirklich auf der Zunge zergehen lassen:
Als Begründung für ihre Ablehnung nannte die CDU/CSU-Fraktion die Notwendigkeit, im Steuerrecht auf Vereinfachung und Typisierung zu setzen. Es sei für den Erhalt von Arbeitsplätzen notwendig, Betriebsvermögen von der Erbschaftssteuer zu verschonen. Das gelte auch für Gewerbe, deren Geschäft die Vermietung von Immobilien sei.
Cool picture. What I find really ugly is not necessarily the commie blocks but the lack of any vegetation.
Does anyone know where the picture was taken? I would like to see how it looks nowadays.
Der Autor scheint uns nicht so viel zuzutrauen.
That’s more like a fever dream than a shower thought.
Ja, wild. Da macht dann einfach der Verfassungsschutz durch das Haber-Verfahren den Daumen hoch oder runter und die Betroffenen dürfen nicht wissen, warum. Das klingt nicht gerade rechtsstaatlich.
Ah, I see. Yes, I was too loose with the terminology. It was oversimplified and exaggerated for comic effect. But I can see now how that can be difficult to decipher. You won, I concede.
I’m always there, lurking in the shower.
I was really surprised about the response. I posted it right before going to bed and was too tired in the morning to respond. As you didn’t know what I was referring to let me clarify: You know how there’s water vapor all around you when you shower? You can see it on your mirror if ventilation in your bathroom is insufficient. If you now take a piss in the shower, and especially if there’s warm water in you tub that didn’t drain yet, some of the piss will also be vaporized. It’s probably more accurate to say it mixes with the vapor. I can smell that and it’s not amazing.
The response tells me not everyone experiences this. That’s probably a combination of me not drinking enough while also enjoying very hot showers with the water not draining fast enough.
I respect your curiosity and hope your life can now continue. Enjoy your next shower.
Exactly, that’s why this is such a lame take. Roughly 3/4 of all agricultural land could be restored by switching to a plant based diet.
