  • Echt. Soo kurz davor, es zu verstehen, aber dann steht leider das eigene Gehirn im Weg!

  • Another fear campaign that ultimately aims only at marketing.

    The AI bubble will burst, and it won't end well for the US economy.

  • Jup, many drugs have a market price similar to gold, so better invest into that, they can always be sold...

  • They're part of the French crown jewels and had been acquired by the Louvre in 1985 so they were kept in (and stolen from) the owner's house.

  • Guter Hinweis. Es gibt aus gutem Grund ja auch Tierschutzgesetze.

  • Auch bei einem Haustierunfall mit einem Auto werden Tiere rechtlich gesehen als Sache behandelt, das ist dann Sachbeschädigung.

  • This looks much nicer than the edited one, which is just oversaturated.

  • No, a touring bike has a luggage rack. Gravel bikes typically are naked.

  • I think to dismiss the search for basic knowledge as a mere personal interest misses the point. If people don't even know about such things like that chips are made from potatoes, that is a warning sign – it's a matter of lacking general education and too many people not caring about their own actual ecosystem and dependencies.

  • Oh, yes? They also have ‘Paradeiser’! (Tomatoes)

  • I consider it important that if I am consuming a produce regularly to know what exactly I'm eating, what it is made from and where does it come from. Because the stuff I'm eating becomes a part of me. And also because I am regularly spending money for that so I will inform myself about the details of a product.

    It's not about those peanuts, that's part of understanding one's own life and the contexts of life in which one is involved. And I think it is a problem that many people are consumers who are very alienated from these life contexts and no longer understand how they are actually connected to the world. That's one reason why illusions can thrive.

  • Oh, that I never heard. But I always lived in the North.

  • No no, onion rings are from the onion. We're talking potato chips here.

  • I wonder what people guess what french fries are made from...

  • Yes, okay, guessing the origin from the name can be somewhat misleading. But the striking thing for me is that people do not know and do not bother to ask themselves where a product that they consume every day or every week comes from. That's ignorance.

  • In German, potatoes are also called ‘Erdäpfel’ although that is considered as outdated and somewhat funny.

  • In German language they are called ‘Erdnüsse’ (Ground Nuts), so it is more obvious where they grow.

    But since the climate doesn't (yet) allow to grow them here, maybe many people don't know much about their origins either.
