  • Bei mir gab es, wie auch schon die Wochen davor, wieder das gleiche:Ich bin jetzt bei Buch 4 (The Silence of the Unworthy Gods) der Arcane Ascension-Serie von Andrew Rowe angekommen.

    Ich bin einfach mit dem Fahrrad, bewaffnet mit einem Camping-Stuhl, der Hälfte meiner Camping-Kochausrüstung, Tasse und Tomatensoße-in-der-Tasse-Pulverpackung, in den Wald gefahren und habe mir dort eine ruhige, sonnige und windgeschützte Ecke gesucht.Da habe ich mich dann breit gemacht und zwei Stunden lang die Seele baumeln lassen. Hab natürlich keinen Müll hinterlassen. ;)

    Mache ich heute wieder, aber dieses Mal nehme ich nur Nüsse zum Naschen und Kakaopulver mit. :DIch muss mal schauen, was es für kleine Unterwegsgerichte gibt, die in eine Tasse passen und bei denen man nur heißes Wasser draufkippen muss. Bisweilen ist es ja immer noch so frisch, dass man es ohne etwas Heißes nicht lange aushält. Ich will aber auch nicht ewig lange irgendeine Mahlzeit zubereiten.

    Edit: Oder ich mache mir das alles schon Zuhause fertig und schleppe nur noch eine Thermoskanne mit. grübel

  • What? Automated food supply?

    BUY! BUY! BUY!

  • I like the tape. Won't hold but also won't fall apart especially if you want to remove it. The right kind of mixture to make yourself hate yourself. :D

  • he FCC chairman said Europe's regulations against US firms are "excessive" and "incompatible" with American values.

    What values? Greed?There are some extremely greedy Europeans no doubt. But the most of us pursue a happy life instead of a rich life.

    He believes that these laws (...) are suppressing free speech in the EU.

    These laws are there because companies feast on them illegally. Is this dude fit being the chairman of the FCC if he can't get that right?

    It remains to be seen how the US administration will choose to defend Big Tech against the numerous lawsuits in the EU.

    They can do exactly one thing: Nothing. The judicial branch of the EU is completely independent from the other branches, unlike the SCOTUS. Our judges don't care about what nonsense Trump is spouting.

  • The people back then lived to 60-70 years. The average life expectancy was 30-40 years because of the extremely high child mortality. Almost like half the children died before they became 10 years old. Most of them died within their first year when the body and immune system are still very weak.

  • Thank you very much!

    That was quick!

  • That escalated fast. Multiple times, too! 😲

  • Are there any services left that feature a security question? I thought that all died out years ago when 2FA was introduced.

  • The breeder of my dog gave him the name Timber vom Uckersee (Timber of Ucker lake). Yes, he was considered a noble because the breeder made sure to keep the blood line clean and that the dog showed all the features that defines this particular breed.The Ucker lake is a lake nearby. The dog was part of the 20th litter of the breeder that's why all the offspring got names starting with a t, the 20th letter of the alphabet.

    We usually called our dog just Timmi (or Timmy for English speakers). He was a cocker spaniel with red fur and lived to an age of 14.5 years. A good age for that breed (13-15 years life expectancy). Unfortunately we had to put him down. He had a disease that reduced the blood's ability to transport oxygen. By the time we discovered it all his inner organs were too damaged for him to continue living without serious disabilities.

    Now that I remember him I feel sad that I lost him.

  • In the USA something like 8% of adults have ideal metabolic health, that means 92% have a compromised immune system

    Do you have a (written) source for that? I want to see how they came up with the numbers. Should be interesting.

  • I read the news just to entertain myself. And then I ignore the content because most news are just depressing: Armed conflict here, murder there, capital offense, you get the gist.

    For several months I didn't read any news, that works too. You'll realize that most of the stuff in the tv and tabloids doesn't affect you.

    And for the third point I do whatever it takes to distract, lose in or occupy myself completely. That could be a book with a nice story or some outdoor activity. Yesterday I did some kind of mini-camping. I took my bicycle and brought a camping chair, gas stove, water and cocoa powder and rode a bit into the woods. And then I had some quiet relaxing time reading a book on my phone. The hot chocolate and a thick jacket kept me from freezing. It was only 10 °C/50 °F and a bit windy.I'll repeat that tomorrow but this time I'll switch the cocoa to tomato-soup-in-a-cup. The cocoa was too sweet for my taste.

  • Some car parts travel across the US/CAN border six to seven times. The price increase will be much higher than 25%.

    I wonder if it's true that the US car production will grind to a halt within a week as some analysts say. That would be huge!

  • I would like to see the events that made the Klingons join the Federation in the future. Raw emotions vs. compassion. Should be fun.

  • How does one use toilet paper in this 'state'?

  • Google was already shit for years. Its purpose nowadays is not to deliver whatever search results the user requested, it’s purpose is to keep the user dangling so that he clicks on one of the sponsored links - that’s money.

    And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the reason you won’t find anything anymore on Google.

    You can try DuckDuckGo. They are pretty open on what they do. The search engine is Bing and the maps come from Apple and you can chose your preferred AI from a list.

    I haven’t heard about the decentralized search engines. Are they any good? Or are they more in like a proof of concept stage?

  • Cool Aktion! 👍Erzähl dann mal, wie das so gelaufen ist. !tierwelt@feddit.org könnte ein geeigneter Platz dafür sein. Aber bitte mit Bildern! ;-)

  • Warum fragst du mich noch, wenn du mich eh hasst? Warum hast du mich noch nicht geblockt?

  • Not all of them. Some only have a hub motor.
