  • Illuminatus. You mean the Illuminatus Trilogy, by Shea and Wilson, and by "a few years", you mean 51.

    This is Illumantis:

    I sometimes think about how the attacks on the WTC were a distraction from those on the Pentagon and what they were trying to free and how today's world seems to have started that day.

  • Ze German nation can no longer afford zis Lifestyle-Nichtpimmeling. Everybody vill need to pimmel 120 hours a week at least and until age 85 if vee vant to preserve our prosperity.

  • dialed.gg: a colour guessing game with a daily challenge

    Jump
  • UK: hey, could people who use VPNs please tell us who they are exactly so we know they're not circumventing this other law? ... No? Because excellent reasons? ... Oh...

    Merz: vee don't like not knowing ze name of ze person who is calling us 1 Pimmel. it is vital vee know vat everybody is doing at all times on zis new sing, zis new land vee haff just discovered. because reasons.

  • Admittedly I know too little about mechanical engines but I'm pretty sure they all need some kind of lubricant to work. /UmAckchually

  • German and paywall. You may want to find a source that is more easily accessible.

  • Best kind of correct.

  • It's on the first results page for "whetstone", you're not sneaky.

  • Ich krieg immer Ausschlag, wenn von "zu Hause unterrichten" die Rede ist. Meine Eltern sind (waren) Lehrer, meine Mutter hat nach meiner Geburt aufgehört zu arbeiten, konnte mir also bei Hausaufgaben helfen, womit ich schon privilegiert war, aber tatsächlichen Unterricht hätte auch sie mir nicht ersetzen können. Einige wenige Renaissance-Gebildete, die sich in allem inklusive Pädagogik auskennen, die können womöglich ihren Kindern eine umfassende Bildung bieten und dann ist das Ergebnis durch den 1:1-Unterricht vermutlich auch besser (wenn man mal den sozialen Aspekt ausblendet). Darauf aufbauend Heimunterricht generell erlauben zu wollen ist ... ich sag mal, von den Rechten unüberraschend.

  • Ah, so the tricky thing is to find the balance between weight of the drone and the weight of the solar panel and its capacity, yes? I thought it sounded like "wow, look what solar power can do", as if the actual source of the energy made any difference :)

  • This boat can move with the power of wind alone, just using this big sheet! No motor or oars necessary! Just don't bring it out on a windless day.

  • I honestly fail to see how this is surprising? Why shouldn't a drone be able to that? (Genuinely asking)

  • Well yes, don't listen to people who say, "this is THE solution and everything else is nonsense."

  • I know, I'm confused about the spine because there should be a turn somewhere but there..... isn't? And the lines indicating left and right of spine should end up the other way around but they don't and I think it's my own drawing who works for confuse-a-hooman.

  • I see through you. edit45(6?53?): i don't see through you.

    Edit: wait. I can do better.

    Edit2: second version. Maybe better?

    Edit3: wtf is that fucking spine doing?

    Edit4: i think i've had a visit from confuse-a-hooman.

  • They even got Mr Beast, excellent point.

  • I'd rather live out in the woods on my own than be forced to work a job that actively harms my mental health.

    And admittedly, I know too little about Marx but I'd be surprised to learn that he was in favour of mindless work for no purpose other than to tick that "has job" box.

  • I'm not saying it's forever impossible, I'm saying I currently don't trust these technologies to operate autonomously in a context where lives are at potential risk and they'll need to prove beyond the shadow of a doubt that they can do so reliably before I start trusting.

  • So the goal is simply to tick everybody's "has job" box, not such unnecessary things as "earns enough to afford food and shelter" or "is fulfilled by job" (edit:) or even "has useful job".
